Cricket is a sport for which many batting and bowling statistics have been proposed. However, feature of cricket that the level aggressiveness adopted by batsmen dependent on match circumstances. It therefore relevant to consider these circumstances when evaluating performances. This paper considers performance in second innings limited overs target has set. The runs required, number completed ...

This paper presents a new algorithm for the dynamic Multi-Level Capacitated Lot Sizing Problem with Setup Carry-Overs (MLCLSP-L). The MLCLSP-L is a big-bucket model that allows the production of any number of products within a period, but it incorporates partial sequencing of the production orders in the sense that the first and the last product produced in a period are determined by the model....

Few studies have examined the impact of an increased physical demand on batting performance, especially over extended periods of play. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine the physiological and perceptual responses of batsmen scoring a simulated limited overs century, and to link these to sprint times and accuracy of the impact of the ball on the bat. Seventeen male, university...

An estimated 24,200 children younger than 15 years, 20,700 (85%) of whom were younger than 5 years, were treated in US hospital emergency departments in 2005 for shopping cart-related injuries.
