For domestic competition this can vary from state to state. However, for national and international games, the team usually comprises eleven players which break down to four totally blind players and seven partially sighted players. What equipment is used? We use conventional cricket bat. The wickets are of conventional dimensions but are made of aluminium or otherwise metal materials. The pitch we play on is concrete and 22 yards in length. The boundaries are 30 to 40 yards. Our blind cricket ball is made of nylon tubing woven around a wire mould and contains lead pieces to give it weight and bottle tops for sound. It is slightly larger than the ball used in the sighted version of the game. Accessories such as cricket pads and gloves are optional and the same as those used by our sighted counterparts. How long does a Blind cricket game usually last? Again this varies from state to state for domestic competition games. Matches can be played over one or two days but their duration is typically of 90 to 100 or so overs.

These two teams tied their round-robin game when they both scored 200 off their respective 40 overs. In the final the Barbarians batted first and scored 191 off their 40 overs with B3 player Brett Wilson scoring 64, B1 Andrew McDonald scoring 24 and B1 player John Puhara scoring 18.

Extractions: Top of page ... Newsletters Early November is that curious time of the year when a student entirely loses touch with any sense of an external reality and is completely consumed by his or her academic concerns. This means that the only things I can think to fill my monthly editorial space with are of absolutely no interest to anyone in the outside world. If there is anyone out there wanting to know about my thoughts on the likely fate of the neo-liberal reform agenda in the public service, the effect of democratisation in Taiwan on the claims for ownership of the island advanced by the Chinese Communist Party, or the moral conservative and anti-youth prejudices that underlie the Howard Government's "work for the dole" scheme, then you are more than welcome to telephone me for a very long chat.

Extractions: Blind cricket is similar to traditional cricket with minor modifications.. The ball must be bowled underarm with at least 2 bounces on the pitch either side of the halfway line. Over the last 30 years the ball used for blind cricket has changes significantly from a woven cane ball dunked in water, to a nylon ball and now to a hardened plastic ball. All balls make a rattling sound enabling people with little or no vision to play the sport. The South Australian Blind Cricket Club was formed in 1970 and has fielded teams in the National Championships ever since. In 1998, four South Australians were selected for the National Training Squad with two being selected to represent Australia in the inaugural Blind Cricket World Cup held in India. SA had two in the current National Training Squad with one being selected for the 2nd World Cup in 2002.
