  • Run-Rate Annual Contract Value (Or Run-Rate ACV)
    Corporate Presentation MARCH 2021 Safe Harbor Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Performance Measures To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we use the following non-GAAP financial and other key performance measures: billings, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, non-GAAP net loss per share, free cash flow, subscription revenue, subscription billings, subscription revenue mix, subscription billings mix, Annual Contract Value Billings (or ACV Billings), and Run-rate Annual Contract Value (or Run-rate ACV). In computing these non-GAAP financial measures and key performance measures, we exclude certain items such as stock-based compensation and the related income tax impact, costs associated with our acquisitions (such as amortization of acquired intangible assets, income tax-related impact, and other acquisition-related costs), impairment of operating lease-related assets, change in fair value of derivative liability, amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, non-cash interest expense, other non- recurring transactions and the related tax impact, and the revenue and billings associated with pass-through hardware sales. Billings is a performance measure which we believe provides useful information to investors because it represents the amounts under binding purchase orders received by us during a given period that have been billed, and we calculate billings by adding the change in deferred revenue betweenDividerthe start and end of the period to total sliderevenue recognized in the same period. Non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating expenses, and non-GAAP net loss per share are financial measures which we believe provide useful information to investors because they provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain expenses and expenditures such as stock-based compensation expense that may not be indicative of our ongoing core business operating results.

  • 15U-16U Teams Will Follow NFHS Rules
    15u-16u teams will follow NFHS rules. With these exceptions: - No inning will begin after 2 hours (Any team attempting to delay game with a lead to cause a win will be penalized. 4 minutes while switching sides will be enforced.) The umpire will begin calling a ball or a strike every 10 seconds against the offending team. It is to the umpire’s discretion to enforce this rule, not the opposing team. Games are 7 innings in length Run Rule (Mercy Rule Ending Game) 15 runs after 4 innings and 10 after 5 innings Teams will be ready and equipped 15 minutes prior to game time for their game. NO INFIELD OR BATTING PRACTICE ALLOWED ON FIELD PRIOR TO GAMES. - Pitch counts are as follows: 1-35 pitches (No rest) 36-55 pitches (1 Day Rest) 56-70 pitches (2 Days Rest) 71+ pitches (3 Days/Pitcher is basically done) 110 pitches maximum per game/day The pitch count ENDS on the first pitch to the last batter faced. Meaning, little Johnny has 38 pitches and faces his last batter and finishes with 43. His pitch count for the game is 39 pitches. We understand it impossible to know if, the last batter faced will have a 3 pitch at-bat or 9 pitch at-bat. This is the easiest way to handle the pitch count end for a game and allow coaches leeway to plan. If a team has a double header, a pitch may pitch in both games but, his daily limit will be reduced to 71 pitches total in both games combined.

  • Name – Nitin Kumar Class – 12Th 'B' Roll No. – 9752*** Teacher
    ON Name – Nitin Kumar Class – 12th ‘B’ Roll No. – 9752*** Teacher – Rajender Sir http://www.facebook.com/nitinkumarnik Govt. Boys Sr. Sec. School No. 3 INTRODUCTION Cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of 11 players on a field, at the centre of which is a rectangular 22-yard long pitch. One team bats, trying to score as many runs as possible while the other team bowls and fields, trying to dismiss the batsmen and thus limit the runs scored by the batting team. A run is scored by the striking batsman hitting the ball with his bat, running to the opposite end of the pitch and touching the crease there without being dismissed. The teams switch between batting and fielding at the end of an innings. In professional cricket the length of a game ranges from 20 overs of six bowling deliveries per side to Test cricket played over five days. The Laws of Cricket are maintained by the International Cricket Council (ICC) and the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC) with additional Standard Playing Conditions for Test matches and One Day Internationals. Cricket was first played in southern England in the 16th century. By the end of the 18th century, it had developed into the national sport of England. The expansion of the British Empire led to cricket being played overseas and by the mid-19th century the first international matches were being held. The ICC, the game's governing body, has 10 full members. The game is most popular in Australasia, England, the Indian subcontinent, the West Indies and Southern Africa.

  • Leg Before Wicket Douglas Miller Starts to Look at the Most Controversial Form of Dismissal
    Leg Before Wicket Douglas Miller starts to look at the most controversial form of dismissal Of the 40 wickets that fell in the match between Gloucestershire and Glamorgan at Cheltenham that ended on 1st August 2010 as many as 18 of the victims were dismissed lbw. Was this, I wondered, a possible world record? Asking Philip Bailey to interrogate the files of Cricket Archive, I discovered that it was not: back in 1953/54 a match between Patiala and Delhi had seen 19 batsmen lose their wickets in this way. However, until the start of the 2010 season the record in English first-class cricket had stood at 17, but, barely credibly, Cheltenham had provided the third instance of a match with 18 lbws in the course of the summer. Gloucestershire had already been involved in one of these, against Sussex at Bristol, while the third occasion was the Sussex-Middlesex match at Hove. Was this startling statistic for 2010 an indication that leg before decisions are more freely given nowadays? It seemed to correlate with an impression that modern technology has given umpires a better feel for when a ball is likely to hit the wicket and that the days when batsmen could push forward and feel safe were now over. I determined to dig deeper and examine trends over time. This article confines itself to matches played in the County Championship since World War I. I propose looking at Tests in a future issue. The table below shows how the incidence of lbw dismissals has fluctuated over time.

  • Technical Interpretations
    TECHNICAL INTERPRETATIONS LAW 36: LEG BEFORE WICKET There are several points that an umpire must consider when an appeal is made for LBW. The final and most important question is “would the ball have hit the stumps?” but more about that later. (1) Firstly, the delivery must not be a “no ball”. (2) The ball MUST pitch in line with the stumps or outside the off stump. Any ball pitching outside leg stump CANNOT BE OUT LBW. (3) The ball must not come off the bat or the hand holding the bat before it hits the batsman on the pads or body. (4) Where does the ball hit striker? – only the first impact is considered. Quite often the ball will hit the front pad and deflect onto the back pad. (5) If the striker was attempting to play the ball the ball must hit him in line between wicket and wicket, even if the impact is above the level of the bails. (6) If the striker was making no genuine attempt to play the ball, then the impact can be outside off stump. (7) Where would the ball have gone if not interrupted by impact on striker? (8) The ball does not always pitch before hitting the batsman. If it is a full toss the umpire MUST assume the path at impact will continue after impact. (9) The “Off” side of wicket is now clearly defined as when the batsman takes his stance and the ball comes into play – ie when the bowler starts his run up or if he has no run up, his bowling action The term “LBW” whilst meaning Leg Before Wicket also allows the batsman to be out if the ball strikes any other part of his body, even his shoulder or head! All of the above points must all be satisfied for the batsman to be out under this Law.
