First ODI match, Bangladesh scored 95/10(All Out)
In the first match, only 8 batsmen of Bangladesh were out in single digits.

Second ODI match, Bangladesh scored 97/10(All Out)
In the second ODI match, like the first match in Bangladesh, 8 batsmen were dismissed in single digit runs.

Third ODI match, Bangladesh scored 89/10(All Out)
In the third ODI, seven Bangladeshi batsmen were dismissed in single digit runs. With such a batting performance, how well can Bangladesh expect to perform against a strong team in Australia.
They are simply not in the same league. Australian women are a hundred times better and more experienced. BCB has hardly any interest in growing cricket in their country, especially in regions outside Dhaka and also among age groups and women. This year they are supposed to receive $26.74 million from the ICC as their share in media rights revenue. I don't know where this money is going to. It's not going to the national team, because most of the players are only earning a fraction of what their counterparts in Australia or England are earning.
Here we can't blame players for this humiliating defeat with things are going worse because we are having not supportive facilities for the players and things are completely in wrong hands for them with huge among which is coming from the ICC is not in use as it needed for the improvement of the game and quality with men and women both are badly down with no chance of recovery.

We need some good domestic events which bring good awareness about game and also give experience which is important for these players which are going to compete against players like these which are having enough experience and quality in these three ODI we have no triple figure from the Bangladesh women which is really embarrassing with in all games gone badly down, and now we will have same results in T20i.

Manchester United are not consistent with their own games, they can't go 5 straight games without losing a game. While they are waiting for Aston Villa and Tottenham to drop points, I can bet that Manchester United will be the first to drop points. Manchester United inconsistency in the earlier part of the season was the reason why they are still in this position. While they were losing Aston Villa and Tottenham were busy gathering points. It is really going to be difficult for Manchester United to overtake two teams who are determined to grab the champions league spot. But this is football anything can happen, but to be realistic it will be difficult for United to overtake Aston Villa in the top 4.
We have wired season for the Manchester United with their quality and consistency both were on decline which is main point of the talk but now as we are having last few rounds left in this season things are coming on track like in last 10 games from all competitions they won 8 and lost only 2 which is huge change and in remaining 9 games if they are able to give performance like this we can expect another surprise from them which could be possible, but now it's time for having serious work instead of talk and on papers they are having good chance but can they do in reality this is surely needed to be checked because usually we have sudden problems which give them shocking defeats and things gone on wrong side now hopefully we will have something better which is more important for them and their fans.

maybe coins that are still cheap, I can say that Solana and ETH are still relatively cheap now and are very suitable for long-term holding and are also more promising than buying memecoins which are only temporary hype and not suitable for the long term. Many people become millionaires by buying memecoins, but there are also many who losing money there, buying memecoin is the same as gambling, you have to go in quickly if you want to buy it, if you are even a little late, you will lose your money, that's what I think, but remember, this is not financial advice, still do your own research.
Everyone should understand by now that investing in meme coins has more risk than potential rewards, as you said, it's just like gambling with your money because you don't know what the outcome might be. If the meme coin you have invested money in manages to gain traction and gets enough hype, you might hit the jackpot, but if it doesn't manage to do that, you will most likely lose your invested capital.

There are a lot of good and promising altcoins that are still very cheap apart from ETH and SOL because BNB, ETH, and SOL have already managed to go up pretty well when Bitcoin touched $73k, but some other altcoins are still in mid-range which means they can be good for the bull run.

Chennai Super Kings vs Gujarat Titans, Chennai Super Kings team played a great game in this IPL match today. Batting first, they collected 206 runs with the loss of 6 wickets, and today's score is very high. Gujarat titans will have to work very hard to meet this target today. And in today's match, Chennai Super King batted very well, every player gave the target, CSK definitely has more chances to win. However, if Gujarat fails to meet the target in today's match, it will definitely lose the match and lose points. Gujarat and Chennai both the teams have done well in the matches they have played so far and today's match is very important for both the teams as the team who can get the win will be the only one to take the top position. And in today's match if chennai super kings can do good bowling performance then gujarat is definitely possible to beat and i think CSK's win is more likely today.
Chennai Super Kings are very strong side with their batting is having few aggressive new generations batsmen which are giving their best in this season, and I am feeling we will have them at the top spots in throughout season which is surely nothing new because they are doing good work for years today Gujarat Titans give them first bat and their top order enjoy this all with having good opening partnership and then fireworks from the Shivam Dube and Daryl Mitchel helps them for having score of 206 even pitch is batting but still I am feeling this is going to be another win for the Chennai Super Kings after coming back from the Injury Rashid Khan having tough punishment as he concedes 49 runs for the 2 wickets just few minutes then we will have Gujarat Titans in chase.

Update.  Prices were starting to dribble downwards, so I cashed out a few days ago, made about 8 grand on my coins from a month ago!

With todays' announcement of no fed interest rate reduction coin prices popped.  I should have seen that coming, if I had gone all in on a certain coin this morning and sold this afternoon, I'd have picked up $2400.

I'll watch the coin markets and look for opportunities to make more money!  Could use some hot tips from whales or coin pumpers.
Well, the market is very unpredictable and volatile, you can get a lot of profit in a short amount of time when the market is in a bull run, however, that can go against you as well sometimes. So, maybe going all in should never be a choice even if you see something positive coming up because it takes no time for positive to turn into negative and negative to turn into positive in this industry.

You should always take your steps very carefully. You took profit when you saw the market is going down, but you didn't think about the upcoming bull run when the prices would probably go way higher than where they were earlier. So, maybe holding a bit more would have given you more than 8 grand.
146  Economy / Speculation / Re: Buy the dip people!!! Could be last chance for prices this low on: March 26, 2024, 08:49:22 AM
I would say, don’t panic guys. It’s alright if you miss this dip. Bitcoins are a coin which will eventually grow in long run. Hence, whenever you have funds and want to buy the coin, just buy it irrespective of the price. Next if you hold the Bitcoins for 4 years, then definitely you will see a large profit in it. Don’t run for dips and get your into depressions and anxiety. Bitcoins are way more valuable than the current price, in which they are listed. Just keep hope in the coins and do the investment.
Buying the dips is a strategic way of buying Bitcoin, however, it is not for everyone because it requires knowledge and experience from someone to be able to do that accurately and effectively. If someone knows they can't do it, it is better for them to simply do DCA and buy with a specific amount after a certain period which is what you suggested.

There is no doubt that the price of Bitcoin tends to grow higher over time, but if someone can analyse the market and track its movements, they might be able to get more volume for less value which is a great thing because it can maximize one's profits in the long run if they buy and hold their assets long enough.
147  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How high will altcoins fly? on: March 25, 2024, 07:22:53 PM
It depends if there's a trend for that altcoin. If you check the top crypto you'll see that some altcoins didn't increase much so no matter how much btc price increase if the altcoin's potential is not good then it won't fly high as you said or it's price increasing when btc price increase.
When you say trend, that can mean many of them are affected but a single altcoin can also pump on its own if it have what it takes. Alts like that are not always on the top list or should we say that not all top coins are considered as good coins but there are only factors that pushes them there.

So, we must also be careful on those advices that people should always prioritize the top altcoins. Most of the times BTC is the maker of the alt run when its value is already at its peak and it may not be achieved yet for the altcoins to not follow up. BTC pump, the trend, and the likes, can only be a boost but it will still boil down to the potential of the altcoin if how far it can go.
148  Other / Off-topic / Re: Dont chase your loss on: March 25, 2024, 06:05:23 PM
A gambler who is trying to win back his past losses should first consider why he changed his goals. After all, initially such a gambler most likely came to the casino to win. Having lost money he wants to return it. Only he does not realize that now it is now the money of the casino with which it clearly does not want to part with. Therefore, play only on the money that you are not sorry to lose, and better yet, immediately say goodbye to the money that you funded your casino account. So it is easier to accept their loss, and after all, losing is an integral part of gambling.
One doesn't necessarily have to say goodbye to the money they deposit in their gambling account because one can sometimes win something back, but one should be mentally ready to lose that money because in gambling one can either win or lose, but there are more chances of one losing against the house because that is how gambling in general is.

People who chase their losses are those who can't digest the fact that their money is gone, they have never thought that they can also lose their money because they started gambling to earn money which is wrong in the first place. So the very first thing one needs to do is to clear their mind and concept about gambling that it is not a way for them to earn money.
149  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: March 25, 2024, 04:53:04 PM
Manchester City are not here for fun, they mean everything and minutes they will spent on the pitch. Pep Guardiola and his firing team will bring up the necessary points because winning is the ultimate target for them. While Arsenal have also prepared themselves and will be aiming to take the lead, they're not holding but bringing everything within their possession. Mikel Arteta will sights winning strategies amd I would say, this fixture will be tough and executing prediction will be challenging for gamblers, specifically the ones that's acquainted with taking risks.
But the problem now is that we are worried about Kevin De Bruyne's injury. I am sure that if De Bruyne cannot appear in the Man City vs Arsenal match then it could be a big loss for Man City. Because we know that De Bruyne is the best there who can move the ball into the attack line very smoothly and make the squad score more goals. Now the news is that De Bruyne is injured again but what I read is that it is a groin injury or something similar. I forget. But it doesn't seem to be the same injury that kept De Bruyne out for so long since the start of the season.

I hope Man City and Arsenal can play with their best squad. Because the match will not be balanced if one of the mainstay players from each team cannot play.
We have no updates about injuries but still many things are coming out which happen in these friendless because we have too many injuries even few are not serious but still few are going to have problems for the few clubs like Manchester City and Arsenal with Manchester United is also having not good time due to injuries even still they are having some suitable replacement and their players can be joined them in important games with their games are having time, but there are big problems for the top two teams which are going to face each other after just 6 days and game is important for them with it's going to have big impact on league table as well but now after few days things will be clear how they will be manage and if we have no positive news then surely we will have no well-balanced match which is important for the all.
150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Help me to invest altcoin now on: March 24, 2024, 07:12:23 PM
Not the best time to invest in altcoins at the moment market is dipping as of right now cause it is much extended and a pullback may set in anytime soon . So it will be much better to wait for a retest before thinking of buying more altcoins at the moment .
Sure it isn't the best time because there are times where the declines are bigger than it, but it seems fine for him. For now what important is he is buying at some dips, as he can still be able to profit once the price bounces back. When you say extended, I think you mean the price have grown a lot but it's also possible that the recent dips that we see are going to get extended as well. It's up to him if he can wait some more for that but it's also what you called as patience to wait for recovery if in case we buy immediately at a medium-range price. As for the alts to invest, I don' have a long list, so I'm sorry OP but I can only think of one alt at the moment and that would be ETH.

Man City this season is a little different. Because Gundogan had left and joined Barcelona at the start of the season. But De Bruyne's figure seems to be quite reliable there. After De Bruyne recovered and returned, we could see that the attack built by Man City became more well organized, just like when Gundogan was present.

Real Madrid does have a good attacking midfielder like Bellingham who is even able to score lots of goals like a striker. And the young players at Real Madrid can also be relied on. So Real Madrid will actually continue to experience improvement from season to season. But I can't predict which team will score more goals. But if Real Madrid fails to keep Haaland tight, then Man City could score first.
In this season, we have completely different level of quality from the many teams which is surely not surprising because this is part of the game specially while teams are having transition period which is usually happened regularly currently we have all teams in different level performance and things can go either way we can't give favourite tag to any team even we all know Manchester City is currently at his best because Real Madrid is also impressive and things can go into their favour as well De Bruyne is big player, but Jude Bellingham is also having impressive season which can give them good success into this season with many top players are also giving him good back up which is best of the Carlos Ancelotti upsets are surprising performance is also part of the Champions League.
152  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Does pragmatic play bonus buy really worth it? on: March 24, 2024, 01:28:22 PM
I recently play this provider without the use of VPN on Stake.com that’s why I kinda become addicted on this provider. I frequently purchased bonus buy worth 20$ for a minimum bet but the usual profit I can get is just x2 of my buy bonus while I’m frequently lose my bonus buy.

I’m pondering why many user keep using Pragmatic Play especially the bonus buy feature while it’s expensive and the return is not that high considering the max win is very small compared to other provider like push gaming that offers much higher max win.

I admit that Pragmatic games is really cool to play due to graphics but winning wise, I don’t really like it since there’s no 0.1$ minimum bet.
Bonus buys are a gamble that provides you with the opportunity to get high multipliers, but that only happens if you are lucky enough. You can't expect to hit a 1000x multiplier with bonus buy if you are not winning in the normal game because your luck is probably not favouring you.

I have seen people buying feature or bonus in games provided by Pragmatic and winning very high multipliers sometimes. A YouTuber once hit a 300x multiplier on Sweet Bonanza after buying bonus feature worth $2,000 or something. So, whether it's worth it or not depends on how lucky or unlucky you are.
153  Economy / Speculation / Re: 2024 price prediction on: March 23, 2024, 08:31:22 PM
I think with how price has moved ever since the ETF spot approval, price has really gained some momentum to push up from the 40s to where it is now and prompt crypto users to get those $100k price predictions in, but unfortunately price seems to be finding a barrier around the 70K region which means we have whales selling around this region and not until we see 80K....I think price will keep being repelled here as this is a strong psychological price range.
I don't think it's about the ETF since the price were declining after it. I think the ones that is responsible for the rise that we see is the BTC halving because we are now getting closer to it. Before we get to $40k and above, I already saw a lot of people who are predicting for that $100k per BTC, though IDK maybe some forgets it already because we have been idling sometimes, so what you are telling there is still true that the recent rise can act as a reminder to them.

To find a barrier seems a good thing, so that it will not be possibly affected by the threats and other hazardous events. If there are sellers, I don't think whales are going to be the first and if they do, the price will dumped heavily.

Therefore, whether the decision to invest in Bitcoin is wise or not really depends on the timing and individual investment strategy.
Regardless of your investment strategy I think investing in Bitcoin is the best decision for any investor. If an investor invests in Bitcoin without following his proper investment strategy, he will lose much less if he invests in Bitcoin than if he invests in other coins. Investing in Bitcoin must be done for the long term.
One important thing that is needed in investing in Bitcoin is careful planning so that we don't make the wrong decision. You can't just use a simple plan or strategy and not pay attention to the long term. If you want to be successful in investing in Bitcoin, you have to pay close attention to your plan, no matter how small, so that it can be used as a lesson or goal. Apart from that, you also have to put aside unfavorable factors such as emotions and others because this can have a quite big impact on investment.
Yes, if you do not look at the long term or keep your strategy going then the most likely outcome would be losing all your money. I know that it is going to be tough a bit, but with time we are going to get a lot better as well. I know that people are wondering what's going to be the case here, and wonder how we could maybe make some return, but the reality is that we are not going to really have anything better to do that quickly, we should just forget about it and move on.

I know that life isn't all sun shines and rainbows for the people everywhere, but we could definitely make it work if we know what we are doing. I personally believe that the best way to move forward would be just keeping all our money intact with our strategy.
155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Jake Paul to Fight Mike Tyson in Live Netflix Boxing Event - July 20 on: March 22, 2024, 06:02:23 PM
This is the main reason of it all, Tyson would not be fighting a boxer that could potentially destroy his health, so whatever the outcome  of the fight, if it's gonna push through, we should always consider the possibility that it will be just as scripted as wrestling. I mean, there's no reason to expect that Tyson could beat a young boxer, he is great of course, no question about his legacy, but he is "OLD" (I like to emphasized that) and he could not longer go toe to toe in an intense fight.

You know what the outcome would be, both are gonna make big money and both are safe. In short, it's a win-win for them and it's up to us if we will buy the hype and watch it.
The thing is that if it was some old any other sport then we would understand, but boxers do not age well, all that fighting and all that getting punched, eventually catches up with you and you end up being not at your best self the older you get. Look at how Mohammed Ali passed away, dude was sick most of his life at the end there. Because he was punched so many times during his career, and that is a guy known for being able to avoid punches as well.

Also, I do not think that Mike Tyson has to lose, just because he is older doesn't mean he is not strong, dude still has a punch with him, which means that if Jake is smart enough he would avoid Tyson as much as possible, because I believe one serious punch to the chin could knock out Jake very easily.

The Sri Lankan all-rounder was previously out of action due to several bans before returning to the national team and again being suspended for two Test matches. The decision of the umpire must be accepted but he did not accept the decision but he got into an argument with the umpires and was seen arguing loudly which is why the ICC has clearly announced in their Facebook post that Hasaranga has been banned for the next two Test matches.
This Sri Lankan player could not bring anything good for his team or change the decision after arguing with the umpire but banned himself from the Test match. Hopefully his punishment will be a lesson to all other players.
Incidents of indiscipline are on the rise, and I would actually appreciate the stance taken by the ICC. The only thing is that they need to be fair. If they are taking action against Lankan players, then they should do the same against those who are from the pig-3. And in case of Hasaranga, he got what he deserved. Umpires are also humans. Sometimes the decisions can go one way, and sometimes it may go the other way. If you are OK with the first occasion, then you should be courageous enough to accept the decision during second occasion as well.
Here I agree because ICC has never been fair and well-balanced for the all teams which is creating incidents like this, and they need to be having tough rules for things like these because now we need to have better policies which help the all youngsters for having disciplined career ahead of them with this all we also needed he has done this in T20i then he needs to be punished for this format or for all games instead of giving him ban for the two test matches which are completely different games like we have in soccer games players are punished for the all games or just for the relative league which is also fair enough for the player hopefully we will have punishments like this for the big teams and their players as well in near future.

One particular project caught my eye – Rock Coin. The promises seemed enticing, and the community buzz was palpable. Without much expectation, I followed the simple steps outlined to participate in the airdrop.
Weeks passed, and I almost forgot about it until one fateful morning. Checking my wallet, I was so amazed to find a good amount of Rock Coin tokens inside my wallet. That is the first time I received that amount from airdrop, I quickly calculated their value against the current market rates, and to my disbelief, it amounted to over $2,700!
Wow, 2.7K USD, that's a really big reward. Congratulations on believing in the project and being lucky enough to receive this reward. To be honest, I don't know RockCoin, I tried to find it on Coinmarketcap but there are a few tokens with the same ticker ROCK.

We are still in the early stages of the uptrend, I wish you will have more rewards from airdrops and use them effectively in the investment process to create more profits from this growth season!
That's indeed huge especially for only just an airdrop. I also hunt and join lots of airdrops in the past but most that I get are only under 5 or 10 dollars. Like you I haven't heard of that project he is talking about except Icerock Mining. I remember it because it also has a rock word on it and then it was also being promoted heavily in the forum before, however the rewards being given by them might only be minimal.

Airdrops are not new anymore but maybe their hype are coming to life again. I still think that many are not enthusiastic anymore to perform them because the scheme of most airdrops now have changed. They are harder and not free now.
158  Economy / Economics / Re: Early exposure of children to wealth and investments on: March 20, 2024, 02:46:22 PM
It is very important for the kids to know about the investments made by their parents. But at very young age they may not be able to understand these things. So it is always better to make a legally registered will with all the investment details in case anything goes wrong.

I don't think a kid below 12 years will be able to understand these things. But having a registered will usually helps in such situations.
Why not explain it to them according on their age? Use easy words and if possible use cartoonish visualization, in order for us to get their attention. As they grow older, things will only get easier for them but we might still need what you suggested there of having a legal registered will, to make things more formal and like you said, in case something bad happens to us and our kids are not yet on the right age to claim what we will be left to them by us.

Kids being exposed to these stuffs are much better than if they will be exposed to drugs, sex, violence, gambling, and similar negative activities. Can't help but to say this, because I know it's usually the ones that occurs, which is sad to know Sad.

Neymar Messi has left the club, but the club has not stopped their activities, so when Mbappe leaves the club, PSG may hire another player to replace him. Even if they hire another player, maybe PSG can't sign a player like Mbappe at the moment because Mbappe is the best player at the moment. 

When Messi and Neymar played together for PSG, we expected PSG to achieve the highest in the season but we saw PSG exit from the Super Sixteen in the Champions League. PSG has not qualified for the quarter-finals of the Champions League this season without Neymar and Messi, so if Mbappe leaves, who will replace him, PSG's performance will not be blocked at all.
This is matter of understanding with many are feeling things will be not competitive as currently, but they are not understanding there is no stop with any players leave because we have replacement and things like these are happening for the years we have many big stars those were important now living in shadow of their own with replacements are working and game is also on so after Mbappé surely we will have a replacement which will give his best and PSG will be able to stay at the top of the French Ligue 1 with their performance and consistency.

PSG is club with rich history and best available sources, and recently we have few positive changes which are now giving them better success because sometime back no one was sure about their spot into last eight, and now we are talking they can go into final or semifinal as well because new coach is doing good work and positive results are coming as well.
160  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The Meme Sniping Trend on Raydium and Solana: Let’s Discuss! on: March 19, 2024, 06:12:34 PM
always place memecoins for the short term. although we don't know the potential of a particular memecoin in the future. but we have to minimize the risk when we want to invest in memecoin. never put more of your money in memecoin. especially when you see something has fallen and you still hope it will come back in the future.
not all memecoins will survive in the long term, and not all will have the same fate as dogecoin.
As you said, Dogecoin is one of the coins who can survive for a long time, meaning it's also possible to invest on them for the long term. They don't just survive alone but they can also pump sometimes because of the bull run, the re-occurring meme trend, and lastly when they are being shilled/manipulated by some entity or person.

When investing, it's indeed that we need to face less risk as much as possible so aside from choosing an established meme coin and hodling them for a long time, we also need to invest only small amounts. It does not mean that we can not earn big anymore upon doing this but of course we still can, also if luck permits other than our efforts and hardworks.
