Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cricket has emerged as religion in the sub-contient, While in the West, strategy may have had its origins in the Military, here we can clearly see patterns that Corporate Strategy seems to emerge from Cricket. Gully Cricket is all about adapting, and the three formats of the game, viz. T20, 50-50 and Test Match demand different strategies -- from rapid to agile to sustainable. One relates to targets far better as we have accustomed ourselves to chasing and defending. Slogging is not just about working hard, but also about hardhitting. Strike Bowler is also a star performer and there are many parallels one can discover between the strategic role in a corporate and what happens in the field of Cricket. What's on paper and what happens on the field are as good as the implementation that happens on ground. Lengthy presentations, discussions are no good till it is translated into reality on the field. Similarly a player may have impressive track record in terms of an average; or centuries and half centuries scored, but the performance on the given day matters. Truly Cricket and Corporate is the Convergence point of strategy.

Download or read book Afghanistan to Zimbabwe The A to Z of International Cricket Records written by Roy Morgan and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-05-19 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using information on some 65,000 matches and more than 15,000 players, the records are given for every country in the world that has played some form of international cricket between 24 September 1844, the date of the first international match, and the 6 April 2014. Since the records found in various annuals and on the internet are restricted almost entirely to those countries that play Test cricket, a large gap in the published statistical information is filled, showing cricket as a truly global sport. The records cover highest and lowest team scores; individual batting, bowling, wicketkeeping and fielding performances; best wicket partnerships of 100 runs or more and most extras in an innings. Multi-innings, one-day and Twenty20 matches are treated separately for both men's and women's internationals. The statistical tables are supported by a text summarising the information provided and highlighting important achievements.
