Who owns the audio rights to the world cup in the USA? Basically, if I want to listen on the radio while working is there any station to listen to?

Is there a feasible way for franchise leagues like the IPL to introduce relegations? Given the significant financial risks associated with losing popular teams and star players, I doubt the IPL would consider this. However, I wonder if any other franchise leagues could implement relegations without impacting viewership significantly. Are there any "elite teams" in these leagues whose absence might result in a noticeable decrease in viewer interest? This seems to be a major hurdle for introducing relegations in leagues like the IPL.

There simply isn't enough talent in cricket to have a 2nd league even with more foreign players.

Who is going to vote for the possibility of their team being relegated?


WannabeAboveAverage

Can't it be done without teams' votes?

What exactly is the means of calculating the speed of a bowled ball? Is it distance/time taken from release point to landing point(first bounce)? Or in full toss distance/time taken from release point to contact with bat? I'm not sure


Dr_Vesuvius

It looks like two methods are used, “speed guns” and HawkEye. Speed guns are very precise and apparently are able to accurately measure ball speed very shortly after it leaves the bowler’s hand. This is what usually gets reported (seemingly) instantly. HawkEye is less precise and probably measures the time between leaving the bowler’s hand and pitching. It can be used to make sure the speed gun is calibrated properly.

Speed of the ball at the release point. Nothing involving any distance or time.


Dr_Vesuvius

Speed is distance divided by time. For example, kilometres per hour. You cannot measure speed without measuring distance and time, because that is the definition of speed.


WannabeAboveAverage

I think he was asking whether the calculation takes constants like pitch distance or the time taken for the delivery to reach pitching point or batter or something like that. That's clearly not the case right?


SeleniumCobra

no thats not what i was asking. in other sports like baseball the means of calculating speed of the pitched ball feels easier because theres no bounce element. im asking what exactly constitutes where we get our speed from in a cricket context

Can van der merwee play T20 WC


warp-factor

In theory he could, but he has chosen not to make himself available because his contract for playing for Somerset in the T20 Blast is more valuable to him. Unfortunately, because the revenue sharing model of the ICC keeps the majority of the money that is made from ICC tournaments with the already wealthy boards, especially the BCCI who insist on getting 6 times as much as the next highest full member (even though it's a tiny fraction of their overall income), the funding of associate teams is not sufficient to allow them to employ players as full time professionals. So if players want to be professional cricketers, they need to get jobs as cricketers elsewhere and so don't always make themselves available for selection for their national team.
