1st T20 Match Pakistan Women Cricket Team vs Australia Women Cricket Team. In today's match, Pakistan Women's Cricket Team batted first and set a target of 119 runs to Australia Women's Team. In the second innings, Australia women's cricket team chased down the target easily in 13.4 overs. Australia women's cricket team performed brilliantly. Australia Women's Cricket Team won by 8 wickets against Pakistan Women's Cricket Team. Congratulations to the Australian Women's Cricket Team
In terms of women's cricket, Australia is far ahead of all the other countries. They started the WBBL more than a decade ago, and this gave them a head-start. For Pakistan, only Omaima Sohail could make a significant score, as she made 30 from 36 balls. Only two other batters (Ayesha Naseem and Javeria Khan) made two digit scores and everyone else got destroyed by the raw pace of Megan Schutt. Ellyse Perry got 2 wickets from her 2 overs as well and then in return made 57 not out from just 40 balls. I guess Australia will sweep this series 3-0. @Sithara007 while Australia currently has the edge, but once WIPL start's then we shall see the Indian team become more competitive too because they’ll play more on a regular basis. Lastly I felt that Pakistan team could have scored few more runs, but they made many mistakes and hopefully they can learn from this defeat and work on improving their performances. |

India VS Newzealand
The last and final ODI between these two teams will be played today. Already India has won the series and they would try to win the last one too for a complete whitewash. Newzealand on the other hand would try to avoid a complete whitewash. They have been struggling with their batting and I hope today they do not do the same mistake that they did in the previous games. I hope Rohit & team management gives a chance to these three players in today's game, Rajat Patidar, Shahbaz Ahmed & Srikar Bharat.
@pakhittheboss it seems that team India doesn’t wishes to experiment too much, because they have named a very strong lineup instead of giving the player’s on the bench a chance to get some valuable experience. Furthermore all three player’s mentioned by you are on the bench, and seeing team India’s lineup I feel that we can expect another defeat for New Zealand. |

LOL.. I don't understand many of the previous posts. Ronaldo is human. He is not machine to score goals in each and every match. The match on Sunday was quite tough, with the Ettifaq defenders managing to block several attacks from the Al Nassr players. The latter won the match anyway. It was the first match within SPL for Ronaldo and therefore I am not much concerned about the fact that he didn't scored. Al Nassr doesn't need any miracles from Ronaldo other than attracting fan support and global viewership. They are already on the top of the points table.
fans' expectations of Ronaldo's arrival at Al Nassr are quite large. their opponents have a solid defense and know full well that Ronaldo is dangerous. they put up an excellent defense and left Ronaldo with no chance to score. score or not, he has played the full game and certainly contributed like any other player. we may not be able to exaggerate Ronaldo's performance. but fans and media always make it look special. @Sithara007 while a lot of fuss is being made about Ronaldo not scoring, but how about the fact that he had made nice assists but unfortunately those didn’t get converted in goal. Furthermore Ronaldo these day’s is just not about goals, he can assist too and inspire his teammates to win because of his champions mentality hence for me he had a decent game and thus I see no need to be behind him for not scoring goals in his debut match for his new club. |

BTW, the ICC has proposed a 6-team tournament for the 2028 Olympics. I am surprised. They should have went for a 3-team or 4-team competition. Anyway they want cricket to be played only by the pig-4. So why include more teams? All the other team sports (including football and field hockey) are having either 12 or 16 participants, and the ICC has suggested to limit the number of participants to a minuscule level. If that is the case, then why even apply for Olympic participation? Also, they don't want any qualifier tournament. ICC wants the 6 teams to be decided on the basis of their rankings. What a load of crap?
I was also shocked with this news that ICC is proposing they want to go with the 6 teams in 2028 Olympics which is surely disguising because most of the sports associations were more teams, but they are still living in 19th Century and never want to come out of this poor mindset which is not allowing cricket to have better exposure and big markets which could be more profitable. Here just they want to live with 3 or 4 countries those have control and rule with their own strategy and policies, but they are missing many points as they can lose this all if they will not allow this exposure and more entries with mostly things can go into mess up, and we can face troubles which could be surely not profitable for the game now in next phase they need to work out on T20i and franchise leagues which is future and have better value for the player future as well. That's true ICC is not ready to grow cricket world and introduce new countries in Olympics like fifa is doing it eith fifa . This is like an experimental attempt by fifa which they are conducting in 2026 and that'll be a successful one indeed but icc is not willing to do anything like that. ICC being the wealthiest organization in the world wants to keep hold of the power. Right now it is few countries that control the authority and decides what to be done. When more teams enter this won't be possible, when countries stand against the authority they were supposed to take decision based on the majority. There is big politics and they never take cricket to the Olympics for sure. @Sithara007 so out of the six team’s probably four would be England, Australia, India, New Zealand and for other two slots Pakistan, South Africa could make it or even Bangladesh don’t you think?. Furthermore how will the other countries who will be left out react to this proposal, because I feel that it’s humiliating for them to be left out and I wonder if fan’s anger may make force ICC back out of this proposal?. |

What surprised me in a good way was the amount I received in the end:  I did know that those Level 2 verified were getting 100% extra on the basic reward, but I didn't know it applied to such rewards as $25. I mean, in shops you can't get a discount on an already discounted item. Fortunately, Stake's policy is different.  if i was a genius player at casino games then i would also be getting these very generous bonuses once i'm verified up to level2 and soon i'll be at level3 but i only do sports betting so i won't get those high generous bonuses that's also why my account is not yet of a high level, i have a question: do all people who have verified accounts get bonus on their birthday or does this only apply for the first year that the person has been verified? I'm just curious to know that I have bet thousands of table tennis matches, I can confidently say that this was a clear line error (pre match)
I had been informing support of the issue throughout the match and instead of investigating, they just block me and tell me “oh odds were right” really? Did the other play take steroids before the first point to make him swing over 300 points? From -222 to +105?
Someone please tell me I am wrong here.
Oh and yes, I’m a 💎 3 player on stake but this one is bad.
Bet ID sport:61476064
It’s a shame that support doesn’t have the common decency to actually look into the issue, they haven’t responded to me in 7 hours now. they already answered you and their answer was that everything is fine, that is, they didn't see anything wrong, but I believe you are insisting that everything is wrong and they no longer have an answer to give you. Dude, they said that without even checking the issue. No one thoroughly checked the issue. @Slow death it’s definitely worth upgrading on Stake, however it’s okay if you’re yet not upgraded but if you’re constantly playing there then it should be on your to do list to upgrade as soon as it’s possible. @Yolo89 if you’re so sure of this you can reach other Stake representatives out here, but if they too deem that your case has no merits then you’ll have no option but to let this go so do try and contact one of them and see what they have to say about your issue. |

Just 3 days left for BTC and ETH price betting. This time the returns are quite good in the current price range. Returns are even better for the range above current price. It's quite tempting and I have decided to place a bet. Will disclose after the betting hours is ended. Anyone up for these bets ? BTC - ETH   For me the odds are too low and if some bad news come, the price can take a big hit and go below 20k again. I agree that odds are not that great and also we have 10 more days left, which means that anything could happen and if I am going to know the range of bitcoin and ethereum 10+ days earlier, then I would expect the odds to be better for my talent, that's not an easy thing to do and if I am going to know it, then I would want better return. However, we should remember that there are a lot of people who said the same range, which is why the odds are low, so if it ends there then it wouldn't be a big achievement to know it, it is not really a talent to know something so many people knew and even risked their money for, hence I would say we would only deserve those odds if we win. I finally decided against wagering because the odds were low, and given Bitcoins volatile history it felt bit too risky but good luck to all who have wagered on this round. Doing some kind of reverse takeover of an older blockchain was a smart move I think and actions since then have been similar to add value to the ongoing prospects. How well that reflects in price near term is not going to be immediate, cant fight the tide of wider pullback in BTC and overall I think the token has to justify its standing long term. BTC recovering probably helps some but I dont think thats entirely occurring just in this year, it'll be longer out.
Fun token price is oscillating, dont think I'll add to that bet at this time it could go either way. I'll take a long shot on BTC going further, a pullback seems more logical but BTC can run sometimes. The next Fibonacci level is about 27k, which is good odds if it went that far. The 200 week which is a big moving average is in the way first at 25k but it could happen for a moment at end month.
@STT in a recession year if Bitcoin prices pumps up then it’ll be a bonus for all the holder’s, but I wouldn’t mind if it slowly and steadily rose because whenever it rises too quickly then it tends to fall a lot and thus I’m hoping that this time there’s no major correction in the prices at least for a long while. |

Arsenal has a great opportunity here to lift the trophy, they are also not playing Champions League so they can concentrate more on PL than City. Should be enough unless injuries happen, Arsenal does not have a big enough bench to cover a couple of important injuries.
It's true that Arsenal is not playing in Champions League but they are still active and busy in European competitions with Europa League, and I think they are one of the favorites to win it. This is not the same level like Champions League but Juventus, Barcelona, Manchester United and other strong teams are there. You never know what could happen in top level club matches like this but my bet is on Arsenal this time when they play with Man United in Premier League. This round has other great matches like Liverpool vs Chelsea and I fancy Fulham against Tottenham and Mitrovic could score again. @notblox1 honestly I doubt that Arsenal will be focusing on Europa League, because they have a clear advantage to win the premier league and they wouldn’t want to risk it by prioritising the Europa League hence I don’t think that they’ll win the Europa League. Furthermore I fancy Manchester United to beat Arsenal, because Manchester United have a history of beating Arsenal whenever they’re flying high and lastly I trust Ten Hag to display some brilliant tactics which will baffle Arsenal player’s and help my favourite club to win against them. |

Tuchel is seen as a candidate to take Conte's place in case of a sacking. But I don't think he would be the only one for the job. I remember the quarrelling between Conte and Tuchel when Tuchel was still Chelsea's manager. But I don't think it would be a hindrance for Tuchel to take the job at Tottenham. It was only between them in the end.
By the way the Manchester City vs Tottenham match was definitely amazing. That comeback isn't forgettable. Scoring three goals in such a short time period was impressive to watch. I believe Tottenham absolutely did their best in this but couldn't prevent this comeback at the end. Mahrez was one of the best players of the day.
@CLS63 Tuchel would be a fantastic coach for Tottenham, but he would demand lots of funds to buy the player’s he wants and one way to get those funds is by selling Kane hence Tottenham can convince him to come. Also what about Poch wouldn’t he be interested to return, and if he comes back to Tottenham then I believe that Kane can be persuaded to stay back at the club. |

There is a great match in the Premier League today. Chelsea will face Liverpool in the English Premier League today. These two teams are performing well in the English Premier League. If we look at the points table, we can see that both the teams are almost on equal footing.
Chelsea has more chance to beat Liverpool since Liverpool's players are still injured, also Chelsea has beat Crystal Palace in their previous match. But I think there's not many goals will be created in this match, maybe 1-0 or 2-1 favor on Chelsea. Don't forget with Arsenal vs Manchester United match, it's will be one of biggest match in Premier League. Manchester United have beat Manchester City in the last week, Manchester United is really have major improvement. But I still think Arsenal will beat Manchester United for 3-1 or 3-2. Fulham vs Tottenham is worth to bet too, if you bet on Fulham the odds is @3.25, Fulham is a strong underestimated club in Premier League. It's true that Manchester united team is having a very good period but arsenal players have the motivation to beat Manchester united to keep the gap with man city at 8 points and that's very important, it will not be an easy match for arsenal but i believe they will beat man united in the end, united will try to at least get 1 point and continue their great come back in the premier league I don’t expect Manchester United to lose, because Ten Hag is a tactical genius and I’m sure that he has something prepared to beat Arsenal. Furthermore Chelsea vs Liverpool is match where both coaches are not only battling for those 3 point’s, but also for their job’s because I don’t think Chelsea or Liverpool board will tolerate more losses hence let’s see who comes on top as both team’s look equal to me given their recent struggles. |

It is clear that if we refer to the odds given by the dealer for the two teams that will compete, Bayern is the favorite to beat RB Leipzig in this match. although, this game is an away game for Bayern Munich. after all, from the H2H history of the meeting of these two teams. Bayern, always dominate the victory over Leipzig. even so, this fight will be more interesting. The reason is, this match is the opening match of the Bundesliga in the second half of this season. For the hosts, this match is a tough match because after all Bayern will be very difficult for them to overthrow. plus, some of their core players are also confirmed to be absent from this match. IMO, the best scenario that Marco Rose can do is play with a defensive strategy. although this is a home game, it is clear that Leipzig is not in a favorable situation with several injured players. For the away team, this match is also not easy for them even though on paper Bayern are superior. The reason is, there are two pillars in Bayern's defense who are absent due to injury. plus, Sadio Mane and Neuer were also absent. although Bayern has other options, it might affect the team as a whole in this match. I'm not sure that Leipzig will win this match, but at least I think the match will end in a draw. @rahmad2nd while Bayern is definitely the favourites to win, but there’s an interesting change i.e. the new signing Sommer will instantly be making his debut and I believe that Leipzig player’s could feel tempted to try their luck since he may be jittery playing in such an important match on his debut. Also Bayern do have other injuries which could boost Leipzig confidence, but in my personal opinion Bayern should yet win it and I sincerely doubt that we’ll see a boring draw being played as both team’s would be keen to seal those 3 valuable point’s. |

Once again, an epic comeback for Real Madrid. After falling 2-0 behind Villarreal in the first half, they were finally able to pull off an epic comeback in the second half. Initially, there were doubts because Villareal's play was so good and tense. They were quite strong on all fronts and overwhelmed Real Madrid players until they took the lead. but unfortunately, they were unable to hold the position and just the opposite, losing in the end. Congratulations to Real Madrid has won the match against Villarreal 2-3.
Despite the win, I expect better from Real. I am not convinced of this team with this coach, and with their performance. I have doubts whether this Real Madrid will go far in the Copa del Rey, the Champions League and the League. I think that Real Madrid needs a coach. Right now, their defense is bad. In addition, the right back and left back don't work together. Even Mendy isn't performing at top form bad. Caminga should be able to build attacks from midfield but he is not. I even don't want to start with his ability at rotating the ball. Here we have to give credit to Villereal because they played open and spectacular soccer, did not close, stall and finish the match when they led 2-0 and everyone could see the excellent soccer and the excellent game of both teams. But Real is still Real and if they want hard, it is difficult to stop them, Manchester City is a witness, so I would not criticize anyone here, but on the contrary, I would highlight the excellent team play of both teams, which gave an entertaining match. The Madrid game is getting more interesting now. The score is 2-2 now and the match has entered a quite crucial time in the last 5 minutes this time.
Madrid got up in the second half after they played quite badly in the first half. At this crucial moment of course there was some hope for Madrid, but with enough discipline for Villarreal it was a little complicated this time around. let's hope they can win without overtime.
The match ended up for the favour of Real Madrid 2-3. But Villarreal really made the first half difficult for Real Madrid by leading the match 2-0 to prove to their fans that they are capable to achieve victory from Real Madrid and other strong teams in this season. But Real Madrid coach gave his players some words of advice in the second half that made the match to changed positively to allowed Real Madrid defeated Villarreal 2-3 to embraced the points from Villarreal, which is a sign that Real Madrid still have potential players that can make things happen for their favour in this season. The overall match result demonstrates how good Real Madrid's team is and how important a winning mentality is. The match appeared disappointing in the first half, with Real Madrid trailing by two goals, but they came back with three goals in the second half. However, the Real Madrid team requires some motivation because, based on recent results, they are not winning matches as champions; instead, they are escaping defeat by playing some draws that are not expected from a team like Madrid. If Real Madrid is to win the Laliga title this season, they must improve their performance. I agree that this was a beautiful comeback by Real Madrid, however they need to work on their defences because it was not upto the high standards set by them. Furthermore I yet believe that Real Madrid can win the La Liga title, because matches like these are a reminder of their champions mentality and thus I believe that this mentality will be the key difference as the season progresses. |

Juve managed to win 2-1 vs Monza which is a normal team. 1 goal difference isn't promising for Juve imo.
The other teams have won their game as expected and apart from Napoli and Milan, the other top teams passed.
I do feel it. Nothing special with juventus was winning only 1 goal more against monza. Monza was a middle tier team. I think that it doesn't matter a lot right now caused by juventus was winning the match and juventis is going to the next round. I feel juventus was declining a lot since the match against napoli. Monza would able to be equal to the juventus. That has proven from how difficult juventus to make the second goal against monza. That proves that juventus's performance is not as good as before. But I think this is quite comparable to the players they fielded in this match, regardless of anything, most of them are young players and reserves so I'm not too strange with their conditions. But it's still quite interesting to see this victory because there are indeed a number of things that have happened such as Chiesa who is starting to revive now and of course their performance is not too disappointing with their young players. @makishart I feel that you’re being way too harsh on Juventus, because if you saw the lineup then you would have known to expect nothing from Juventus but yet they managed to win which is really a positive sign for the club’s morale. A superb goal from Chiesa, what a player.
Without the injury, he got he was already a 100m +€ player and probably in Premier League at this time.
Good result, they played 70 minutes with young players and second line players.
@coinlocket$ indeed he scored a nice goal, and if he remains injury free then he can continue to contribute a lot to this team and hopefully make his way to the premier league as I’m keen to see him play in that league. |

I disagree with this narrative, yes Maguire has fallen down the pecking order at Manchester United but it is nothing related to his form or mistakes because Maguire has had an excellent season so far including a good performance at the worldcup too. The only reason why maguire is struggling is because Ten Hag prefers to play a left footed player at the lcb role; which leaves maguire and lindelof as back up to Varane (who has surprisingly stayed fit all season).
Importantly, Maguire is not leaving anywhere on loan this season.
Maguire is still quite valuable for Manchester United, Erik Ten Hag even rejected West Ham United's offer to make a loan. Maguire is still needed for a backup position in midfield. Maguire, who has made 15 appearances in all competitions this season, is now trying to get into the starting lineup. The 29-year-old has played the full 90 minutes in just two of Man United's competitive games since the resumption of club football after the World Cup break. Although Maguire has fallen down the Old Trafford pecking order, Ten Hag has decided to keep him as club captain. Since joining Manchester United in August 2019, Maguire has provided 7 goals and 5 assists in 159 appearances and he is under contract until 2025 with an option for a further year. I don’t understand why people are struggling to see that Maguire is not the defender he once used to be, and Ten Hag got it right by keeping him away from the playing 11. Furthermore I strongly feel that he should be sold off in the summer transfer window, because there’s no way that he’ll be playing constantly for Manchester United again but I feel that he may offer some value to other team’s hence he should leave once the summer transfer window opens. |

India has lost first four wicket in 37 over with a runs of 234, it's not a good day for king 👑 Kohli unfortunately he didn't score some decent runs, but no woory he will. Now Shubman Gill play a phenomenal inning and score a spectacular century still he is on crease with Hardik pandya, now both 9f them need a long partnership in order to build a strong target of above 300 because still more than 10 overs are remaining where that can easily get them.
Virat Kohli unfortunately got out for just 8 runs today. Due to which India is under some pressure today. But Gill is playing very well and he has already scored 147 runs and so far he is playing. I think India can cross 300 runs with only 8 overs to play. Because they have scored 269 runs in 42 overs so far. New Zealand is bowling very well due to which India can collect very little 4/6. And they go ahead with only single runs Gill played soo cool. he score 208 alone. If Virat Kohli had played well, they would have scored around 400 runs. You expected 300 runs from India but they scored 349 runs. Their performance was very good towards the end of the game. They have always proved that India is the king of cricket, and I think India will win today's match. New Zealand finished the game in 39 overs and they need 119 runs in 11 overs although it is possible to collect this run in 11 overs but I feel confused for New Zealand. Yes it is true that India have played very well and it is natural to play well at home. All teams can play a little better in their own field. And no one is ever king just by playing well in their own field. You have wrongly said that India is the king of cricket. When you think about it, New Zealand have never played worse than India. New Zealand cricket team also played very well. The New Zealand cricket team almost reached the target set by India. If the New Zealand cricket team could have played a little better, then they could have achieved the target very easily I liked what I saw from Gill, because despite losing partners at the other end he continued playing solid cricket and definitely deserved his double century. However I feel that team India should be disappointed with the way they allowed New Zealand to step back in this game, because they could have lost this match and this is a very important lesson for them i.e. they should not take things for granted. |

The match between Barcelona and MU is still a long time, about 1 month later, with that space, anything change can happen with the squad or team. As I remember several years of situations when a team is favored to win like Barcelona which has a perfect squad has loss meet the underdog team. We can say Barcelona is a team that can not have a problem beating MU, but if 1 of the player have a problem like an injured or can't play on that match, that possible MU will take the opportunity to win and go to the next round.
If Manchester United can beat Manchester City, they can beat Barcelona. Compares Barcelona with Manchester City is unfair too because Barcelona failed in Champions League while Manchester City are one of biggest candidates for a trophy in this season. In Manchester United, they have some star players who can decide matches so even they are a little bit weaker than Barcelona, they have not too small chance to win. I agree with you. There are many more days left for the match between Barcelona and Manchester United. And over this long period of time the performance of teams can change. Manchester United's performance was quite stable. But in the last match they could not win against Crystal Palace. So we are not sure if Manchester United can maintain their consistency. And so I would say that Barcelona vs Manchester United match should not be predicted right now.
Many days till their first-leg match and many things can be changed till that day. I really believe they will contribute exciting matches from all good performances they have been showing recently. Europa League is a biggest trophy two clubs can win in this season especially for Manchester United as they are impossible to win Premier League. With Barcelona, they have another chance to win La Liga but Europa League is an attractive goal for them in this season. @blue Snow while there’s time but I believe that Manchester United will be more motivated to win because they will want to win a trophy in Ten Hag first year, and Barcelona would like to focus more on winning the La Liga hence I feel that Barcelona won’t give their 100% in this match. Furthermore I feel that Ten Hag squad is much better in comparison to Barcelona, and with each and every match they’re only improving thus it’s difficult for me to see them lose against Barcelona. |

Liverpool still with a record of one goal and the way the wolves were given Liverpool pressure and serious goals attacks coming from each angle wolves are actually very good considering that Liverpool was just lucky to have scored that goal, wolves performed wonderfully tonight, H. Elliott scored the only goal with support from Thiago even without wolves winning they actually played well.
Yesterday's Liverpool vs Wolves match left a lot of controversies, one of which was the blackout on the field and the sound of sighs (porno) in the live broadcast room. https://twitter.com/FCBRebel01/status/1615447995075420164https://www.goal.com/en-us/news/bbc-porngraphic-audio-on-live-tv/bltd906dea475704dbaanyway, I agree with you that the wolves played superbly yesterday and the strength of the two is even (based on match statistics), but Liverpool was more fortunate, Elliott managed to complete a perfect assist from Alcantara. Not sure Liverpool is supposed to boast that they will win Brighton by revenging the lost give them by Brighton. Liverpool cannot be able to win Brighton in the next round unless they apply one thing and that is strength and determination.
Brighton plays with alot of strength and you will find a way to deal with them in order to be successful against them.
the bitter experience of losing 3-0 to Brighton I'm sure Liverpool will not repeat it again, Klopp is definitely firm with his team. but I'm sure this match will be very fierce because Brighton will be host again in this match. @Renampun to be honest Liverpool didn’t deserve to win, and this show’s that they’re taking backwards steps under Klopp management and now they should seriously consider bringing in a new manager. Lastly I don’t expect Liverpool to extract revenge against Brighton, because now it’s clear that no team fears them and thus I wouldn’t be surprised if they end up losing their match against Brighton. |

There wasn't much interest from the broadcasters for WIPL but still, it found the bid for 5 year contract worth close to 1000 cr INR.
Also, Mumbai is hosting the first season, ideally, it should have been all metro cities but it's fine as they are still testing the waters.
Why would you think a 5 year contract of 1000Cr is not good? This is the first WIPL and trust me it is way better than all others league on women cricket. I am suprised you expected more as non of the male based cricket are in level with the initial revenue generated by just suction of the media coverage. In my opinion, such investment shows the future of women cricket & women based sports in India. A long way to go with a lot of initial support. I hope women cricketers around the world recognise the potential of league cricket in india. For simple one reason. Only 2 broadcasters showed up for the bidding war and their 2 bids were 97 cr and 950 cr. This whole bidding process lasted for a maximum of 5 minutes. If there were more broadcasters lining up for media rights then the price could have been bigger.
LOL.. 97 crore for 5 years? That is less than 20 crores per year and is an insult to the Indian women's team. I am thankful to Reliance and Viacom18 for making this decent bid. I guess the second bid was from Disney Star-Zee Entertainment Enterprises Limited combined. They probably planned something similar to what happened during the ICC media rights auctions, in which Disney took the streaming rights and Zee took the TV rights. But this time they underestimated the market. And now it will be interesting to see how much money the BCCI will make by selling the 5 franchises (auction will take place on 25th January). The share from media rights to each of the franchise is estimated at somewhere between ₹25 crore and ₹30 crore and therefore the auction price will be higher than this amount.
@JSRAW I strongly believe that the other broadcasters missed this golden opportunity, because while the Indian cricket is dominated by males but an almost equal number of woman watch cricket too and therefore I feel that they could have reaped in solid ROI by securing this deal. Lastly if I remember correctly the rates are higher for match ticket’s in Mumbai than other cities so maybe BCCI wanted to secure more revenue’s, and thus they decided to to limit it to Mumbai only just my personal thoughts on this. |

They are saying that because they know the current Australian side struggles with spin bowling. I am sure many other Australian veterans will come up with the same or another weird theory in order to create a pressure on the Indian team, before the series. This has been a habit of Australia before the BGT. With the current form of senior Indian batters it would be easy for them to handle pace attack of Australia. In 2004 Shane Warne was effective against India but Jason Gillespie and Glen MCGrath were on fire in the two matches that Australia won.
You can't compare the current bunch of bowlers such as Cummins and Starc to legends such as Brett Lee and Glen McGrath. Lee and McGrath were able to perform decently in sub-continent conditions (most of the times). I don't know how the current Aussie pacers will adjust to the Indian conditions. In all probability they will be eaten alive by Indian batsmen such as Kohli and Rohit. Obviously their main drawback is with spin bowling. Once they had Shane Warne and Stuart MacGill. Now they have Nathan Lyon and Mitchell Swepson. @Sithara007 I totally agree that today’s generation of Australian bowler’s can’t be compared to Lee and McGrath, however I don’t agree with the part where you say that they’ll be dominated by Indian batsman easily. Also I understand that Indian pitches favour spinners more, but I have a feeling that Australian pace bowler’s won’t struggle that much due the experience they have gained of bowling on Indian pitches while playing in IPL. |

Well, many think that Mexico is just drugs, cartels and things like that... I wonder if mexico would be an appropriate place to organize the world cup since they are a very insecure country:  “ You could hear the shooting – huge blasts, so much noise,” said the Mexican businessman, who had planned to board a flight to the eastern city of San Luis Potosí.[/size] reading the article, and just do more research that anyone can see that this type of news is very frequent in mexico, I can not understand why they are putting mexico to organize the world cup when they know the issue of crimes they have, I know that in every country in the world the number of crimes varies, but the difference between Mexico and other countries is that in Mexico they are dealing with drug crimes in which criminals already have evolved weapons and fight against the police, the brazil for example has this, they organized the world cup, but in brazil drug dealers stay in their territory, they have no power in the cities where the police are, whereas in mexico all institutions are corrupted by drug dealers It's true that Mexico is currently facing a lot of issues with drug crimes and it's understandable that some people may be concerned about the country hosting an event as big as the World Cup. But we can't deny that Mexico is also a country with a lot of potentials and we should also look at the positive side. Hosting the World Cup can be a great opportunity for Mexico to show the world that they can organize a successful event and also to show that they're making progress in dealing with their issues. One way to look at it is, hosting the World Cup can be a way for Mexico to show the world that they're taking a stand against drug crimes. Maybe the criminals will think twice about causing trouble during the World Cup, knowing that the whole world will be watching. It's also important to remember that the World Cup is not just about soccer, it's also about bringing people together and creating a sense of unity. So let's not just focus on the negative, let's also think about the positive impact the World Cup can have on Mexico. If something bad happens during the event, moving the rest of the match to USA or Canada is still affordable. @Slow death I believe that the authorities will do proper research, and will seek reassurances from Mexico’s government that they can organise the World Cup without any issue’s. Furthermore while it does looks risky to organise the World Cup there based on these stats, but I agree with @slapper that Mexico government will not want to ruin their image hence I have a feeling that the authorities may be tempted to give them the permission to host it. |

I have to say that Liverpool are really struggling at the moment. I can see, bringing in Cody Gakpo to the team has not made any noticeable difference to the performance on the pitch. Jurgen Klopp's loss against Brighton was something that was totally unexpected. Due to the fact that they have had a really rough run of form, I have a feeling that they are going to have a very hard time playing against Real Madrid. In spite of the fact that Real Madrid recently lost their final match against Barcelona, overall Real Madrid are in a far better state than Liverpool at this point in time.
Just the fact that Real and Liverpool lost, shows that these teams are not all right. And if for Real Madrid the last game with Barcelona was unsuccessful, and perhaps this is an isolated case, then for Liverpool this is a frequent occurrence, they alternate victories with defeats throughout the season and it is not clear what can be expected from them. Therefore, Real Madrid will be my favorite here, but most likely both teams will score goals in matches, because they have a good attack and not the best defense, especially Liverpool. Those teams real madrid and liverpool have been getting bad results from the previous matches. It can be said that if those teams were declining in their performance. I think that's gonna be a very difficult way for both to win the match in the UCL. real madrid and liverpool will be facing in the UCL. The match gonna be very hard to predict caused by when we were comparing both and those teams are equal at this moment but liverpool has a horrible result in EPL. I can also lose against brighton which was a low-tier club in the EPL. Real madrid is much more favored in this match caused by it has a better result compared with liverpool in the domestic league. @asriloni I believe that sooner or later Liverpool board will have to take a bold call i.e. continue to back Klopp or sack him and allow a new coach to start fresh with the current squad and if you ask me I would suggest that they consider bringing in a new coach. Also I expect Real Madrid to score many goals against them, and thus I don’t expect Liverpool to win against Madrid and depending on the odds wagering big on Madrid won’t be a bad idea right?. |
