13, Won Outright -2, Von First Innings -3, Drawn -3, Lost First Innings -4, Lost Outright After First Mnings Lead-1 25.* 5A REPORT Played -13, won outright -2, von first innings -3, drawn -3, lost first innings -4, lost outright after first mnings lead-1. Points -40 It was the usual season -* the constant loss of players, the games lost froti handy positions, the games won from seemingly hopeless situations (outright vs UNSW "A" after scoring 54 on first innings, first innings win vs N.Dist "B" after being 9-143 chasing 206) and the inevitable watering of the pitch on the wrong Saturday mornings (vs Vfeverley). The team were always a semi-final prospect until it became numerically urpossible going into the last match of the season. Ill-luck played its patt- washed out on second day having dismissed Gordon for 98, losses to Cumberland A and Sutherland each by one wicket. Three players need special mention. Firstly Greg Svords v^ose 35 wickets this season in 5th grade took his tally to 100 wickets for the Club at an average of near 10. Suddenly the selectors saw not a leg-spinner with a twitchy manner, but a player whose genuine talent had too long been iHinoticed. Greg went onto 3rds where he also performed well. Next Joe Goncalves whose hat-trick dxoring the season was an appropriate reward for his effort and enthusiasm.... the final wicket in the hat-trick, incidentally, was a caught and bowled by Joe way of a rebound from the fingers of Dave Delamarta. Finally Mark Connellan who is perhaps the most enthusiastic player in the Club practising as he does on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays (and by Saturdays is wrecked!?). His efforts against Northern Districts and UNSW "A" were match winning. Perhaps the most notable win was over North Sydney. Shifting them for 97 in their first innings, Peter Anderson and Geoff Keighran slashed off 126 in quick time. On the second day Norths stone-walled to the tune of 122 runs off 62 overs (Malicki taking his best ever of 8-52 and Gresham taking four good catches). With 10 overs to play and 78 runs to get, Geoff again plundered the attack and we won on the second last ball. This exciting win was not all that was remarkable in the match - we also saw our only official unpire for the season. At first we thought our friend had strayed from an advertisement for Kentucky Fried as he possessed a remarkable siinilarity to "the Colonel", but we found that, despite strange "wide" calls, this was not so and he performed admirably. The gaite against our brother fifth grade side proved an anticlimatic end to the season and to the tradition of recent past encounters, as it was doninated by the pitch and the bowlers. After the "A"'s were dismissed for 48 (the highlight being a patient (very) 2 (sic) by Schwartz in 75 minutes) the "B"'s succumbed for 36. From a disasterous 6 /8 in the second innings (Schwartz again featuring - run out off the first ball) we recovered to 50 but, led by a great stone-walling effort by Ganno (18 in 90 minutes) the "B"'s managed to win by three wickets. So a very usual season! Best batting; G.Keighran 90, R.Parker 79*, D.Morgan ' 65, L.Schwartzkoff 54*, D.Dellamarta 53, J.Goncalves 50, P.Palesy 50, J.Malicki 49, P.Anderson 47.

Points -50. Position in coipetition - 5th. This team, as the match results indicate, showed great inconsistency during the past season. This inconsistency was due in part to changing personnel and captainsr During the season the side experienced three phases: (i) early season- vy^ere the team was strong after initial gradings and the players performed well. At this time the side beat UNSW "A" and went close to beating Bankstown (both finalists). (ii) mid-season - v^iere captaincy changed and the Club underwent its usual seasonal player shortage. Here the team was badly organised and some players performed intolerably poorly. A "low" light was a 175 run outright loss to lowly Waverley. (iii) end-of-season - v^ere the side made an almost successful charge to the semi-finals, gaining 32 points in the last 4 games. Here each player performed to the utmost of his ability in a team that combined well and had an infectious spirit. This success was due in no small part to the quality and variety of our bowling attack (two orthodox medi\im-fast, one swing, one right arm spinner, one left arm spinner, one wrist spinner) which was able to ejqsloit the vagaries of all pitch and weather conditions. Other coninents; va) batting; as the averages show, the batting appeared to be poor. In part this was so. However the problem was exacerbated by many poorly-prepared pitches (St.Pauls excepted). Often technique was useless, it being percentage cricket to "slog". (b) player dedication; the success of the 4th Grade and relatively better performances of 5th grades (and 1st grade at the end of the season) to other teams can in part be reflected in practice attendances and, in some cases, to punctuality at games. It is no point talking about compulsory practices, they must be irtplemented. (c) Club organisation; under the energetic control of Damon Ridley, the Club appeared about the best organised I liave seen, the SB's thank Hark Sewell for organisation of barbeques each match, the ladies for the afternoon teas, and the Sports Union for general assistance. (d) "Betv^en the Covers"; it was disappointing that the Club's publication appeared only very infrequently. It is a valuable source of feedback for selectors, and players, as well as increasing player motivation (if only to see how badly Eardley Lieversz is going). (P.S,. I think there is no truth in the rumour that Eardley's surname will be changed to REVERSING after displaying some incredible footwork against one T.Osborne in a 3rd Grade match). selections; there was a greater rationale in selections this season. A contributing factor was that under Colonel Phil Pike selection meetings were well co-ordinated. (f) player conrnents; the following statistics reflect performance. I hope that many players have gained from their initial ejqjerinece in Grade cricket. Most players,with continuing application, should tiim out to be very usefiiL cricketers in the seasons to ccxne. 28. 5B BATTING Inn n.o. [.S. Agg Ave Cts R.O. C. Rodger 15 2 61* 233 17.92 8 P.

  • PCB Men's T20 Matches Playing Conditions for Domestic
    PCB Men’s T20 Matches Playing Conditions For Domestic Tournaments 2020/21 (Incorporating the 2017 Code of the MCC Laws of Cricket - 2ndEdition 2019) Effective 3oth September 2020 These Playing conditions shall be read with the PCB Almanac 2019-20 and will apply to all PCB Domestic tournaments with the exclusion of HBL PSL. All matches will be played under the Laws of Cricket 2017 Code (2nd Edition – 2019) and ICC Standard Playing Conditions as adopted hereunder. These Playing Conditions will operate based on the underlying principle that the PCB organized Domestic Tournaments will take precedence over any privately organized league(s) or competition(s). Preamble - The Spirit of Cricket Cricket owes much of its appeal and enjoyment to the fact that it should be played not only according to the Laws (which are incorporated within these Playing Conditions), but also within the Spirit of Cricket. The major responsibility for ensuring fair play rests with the captains, but extends to all players, match officials and, especially in junior cricket, teachers, coaches and parents. Respect is central to the Spirit of Cricket. Respect your captain, team-mates, opponents and the authority of the umpires. Play hard and play fair. Accept the umpire‟s decision. Create a positive atmosphere by your own conduct, and encourage others to do likewise. Show self-discipline, even when things go against you. Congratulate the opposition on their successes, and enjoy those of your own team. Thank the officials and your opposition at the end of the match, whatever the result. Cricket is an exciting game that encourages leadership, friendship and teamwork, which brings together people from different nationalities, cultures and religions, especially when played within the Spirit of Cricket.

  • Race and Cricket: the West Indies and England At
    RACE AND CRICKET: THE WEST INDIES AND ENGLAND AT LORD’S, 1963 by HAROLD RICHARD HERBERT HARRIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Arlington in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT ARLINGTON August 2011 Copyright © by Harold Harris 2011 All Rights Reserved To Romelee, Chamie and Audie ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My journey began in Antigua, West Indies where I played cricket as a boy on the small acreage owned by my family. I played the game in Elementary and Secondary School, and represented The Leeward Islands’ Teachers’ Training College on its cricket team in contests against various clubs from 1964 to 1966. My playing days ended after I moved away from St Catharines, Ontario, Canada, where I represented Ridley Cricket Club against teams as distant as 100 miles away. The faculty at the University of Texas at Arlington has been a source of inspiration to me during my tenure there. Alusine Jalloh, my Dissertation Committee Chairman, challenged me to look beyond my pre-set Master’s Degree horizon during our initial conversation in 2000. He has been inspirational, conscientious and instructive; qualities that helped set a pattern for my own discipline. I am particularly indebted to him for his unwavering support which was indispensable to the inclusion of a chapter, which I authored, in The United States and West Africa: Interactions and Relations , which was published in 2008; and I am very grateful to Stephen Reinhardt for suggesting the sport of cricket as an area of study for my dissertation.
