Australian Cricket’s Playing Policies and Guidelines 4 The Spirit of Cricket Australians are justifiably proud of the place sport has in their daily lives. However, what is equally important to all of us involved in cricket is the way the game is played and the manner in which all participants conduct themselves. The Game The ‘Spirit of Cricket’ is fostered by the values that you Fair Play (as a volunteer administrator, coach, teacher, parent, or According to the Laws of Cricket, umpires are the player) bring to your team, club, and the game itself. sole judges of fair and unfair play.

Where a player fails to comply with the instructions of the umpire, the umpire concerned should, in the first place, report the matter to the other umpire and to the player’s captain or coach, and instruct the captain or coach to take appropriate action. Examples of where a player fails to comply include: " Criticising by word or action the decisions of an umpire; " Showing dissent; or " Generally behaving in a manner which might bring the game into disrepute.

  • The Swing of a Cricket Ball
    SCIENCE BEHIND REVERSE SWING C.P.VINOD CSIR-National Chemical Laboratory Pune BACKGROUND INFORMATION • Swing bowling is a skill in cricket that bowlers use to get a batsmen out. • It involves bowling a ball in such a way that it curves or ‘swings’ in the air. • The process that causes this ball to swing can be explained through aerodynamics. Dynamics is the study of the cause of the motion and changes in motion Aerodynamics is a branch of Dynamics which studies the motion of air particularly when it interacts with a moving object There are basically four factors that govern swing of the cricket ball: Seam Asymmetry in ball due to uneven tear Speed Bowling Action Seam of cricket ball Asymmetry in ball due to uneven tear Cricket ball is made from a core of cork, which is layered with tightly wound string, and covered by a leather case with a slightly raised sewn seam Dimensions- Weight: 155.9 and 163.0 g 224 and 229 mm in circumference Speed Fast bowler between 130 to 160 KPH THE BOUNDARY LAYER • When a sphere travels through air, the air will be forced to negotiate a path around the ball • The Boundary Layer is defined as the small layer of air that is in contact with the surface of a projectile as it moves through the air • Initially the air that hits the front of the ball will stick to the ball and accelerate in order to obtain the balls velocity. • In doing so it applies pressure (Force) in the opposite direction to the balls velocity by NIII Law, this is known as a Drag Force.

  • Design of Neck Protection Guards for Cricket Helmets
    Design of Neck Protection Guards for Cricket Helmets T. Y. Pang a and P. Dabnichki School of Engineering, RMIT University, Bundoora Campus East, Bundoora VIC 3083, Australia Keywords: Cricket, Helmet, Neck, Guard, Design. Abstract: Cricket helmet safeguards have come under scrutiny due to the lack of protection at the basal skull and neck region, which resulted in the fatal injury of one Australian cricketer in 2014. Current cricket helmet design has a number of shortcomings, the major one being the lack of a neck guard. This paper introduces a novel neck protection guard that provides protection to a cricket helmet wearer’s head and neck, without restricting head movements and obstructing the airflow, but achieving a minimal weight. Adopting an engineering design approach, the concept was generated using computer aided design software. The design was performed through several iterative processes to achieve an optimal solution. A prototype was then created using rapid prototyping technology and tested experimentally to meet the objectives and design constraints. The experimental results showed that the novel neck protection guard reduced by more than 50% the head acceleration values in the drop test in accordance to Australian Standard AS/NZS 4499.1-3:1997 protective headgear for cricket. Further experimental and computer simulation analysis are recommended to select suitable materials for the neck guards with satisfactory levels of protection and impact-attenuation capabilities for users. 1 INTRODUCTION head and facial injuries (Ranson et al. 2013).

  • Bowling Performance Assessed with a Smart Cricket Ball: a Novel Way of Profiling Bowlers †
    Proceedings Bowling Performance Assessed with a Smart Cricket Ball: A Novel Way of Profiling Bowlers † Franz Konstantin Fuss 1,*, Batdelger Doljin 1 and René E. D. Ferdinands 2 1 Smart Products Engineering Program, Centre for Design Innovation, Swinburne University of Technology, Melbourne 3122, Australia; [email protected] 2 Department of Exercise and Sports Science, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Sydney, Sydney 2141, Australia; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +61-3-9214-6882 † Presented at the 13th conference of the International Sports Engineering Association, Online, 22–26 June 2020. Published: 15 June 2020 Abstract: Profiling of spin bowlers is currently based on the assessment of translational velocity and spin rate (angular velocity). If two spin bowlers impart the same spin rate on the ball, but bowler A generates more spin rate than bowler B, then bowler A has a higher chance to be drafted, although bowler B has the potential to achieve the same spin rate, if the losses are minimized (e.g., by optimizing the bowler’s kinematics through training). We used a smart cricket ball for determining the spin rate and torque imparted on the ball at a high sampling frequency. The ratio of peak torque to maximum spin rate times 100 was used for determining the ‘spin bowling potential’. A ratio of greater than 1 has more potential to improve the spin rate. The spin bowling potential ranged from 0.77 to 1.42. Comparatively, the bowling potential in fast bowlers ranged from 1.46 to 1.95. Keywords: cricket; smart cricket ball; profiling; performance; skill; spin rate; torque; bowling potential 1.

    Palm Island Voice Your Community Issue 47 Your Newsletter Tuesday 17 November 2009 Your Voice Ow, look out! They’re out there again... The Stinger Season has arrived with one person from Palm Island already confirmed as stung by one of the marine creatures. It’s a timely reminder that prevention is better than cure, says paramedic Ian Day. The young person concerned had her stinger suit purchased for her the week before, but wasn’t wearing it at the time of the attack. After a painful night in hospital she told the Palm Island Voice she wouldn’t be going into the water again without it. QAS Palm Island has just taken delivery of this year’s supply of stinger suits and for the first time now cater for all ages and all sizes from size 2 child to size 28 adult. Mr Day said some sizes were limited and sales would be on a “first in, first served’ basis. He also said they could not take book-ups, only cash.

Posted/Updated Tuesday, Jan 08 16:06:48, 2008 The hot controversy of banning the Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh from three test matches two days ago, and the falling out between the Australian and Indian cricket teams have caught the Australian media by surprise. The oxymoron of 'fair sports coverage' is on stark display during this crisis in the International cricket contest between India and Australia. There are a number of issues plaguing the current cricket sports coverage from Sydney and elsewhere of the crisis, where Indian cricket team has threatened to abandon the Australian tour after two test matches. The Indian cricket players are incensed by the 'unfair' ruling on one of their players, when Australian players continue to play the game 'hard' and allegedly indulge in sledging more than any other cricket team.
