@Juggy777, ICC does not have the power to in force but they do have the power of suggestion and if they did make women's cricket popular enough and maybe make it more appealing to peopleside then maybe almost every board would have thought about it.

ICC has powers but only in front of weak boards not in front of big-3. Recently they threat Afghanistan cricket board that they will cancel there membership if womans are not allowed to play in Afghanistan. The new regime in Afghanistan ensured that woman's are free to play cricket in Afghanistan, on that ICC resumed membership of Afghan cricket. Of course ICC cant force BCCI for woman IPL since BCCI is one step above ICC.

Woman cricket is boring I say. Nobody want to see it, lets accept the fact. England and Australia are promoting woman cricket since there community may have some interest woman cricket. Other then that I dont think any country has interest in woman cricket. Also its not necessary that whatever men do woman must also do that.

@Theones besides moral grounds advertisers also would have forced his hands as they wouldn’t like to cover a event while this matter is being in the public, either way it’s good he decided to step down and allowed the focus to remain on cricket.

Furthermore Cumming will have to lead by example, and he’ll have to absorb the pressure of leading the team in ashes, and let’s hope that he doesn’t end up in some scandal like the last two Australia captain’s did.

Cummins first encounter as captain will be in Ashes that is starting in few days. In early 2000, Aus were much ahead of England in every aspect of team because of presence of players like Gilchrist, Lee, McGrath etc so whoever is captain wont have to worry about. Right now things are changed and England is very strong team, so Cummins skills as captain will be tested.

If you see ICC test rankings, Australia after playing 17 test matches is at no 3 while England after playing 35 matches is at no 4. England clearly has played more tests compared to Australia. In terms of performance both England and Australia are equally competitor. We expect to see exciting cricket in these test matches.

The Pakistani cricket team has announced a 15-man squad for their home T20Is against West Indies, which are set to begin on December 13th. The squad is the same as normal, but Shoaib Malik, Imad Wasim, and Sarfaraz Ahmed have been left out, while Hasan Ali will not play. Muhammad Hasnain returns to the squad. It appears to be a balanced squad, but there should be some new faces in the team. I think Pakistan needs to improve its spin department. There is no genuine spinner in the team anymore. But, Pakistan will crush the West Indies with the current lineup.

I don't know why Sarfraz is still sticking with team while he is hardly given any chance. He is senior player and must not accept the role of 12th man, we see him coming with drinks for the players. WI is not doing good these days in any format while Pakistan is strong in all formats. So we wont expect to see any exciting game, it will be one sided contest.

Well, the current situation is that Sri Lanka has scored a massive 328 runs for 8 wickets. And Embuldeniya has actually impressed me with how he stayed in the crease for 110 balls. De Silva played really well for his 153 runs. He basically held the SriLankan batting together.

Sri lanka are now in a strong position thanks to De Silva wonderful knock of 153 n.o, it was De Silva innings that has helped SL recover after losing 4 early wickets. Right now they are 279 runs ahead, they should try to give target of 325 to WI. Embuldeniya is blocking the balls well so its possible to De silve to take target to over 325.

I would say New Zealand deserved to draw the match. I was expecting India to win the match considering they had all the world class spinners and still if they are able to last the entire day is their resistance and fight to avoid the defeat. Glad i did not place a bet on India to win the match, i was thinking to place a bet but the odds were not that great and hence i skipped placing a bet.

Well after the match everyone can say who deserve to win or lose the game but as a gambler you need to make that decision before the start f the match or before the book is closed. This test match took turn every single day of its play, placing bets on such match is very difficult but also profitable at the same time.

I don't know what made her complain. From the chats, it looks as if what happened between these two was 100% consensual. But that doesn't mean Tim Paine is innocent. He is a married man, and should have kept away from these antics. Now he can't complain that she honey trapped him. If he had remained loyal to his wife, then none of this would have ever happened. Anyway, at 37 years, his career is all but over. May be he should take a 1-2 years break and after that he may get some administrative position with the Tasmanian cricket board.

Yup you can simply block a person if you don't like her/his texts very simple. But there are series of messages from Tim to that female which means she is replying to his message and has interest. Its Tim who has to face the consequences now. Even 1 to 2 years cricket is huge as he is included in team very late.

@galambo, I think there are countries that are genuinely serious about playing cricket. Actually, ICC needs to take a look at that and make the ICC tournaments much more bigger. In my opinion, they should look at FIFA about how they do it. Because if only these 10 or 15 countries play cricket, ultimately that will be bad for the game.

Making ICC tournaments bigger wont solve the issue since that means inclusion of associate teams that are no match to test playing countries and result is people lost interest in these matches. See T20 WC 2021 for example, countries like Oman, Namibia have shown not impressive performance. But in FIFA WC even weakest team perform up to the standard.
1288  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: November 29, 2021, 05:57:18 PM

Yeah really very sad news this for women's cricket specially for thr player and their fans it is pretty bad.
I dont think this kind of rules can be made that it is compulsary for all boards to organise women's franchise cricket. It is boards personal choose and no one can order anything like that to them.
But yes some steps can be taken that promote women's cricket. Wether by ICC or paticular boards.

It clearly proves that money is supreme priority of every board not the cricket. India is only board that can afford woman cricket leagues even in loss, small boards like PCB, Sri lanka cant afford that. Till now its the choice of board to organize the woman leagues or not and they have not taken any measures for organizing it less Aus and England.
1289  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: November 29, 2021, 05:51:49 PM

Eventually India has given a target of 284 runs to the New Zealand team. The surface of the pitch is helping the bowlers more now. New Zealand has lost their first wickets today and the match will continue on day five. I have a strong feelings that India will win the match. There is a big difference between the betting odds and it is fully in favour of India now.



Congrats to those who made there bet on draw they must have enough funds to enjoy there Christmas and new year. Its proved once again that odds are nothing to predict the outcome of any match. They say and I believe that "cricket is old funny game". India must be disappointed and they should rightly be but nonetheless its an interesting contest.
1290  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will a coin cost if the USA abandon the US dollar today and switch to BTC? on: November 29, 2021, 05:47:03 PM
It will not happen. How are you wondering a centralized government will replace their Centralized native fiat with decentralized cryptocurrency Bitcoin? Centralized & Decentralized aren't friends with each other, it's always conflict. Rather than the USA could launch a native coin which would replace USD if in case of the world totally move to digitalization. How do you think the total supply of Bitcoin is enough to replace of the total circulation of USD?

It will never happen and unrealistic thought by the way.

There are trillions of USD in circulation, even US govt has no idea how many USD are there in circulation as they keep on printing notes every now and then (since US dollar is backed only by the US government). Today USA is super power so we see USD as global currency, may be tomorrow China takes over as super power we will see Chinese Yuan in circulation.  I do agree that the centralized governments will never accept the decentralized crypto.

What kind of post gives good merit? Huh

Merit is subjective thing that you get it for quality posting. Some people have more merits then there activity that's because whatever they post is of high quality. I checked your account you are active over 1000 times here but still have only 1 merit thats because you are not involved in anything that has helped other or increase other knowledge. Try to browse forum, you will see what posts get merits.
1292  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: EOS Price Prediction – How Much Will EOS Be Worth in 2021? on: November 29, 2021, 05:32:20 PM
If there are interest still I'm eos perhaps it is possible but from my point of view I don't think the interest of investors are still in coins like eos, more exciting and profitable projects in the market lately, except eos has something big upcoming to spike such price movement, although crypto is highly unpredictable so who knows what the performance will be in weeks to come.

EOS has issues with its security and centralization as it is highly scalable, the blockchain trilemma b/w scalability, security and decentralization. But the point is when BTC moves every coins moves with it the alt coins and the shit coins. EOS was among top 10 alts at CMC few months (correct me if I am wrong) but has slipped to 50th slot. This shows there is lack of investors interest in this coin.

General population will be the last to accept Bitcoin and they are just following the heard mentality, but smart people can see that fiat inflation is growing and leading towards hyperinflation.
Smart people and sportsman you listed above are thinking with their head, and they are just trying to avoid losing their wealth by investing in Bitcoin.
Alternative option for this is to trust your government and professional liars called politicians, and than let's see how far both ways go in few years.

At least General population will accept it though in the last but what about government and other centralized entities that are showing strong resistance towards BTC and seems like they will never accept it. Those who are entering right now in the crypto market are booking there future reward. One key person OP missed is Elon Musk Smiley

Twitter should be updated by their recent developments. Usually, it is the first social media channel that will be updated. Because people are more into socmed these days. But would appreciate if they can post some updates in their thread also. This will also help their visibility in this community. Because some people are not familiar with their socmed channels, and more on lurking the forum.

IMO these days no channel should be left unattended whether its Twitter or bitcointalk.org. You don't where your potential customer is. Bitcointalk.org has over 2 million users and almost all of them are crypto literate. You dont find so many crypto subscribers anywhere else. The way OP is active here, I am sure he will discuss this with the team.
1295  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: BTC halving party is over, MASS PoC takes you back to ten years ago on: November 29, 2021, 05:01:36 PM
Incentive

MASS has controlled inflation, as there will be 206,438,400 MASS tokens that will be ever generated in 15 different periods. Reward will be halved while moving from one period to another. The first halving will take place at a block height of
13440 and total of 1024 block rewards will be issued with each MASS block before the first halving. The miner who creates the new block through PoC mining is awarded 192 MASS as a base reward.
You can find complete detail about mass here https://docs.massnet.org/en/


Still miners who mine a block are getting 192 MASS as reward or its changed? In my rough opinion with current price of MASS 0.30$, reward for mining  a MASS block is around 60 to 70$ thats quite reasonable. But the real point is how much HDD is required to generate a block? Is there any MASS miner around that can answer this?

If they are following halving pattern of BTC then reward must be down from 192 on every halving. Reward is quite good as price of MASS is stable and in not going down, its showing strong resistance on 0.30$. This clearly indicates that it will go up from this point. DYOR and grab MASS at current price if you think its good investment.
1296  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: MASS is profitable and Cheap to mine ... Here is why? on: November 29, 2021, 04:58:18 PM

Learning is a different thing while doing something practically is a different thing. Let us know here how much reward you get while doing MASS mining. We are not seeing much feedback of users who are doing MASS mining there days.

MASS team is not very much active here nor on there twitter account which is a strange thing. The coin is doing so good in terms of market cap and there marketing team is silent. The only forum where MASS team is active is there telegram group. You may go there and check out updates. Here there are not much updates.

You can go for there TG group if you need live updates and answer of your queries, they have a team of representatives that are live 24/7. You can find all your answers there. Its a good discussion platform for MASS but for updates its not the ideal place to be. I personally follow there TG group for updates.

Its burning token on transaction's what's new in it ?

Every idea in crypto market faces too much resistance in the start and same is happening with deflationary tokens. Remember what happens with BTC in its early days but that does'nt mean its an end. The team need to keep there nerves strong and face every situation with patience. BOOM so far has done good, may be one day we see BOOM as top gainers.
1298  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you guys think 0.1BTC is enough to "make it"? on: November 28, 2021, 07:19:58 PM
If 1 bitcoin is $54000 now, 0.1 bitcoin will be $5400. Can $5400 buy or build a mansion in your region, that answer is left to you. But to me in my country, 0.1 bitcoin can only buy a piece of land, it can not be used to build a mansion to completion, but 1 bitcoin can build a small beautiful house in my area. I do not know of the future, as bitcoin price is increasing, this can later likely be possible.

I think no where in the world you will get a mansion in 5400$. Finding a small piece of land is possible in my country but it will be far from developed area. 0.1 BTC is not a huge amount but if you are a starter then your primary target will be to get to 0.1 BTC and from there on try to reach 1 BTC. The way BTC price is going up we may build mansion if 1 BTC equals 1 million USD.
1299  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Exchange or hardware wallet ? on: November 28, 2021, 07:14:59 PM
What are the advantages and disadvantages of these two methods to store your coins?

On exchange, you have to compromise on the factor "not your coins, not your keys". But they are more secure then wallets since they have security mechanism like 2 factor authentication, KYC etc. So its difficult to steal your coins from exchange like binance then from your wallets. In wallets the biggest problem is once you lost the coin you wont get it back by any means. That's why I prefer to keep my coins on exchange.

My doubt is whether New Zealand will be able to collect 300 runs. They lost one more wicket. They lost their ninth wicket for 284 runs. Now William Somerville and Ajaz Patel is at the crease. They can't bat well. Axar Patel bowled brilliantly today. He has taken 5 wickets. However, with today's third day of play underway, the match is most likely to be a draw.

They were 4 runs short of 300 and india has now lead of 51 runs. The match is now very much interesting, if India can play score 350 runs till second session of forth day and allow NZ to play one session of forth day plus fifth complete day then India has very much chance of winning the match IMO. NZ are very much out of the game now.
