  • STEVE WAUGH Published 16.3.17 It Was Test Match Cricket That You Couldn't Take Your Eyes Off It Was Predictable but Still Disa
    STEVE WAUGH Published 16.3.17 It was Test match cricket that you couldn’t take your eyes off It was predictable but still disappointing that a brilliant Test match in which two sides had to draw upon all their reserves of mental and physical toughness in an old fashioned dogfight that saw conflict, confrontation, skill and tension before a remarkable comeback from the home, was somewhat forgotten in the aftermath of the DRS controversy. That said, I could understand the talk, the speculation and the spin each expert gave on what transpired in Bangalore. After all, the captains involved are two of the most popular and revered figures in the game today. Hopefully, the incident is behind both teams and not still smouldering as they ready themselves for the third Test in Ranchi. I was in Bangalore to witness the first three days of the Test and it was an engrossing game on a difficult pitch where batsmen could get runs if they punished the loose balls and capitalised on moments of good fortune. There was more than enough variable bounce to keep the quick bowlers interested and prodigious turn at times to enable the spinners to dominate. Both teams had their opportunities to seize the momentum but chasing 150 or more in the fourth innings was always going to be a demanding examination for the Australians particularly with Ashwin and Jadeja ready to restrict and then ultimately strangle as would an anaconda its prey. Looking ahead, Australia are in Ranchi for the venue’s debut Test without their strike bowler Mitchell Starc.

  • Math Extended Essay
    Math Extended Essay Outline, Introduction and Rationale Research Question How can principles of Probability and Markov chains be used in T20 cricket to find convergence patterns in the areas in which shots are hit for a particular batsman during a particular innings which can in turn help in better field placements?(Given his previous batting history) Aim To find and predict convergence patterns in terms of areas in which runs are scored for a particular batsman( AB de Villiers) in a particular innings given his past scoring patterns. Introduction Right from my childhood, I have always been an ardent sports fan. So when I started looking for potential IA and extended essay topics, I was sure that these topics had to be related to sports in some way or the other. After some thought, I chose Cricket as my sport due to various factors. Firstly, being a passionate cricket player and fan myself, I thought that I would be able to comprehend and relate an investigation on cricket better than an investigation on other sports. Furthermore, my personal involvement with the topic itself would provide me additional motivation and interest towards the investigation itself. Even from a mathematician’s perspective , I personally think that cricket is best suited for an investigation on statistics and Markov chain modelling because of the sheer volume of variables, data and statistics each game of cricket provides. The mathematical possibilities are endless! One can investigate batting averages, bowling averages, strike rates, fielding averages , economy rates etc . The list really is endless. So it was decided, my extended essay would be on cricket.
