abstract：:This study proposed that relative timing of high-alpha (10-12 Hz) left (T3) and right (T4) cortical temporal electroencephalographic (EEG) power levels would differentiate performance groups in a reactive sport such as cricket batting. The time course of EEG event-related alpha synchronisation (ERS) and desynchronisat...
