World Championship for Test Cricket

International cricket is the focus of this resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching. Data relating to 2006 is used to demonstrate how the ICC Test Championship Table is constructed and students are guided through a series of activities that have been designed to prompt discussion and develop mathematical thinking.

This could be implemented as a cross-curricular exercise with the physical education department. The teachers' notes provide a detailed structure for planning lessons, as well as the relevant solutions to calculations.
