After finding out volume of non-wood material from a referenced handle based on constraint measurement, from which joint assembly would be prepared, with the help of this joint assembly the handle would be attached or detached. The design and manufacturing process of the joint assembly with their parts has been presented in this paper as per the Law 5-the bat of MCC, 2017 which quantify the use of non-wood materials up to only one-tenth part from the total volume of the handle.

Standard cricket bats handles were chosen from four different cricket manufacturing agencies, due to having different geometrical parameters. All handle were meticulously taken off from the blade and then they were measured and recorded, aiming to constraining a new measurement for a referenced cricket bat handle of short length. The estimation was made on the behalf of the measurement (value) taken from different size of handle ranging from their minimum to maximum, and standard values of handle keeping in view on their distinct parameters separately. So, by this way determination of geometric parameters and new modification were made for constraining measurement for a referenced cricket bat handle (i.e. short in length and round in shape) found for our purpose.

The handle is made from cane with strips of cork or rubber dividing the cane into sections running the length of the handle, this construction has been designed to give the handle suitable damping and stiffness properties. By having good physical properties like moisture content, density, and mechanical properties like flexibility, stiffness, durability, lightness and having natural strength to resist the capacity of force produced by the ball impacting over 100mph, due to these characteristics that are needed into the cricket bat handles, rattans are considered as unique multifunctional raw materials for the manufacturing and construction of cricket bat handle by the different sports manufacturing industries.

By reviewing related literature based on past research work carried by many researcher on cricket bat. The criterion used for selecting and determining major parameters of the handle with some new technical parameters with reference to more traditional design based on to other performance-oriented geometrical features widely employed in commercial designs of cricket bat made by the different manufacturers' of sporting equipment in present. And so far, some new and typical geometrical parameters are considered and established for a referenced Cricket bat handle, which in turn used in a cricket bat with having a detachable handle for further study.

As the time and popularity of the game surprisingly increases, little research had been done for the advancement of the equipments when there is no restriction on the use of materials, such as composite materials, carbon fiber, titanium etc. As the new Law came into effect from 1 st October 2008, all these bats were ruled to be in contravention of the Laws of cricket and have since been withdrawn. And To further improvement in the performance of cricket bat, without violating the rules of the game, advance materials are to be used. And such advancements, together with use of stiff and lightweight composite materials, have engendered many designs would be explored in the future. Innovation is limited in cricket where the rules insist that the use of predominant material in cricket bat must be, for the blades-use of willow (100%) only and for the handles–total (90%) volume of bat handles should consist of cane, wood and/or twine with the other (10%) for other purpose like reducing vibration.

This cricket bat with detachable handle of changing length contains two sections of the handle. Section 1 remains fixed with the blade of the cricket bat. Section 2 may be more than one having distinctive lengths and can either be detached or attached with section 1, as per the requirement of the batsman. Along with this, this invention leads the batsman to reduce the weight of their kitbags that results in the transportation to bear half of the load during teams’ journey from one place to another which not only contribute economically but it will improve the environment as just half the quantity of timber will be required to manufacture and satisfies the supply demand of the cricket market.

The fossil fuels are burnt for power generation which causes pollution. Pollution is a crucial problem globally and there are so many adverse effects of pollution on living things as well as on environment.
Today in a polluted environment and changed life style it is very difficult to live healthy. In fact, regular physical activity can help to manage a wide range of health problems. Treadmill is one of the exercise machine in which someone walks/runs over a belt. This belt is wrapped around two rollers which are mounted on left and right uprights at one side and base frame on other side respectively.
The human effort during exercise goes waste in conventional manual treadmill. The author has designed a treadmill with Electricity Generator to produce electricity during exercise. The generator is coupled with the roller Flywheel with help of a V-belt to generate electricity using human effort. The electricity generated during exercise may be used for charging a battery or for any other work. The design of this Treadmill has been presented in this paper.

Since the 17th century cricket bat has been changed various times; the earliest cricket bats were made from a single piece of wood. The gradual development of cricket bat made this single piece of wood in to two parts i.e. the blade and the handle. Over the last 3 years there has been a spate of innovation in cricket bat handles to improve bat performance. But this time the guardian of the rules MCC decided the trend would tilt the balance in favor of the batsman too much, where the ball, pitches and boundaries have remained unchanged. So they modified Rule 6, and allow only 10% of ‘non-wood’ material in the handle. So by keeping in mind the rules of cricket bat characteristics a new recent development takes place that would be dominant in the era of modern cricket. This innovation further bifurcates the handle in two parts and the blade will remain same as it was (Ali, S. & Murtaza, S. T. 2014).

There are currently 42 laws in which one of them is the Law 6 related with the bat which is the base of this present study. There has been a major transformation in cricket bats throughout the history. Since the initially systematized guidelines were composed in 1744, the sequence of changes influencing the bat comes in 1774 (first rule for the bat), 1809, 1979, and 2008 respectively. The changes might have made some sense to protect the spirit and balance of the game. They subsequently ruled the bats illegal under Law 6.2 (2000 code ‐ 2nd edition 2003) relating to covering material. The MCC as the Guardian of the Laws of Cricket has a duty to maintain the traditional balance between the bat and the ball. In recent years, it has been evident that the bat is starting to dominate. Furthermore, with the developments in technology and materials, a few cricket bats have appeared in the market with potential performance-enhancing properties. MCC believes that, if the cricket bat becomes too powerful, it will be detrimental to the sport that forces to MCC to change Law 6(the bat) and a 3rd edition of the 2000 code was published in 2008 with newly created appendix E for the bat.

2008). It relishes 400-Odd years of annals (Murtaza S. T. & et. al. 2014). Authors believe that it
has been originated from the ancient sport of India i.e. Gilli Danda (Tipcat in English) which has
possibly the origin over 2500 years ago (Steve Craig-2002 & John Arlott-1975). Cricket was
taken by the British to their Colonies & started playing & expanding into every continent on the
globe. Modern day’s cricket has been transformed into more competitive & become more
aggressive where every player has to put extra efforts in order to perform at the optimum level
(Murtaza S. T. & et. al. 2014). Innovation in cricket is very rare. In the past, many cricket teams
have been able to survive even with very limited amounts of innovation in their arsenal. They
focused on providing the basic skills and simply update them to a level that maintains their
competitiveness at the global plane. This method still applies but with few opportunities &
chance for innovation.

games & sports. Long hours practice without aiming at something worthwhile has become the
norm in cricket. Net practice in cricket is a very traditional form of practice. Sessions at nets have
full potential to simulate the match-like situation and offer a very operative long term type of
practice for each players especially batsmen & bowlers to improve their skills, and eventually
their performance. But despite having the potential of resembling the competition-like
situations, nets are handled and used without purpose where batsmen usually pad-up and bat for
10-20 minute without concentrating on specific shots or weak points, and the net session
continues each day in a similar fashion. Planning for net sessions is vital & decisive to thriving
coaching. Authors in this paper strove to create a training methodology using close nets
concentrating on performance and avoiding pitfalls of traditional practice in cricket.
