Australian bowlers bowled very well. Lyon and Boland's bowling in particular was excellent. But my expectations from the Indian batsmen in this match were much higher. Because a few days ago they performed in IPL. After the IPL is over, the players are usually in a good mood. But every Indian batsman played very badly in this match. Ajinkya Rahane was the only batsman who managed to bat slightly better in both innings. Besides, no other batsman on the team was able to bat well. But I would not say that the performance of the bowlers was too bad.
Most of the Indian fans were expecting better performance than this, but sadly things were gone in wrong way for the batting, and they lost this match badly which is surely not good thing for the fans because after having good record against Australia fans were expecting better performance and fighting end of this final but they all bundle out cheaply and give another final badly as well.
Yesterday when we have Kohli and Rahane at crease many were expecting better start of the day and specially good batting from Kohli, but Boland one over break many hearts and give Australia easy win after dominating throughout all five days in second inning bowlers were good, but batting were not good in both innings.

Kohli and Rahane batted well on day four. Their partnership was quite good. And so many like me had hoped that this partnership would last. Both the batsmen will perform well on the fifth day as well and India will go on to win. But this is not the case. From the start of the fifth day, we saw only the dominance of the Australian bowlers. Indian batsmen may not be able to score even 100 runs. They batted very badly. It was the first match after the end of IPL. No one expected such a bad performance from the Indian batsmen in this match. Team India cannot be considered favorite for the title in the upcoming ODI World Cup as well.

It will be really hard to predict the score of this match, but I think that Verona could do better than Spezia, its team is most complete than Spezia's one. But, as a "final" match, who can knows, also the lucky factor is really
important. I hope that Spezia will win because I don't like Verona's supporters (they are really arrogant).
However, if I consider Verona's performance in the previous few seasons (not this season), basically Verona has always been able to compete in the top 10 in the Serie A standings. But somehow, suddenly this season Verona seems to have lost its good performance, so Verona is only finish in the relegation zone. But luckily for Verona, at least they still have a chance to stay in Serie A if they can beat Spezia in this round. But yeah, because at this moment Verona also doesn't have a big chance to beat Spezia because the head to head results aren't that good either. So. I don't think Verona can guarantee a win in this match either, because these two teams have chances with odds that are not much different either.

This is an interesting match going on right now. Verona has not been in control of the ball for the most time. But they have maximized the chances that they have got with the ball. The first half of the match was absolutely incredible. 4 goals in the first half in total. Right now 81 minutes have been played. The score is 3 - 1 in favor of Verona.

Spezia does not same to have a positive mindset right now. But the thing is the red card for Verona is going to be good news for Spezia. I think they have a chance to at least draw the match. But remember a draw is not going to do Verona any good. This is certainly a very interesting end to the competition.

Congratulations to the Australian team for winning the match so easily. Some of the bowlers in their team showed so much skill that the Australian team won the match by a huge margin. At the start of the team compliment I like to draw the attention of the bowlers. Scott Boland and Nathan Lyon took 7 wickets in the 2nd innings with a brilliant bowling performance.
The best part of this series was Australian Blowing because they have done it perfectly and won it. Specially Lyon took some wickets when it's needy. And the Boland was outstanding by his inswing outswing delivery. I will give the most credit to them. I can see the future of Pace bowling for Australian Cricket team at Boland's face. Best Wishes for him. India was too week to face this guy.

On paper, Manchester City is undoubtedly the favorite in this match. And if we compare the recent performances, Manchester City will be ahead of Inter Milan. But we don't know how City will perform on the field. In the Europa League final we saw Roma lose against Sevilla because of Mancini's mistakes. If Manchester City make the same mistake, they are likely to lose. This is why Manchester City players have to play very carefully. Any mistake will increase their chances of defeat.
Comparing both teams in their recent performances, Manchester City would be considered the better of the two. And personally, I think they’ve got what it takes to win the game and I’m rooting for them to win. I see Peps squad  as a disciplined bunch that barely makes serious mistakes that might cost them a game.
While Man City’s statistics is looking impressive, it would be interesting to see how they would play against Inter Milan. The finals of the UEFA champions league would begin soon. I believe Manchester City is prepared to claim the title.

Guardiola kept his formation unchanged for this match. In this match, Manchester City will play in a 3-2-4-1 formation today. And in this formation, Manchester City has performed well in the last few matches. Hopefully, Guardiola will apply the same strategy in today's match as City played against Real Madrid. Guardiola and City have been battling it out for the Champions League title for the past few seasons. I hope City will not make any mistakes in today's match and Manchester City will win the Champions League title for the first time.

The biggest match of today's Champions League will be held at Atatürk Olympic Stadium, Istanbul, Turkey. We currently know Manchester City as the strongest team in this match. Although they have performed the best this season in all the titles and they are the champions. However, it is difficult to say how well Inter Milan will perform in today's match, but Manchester City will attack enough to win. Manchester City have a chance to lift the Champions League trophy for the first time in the Champions League if they can win the match. Manchester City have never won the Champions League before, while Inter Milan have won the Champions League three times. But today's match will be played well enough by Manchester City and they will fight to win. and the probability of victory in today's match is Manchester City, where the most supporters in various gambling platforms are Manchester City to win and they are ahead in terms of votes.

Mam city are leading the predictions everywhere but how they perform on the pitch today against Inter Milan is the big question.  And it will be visible after only three hours.  What will happen on the football field cannot be guaranteed in advance.  But Man city will definitely have more chances. On the one hand, the supporters of Inter are hoping that Inter will win, while the supporters of Man City are hoping that Man City will win.  It's going to be a big match so it's only natural that there will be excitement.  But let's see which team wins the Champions League at the last moment of the game

If Manchester City make the same mistake, they are likely to lose. This is why Manchester City players have to play very carefully. Any mistake will increase their chances of defeat.
The final match is definitely not a match to be played lightly.  Because after many attempts, one team reached the final after defeating many teams.  So definitely every team will play very cautiously in the final match. Despite careful play, one team loses and the other wins.  Apart from playing performance here I think luck is also very important. Because there are times when a strong team loses to a slightly weaker team, there are many cases like  you take the example of Roma vs Sevilla.

No Champions League match is to be taken lightly. And through hard work, Inter Milan and Manchester City qualified for the final. It was not an easy task at all. And so both teams will try their best to win the title. Inter Milan is a bit less strong but this team is not weak at all. They have a strong attack. And so the team players who play well on the field will win. Also, luck is very important. If luck is not with Guardiola, he will not be able to win this year's Champions League title.

I would say luck was not with Mourinho. It cannot be said that Roma lost with a poor performance. Roma's players performed well. I would even say Roma players performed better than Sevilla. The referee made some bad decisions. Also, the match was drawn due to Gianluca Mancini's mistake. This is nothing but bad luck. Mourinho should not despair and start all over again. Hopefully we will see more organized and strong performances from Roma next season.
This is not talking about luck because Roma's defeat is not too embarrassing in my opinion, they have played their best, better than Seville, the final score was a draw and made the match go to penalties, this is where the winning mentality is needed, it seems that Roma don't have a winning mentality so they can't take chances from penalties, Sevilla already has a winning mentality in this championship so Sevilla is lucky and more worthy of winning the European league this season.
There is still time to improve for Roma next season, Mourinho has given his best and arranged for his team to play with a neat strategy, that's why it seems that Rome was ahead, even though in the end Roma lost in a final, a defeat that was not embarrassing in the final According to me.

I wouldn't say Roma's defeat was embarrassing. Sevilla won the title, Sevilla definitely deserves the title. Sevilla qualified for the final after beating the likes of Manchester United and Juventus. They qualified for the finals by performing well. However, Roma's performance was better than Sevilla's in the final. However, Sevilla were very tactical in this match. And good strategy was one of the reasons Sevilla became champions.
Mourinho has tried his best to win the Europa League title. But he could not succeed. It is expected that he will continue to try to strengthen the team in the coming season.

What a disaster! Again the top order and the middle order batting collapsed. Australia domination continues on the second day as well. I have as of now zero hopes from Indian batters. Travis Head by the way has recorded his name in the history books. He became the first batter to score a century in World Test Championship followed by Smith. The third day would be crucial as we will be able to know where this match is headed. At the moment the road looks very bumpy and steep for India.

On the first day, we saw the dominance of Australia's batsmen. And on the second day too we saw the dominance of Australian bowlers. The IPL ended a few days ago. I thought Indian batsmen can play with responsibility in this match. Kohli has played very well in IPL. But no top-order batsman can collect more than 15 runs. Such poor batting was not expected from India's experienced top-order players. The Indian team is still behind by 318 runs. If Rahane doesn't play big innings I would say India will definitely lose this match.
1229  Economy / Economics / Re: 3x inflation in my life time (Im 30) does bitcoin fix this? on: June 09, 2023, 02:42:06 AM
Bitcoin cannot solve or fix the inflation of the national or world economy, as long as the government continues to print money unchecked, inflation will continue to soar in the future. But bitcoin as an asset is resistant to inflation due to its limited supply and value increasing over time.
So you can use bitcoin to fight inflation your way. Instead of saving in fiat, allocate some to bitcoin, and if bitcoin continues to grow in the future, at least your money won't be eaten away by inflation.

My view may be the same where Bitcoin can become one of the instruments that individuals use to protect the value of their wealth from the effects of inflation. For example, rather than keeping all of the money in fiat currency, one might consider allocating some to Bitcoin. If Bitcoin continues to grow in the future, at least the value of the money won't be eroded by inflation and this needs to be underlined Bitcoin can provide protection against inflation on an individual scale, improvement of inflation as a whole requires broader action, including economic policies implemented by governments and financial institutions at the national and international levels.


Honestly, with population growth and so many problems going on with our society and government, there is no optimal solution other than to print money every time something happens, the collapse of our economy is only a matter of time. Instead of trying to solve the inflation of our country or the world, we should focus on finding ways to protect ourselves and our families from the inflation of the economy. Nowadays, jobs and fiat are no longer a guarantee for us, we should find other solutions, and indeed, bitcoin is a possible solution to personal inflation. I hope people will understand and see the potential of bitcoin.

Mourinho was not guilty at all in that game against Sevilla.
If you check the other games Sevilla had in this season you can easily understand Sevilla was lucky most of the time because they usually played against strong teams when they were not ready for it or when they didn't have some players.
For example, I think if Dybala could play for Roma, there was a chance to see another result.
Man, i do agree with you about sevilla was the luckiest club in the europa league this season. It was always getting its goal from own goal by its opponent even when sevilla was facing juventus as well. I didn't even know where the fuck this kind of magic was coming from but what the fuck was wrong with this club this season? It seems like that all of luck were owner by sevilla at this moment. Dybala already played for roma since the beginning of game. You shall watch again what lineup that used by mourinho since the game was starting.

The problem was if mourinho was changing him. Mou should have played him for full time instead of changing him before the end of game.
Mou didn't just change Dybala, he appeared to be injured after a dangerous tackle that he had. Mou tried his best to lift the trophy for Roma but it didn't go his way. On a normal Mou day, when he first you to get a goal, you wil not equalise it but everything do change and perhaps it changed.
Apart from the above said, the ref wasn't consistent as his officiating was full of notable flaws, I pray that shouldn't be the fate of the Champions League coming up this weekend.

I would say luck was not with Mourinho. It cannot be said that Roma lost with a poor performance. Roma's players performed well. I would even say Roma players performed better than Sevilla. The referee made some bad decisions. Also, the match was drawn due to Gianluca Mancini's mistake. This is nothing but bad luck. Mourinho should not despair and start all over again. Hopefully we will see more organized and strong performances from Roma next season.

India bowlers started well but were not able to continue with the momentum. At the moment Australia has the upper hand. If Indian bowlers are not able to break this partnership then a score of 450+ is on the horizon. Head would try to get his double century at least and Smith would easily get his century. None of the Indian bowlers are looking good against these two batters. Shardul Thakur has been expensive out of all the other bowlers. On the second day the pitch might favour Jadeja. If India is unable to break this partnership then it would be very hard for them to chase the huge target these two batters will put on the scoreboard.
Smith and Travis Head give Australia a great lead as Australia fall by 3 wickets for 76 runs. Smith is batting slowly but Travis Head is batting fast. WTC (2021-2023) Travis Head striked the highest rate 81.91 this final.
If India does not get quick success in the bowling department on the second day, Australia will surely give a lead of 500 runs where it will be difficult for India later on. However, Ravindra Jadeja may be successful in the first session of the 2nd day.
Indian bowlers need to pick quick wickets in today's first session. If the Indian bowlers are not able to pick up quick wickets, Travis Head and Smith cannot break the pair then India is going to face big problems. At the end of the first day, the Australian team made a huge collection of 327 runs. If today's Australian batsmen can bat well then maybe they can declare an innings after collecting more than 550. If Australia is able to bat 60-70 overs today then it can undoubtedly be said that the team is heading towards a huge collection. If Australia plays so well in the first innings, the match may be a draw and the new Australia will win. India's chances of victory are slowly diminishing.
Travis Head's innings was simply incredible! I always love to see him and Steven Smith performing at their best, and it looks like they're determined to take on India's bowling line-up. This duo could prove to be a major threat if the Indian bowlers fail to make an early breakthrough on day two. It looks like against this bowling any team can score more than 500 runs without much trouble.
I wouldn't be surprised if Aussie team manages to surpass the 550-runs. This team is in great spirits and hopefully they'll continue with the same momentum throughout the rest of the match.

Indian bowlers bowled well in the first session of the second day. And now the match is under the control of the Indian bowlers. Travis Head and Steven Smith batted very well. Head scored 163 runs and Smith returned to the dressing room with 121 runs. And even then Cameroon Green and Starc could not stay at the crease for long. Australia has now collected 422 runs after losing 7 wickets. It seems that Australia team will be able to collect 460-480 runs very easily. The Indian team is not in a good position yet. Their batsmen must perform well.
1232  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: June 08, 2023, 11:30:46 AM
It's a real shame for Cremonese, they just got promoted to Serie A this season and in the same season they were relegated again. Maybe those who don't know Cremonese are looking forward to returning to Serie A after waiting for 26 years and in the end they have to be willing to return to Serie B next season.
The series of bad results they got this season made them unable to survive in the Italian highest competition and all the efforts they have made so far have been in vain. I hope Cremonese can bounce back and hope they can be more established if they want to return to Serie A later.
At the beginning of season Cremonese only able to collect 7 points from 18 matches and it makes Cremonese owner have to sacked their previous coach Massimiliano Alvini and Davide Ballardini was appears as new coach and he was contract until 2024 season but apparently Ballardini also can't do much for this team because under him Cremonese still displayed poor performance
Cremonese has win from Salernitana in the last match with scores 2-0 but unfortunately this result cannot help them because since week 36 Cremonese has been decided to relegated to Serie B and 5 wins and 21 lose during this season that was poor records and it makes Cremonese have to relegated because Cremonese only have 27 points and nothing they can do because they cannot keep up and compete against other teams in Serie A
Cremonese will find it difficult to compete in Serie A and that's what they always face only occasionally when they can play in Serie A they can perform better but usually they will only last a few seasons in Serie A and will return to a division where they have played more namely Serie B.
It's not easy to build a team that is strong and competitive, strong finances are the key, without big money, any team will only be a complementary team.
So when Cremonese changed theirs manager it wouldn't help and make a significant change, but they were pretty good in the Coppa Italia because they reached the semifinals but were knocked out by Fiorentina but they managed to get rid of Napoli and AS Roma and that was their best achievement, the rest of their ranking tells how it really is this team.

I don't expect a good performance from the Cremonese team either. Actually, this team is quite weak. Their weaknesses in both offense and defense were quite visible. They scored just 36 goals in 38 matches and conceded 69 goals. They were in the relegation zone due to such a poor performance. And the team has won only 5 matches this season. I'm happy that Cremonese didn't qualify for Serie A. They should form a stronger team. It is not possible to survive in a competitive platform like Serie A with such a weak team.

I don't have any issue with using centralized exchanges as long as people do not use them to stash their cryptocurrency funds.  Once we use the exchange outside of its purpose, it is where the problem starts.

This is something that many people are ignoring. Currently, my bitcoins are in trezor wallet, but I still have to use exchanges for different needs.
I wonder, if we eliminated exchanges completely, would it be easy for us to enter the market, and would it be easy to convert from fiat to bitcoin and vice versa? Because fiat is still the world's main currency, we still use it daily.
Instead of hating and saying it's bad, we should point out its advantages and disadvantages and, importantly, use it for the right purposes. It is used for exchange and trade, not for storing bitcoins. The users themselves are using the exchanges in the wrong way.
That is the thing, buying bitcoin with your fiat at an exchange and then getting your coins out of it is a process which at most just takes a few minutes, so it would be incredibly unlucky that the exchange just happened to collapse right at the moment when you wanted to withdraw your coins on that scenario.

But people are using exchanges as banks and they are storing their funds for the long term there, a huge mistake, because if users keep using exchanges like banks then the more exchanges will resemble them.

Everything has risks, P2P transactions also have certain risks, it is not absolutely safe. Therefore, it is not necessary to place the blame entirely on the CEXs.

Storing bitcoins on the CEX exchange is the users' fault because they did not fully equip themselves with knowledge before investing in bitcoin.
We can't blame exchanges entirely because we are using them the wrong way. No one forces us to store our funds in banks or centralized exchanges.
To be fair, CEX is still a part of the market and has contributed to the market's growth so far. So, instead of just blaming others when we lose money, arm yourself with knowledge and use it for the right purpose.

It's hard for me to pick a favorite for today's match. Bookmakers also offer similar odds for both teams. Both West Ham and Fiorentina score a lot of goals in the Conference League (Fiorentina average 2.57 goals per game, West Ham 2.25), so I'll bet on over 2.5 goals today and count on an interesting show.
Yes indeed, of course it will be difficult to determine which team we will choose if the situation is like this, because a case like this at least proves that we have a neutral attitude. Because, if we favor one of Fiorentina and West Ham, then of course we will still be able to choose the team that we are more favorite to bet on. Thus, I personally feel that maybe West Ham has a better chance of winning the Conference League title this time. To be honest, there are no strong factors that make me believe West Ham. But, I only consider the difficult competition in the Premier League and maybe, it has a good impact on the mentality of the West Ham squad to play in the Conference League final.
My favorite team in this match is Fiorentina. Personally, I think Fiorentina will win this match. I don't think the West Ham team is weak. West Ham is a very strong team. But I have seen their performances in Fiorentina's last few matches. The players of Fiorentina are in a good rhythm. I even think they are in better form than West Ham. However, it is not always the case that the favorite team wins in these matches. Both teams have equal chances of winning. West Ham has a strong enough squad. However, I decided to bet Fiorentina to win today's match.
I think West Ham will easily win the match. When I look at the overall performances and if I have to interpret the matches I watched, West Ham will win without too many goals. The situation may change if a football of chaos is played. Goals from set pieces can determine the match. I can bet on under 2.5 and a West Ham win.

I won't be surprised if West Ham win. West Ham are likely to win. And they have a strong enough squad. But my favorite team is Fiorentina. Because this group is quite stable. And both their attack and defense are performing quite well now. A strong defense is needed to win such an important match. Fiorentina's defense is stronger than West Ham's defense. At least that's what I feel after seeing the performances of the last few matches. Still, West Ham have the potential to win. I think the match will be competitive.

Both the 50-over matches turned out to be one sided affairs today. First it was the turn of Sri Lanka to sweep the floor with the hapless Afghans. Lankans chased down the target with 34 overs to spare, and they lost just 1 wicket in doing that. The match between Karnataka and Namibia also had a similar outcome. Namibia set up a target of 227, and the Indian first class side was able to chase it down in 33.4 overs, after losing just one wicket. Revanna Chethan and Nikin Jose hit centuries for the second consecutive time. Karnataka now leads the series 2-1.

The results of both these matches were completely unexpected for me. After watching Afghanistan's performance in the first match, I don't think they will be beaten so badly. The performance of Afghanistan's batsmen in the second and third matches was very poor. And the poor performance of the batsmen is the reason for the poor condition of Afghanistan. On the other hand, in the second match against Karnataka, the Namibian team won by batting for a target of 361 runs. This was a completely unexpected result. After seeing the result of this match I thought Namibia will win the third match as well. But today the team was badly defeated.

It's hard for me to pick a favorite for today's match. Bookmakers also offer similar odds for both teams. Both West Ham and Fiorentina score a lot of goals in the Conference League (Fiorentina average 2.57 goals per game, West Ham 2.25), so I'll bet on over 2.5 goals today and count on an interesting show.
Yes indeed, of course it will be difficult to determine which team we will choose if the situation is like this, because a case like this at least proves that we have a neutral attitude. Because, if we favor one of Fiorentina and West Ham, then of course we will still be able to choose the team that we are more favorite to bet on. Thus, I personally feel that maybe West Ham has a better chance of winning the Conference League title this time. To be honest, there are no strong factors that make me believe West Ham. But, I only consider the difficult competition in the Premier League and maybe, it has a good impact on the mentality of the West Ham squad to play in the Conference League final.

My favorite team in this match is Fiorentina. Personally, I think Fiorentina will win this match. I don't think the West Ham team is weak. West Ham is a very strong team. But I have seen their performances in Fiorentina's last few matches. The players of Fiorentina are in a good rhythm. I even think they are in better form than West Ham. However, it is not always the case that the favorite team wins in these matches. Both teams have equal chances of winning. West Ham has a strong enough squad. However, I decided to bet Fiorentina to win today's match.

Sri Lanka A VS South Africa A

The Sri Lanka A team is playing an unofficial series against the South Africa A team. Three ODI matches and two Test matches will be played in this series.

South Africa A team won the first match quite easily. But today South Africa's performance was not good. Only 175 runs were able to be collected by the batsmen of the A team of South Africa. It is not possible to win by giving a target of so few runs. As usual, the South African team is going to be defeated. At the end of 28 overs, Sri Lanka A batsmen scored 168 runs losing only 3 wickets. Nishan Madushka remains unbeaten with 102 runs off 81 balls.
The results of these unofficial matches are not that important. However, the performance of these matches shows the future of the team. By performing in these matches, the young players of the country become experienced. And so these matches are important to give experience to the young players. Sri Lanka played brilliantly in today's match. They reached the victory target in just 29 overs. And Sri Lanka opener Nisan Madushka's performance was very good. He was unbeaten with 107 runs. He also batted well in the first match against South Africa. The 23-year-old opener is likely to find a place in the Sri Lankan national team very quickly if he can maintain his consistent form.

I agree with you. These unofficial matches are very important for young players. In these matches cricket board experiments with their players. Young players get a chance to prove their abilities in these matches. And if you perform well in these matches, your chances of getting a place in the nationals will increase.

However, while the South African players performed well in the first match, their performance in today's match was completely poor. They performed poorly in both batting and bowling. Looking forward to seeing how South Africa performs in the last ODI match of the series.

Celta Vigo is very lucky that Barcelona did not play with a winning mission in the last match which allowed them to win that kept them away from the relegation zone. The defeat in the last game did not have a big impact on Barcelona even though their winning record was tarnished, Barcelona played only to meet the requirements as a sign that the season was over. An additional three points allowed Celta Vigo to stay in La Liga next season. Real Valladolid, Espanyol and Elche were relegated to Laliga Smartbank.
Barca finishes the season with a defeat, whereas Celta Vigo defeated the champions at the Municipal de Balados stadium. Although the hosts did not relent in their efforts, absorbing and maintaining closer tackles on the visitors, they couldn't afford to forfeit their chance of retaining a spot in La Liga. Celta de Vigo is staying out of the relegation zone, while the blaugrana have nothing to lose because they are already La Liga winners. Xavi Hernandez's focus is not centered around the game; alternatively, he is focusing on next season budgets and recruiting potential players to the club, with the goal of having Leo Messi on his squad next season.
On a normal circumstance, even if Barcelona fielded all their best players in the match, they wouldn't have escaped Celta Vigo because the energy with which Celta Vigo came into the match was far much higher than that of Barcelona.
Celta Vigo knew that it's either they win or they get relegated,
While Barcelona knows that if they lose they are already Champions. So, there's nothing at stake. The match was quiet interesting as Celta Vigo fans were emotional throughout the match.

It was a do-or-die match for Celta Vigo. This team had the possibility of going to the relegation zone if they did not win this match. And so their aim in this match was to beat Barcelona by any means possible. On the other hand, since Barcelona has already won the title, they are not playing the matches very seriously. As the match was not important for Barcelona. And Barcelona was missing several key players. So Celta Vigo got a good chance to win this match. However, if Barcelona's goal in this match was to win, then Celta Vigo could not have defeated an experienced team like Barcelona so easily. Barcelona won the home match against Celta Vigo.
