The English Cricket Board (ECB) will be using high defined camera technology along with the use of AI to select their squad. After extrapolating data, a call be finally taken by Brendon McCullum and Ben Stokes in picking the English side.

Performance analyst Stafford Murray will be using a £500,000-a-year camera technology. This will help in finding the perfect team that can work wonders in Australian conditions for Ashes 2024.

Modern Selection Methods!

This is not the first time that England would be using modern methods. Earlier, this year, England toured India and they went on to give debut to Shoaib Bashir. It was adjudged that his high release point would work well in the Indian subcontinental conditions.

England will also be taking the help of the iHawk system. It includes a camera attacked to the chest of the umpire. It comfortably records the speed, release points and bowling trajectories of the bowlers. And this has been in constant use in England’s domestic circuit.

“It’s a massive project we’ve just started, on what it will take to win the Ashes. We’ll synthesise all that into a “what it takes to win” model and then we’ll work back from that – what do we need, what type of player do we need, and then we can start delving into selection from there,” Stafford Murray told The Daily Mail

‘If we’re brave, which I know we will be, we’ll be selecting in series before the Ashes with the Ashes in mind. It’s a blend and it’s an ongoing, iterative process, working towards a long-term goal,” he concluded.
