In terms of competitors, spectators, and media interest, cricket is one of the favorite international sports. At the international level, cricket may be played in three formats: a five-day Test, a one-day International (ODI) for each squad of 50 overs, and a Twenty-Twenty (T20) for each team of 20 overs. Various online games that are based on the aforementioned cricket forms allow players to form a virtual squad of real-life players and score points based on how well they perform in real matches. A user gains better rank on the leaderboard if they get the most points in all of the contests they have participated in. Dream11 is one such online gaming platform which offers free and paid contests and thereby gamers can win some cash rewards. So users can select the eleven players and form a team. These eleven players should be selected from the two teams between which the match will be played. Additionally, these eleven players may be chosen from either one team or a combination of the two teams. To identify the eleven players for the T20 cricket format who can provide the maximum score to get the best rank in competitions, many studies employ Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM).In this paper, the TOPSIS method is utilized (weights of the performance factors of players are evaluated by using AHP) to determine the top eleven players.

Trivalent analytes such as Fe³⁺, Cr³⁺ and A^l3+ play pivotal roles in various fields including environmental monitoring, biological sensing, and industrial processes. The development of efficient and selective detection methods for trivalent species is therefore of paramount importance. In this review, we present an overview of recent advances in the recognition of trivalent analytes using simple organic chromogenic and fluorogenic probes. In this review we discuss the strategies employed for the design and synthesis of chromogenic and fluorogenic probes tailored for trivalent analytes, highlighting key structural motifs and functional groups that contribute to their recognition capabilities.

The synthesis of 4-aryl-NH-1,2,3-triazoles in good to excellent isolated yields (75-95%) has been achieved via a [3+2] cycloaddition of aromatic nitroolefins and sodium azide catalyzed by recyclable heterogeneous sulfated tin oxide (STO, 10 mol%) in toluene at 60 0C. Aliphatic nitrooefines proved to be unsuccessful partners in the present methodology.

Due to their high synthetic efficiency, multi-component reactions (MCRs) have shown to be extraordinarily effective at producing compounds in a single synthetic operation. The chromeno[2,3-d] pyrimidine moieties represent important building blocks in synthetic bioactive compounds. The reaction of barbituric acid, aldehydes, and cyclohexane-1,3-diones in the presence of zinc acetate (5 mol%) under neat conditions at 70 0C, yielded a facile and one-pot synthesis of corresponding chromeno[2,3-d]pyrimidineones. Thirteen compounds containing neutral, withdrawing and electron donating groups (H, NO₂, -CN, -Cl; -OH, -CH₃ and -OCH₃) were synthesized in good, isolated yields ranging from 78-91%. The successful involvement of o-, m-, and p- substituted nitro benzaldehydes suggested that steric hindrance had no effect. All of the synthesized compounds are well-known, and this process is unique in that it makes use of zinc acetate, an accessible, low-cost Lewis acid catalyst.

The global rise of life-threatening diseases, particularly breast cancer, has emerged as a grave public health challenge. Recognizing the distinct structural demands of anti-breast cancer targets, we have synthesized Thiophene-DHPMs analogs by scaffold hopping approach to exhibit versatility having the ability to target proteins targets of cancer and their interactions contingent upon the various substitutions on them. We have harnessed MCRto synthesize novel Thiophene-DHPMs (4a-4d) derivatives introducing an efficient Biginelli protocol approach. All derivatives are characterized through techniques including FTIR and ¹H NMR and evaluated by in vitro SRB assay method on MCF-7 cell line, compared against positive control ADR. Molecular docking studies against kinesin spindle protein Eg5 (1Q0B) revealed superior binding interactions and docking scores (> 8 Kcal) compared to the prototype Eg5 inhibitor Monastrol. Compound 4a binds via Hydrogen bond interaction to target Eg5 with ALA-133, PRO-137, TYR-211 In vitro evaluation of results indicates that compound 4a found to be moderately active (GI₅₀ = -4.41) compared to positive control ADR (GI₅₀ = -7.76) against MCF-7 cells. Compound 4a demonstrates significant activity due to the presence of R=C2H5, X= S, and thiophene ring.

The goal of this research is to test the mediating effect of product symbolism on the relationship between conspicuous consumption and social identity formation in the branded clothing sector of young adults. Young adults between the ages of 20-35 who wear branded clothes in Sri Lanka were considered the target population. The data was collected through a survey to find answers to the identified research questions through a quantitative approach. The Snowball sampling method was used as the sampling method for this study. The Sobel Test was carried out using an online calculator to measure the statistical significance of the mediation. The results showed that the effect of conspicuous consumption on social identity formation mediated through product symbolism could be judged as statistically significant. The findings can help with market segmentation and brand positioning. Knowing these symbolic value attachments to branded clothes, marketers can create their marketing mix strategies to provide solutions for self-image enhancement and sustainable competitive advantage from both consumer and company points of view.
