The Arsenal team played well last season. And Mikel Arteta played an important role behind it. His match technique was outstanding. At the same time, Mikel Arteta was able to strengthen the bond between the players. This is why Arsenal's performance was stable. But at the end of the season, Arsenal team lost truck due to injuries of several players. This is why Arsenal failed to win the title. Mikel Arteta must try to stabilize the team. At the same time, the squad should also be strengthened by adding more experienced players to the team. Arsenal also need to tighten up the defense a bit.
They played very well, better than expected, better than two seasons ago. Two seasons ago, they lost a fourth position to Tottenham at a last match day. In the past season, they led the league at a first position in most match days of season and only lost it to Manchester City in very last match days. Evetually, they ended it in top four, better than two seasons ago, and even completed at a second position.
It's impressive coach performance from Arteta as he managed to surprise many clubs in Premier League and even did it with Pep Guardiola and Manchester City. He only failed in a second direct match with Manchester City when Pep made a big chance with John Stones.

Arteta certainly has Arteta to thank for Arsenal's excellent performances last season. Arteta did a great job. He is very hardworking. Arteta has helped build strong bonds between the players by solving problems within the squad. Thanks also need to be given to Arsenal's management. Because they have faith in Arteta. Gave him enough time to stabilize the team. And Arteta succeeded. Arsenal's team was very stable last season. Now the Arsenal management is likely to aim to strengthen the team.

Not Ten Hag and his players, but I think Manchester City is the strongest competitor for Arsenal and in fact, Manchester City has a better chance of winning the Premier League title now that Guardiola has taken over the team and the improvements they have made. In the past few years since Guardiola has joined this team, they have won the premier league on several occasions and they can win it again in the near future.
There's numerous managers that pull a big threat for Mikel Arteta, not only Pep Guardiola. The gunners did an amazing job by portraying a competitive race against the cityzens. Let's say, Gunners ran out of luck towards ending of the league campaign, they started with an impressive start, and not ending lifting the title is something that baffles both the coach, the players and leaving the supporters hope and chant shattered. However they could always returned back to the league with more additional performance, Mikel Arteta is using this time to fixed the weak spots on his squad.

India Women's team lost a last minute wicket to reach their target of victory today. Draw in this match was a really great match it was India Women's team unbeaten by 225 runs. While Bangladesh women's team set a target of 225 runs, India women's team played well in the early stages and unfortunately drew the match due to the fall of wickets at the last moment. In today's match, the Bangladesh women's team is doing an amazing bowling performance in the last minute.

We have to admit that the Bangladesh women's team played brilliantly in this series. Bharat Mahila Dal is very strong we knew that. On the other hand, Bangladesh Mahila Dal was among the weaker parties. However, they surprised everyone by beating India in the first match of the ODI series. It was unthinkable that a team like India would lose against Bangladesh. India won the second match quite easily. But in the third match, we again saw the excellent performance of the Bangladeshi players. Bangladesh women's top order batted with responsibility. At the same time, if the bowlers could have bowled a little better, the Bangladesh women's team could have won the match. They could have created a new history by defeating India.

I mean we can't really trust both the banks and the whales, banks are just no use since the money you save doesn't really earn a good amount of interest on it as with inflation it just wasn't recommended, whales as well hold a huge volume of cryptocurrency so it just makes the investment risky because when they sell it is going to make a huge effect on the market making it drop a huge percentage.



There is no reason for us to trust banks or whales because their purpose is the same as ours is to earn money to take care of life. No one is good enough to help others without getting benefits for themselves, if in their position, we would do the same as them, all need money.

But I disagree with you saying that banks are useless. Do you use banking in your life? Banks are more than just depositing money and receiving interest, as you said they are an institution and provide a lot of services to users. If you need to borrow money then only banks and centralized institutions can lend you money, bitcoin cannot do it for you.

Yeah your right, I guess even though I don't personally like banks it's still a great platform I guess since it is very convenient compared to other platforms and there is nothing really we can do about it because it is a part of how the currency circulates in our country, the easiest way to save money is just to deposit it on our banks I mean it wasn't really a great interest compared to other savings that there was no risk. Here in my country, I could probably find up to 11% interest including the bonuses where you need to actively use the platform in order to get that kind of interest but if you're just going to save your money there, the interest would probably be 2.5% to 3.5%. It wasn't that bad but while you're still saving money it's a good addition I guess. Of course, there are a lot of platforms where you could easily use banks compared to cryptocurrency, and banks/fiat money are just already accepted and trusted by the people, but it is just not recommended to put a big amount of money because we should use our money to work for multiple sources of income.

I don't like banks either, but we can't help but use them as they are still the backbone of the economy. Like it or not, fiat and banking are already a part of our lives, we still need and use them daily, even if we hate them. Although we already have cryptocurrencies, would you admit to me that, to pay for everyday needs or transfer money to loved ones, you still have to use a bank, not bitcoin? So we should not deny its role and importance no matter how much we hate it.

I don't save with a bank account, because I don't care about that meager profit, and I don't trust enough to give them all the money I have. But I will need them when transferring money or I need a loan.

A great battle between the two teams has begun to win the series and tie the series. England is batting in the first innings in the fourth Test between England and Australia.England went into bat when Australia were all out for 317 in the first innings on the second day. Zak Crawley had a great batting performance of 189 runs. Besides, Joe Root and Moeen Ali completed their fifties.
England lead by 67 runs at end of day 2. England score 384 in loss of 4 wickets in 72 overs English play test cricket like a T20 match while Australia all out at score of 317 he played more than 90 overs. Zak Crawley played an beautiful inning of 189 runs in just 182 balls what a player Moeen Ali aslo played a good inning score fiity runs 54. Australia bowling doesn't take early wickets M. Start only Aus bowler pick up 2 important wicktes of England.
The 4th Test is very important for England because if England is able to give a large lead in the 1st innings in this Test, it will become very uncertain for Australia. England has already managed to take a lead of 67 runs.
If England can play the first two sessions of the third day and manage to take a lead of 200+ runs, it will be difficult for Australia to bat in the 2nd innings for two consecutive days.
England collected 384 runs losing 4 wickets. They have already taken a lead of 67 runs. Two experienced batsmen like Ben Stokes and Harry Brook are now at the crease. If these two batsmen are able to start the second day well then the England team will be able to take a lead of more than 200 runs. Ben Stokes is in very good form. He was able to perform well in the last three matches. It is expected that he will be able to play well in the fourth match as well. However, if the lead is less than 200 runs, the match is also likely to be competitive. Because Australian players are also experienced enough.
England met the target set by Australia on their second day with a truly brilliant performance. Right now two great batsmen are trying to play the game to collect runs for the England team. Ben Stokes and Harry Brook if this pair can sustain them till the end then England can definitely give 200 runs lead. And if Australia can't give good bowling performance then England will collect more runs and may be under pressure for Australia next day. But if England can improve their batting performance today, they have enough wickets in hand to score a lot of runs.

At the beginning of the third day, England's two batsmen Stokes and Brook are batting very responsibly. And if the partnership between these two batsmen is long, it is very risky for Australia. These two batsmen are very experienced. And they are capable of playing big innings. England's team managed to collect 410 runs. The team managed to take a lead of 93 runs. Ben Stokes scored 44 runs unbeaten. And Harry Brooke scored 20 runs unbeaten. If Australia wants to survive in this match, the Australian bowlers must take these two wickets very quickly

What are your secrets?

There is no financial secret or formula to get rich other than that you need to work hard, save and use your money wisely (investing). Each person will have a method, a formula, a path to success, no one is the same and you cannot copy someone else's formula and vice versa. Don't try to find the formula to get rich, keep working creatively, the results will come to you.

If you are looking for a faster path to success then I think investing is what you are looking for. I am not saying that investing will definitely make you rich but it may be the fastest way to success than others, but investing is risky, so be careful.

Gundogan is very good for tiki taka after about six years with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City. Even Pep upgraded initial tiki taka from Barcelona to Bayern Munich then Manchester City, the core idea of tiki taka was digested by Gundogan. He will not have difficulty in Barcelona especially we saw Xavi did not change the initial tiki taka too much in one season and a half with Barcelona.
Gundogan will have no trouble with Xavi's game tactics. he will be a tremendous support for Lewandowski. this season could be the most productive season for Barcelona I think. I don't understand why Pep could let Gundogan go to Barcelona. he is one of City's important players in getting a trophy this season. I'm sure it will be Xavi's luck this season.

Gundogan won't face too much trouble adjusting to Barcelona's squad. Gundogan is a very experienced player, while Xavi is very helpful. With Xavi's support, Gundogan may be able to adapt to Barcelona's style of play very quickly. Also, I think Xavi often follows Guardiola's match tactics. Since Gundogan has been with Guardiola for so long, I think Gundogan will play well with Xavi's match tactics. Gundogan has helped stabilize Manchester City's performance. Barcelona will also have high expectations from Gundogan.

What Spalletti did with Napoli last season is so great that many managers who're well respected would beg to achieve so it can hugely count to their Curriculum Vitae.
I don't think Rudi Garcia can replicate that same feat even when there's every possiblity that he can it. Napoli and Victor Osimhen must decide now on the player's future so he can decide wether to remain at the club or move on
It took years for Luciano Spalleti to achieve the fantastic results for Napoli, and lifting the scudetto with Napoli after 33 years without a domestic title was a very memorable occasion for them. Luciano Spalleti resigned from his role as Napoli's head coach, but he did so for personal reasons. When it comes to the incoming boss, Rudi Garcia, he will undoubtedly fall short of the outgoing manager's expectations. However, I believe that if Rudi Garcia is given more time than Luciano Spalleti, he will make good use of his position and provide solid results for the club and the supporters.

Maybe Rudi Garcia will do better than Spalletti. However, time must be given for this. It is highly unlikely that Rudi Garcia will do something extraordinary next season and Napoli will win the title again. Because Rudi Garcia is not yet familiar with this team. And more importantly, several of Napoli's star players have left the team. The effect can certainly be seen in Napoli's performance. The likelihood of consistently good performances from Napoli next season is slim. Juventus or Inter Milan will probably dominate Serie A next season.

England   VS  Australia

In the fourth match against England, Australia's middle-order batsmen averaged 40-50 runs each. However, no batsman could play big innings. At the end of the first day, Australia collected 299 runs after losing 8 wickets. Labuschagne and Mitchell Marsh scored the highest 51 runs for Australia. My guess is that Australia will lose the remaining two wickets in the first 10 overs tomorrow. And will probably be able to collect as much as 320.

Australia vs England match is very difficult to predict. England's bowlers bowled well enough. But we still don't know how England's batsmen will play. No wonder England faced a batting disaster. But I think England will win this match. and would tie the series at 2-2.
1593  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: July 18, 2023, 01:09:24 PM
I never expected Pakistan to provide such a big lead to Sri Lanka.
Pakistan done a supervb job, no doubt early on quick important wickets were a big disaster for Pakistan team as because they required big runs to reduce the trail at that time, but later some really important partnership of Agha Salman and Saud Shakeel put Pakistan on the track, after Salman dismissal on 83 Noman take the charge to help his team to get the target and also help his partner to scored double century, later rest of the player Carry on the momentum and finally get the reward of hardwork in shape of suad double century and a huge margin of 145+ lead...

It was beyond my expectation that Pakistan's lower-order batsmen would bat with such responsibility. In particular, I will talk about Naseem Shah. He may have scored only 6 runs, but he gave a lot of support to Saud Shakeel. Naseem was at the crease for a long time. He scored 6 runs off 78 balls. And at the same time helped Saud Shakeel towards a double century.

Saud Shakeel was unbeaten with 208 runs. If any other batsmen of Pakistan could have helped Shakeel a little, then maybe Pakistan would have collected 500 runs.

Pakistan has taken a huge lead of 149 runs. At the end of the second day, it seemed that Pakistan would not be able to collect even 300 runs. There, Pakistan's innings stopped at 461 runs. I guess we will see another Sri Lankan batting disaster in the first session tomorrow. And Pakistan will win the match.

Bangladesh A   VS   Afganisthan A


A match between Afghanistan A team vs Bangladesh A team is taking place. Bangladesh A team captain Saif Hassan won the toss and decided to bat. After losing 3 wickets for only 34 runs, the batsmen of Bangladesh batted very well. Zakir Hasan scored 62 runs and Soumya Sarkar scored 48 runs. Mahmudul Hasan Joy remains unbeaten with 92 runs. At the end of 44 overs, Bangladesh A team managed to collect 248 runs after losing 5 wickets. Bangladesh will win if they can provide 300 runs target. But if the target is between 270-280 then the match will be very competitive. Afghanistan A team is not weak at all.
1595  Economy / Economics / Re: What will you do when you have Financial Freedom? on: July 17, 2023, 02:49:43 AM
If i have financial freedom i will go to a resting place together with my family, Life is too short and we only live once so we need to enjoy life which is very important,there are a lot of people or a business man spending thier while life to thier works and businesses and they all have regrets at the end because they forget to have time a precious time with the family because they are always busy and when the time comes that cancer strike them they start thinking about the past and have a big regrets so sad.
This sometimes does not occur to some people. namely about the importance of spending more time for the family when we already have financial freedom. Maybe I will also be like you. get a quiet life and avoid all the chaos of the world that makes our lives stressful. relax with family and create a warm atmosphere every day. I want to make a house with a large yard with green grass and fresh air. I want to see my children and grandchildren playing and running happily in the big yard.

That's why I'm so motivated right now to work hard to make more money and keep expanding my horizons. and also quite active in investments that can bring passive income for me.

Maybe people's mindset is different and it will become a habit too, even though the achievements of what you wrote on the first page of the tread were about when we already had financial freedom. Yes. To be honest, I like your style when you have achieved it by spending time with your family while embroidering clothes from wool and laughing together. very beautiful sound.

Most of us had this simple thought and dream when we were still not rich or financially free. But my question is, will we really stop doing business and investing to spend more time with family and loved ones as we become richer and achieve financial freedom? Or when we have a lot of money, and we want to earn more, more because our greed is bottomless. I really doubt those thoughts and dreams won't come true when we become rich. Because I have seen many people claim the same, but when they are rich, they still work harder to earn more, they never want to stop to rest.

That is also my thought, or either they can't stop because if they stop, they won't be earning as much money as they used to. Just imagine those rich guys right now; they are still working hard even though they are rich. You have more life than them, as you will strike boredom, but for them, they are just working hard. The only advantage is that they can eat what they want, they can buy everything, and they can go everywhere they want to relax, but again, after all that, they still work hard like there is no tomorrow.
Money serves people, but people will be slaves to money until death, so even if we have financial freedom, we will never stop. Our greed has no bottom, so I advise people not to wait until they are rich and financially free to help their loved ones or spend time making up for their families. You shouldn't wait to be rich, do it as soon as you can, while your parents are still alive. Are you sure that when you become financially free, your parents will be alive so you can take care of them?

Bangladesh Women V India Women

After the T20 series defeat, India women's team faced Bangladesh women's team today. As usual, the performance of the Bangladesh women's team is weak in today's match as well. In 44 overs, the Bangladesh women's team managed to give a target of only 153 runs. It is not possible to win by such few runs against a team like India. Bangladesh's captain Nigar Sultana scored the maximum 39 runs. Besides, Farhana Haque managed to collect 27 runs. Moreover, none of Bangladesh's batsmen could play well. India women's team will probably lose 1 or 2 wickets today and easily reach the target of victory.
The target was too low for an experienced team like India. And so I also thought India would win very easily. But they lost the first wicket for 13 runs and their two openers for 30 runs. And importantly, they lost the wicket of their best batsman and captain Harmanpreet Kaur for 37 runs. Now I will say that for India to win this match is not an easy task at all. The bowling of Bangladeshi bowlers is very controlled. Marufa Akter picked up two wickets in 5 overs. The match was expected to be one-sided. But the match is likely to be competitive.
What a match!!!!! this match becomes more competitive. It was unimaginable to me that the Bangladeshi bowlers would be able to bowl so well against the experienced Indian batsmen. India Women also lost their fourth wicket. At the end of 15 overs, India collected 54 runs, losing 4 wickets. Jemimah and Deepti Sharma are batting now. India's women's team needs 100 more runs to win. If Bangladesh can take Deepti Sharma's wicket quickly then we will probably see Bangladesh win today.
So far both teams have equal chances to win this match. In 24 overs, India managed to collect 80 runs by losing 5 wickets. India needs 74 runs in 20 overs to win. As Indian batsmen are experienced enough, they still have a chance to win. Deepti Sharma remains unbeaten with 17 runs. India will win if Deepti Sharma and Amanjat Kaur stay at the crease. But collecting 74 runs will be quite difficult. Looks like Bangladesh might win today. But it cannot be said for sure yet.

India Women's team is a very strong and experienced team. It was expected that India would see such a batting disaster against a small team like Bangladesh. If Jaspreet Kaur had been able to stay at the crease, maybe India Women's team would not have been beaten so badly in this match. However, the performance of the Bangladesh bowlers in this match impressed me. Especially the performances of Marufa Akter and Rabeya Khan were fantastic. Marufa took 4 wickets and Rabeya 3 wickets each. Indian batsmen could not survive at the crease against these two bowlers. This is why India women's innings stopped at just 113 runs.

SL Vs PAK

First Test Day 1 Session 1 Lunch break, What a Brilliant start by Pakistan and Shaheen Amazing bowling performance by Pakistani bowlers specially Shaheen Shah Afraid pick up top 3 Order wickets by just giving only 28 runs in 8 Overs also he complete the milestone of 100 wickets at the age of 23 and Naseem shah pick up 1 wicket. Sirlanka had 65 runs and lost 4 wickets before the luck break. Dhananjaya 7(15) and Mathews 12(27) are Playing this Partnership is crucial for Srilanka to come back in this match.
Sri Lanka lost 4 of their key batsmen to collect only 54 runs. The top order needed to perform more responsibly. But Dhananjaya de Silva and Angelo Mathews are now batting very responsibly. This pair has managed to collect 50 runs so far. Dhananjaya remains unbeaten on 23 and Mathews on 34. And if this pair performs well then Sri Lanka can collect big. And if this pair does not play well then there is a possibility that Sri Lanka will lose all their wickets before 200.
Shaheen Shah Afridi is bowling brilliantly today. He picked up 3 wickets out of 4. In 30 overs, the Pakistan captain used 4 of his bowlers. Among them, Shaheen Shah Afridi bowled 12 overs.
The two Sri Lankan batsmen are batting brilliantly in the fifth-wicket partnership. This pair has already made a partnership of 100 runs. And both the batsmen managed to score half-centuries. Dhananjaya de Silva remained unbeaten on 61 and Angelo Mathews on 55. These two batsmen are batting very responsibly after losing 4 wickets quickly. And now Sri Lanka's total is 163/4. They lost the first 4 batsmen to collect only 54 runs. The Sri Lankan team is heading towards a big collection with the help of Dhananjaya and Mathews.
Session 2 Sri Lanka scores 185 in loss of 5 wickets at Tea Break. A huge partnership between Angelo Mathews and Dhananjaya DeSilve 97 runs was very important to take Sirlanka 185 runs score after 65/4. Average bowling only Shaheen Shah pick 3 wickets and bowled well.
The Partnership was broken before the tea break by Abrar Ahmad. This is the first wicket of Pakistani Spinner Abrar Ahmad. Srilanka will look to 350 plus runs in the First inning of the test match and this is a very compatible total on this Galle pitch we will see magic on this wicket from Lankan spinners.

After losing the first 4 batsmen for 54 runs, Sri Lanka were 185 for their fifth wicket. Due to the responsible batting of Dhananjaya De Silva and Angelo Mathews, the Sri Lanka team will probably be able to score big. At the end of the first day, Sri Lanka lost 6 wickets and collected ২৪২ runs. Dhananjaya is still at the crease with 94 runs. If Sri Lanka doesn't suffer another batting disaster at the start of the day tomorrow, they will collect more than 300. And 300 runs on this pitch is a good collection. It is not going to be easy for Pakistan to win this match. The Sri Lankan team is very confident now.

The target was too low for an experienced team like India. And so I also thought India would win very easily. But they lost the first wicket for 13 runs and their two openers for 30 runs. And importantly, they lost the wicket of their best batsman and captain Harmanpreet Kaur for 37 runs. Now I will say that for India to win this match is not an easy task at all. The bowling of Bangladeshi bowlers is very controlled. Marufa Akter picked up two wickets in 5 overs. The match was expected to be one-sided. But the match is likely to be competitive.

Bangladesh VS Afghanistan
Today will be the second match of T20 series between Bangladesh vs Afghanistan. It was very difficult for Bangladesh to win in the first match but they won at the last moment. Afghanistan's bowling and batting line is better than Bangladesh in T20 format. In the first match, Afghanistan's top order batting failed and could not give a target of more runs. If Bangladesh wins today's match, the series will be won, if Afghanistan wins today, the series will be drawn. Afghanistan will try to play well in today's match. Bangladesh will get a little more support playing in Bangladesh's home field. I think both teams have a fifty fifty chance of winning today's match.
In the first T20, Afghanistan were defeated by Bangladesh. As the T20 series will be played in two matches. For that today's match Afghanistan will want to ensure victory so that the series result is a draw, on the other hand since Bangladesh lost in ODI format they will want to ensure victory in T20 and with today's match they will secure the title.

Although Bangladesh won the first match, their overall performance was not good. As usual, Bangladesh's top-order performance was poor. However responsible batting by Hridoy and Shamim helped Bangladesh win. If Bangladesh wants to win today's match then they must perform better than the first match. Otherwise, the chances of winning are very low.
If Bangladesh's top order or openers are able to perform well then I believe it will not be difficult for Bangladesh to win the T20 series. They will win easily. However, Bangladesh's opener's performance is very erratic.

SL Vs PAK

SL- 53/3

Shaheen Afridi 8 overs 3 wickets
Shaheen Afridi can be a formidable form for this Test today which has already proved. If Sri Lanka can't deal with Shaheen Afridi's ball in a defensive mood then it will be difficult for Sri Lanka to get through today. Shaheen Afridi has already dismissed three of Sri Lanka's top-order batsmen who were fit to score enough runs for Sri Lanka.

Edited : SL 58/4

First Test Day 1 Session 1 Lunch break, What a Brilliant start by Pakistan and Shaheen Amazing bowling performance by Pakistani bowlers specially Shaheen Shah Afraid pick up top 3 Order wickets by just giving only 28 runs in 8 Overs also he complete the milestone of 100 wickets at the age of 23 and Naseem shah pick up 1 wicket. Sirlanka had 65 runs and lost 4 wickets before the luck break. Dhananjaya 7(15) and Mathews 12(27) are Playing this Partnership is crucial for Srilanka to come back in this match.

Sri Lanka lost 4 of their key batsmen to collect only 54 runs. The top order needed to perform more responsibly. But Dhananjaya de Silva and Angelo Mathews are now batting very responsibly. This pair has managed to collect 50 runs so far. Dhananjaya remains unbeaten on 23 and Mathews on 34. And if this pair performs well then Sri Lanka can collect big. And if this pair does not play well then there is a possibility that Sri Lanka will lose all their wickets before 200.

Shaheen Shah Afridi is bowling brilliantly today. He picked up 3 wickets out of 4. In 30 overs, the Pakistan captain used 4 of his bowlers. Among them, Shaheen Shah Afridi bowled 12 overs.
