  • Cobbling Together the Dream Indian Eleven
    COBBLING TOGETHER THE DREAM INDIAN ELEVEN Whenever the five selectors, often dubbed as the five wise men with the onerous responsibility of cobbling together the best players comprising India’s test cricket team, sit together to pick the team they feel the heat of the country’s collective gaze resting on them. Choosing India’s cricket team is one of the most difficult tasks as the final squad is subjected to intense scrutiny by anybody and everybody. Generally the point veers round to questions such as why batsman A was not picked or bowler B was dropped from the team. That also makes it a very pleasurable hobby for followers of the game who have their own views as to who should make the final 15 or 16 when the team is preparing to leave our shores on an away visit or gearing up to face an opposition on a tour of our country. Arm chair critics apart, sports writers find it an enjoyable professional duty when they sit down to select their own team as newspapers speculate on the composition of the squad pointing out why somebody should be in the team at the expense of another. The reports generally appear on the sports pages on the morning of the team selection. This has been a hobby with this writer for over four decades now and once the team is announced, you are either vindicated or amused. And when the player, who was not in your frame goes on to play a stellar role for the country, you inwardly congratulate the selectors for their foresight and knowledge.

  • A Semi-Empirical Formula for Opening Wicket Partnership in Test Cricket
    International Journal of Mathematical Education. ISSN0973-6948 Volume 9, Number 1 (2019), pp. 57-65 © Research India Publications http://www.ripublication.com A Semi-Empirical Formula for Opening Wicket Partnership in Test Cricket Arjun Tan* Department of Physics, Alabama A & M University, Normal, AL 35762, U.S.A. *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The opening wicket partnership is one of the most important factors on which the outcome of a cricket match depends. In this study, the greatest opening partnerships in Test cricket are studied and various semi-empirical model partnerships are constructed in lieu of fully analytical ones. It is assumed that the lesser of the two opening partners is more likely to be dismissed first. In two of four models considered, the greater partner is assumed to score runs at a faster rate than the lesser partner. In another two of the four models, the correlation coefficient between the partner scores are incorporated. The results show that the correlation factor is the more important in predicting opening partnerships. 1. OPENING PARTNERSHIP IN TEST CRICKET The opening wicket partnership (i.e., the partnership between the opening batsmen) is probably one of the most important factors on which the outcome of a cricket match depends [1, 2]. Opening batsmen have to face the fastest bowlers of the opposition and are entrusted to see the shine off the new ball. A solid opening stand lays the foundation upon which a large innings total can be built. A failed opening stand, on the other hand, often leads to a rapid collapse of the middle order batting.

  • JUSTICE VIKRAMAJIT SEN Office: Administrator, DDCA, Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium E-Mail: [email protected], Tele: 26317274
    JUSTICE VIKRAMAJIT SEN Office: Administrator, DDCA, Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium E-mail: [email protected], Tele: 26317274 20th November 2017 PRESS RELEASE It is essential that Delhi & District Cricket Association recognizes and honors’ retired cricketers who are the quintessence of a cricketing body. Recognition of sportsmen and their contribution is not only just, but is a great source of inspiration for aspiring cricketers. In line with this thought, I have constituted an ‘Honours Committee’ comprising of Chairperson Justice (Retd.) Mukul Mudgal, Dr. Narottam Puri -- DDCA Member and noted Cricket Commentator, Mr. Ravi Chaturvedi -- DDCA Member and noted Cricket Commentator, Ms. Neeru Bhatia Vijay Lokapally --- senior sports journalist and Mr.Vijay Lokapally --- senior sports journalist. The Honours Committee and I are of the view that the cricketing atmosphere in DDCA needs to be revived and the following initiatives will hopefully contribute towards that end: 1) DDCA will host the FIRST DDCA ANNUAL CONCLAVE on 29th November at our iconic Ferozeshah Kotla stadium. Mr Bishan Singh Bedi has agreed to be the keynote speaker. 2) The Conclave will also witness the inauguration of the ‘BISHAN SINGH BEDI STAND’ and the ‘MOHINDER AMARNATH STAND’ in recognition of their immense contribution to DDCA and Indian cricket. 3) In order to recognize, encourage and reward the contribution that Women deserve in our country and in her sports, a woman cricketer has been chosen too and it has been decided to name a gate in the name of Arjuna award winner and Padamshri awardee, Ms. Anjum Chopra. Gates 3-4 will be now be renamed as ‘ANJUM CHOPRA GATE’ 4) It was a matter of great concern that all these years DDCA did not have a proper hall that befits its stature and records DDCA cricketers’ contributions.
