From the Archive Andover Cricketclub Andover England vs Sri Lanka a Short History Ctd CricketClub Andover CricketClub ast week we looked at the History of England vs Sri Lank from the 1980s up to 1998. Saturday Today we take the story up to the present day. May 27th 2006 L 2000-01 : England arrived in Sri Lanka buoyed by a stirring win in Pakistan two League weekend No 4 months earlier, and the series was billed as being all about how England would cope with Muralitharan. Although he took 14 wickets, they cost 30 each and his strike rate was a wicket every 101 balls.

Attempting to happening every week. emulate Nasser Hussain's famously attritional approach, Vaughan's tactics proved to be unnecessarily timid, and England had backed themselves so far into the corner that they had expended all reserves of energy by the time the decisive third Test came along. At Colombo, they lost by an innings and 215 runs - their third-biggest defeat in history - as the peerless Muttiah Muralitharan finally twirled through their defences. England had saved the first Test at Galle in memorable fashion, and got out of jail thanks to Vaughan's hundred in the second, but there was to be no third-time lucky on this occasion.

  • Objective Measures of Performance in the World Cup of Cricket
    OBJECTIVE MEASURES OF PERFORMANCE IN THE WORLD CUP OF CRICKET. Stephen R Clarke, Swinburne University of Technology, PO Box 218, Hawthorn, 3122, Australia, +61 3 9214 8885, sclarke@swin, edu. au Paul Allsopp, Swinburne University of Technology, Hawthorn, 3122, Australia, +61 3 9307 000, paulalls@telstra, easymail, com.au ABSTRACT Since luck can play a big part in tournament success, team management should use more objective measures of performance. A Linear model is used to fit least squares ratings to margins of victory in the World Cup of cricket. The Duckworth/Lewis (D/L) rain interruption rules are applied to second innings victories to create a margin of victory in runs, equivalent to that for the team batting first. Results show that while the better teams progressed through the first round of the competition, some injustices occurred in the Super-Six round. Ordering teams by average margin of victory in runs gives similar results to the linear model, and its official publication and use as a tie breaker is suggested. INTRODUCTION The 1999 World Cup of (one-day) cricket was contested by 12 teams comprising the nine test match playing countries plus Scotland, Kenya and Bangladesh. These were 'seeded' and divided into two groups. Group A comprised Sri Lanka, India, South Africa, England, Zimbabwe and Kenya. Group B comprised Australia, West Indies, Pakistan, New Zealand, Bangladesh and Scotland. After the round robin group matches, the top three teams from Group A (South Africa, India and Zimbabwe) and Group 13 (Pakistan, Australia and New Zealand) progressed to the Super-Six, where they played each team from the other group.

Much like the UN, the ICC brings representatives from all cricket-playing countries together to make administrative decisions about the future of cricket. Unlike the UN, however, not all countries have an equal input; the ICC decides which members are worthy of “Test” status (Full Members), and which are not (Associate Members). While the Council has experienced many successes, including hosting the prestigious World Cup and promoting cricket at a grassroots level, it also continues to receive its fair share of criticism, predominantly regarding the ICC’s perceived obstruction of the growth of the game within non- traditionally cricketing nations and prioritizing the commercialization of the sport over globalizing it.

  • Evolution of Test Cricket in Last Six Decades a Univariate Time Series Analysis
    Evolution of Test Cricket in Last Six Decades A Univariate Time Series Analysis Mayank Nagpal Sumit Mishra 1 Introduction We intend to analyse the structural changes in the average annual run-rate, i.e., how many runs are scored in each over, a measure of how much bat dominates the ball or how aggressively teams bat. Test cricket is the traditional format of the game. It is considered to be a snail-form of the game when we compare it with newer versions of the game, viz, ODI and T20 .A test cricket match lasting 5 days is apparently a lot less exciting for some than an ODI which lasts for eight hours or a T20 match which is matter of two-three hours. The general view is that with the advent of new technology, pitches that are more batsmen-friendly and craving for result in each game, the average run rate seems to have increased. Some analysts attribute this change to the emergence of newer formats and other innovations in the game. The question we are trying to answer is about whether these factors like those mentioned below had any significant impact on the game. The events whose effect we like to capture are: • Advent of One Day International(ODI):With dying popularity of test cricket matches during 1960s,a tournament called Gillette Cup was played in 1963 in England. The cup had sixty- five overs a side matches. This tourney was a knockout one and it became quite popular and laid foundation for a sleeker format of the game known as ODI-fifty overs a side game.
