This time Pakistan women team tried something different to give chance to Muneeba Ali to bat on three down and on that, there is nothing different because as Muneeba Ali played poorly. Once again she played the same shot and was out making three runs and also waste a full over, in which other player could have made runs.
I think Nida Dar has to avoid her giving to take her in playing 11 because as always failed. Her contribution inside the team is nothing and without her, the team is more good, Nida Dar has to notice this because it helps her as captain to manage the team. If Nida Dar have come up early before Muneeba Ali it would have been much better.

Anyhow, England played too well and here are some key moments in the match.




Yes, she has to take action on it because without her (Muneeba Ali) the team can go in a better way and one player's place can come who can be a new player as today Gull Feroza gets the chance to play as an opener. She played in a very good way in this match, scored 30 runs and had a 60-run opening partnership with Sidra Ameen.

I hope that Nida Dar will give her chance in the ODI series and she will be a part of the next series for the Pakistan women's team because she is such a good player and also better than Muneeba Ali. She had maintained the game in the start for the Pakistan team but later batsmen failed to take advantage of it. I guess the Pakistan team has found a good opener in the form of Gull Feroza.

Yes , the match of this series will start on May 23. The series has been very boring . England won all three matches if this series very well and England is proving that they can  beat Pakistan in any condition and in the next series too , it is the turn of England women. In this series, if Pakistan does not improve its performance or change its players. Then the series will remain boring like this series.to win the Match equal performance is required from both sides, but in the match, Pakistan's blowing was neither good nor batting.both of them had a very bad performance. Due to which they lost the series so badly.

There was a very amazing match (for England) at yesterday between Pakistan women and England women, and this match was once again won by England women so clearly, the Pakistani women lost the series of T20 but still there are hopes for the ODI series with them.

In the T20 series, they gave very poor performance and England's women gave them a huge defeat in this series and also whitewashed to them in this series, Let’s see if the Pakistan women's team can come back in the ODI series, hopefully they improved themselves. However, keep in mind that ODI format suits more to the team that is more technically strong and no doubt England is the better of the two teams.  Next times, these both teams will meet together on Durby on 23th May.

It is not illegal to sell/buy a script; the crime comes when you build, host and knowingly promote the scam service of the script.

As for the copyright of the script, I would image it's null if AB was incorporated.  I don't know the legalities of copyright if a person is convicted of a serious crime, but the script itself may not be copyright.

What does the copyright text say?


Selling the scripts outside this forum is not illegal as long as there is no copyright claims and also the person buying should not have no intentions to make a site to do the crime. (although the intention of buyer is difficult to know at the time he purchases the script).
There are many general scripts available in the market for developing a basic m*x*r site, a crypto exchange or an ICO/IDO site and these scripts can be used for good purposes and evil purposes too.

On this forum, we have to understand whether selling the general scripts is allowed or not and then selling the script of the service that has been banned to discuss would surely not be allowed.

And would you agree with him in implementing gambling prevention education in schools?
All education that can reduce the negative impacts on children both now and as adults should be given from an early age, so that they can have a good foundation about gambling so that even though later they will gamble, they will become responsible gamblers because they understand the bad risks that will be obtained if they gamble without responsibility, but parents at home should teach about this too, not just rely on the school, so education about gambling is currently as important as education about sex.

Well, the education alone cannot help the teens and children stay away from gambling or do not gamble at all. Someone needs to monitor them, and constantly educate them and only then they are saved from it. Gambling is so much addictive and children/ teenagers are quickly get in the trap of the addiction.

The gambling casinos especially the ones operating online do not care who is gambling on the other side of the screen. Their focus is to get money from the gamblers no matter what is their age etc. That is one reason why KYC isn't implemented at the time of deposits, so every minor can come and play  Cry And when they will initiate withdrawal, they will be denied the KYC based on age and their funds will be seized too.
How unfair  Huh
7  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What need to follow to play the stress free gambling game on: May 19, 2024, 09:59:13 PM
Play during your free schedule using the money which you are happy to gamble without feeling pressured or attached on it.

Sometimes even using small money makes you stress on gambling if your mind is not clear while you just gamble due to your urge. You should only gamble if you are completely free such as weekends and day offs from job. I experienced many times of being stressed even if I’m losing small amount because I gamble while I still have a lot of pending work that I need to be done within that day.

I think if we change the approach to gambling and the expectations from gambling are lowered, it will automatically become stress-free. People want to get jackpots and change their life through gambling. This makes them emotionally stressed while gambling and at the same time they make mistakes like doing excessive gambling or revenge gambling. People do not accept that they can be in a loss too and when they lose, they become further dis-heartened.

England Women vs Pakistan Women 3rd T20

Today will be the last match of T20 series between Pakistan Women and England Women. Pakistan Women lost the first two matches by a big margin. Both England women's batting and bowling lines are quite strong. Pakistan women bowling line is slightly better but batting line is very poor. England Women won the first two matches to win the series. Today's match is not so important for England Women. Pakistan women's performance is not good at present they need to improve both batting and bowling line. However, I do not expect anything good from Pakistan Women in this match today. I think England Women will win today. There is a high possibility of Pakistan Women being whitewashed.

Pakistani Women International T20 Cricket team is playing well so far. Pakistani Women International T20 cricket team score is 60 with fall of no wicket. Pakistani Women International T20 cricket team should play good to win this match because that is matter of respect. I know that is very difficult for Pakistani Women International T20 Cricket team but we expect good for Pakistani team . England Women International T20 cricket team gave a handsome target of 177 runs . Wyatt played very well from England Women side and she made 87 runs in just 48 balls and no other batter played good for team.

England won this 3rd consecutive match and they won the series too. Unlike other matches, Pakistani women today at least try to chase the target but fail in the end. I guess the target was too high and as you told Danni Wyatt was the difference between the two teams. She scored at the strike rate of 180+ and scored half of the England's total runs herself. In the first T20, the Pakistani women scored only 110 runs, in the 2nd T20 they were all out at 79 and in this match they batted pretty well to make 146 runs. Yes, they lose the match but then both the teams have no match.
England's team is far more superior to the Pakistan team and everyone expected this result of 3-0. Now the three matches ODI series between the two teams will start in a few days time.

The main difference between forums and social networks is anonymity, and that the forum is written-only.

By definition, a forum is a platform used to bring in discussions, sharing ideas, or anything of a certain category, whether offline or online which means privacy/anonymity is just a feature that we took and implemented according to our needs.

Bitcointalk is special and for no reason I love the old school theme than the fancy UI of other forums and also forums that replicated bitcointalk tweaked some feature than has been requested by the community more often but still people here love to hangout and participate in the discussions than anywhere, probably because the active members with actual knowledge is more than anywhere else and we can't deny the participation of signature campaigns too.

I found this forum user interface to be perfect for the reading, even though it is out-dated but still it is effective. If you're someone who love to read that this is a good forum without any much distractions. Even the signature designs do not irritate you as there are no flashy pics etc. Also, no ads on the forum make it a good ready spot  Wink

Coming to the OP question, its been almost 5 months that the discussion of that topic are banned, but that's the rules and we have to obey on what's allowed to be discussed and what is banned. Still there is a lot other topics to discuss and while it can be frustrating to have restrictions on certain topics, it's good to focus on what can be discussed.  Smiley
10  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not place to make money is place to lose it? on: May 19, 2024, 10:22:59 AM
In general, it is.
The fact is that if you approach this question mathematically, there will be a majority of losers in the casino and only a couple of winners.

Still, if the winners are only a few, many people will still gamble because we never know who those winners are. Every gambler will try his or her luck, in the hope that he or she may be those lucky ones who will be awarded as a winner.
This hope of winning will always be alive and the gamblers will always be hopeful to win the games and change their fortunes.

Most likely, we will be the losers, those at whose expense the lucky ones get their jackpots, and at whose expense the casino gets its profit.
Yes, every optimist believes that luck will be on his side, this is normal. And the terrible fact is that if such a person wins even a little, he will begin to consider himself the chosen one of fate. And since then, many gamblers have started their path of dependence and property losses.

Therefore, you need to be realistic and understand that addiction is more difficult to develop if a player does not place many bets.

The feeling of optimism is so much in the gamblers that they forget to look at the dark side of the picture. They forget to think that what would happen if they are unable to win. I think since making money through gambling seems easy, people still want to give it a try. Some people also gamble for fun but the number of people doing gambling for this purpose is low as compared to the number of people involve in gambling to make a fortune out of it.

RCB did not make a good start in this IPL, after losing 6 matches in a row, RCB has won 6 matches in a row since then.

Oh, What a journey it was for Royal Challengers Bengaluru because they had not seen that time in IPL before that they may have seen in this edition of IPL.
It was such a struggle for them to achieve the place in the top four. Today Royal Challengers Bengaluru have done their work for Royal Challengers Bengaluru supporters and what a celebration it was for all players. When last time, they got a chance to go in playoffs  that was 2022 when they also went to the final match but lost that match also. Hope this time the history would not repeat and they make a new history.  Smiley

A very disappointing year for Mumbai Indians and their way to picking the trophy has been finished from some matches of this IPL but also they are out of the IPL and they could not come at least on the 9th number in the point table.
MI finish bottom

Remember that once at time that was the team who won the IPL trophies 5 times. This time, Hardik Pandya is the most underestimated player from not the Mumbai Indians team even in the World Wide. Also, there is a breaking news which is that maybe Rohit Sharma is no more in Mumbai Indians and in the next year, we may see him on any other franchise.

I do not agree with the thoughts you have for Rohit Sharma because he is a very old player of Mumbai Indians and he led them to victories many times so if he moves on to any other franchise then it would not be great for the Mumbai Indian. After one not-good year, he stepped down from the franchise while there is Virat Kohli who was playing for 16 years for Royal Challengers Bengaluru and tried everything to give their team a cup.
However, we will see this next year that is true or not, I want that Rohit Sharma to play once again in Blue Jersey of Mumbai Indians.  Smiley

According to PCB, there would be two more teams in PSL but after two years in 2026, They have four options in which they will decide on two teams.

PSL to get two more teams in 2026

The opinions are given below:

1-   Faisalabad
2-   Gujrat
3-   Sialkot
4-   Hyderabad

By the way, Hyderabad and Gujrat also inside IPL but these both cities are taking place in both countries, half of Gujrat takes place inside Pakistan and half of Hyderabad take place inside India while the remaining Gujrat, India has and the remaining Hyderabad, Pakistan has. (as i understand the geographical division). Now, it is confirmed by PCB and they cannot be delayed or cancel their decision for sure.

As always Chennai Super Kings were ahead but we could not have imagined that the last match would be such a nightmare for Chennai Super Kings.  In the beginning, Royal Challengers Bangalore were performing so badly that I thought that this team might be the first to be eliminated in this year's IPL, but due to Virat Kohli's amazing performance, they won every last match and secured the playoff stage as the fourth team.  However, it would be a matter of regret for Chennai Super Kings as in the end they could not secure a playoff spot despite a good performance.  However, the target of 219 runs was very difficult for Chennai Super Kings as the Chennai Super Kings batsmen were under pressure after losing the wicket of Ajinkya Rahane and Shivam Dube's innings of 7 runs off 15 balls was seen as one of the main reasons for the defeat in today's match.
None could've thought of such a defeat. Chennai Super kings played well, but RCB played much more better than CSK. I was watching the match, Ruturaj Gaikwad lost the wicket and myself concluded this is going to be a losing match for RCB. Throughout the season, he's the one who took CSK to this position playing in a much responsible manner and in the very important match he made a big mistake. Rachin did his role and contributed good. RCB from elimination to the playoffs with the pressure to win each and every match is really great. Hope this is going to be RCB's season and I believe they'll be the champions of IPL 2024

Incredible, Royal Challengers Bengaluru qualified for the Semi final 2024 and I want that this time they could win this match and if they win this then their bad luck is no more with them.

Also they have good players that can manage the game and hope that this time, they will take off from Chennai Super Kings after winning the World Cup, not World Cup but an IPL trophy.  Wink
MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja, that was the best duo partnership and today Royal Challengers Bengaluru bowlers succeeded in breaking it, this is called a big team, this is called a game changer team and these all known as Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
15  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 18, 2024, 06:05:36 PM
Actual target is 219, but the target for CSK is 201 which is totally gettable thanks to the rate at which they are going and the fact that this is the Chinnaswamy stadium where 200+ scores are pretty much the norm in both innings.

RCB can win this if they keep taking wickets regularly and putting pressure on Chennai while CSK can win if they keep building valuable partnerships. Worth the hype!

If CSK make 201 then they will qualify for the next round. Right now CSK score is 88 for the loss of 3 wickets. To reach 201 they need 113 more runs on 60 balls which is not a big deal as MS ans Jadega are still to bat. RCB have done a good job quite later in there IPL journey. They have won last 5 matches and they looks like winning this game. Let's see if RCB can make it to next round.


This match is going very interesting and I think that till now, Royal Challengers Bengaluru bowlers should let Chennai Super Kings batting to continue without losing a wicket and let them make a partnership but it should not be like the batsmen of Chennai Super Kings hitting excessive boundaries.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru must have to maintain the game at the lowest run rate because if they pick a wicket then MS Dhoni would come and they should not want that to happen. It would be his last match so that is why, he will do his best performance in this match that may result in the loss of Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
16  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL Cricket on: May 18, 2024, 12:16:49 PM
RCB vs CSK

Today is an important match between RCB and CSK, both teams are still on the run to qualify for the next round. A win here today by CSK will take them to next round while RCB need to win and make sure there NRR is above CSK. I would say RCB have winning momentum with them as they are unbeatable in there last four games and based on that momentum odds are in favor of RCB for winning today's game.

Today there is still a prediction that the rain will come into the ground during the match and once again the rain stopped the match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Chennai Super Kings.

When the semi final matches days come then the rain also comes in every single city of India as Ahmedabad and Lucknow but now according to the sources, in Bengaluru rain is also able to stop the match.
Just three matches left including today’s match and these three matches will finish in the next 2 days, as tomorrow there are two matches that we have. Let’s see today we may understand the top 4 spots in this year's IPL and already we got one who is of course Kolkata Knight Riders.
17  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Which one is fun, watching with bet or without a bet? on: May 17, 2024, 09:51:54 PM
Just trying to get the communities opinion based on their experience about the topic.

Personally, a a bettor, I find it very stressful when watching the game you are betting especially if it will end up a losing bet.

If we have the same experience, how do you cope up with that problem, after all, gambling should be fun but why we have this kind of feeling that we feel disappointed when our bet loses?
In fact, those who gamble for fun never think about losing and are not disappointed when they lose. All these people get depressed after taking a bet and worry a lot before losing the bet. They mainly participate in gambling to earn money. When I participate in gambling I don't think about losing and even if I lose I am never disappointed because I only participate in gambling for fun. A person with such a problem can get rid of this problem if he uses gambling as a form of entertainment.

I would say that watching matches without placing a bet on them is fun as long as you are watching your favourite sports and favourite teams/players. The win and loss of the teams may have some effect on your emotions but not that much if you were betting on those matches.

In case we are betting on a match also and our teams win, then the fun is doubled and there is no joy compared to that however if the team loses and we lose the bet, then all the fun is gone and the emotions are turned from happiness to sorrow and regret. The gamblers should know the pro and cons of betting, however, this is not something that can be won always. If the gamblers know that losing is a part of gambling too, only then we can say that watching and betting on a match is more fun.
18  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 17, 2024, 09:29:29 PM
Pakistan team is most likely to win this match today, as they have lost in past matches and have experienced how England women's team will attack them. England Women's team players will start batting in preparation, so Pakistan Women's team players should put pressure on England Women's key batsmen without a single bowling performance. Pakistan women's team players will be able to win as much as they can keep their bowling under control. So Pakistani players need to prepare and perform well from the start if they want to win.

England women team is batting after wining the toss. In first T20 we saw England losing wickets in first three overs but today they are playing with caution. Aftet 17 overs England score is 110, and they have lost 5 wickets. Pakistan team must try to restrict England team from crossing 140 and if they are successful in doing that then they have a chance to win the game.

Pakistan women's team can't even cross the 100 runs and were all out at 79. I don't think we need to keep any expectations from them when the opponent is the strongest women's side in world cricket.

We have seen a very pathetic and ordinary display of batting from the Pakistan girls and really this has made the match and even the series one sided. I was just going through the scorecard of the Pakistan batting and I found there no player who tried to stood on the batting crease and look to chase this score. Even the extras were 13 and if the England bowlers avoided these, the scorecard would have been much worse.
19  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Does the world know about Bitcoin? on: May 17, 2024, 09:16:50 PM
No matter what you tell some people about bitcoin, they will still think it is a scam. So if I can introduce bitcoin to anyone and the person thinks it is a scam, I don’t disturb myself, I will just leave the person, because if I can force them to invest in bitcoin and anything happens to the person’s investment, they will think I am the one who scammed them.
Yep since there are no gains attached to it, we don't need to tell people about Bitcoin or cryptocurrencies, let them come to know about it themselves or from somewhere else. It is not like we are going to get some referral commission or something if they make an investment in Bitcoin, if they think it is a scam, let them be with their thoughts that they will regret in the future like the ones who called Bitcoin a scam and a bubble back in the day who are in deep regret these days.

Never force anyone to like Bitcoin or make investments in it, even if it's a family member, because as you said, in case their investment goes wrong, they buy at the wrong time and see their investment losing value, they are going to blame you for it because you forced them to do it. Don't even recommend it to anyone, let people decide for themselves what they want to do with their money.

One reason why people think that bitcoin and cryptocurrency are scams is that it is not backed by the government in many countries and still, there are countries in the world that will not encourage the use of bitcoin for investments or transactions. Those people take special note of the negative propaganda being done by the government against bitcoin and many new persons who does not have much information , thinks what government is saying is right and they keep themselves away from it.

There are another group of people who may be  scammed by some shit coin or they invest in bitcoin at a time when the price is on the high and once they buy the bitcoin starts dumping and they consider it a Ponzi scheme.
20  Economy / Speculation / Re: When is next significant correction coming? on: May 17, 2024, 08:24:15 PM
So far the price of bitcoin has often been between $60k-$65k, if the price of bitcoin rises above $65k it is possible that it will fall back below $65k. so in my opinion when the price corrects below $65k is a good time to buy. However over time market conditions can change, especially since the Bitcoin halving has started. meaning that at any time the price of bitcoin can rise drastically and waiting for the price of bitcoin to correct can cause you to lose the best momentum to buy bitcoin.

Buying bitcoin BTC at 65K$ or buying at 60K$ makes no difference when you look in the long run. Think that the bitcoin Bull market price is 150,000$, so this difference of few thousand dollars won't make much difference. Yes, the only thing that can ruin your life is that you keep on waiting for 60,000$, the price never reaches there and you miss out on buying bitcoin. That is the most painful thing you can experience in your life.

Another thing that many people experiences is that they keep on waiting for lower bitcoin prices, but when they see bitcoin is going up and up, they buy at higher prices out of frustration of not missing out. In the above example, it is better to buy now at 67,000$ and not panic buy at 99,000$  Wink
