  • Pacers Outduel Grizzlies
    WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2013 SPORTS Pacers outduel Grizzlies INDIANAPOLIS: Paul George scored 23 points and Lance Stephenson had the first triple- double of his career, leading the Indiana Pacers to a 95-79 victory Monday over the Memphis Grizzlies. Indiana became the NBA’s seventh team to open 8-0 since 2000 - two more wins than the franchise’s previous best start. And they fol- lowed a familiar script in the battle between last season’s conference runner-ups by domi- nating the glass, dominating the second half and divvying up top honors. Stephenson finished with 13 points, 11 rebounds and a career-high 12 assists. George Hill scored 13 points and Roy Hibbert added five more blocks to his NBA-leading total. Memphis was led by Marc Gasol with 15 points and Zach Randolph with 12.

  • PEAK PERFORMANCE AGE: a DESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS of PAKISTAN TEST BATSMEN Imran Abbass
    PEAK PERFORMANCE AGE: A DESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS OF PAKISTAN TEST BATSMEN Imran Abbass ABSTRACT The study intended to explore the relationship of age and performance of test batsmen to know at what age they achieved the peak performance while playing test cricket. Qualitative data was collected through interviews and Secondary data sources were used of different ICC (International Cricket Council) websites and magazines. Sample comprised of top 12 test players of Pakistan from past and present era, who played for Pakistan with distinction. Time series and regression analysis was executed to find the significance of the relationship between their age and performance (Batting average).The findings of the study revealed a parabolic trajectory relationship between age and their performance, positive relationship at the start and then a plateau and then a negative relationship between age and performance. The rise and decline pattern varied and majority of the cricket players touched the peak between the ages of 28 to 34 years. The current study will provide solid grounds to account the role of age in producing expert performance and strongly suggested through the evidence of data analysis that to achieve the expert performance of the enrolled test batsmen, patience is required until and unless the cricket players meet a specific age limit. Key Words: Cricket, Test Batsmen, Peak Performance, Age INTRODUCTION score of 23, Aamer nicked one to On a bright sunny morning of the Bacher in the slips and in 1997-98 winters, stage was set to adding four runs Pakistan top topple the mighty South Africans four batsman were gone to the at eastern shores.

    As if losing the first Ashes test isn’t enough... Cricket Australia’s dirty laundry is now being aired while the Australian team prepare for the second test. Former coach Mickey Arthur is suing Cricket Australia following his public sacking just 10 days before the first Ashes test. Arthur has filed proceedings in the Fair Work Commission alleging, among other things, that his sacking was unlawful on the grounds of racial discrimination. Amber Sharp That is, Arthur claims that he was discriminated against because of his Partner South African background and because of a perception that he didn’t +61 2 8216 3099 understand the “Australian way”. He also alleges that he was not [email protected] supported by Cricket Australia over the “homework gate” affair resulting in four players being sent home from an Indian tour. Arthur is claiming damages in the order of $4 million, which he estimates to be his losses resulting from the early termination of his contract which was due to expire in June 2015. Plus he wanted a further 3 years beyond that time. While damages for general protections claims are not subject to a cap, a damages award in that amount based on discrimination alone would certainly be exceptional. If a resolution isn’t reached in the Fair Work Commission, Arthur will likely elect to pursue his claim in the Federal Court, at which time he can add common law claims such as breach of contract.
