On 23 October, 1999, Australian captain Steve ('Tugga') Waugh, perhaps b ecause of his intuitive knowledge of quantum mechanics, appears to have set the field at maxima in | Y 2 |, where Y is the wave function of the cricket ball, as is shown in the photograph below. Showing all reasoning and calculation, determine 1) whom he should ask to bowl, and 2) howzat? We also answer one classical question about cricket ball motion. The small angle approximation is a bit crude for the angular spacing Dq , but will suffice for this approximate analysis, so Dq ~ l.Da / p a, where Da is the spacing between maxima of | Y 2 |.
