Melville with a little less success on field than we are accustomed to, however there were many achievements to be very proud of. Congratulations to the Womens A Grade , T/20 Winners this season, also our Colts with a huge result winning the competition for the First time in nearly twenty years. A great effort from a young team and great coaching from Liam Duffield. 2nd Grade, 4th Grade and both Women’s teams also Simon accepting Voges shirt from Christina played in finals. A big achievement in itself. Matthews Again Coaching continued to be a focus of the club with Brad Thompson, Jenny Wallace, Greg Turner and Junior Coaches. A new initiative from Australian Cricketers Association provided Drew Porter and Luke Towers the opportunity to bring specialist coaching to the Club. A very successful program. This season saw a strong Club atmosphere, more players becoming involved in running the Club at all levels, especially with Management Committee and Social functions. Melville obviously has a strong playing and social culture and is a good place to play cricket. Changes were made to the traditional President’s Medal. Firstly a name change, now called the Adam Voges Medal, in recognition of all Adam has achieved and the extremely high regard in which he is held by everyone at the Melville Club. To complement the Men’s and Women’s awards a new category was introduced for Junior best player. The Adam Voges Medal winner for best Men’s player in the Club was won by Tom Smith. Niamh Walsh took out the Women’s medal and Kiale O’Brien became the first winner of the Junior Adam Voges Medal. Curator Chris Lovelock continues to impress with his work ethic and approachable nature. His enthusiasm is obvious and is something recognised by everyone at Melville. With outside expert advice and extra work on the wickets in the off season we are gradually moving back towards a goal of having some of the best wickets in the competition. Tom Scollay again looked after Club finances in a tough year for the Club. We have previously relied on Tompkins Park for a large part of our income and while this is still important a decline in the Commercial world has led to smaller dividends and the need to find other sources of income. A small increase in WACA and Cricket Australia grants has helped but the main improvement came when Joe Mahoney took on the Sponsorship manager role and has doubled our income from this source. Members need to ensure sponsors receive value for their input. Many thanks to all our Sponsors for their assistance, a number of whom attend matches and social functions and have become part of our Club. The City of Melville plans to restructure Tompkins Park appear to have stalled and there has been no information on this for many months. The Committee will update members when and if anything happens. Our Canteen again finished with a small profit, exactly as planned. Thanks to all who helped here. This is a difficult job and hard to see where our canteen is heading with new volunteers needed and an ageing room to work from. 5 At the time of writing we are collating information for our Yearbook. In line with modern thinking it will be available on-line but there should still be a few printed copies available. Congratulations to the many players selected to play at higher levels.

  • 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.

Over the past seventeen years this format has grown leaps and bounds and is very keenly watched by all stakeholders involved with the game. The popularity and the growth of T20 has led to cricket boards taking this format with uttermost seriousness and every major cricket playing nation has its own international team and domestic league. Over the past seventeen years the strategies involved in succeeding in this format have also evolved and teams at the international, franchise and domestic level are trying to evolve their playbook to gain a comparative advantage. Seventeen years since T20 cricket started, preparation for matches globally have changed from casual chats in team meetings. For coaches and captains, dossiers of 25 pages are common; these dissect the opponent's strengths and weaknesses, suggest set-plays, which are the optimum ways that a bowler can set up a batsman, and explain the best parts of the ground to target and which end might suit each bowler best This research paper will delve into a potential winning strategy for a T20 side.

  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • Cricket Wellington
    Cricket Wellington Friday 9 October 2009 Full buffet of cricket for Wellingtonians this summer Wellington cricket fans can look forward to a feast of domestic cricket this 2009/10 season, including an extended men’s four-day competition and a dedicated window throughout January for the new much anticipated HRV Cup Twenty20 competition. HRV Cup Twenty20 A major highlight on this summer’s domestic cricket calendar is the HRV Cup, which will see the six major associations playing each other home and away for the first time prior to a showcase final between the two leading sides. The timing of the HRV Cup, which begins on 2nd January with the final on 31st January, ensures the BLACKCAPS can represent their provincial teams and will add luster to the competition. The inclusion of current Wellington BLACKCAPS players including Jesse Ryder, Grant Elliott, Iain O’Brien, James Franklin and Jeetan Patel, as well a host of former internationals and exciting up and comers, will see fans flock to the Allied Nationwide Finance Basin Reserve for high quality Twenty20 action. As well as BLACKCAPS, the competition will boast a clutch of international marquee players such as current England international Owais Shah for the Firebirds, Tillakaratne Dilshan for the Northern Knights and Dimitri Mascarenhas for the Otago Volts. The added incentive of winning the inaugural HRV Cup is a place in the lucrative Champions League event, which features the world’s best exponents of Twenty20 cricket. Wellington hosts the Canterbury Wizards in their first home game at the Basin Reserve on Wednesday 6 January ahead of a match-up with the Auckland Aces on Friday 8 January.
