When I reflect on our achievements, an overwhelming positive is that we continue to feature in semi-final games across many of the grades. It’s a very positive indicator that the philosophy to focus on player development is the right one. We were again very well represented in semi-finals but this year we were able to convert this to a piece of silverware, winning arguably one of the best Limited Overs finals to have ever been played in Sydney Premier Cricket. It was a day to savour, and who can forget that last ball and the celebration that immediately followed. I’m sure more will be written in Matty Halse’s First Grade report. Somewhat disappointingly, the weather rolled in about mid-March and significantly disrupted semi-final cricket. Unfortunately for our First and Third grade teams we were bundled out in the first week without bowling a ball. The Fifth grade team got through to the second week but were beaten by a strong St George team, and the Metropolitan Cup boys dominated all year only to lose to Gordon in the grand final. I expect we’ll see more of the boys in the grade teams in the years ahead. The women’s Second grade team also made the semi-finals only to be knocked out due to the weather. The Poidevin-Gray team dominated the competition rounds but unfortunately didn’t play their best cricket in the quarter-final and lost to Fairfield. The Green Shield team were well coached and did a super job to make the semi-finals, only to lose a tight game against the competition favourites Northern District. The future looks bright. From an outsider’s perspective there seems to be a strong work ethic within the bulk of the playing and coaching group that manifests itself in self-belief. This has resulted in winning games that we shouldn’t have. We see evidence of a strong, positive culture: even when it is extremely hot we still have very good numbers at training. I would encourage you to continue to challenge each other and maintain the great culture that we have within the club. It’s not every day that you say goodbye to 2 people who have collectively been involved in the club for over 35 years, but this year we farewell Matty ‘Bunger’ Halse and Steve ‘Jack’ Small. Matty has been with the club since 1994 when he joined the Green Shield team and has been a member of 5 premiership winning teams, a superb effort and reflection of his contribution to the team, his ability and character.

  • Mathematical Models for Cricket Team Selection
    Mathematical Models for Cricket Team Selection Hamish Thorburn Dr Michael Forbes The University of Queensland 26/02/2015 1 1 Abstract An attempt was made to try and select the Australian Test Cricket Team for then-upcoming series against India in December-January 2014-2015. Data was collected pertaining to 37 Australian cricket players, relating to both recent form (the 12 months prior to commencement of the project) and career form across multiple formats of the game. The team was selected using a mixed-integer- programming (MIP) model, after processing the statistics collected to create usable parameters for the model. It was found that the team selected by the MIP model shared only 5 of the 11 players with the actual team selected by the Australian Board of Selectors to compete in the series. When altering parameters of the model, it was found that the batting diversity of the team could be doubled while only losing 0.008 of the available talent of selected players. The reduced costs were calculated to determine how close unselected players were to being selected, and what they would have to increase their batting/bowling averages to be considered for selection. Finally, we compared the ICC player ratings to our calculated batting and bowling indices, to try to determine the optimal weighting between the different statistics. It was found that batting average was most important in batting performance (but was more important in test matches than one-day matches) and that bowling average and economy were equally important in bowling performance. 2 Introduction 2.1 The Game of Cricket Cricket is a sport composing of opposing teams of 11 players each side.

    SATURDAY, 26 JUNE 2021 DEFINING MOMENT EFTBA AT THE FOREFRONT OF EASING MARE MOVEMENTS By Emma Berry The 2021 breeding season was hit by the perfect storm of ongoing Covid travel restrictions and the end of the transition period that meant Britain's exit from the European Union is now complete. Brexit has been a thorn in the industry's side for five years. For those in Britain who were opposed to it, it has long been considered a gratuitous act of economic self-harm for the country, but the damage done is not restricted to that island. Brexit has affected modes of operation for untold businesses within neighbouring European countries, and it has destroyed what has for more than 40 years helped to maintain a largely disease-free European Thoroughbred breeding herd: the Tripartite Agreement (TPA). Increased red tape surrounding equine transportation between the UK and the EU post-Brexit, not to mention the High Definition (Ire) | racingfotos.com uncertainty of potential delays at the borders, has led to a decrease in the movement of breeding stock of more than 60% How High Definition (Ire) (Galileo {Ire}) would have fared at this year among the former TPA countries.

  • Cricketing Chances
    CRICKETING CHANCES G. L. Cohen Department of Mathematical Sciences Faculty of Science University of Technology, Sydney PO Box 123, Broadway NSW 2007, Australia [email protected] Abstract Two distinct aspects of the application of probabilistic reasoning to cricket are considered here. First, the career bowling figures of the members of one team in a limited-overs competition are used to determine the team bowling strike rate and hence the probability of dismissing the other team. This takes account of the chances of running out an opposing batsman and demonstrates that the probability of dismissing the other team is approximately doubled when there is a good likelihood of a run-out. Second, we show that under suitable assumptions the probability distribution of the number of scoring strokes made by a given batsman in any innings is geometric. With the further assumption (which we show to be tenable) that the ratio of runs made to number of scoring strokes is a constant, we are able to derive the expression (A/(A + 2))0/2 as the approximate probability of the batsman scoring at least c runs (c ~ 1), where A is the batsman's average score over all past innings. In both cases, the results are compared favourably with results from the history of cricket. 1 Introduction In an excellent survey of papers written on statistics (the more mathematical kind) applied to cricket, Clarke [2] writes that cricket "has the distinction of being the first sport used for the illustration of statistics", but: "In contrast to baseball, few papers in the professional literature analyse cricket, and two rarely analyse the same topic." This paper analyses two aspects of cricket.
