We have prepared preparations for the Finals from now on. Some places to watch have been explored little by little. This became a live betting arena with many people. I, as the committee, am certainly quite excited because until now the applicants for betting between Real Madrid and Liverpool are almost balanced.
Our response to this final phenomenon is very different from usual, so it's a bit more fanatical of the pitch among fans.  Grin
It is going to be a great final and I hope this match leaves up to the hype and expectation that it has created. I think Real Madrid has a very good chance of winning because their player had a good amount of rest before the final. But on the other hand, I believe Liverpool has a better squad and after losing the English Premier League title to Manchester City they will be really concentrated and determined to win the final.
2 days of rest doesn't really matter that much. Liverpool will have about a week worth of rest, that should be more than enough if you ask me. I personally believe that the difference will not be on the rest but the unexpected moves.

Real literally destroyed all teams by finding a goal out of nowhere, they do not look like they are dominating at all, they look like they are barely surviving, they look like they are about to lose by 3 goals at any given moment, and then BAM! they score a goal, if you are not ready then another one as well! Which is totally unexpected and it should not be really seen as something that we can guess on this finals neither.

@jaberwock that’s Carlo’s Real Madrid side for you he gave no big statements kept himself grounded, and slowly got Real Madrid the league title and possibly he’ll help Real Madrid win the finals too. However for Liverpool they have an angry Salah who’s fit and is gunning for revenge, and he could turn the tide in their favour hence this match is definitely going to be one of the best match we have seen in this season.

The market is unpredictable, and it's hard to predict the BTC price this time. Honestly, I probably won't be placing any bets on the BTC price this month, although it looks like bitcoin has been consolidating around $30k for over 9 days now, and there is a chance that the BTC price may rise to the range of $32.5k-$35k by the end of the month.
Bitcoin price went down unexpectedly at the first half of this month. The price was too much volatile at the moment. But now it is showing a bit stability around the $30k price range. I haven't placed any early bet as the movement of BTC price was hard to determine. I was waiting for the last day to place my bets. Bitcoin price betting option will be closed after 34 hours. I just placed 3 bets on different price range. I placed my bets on 25k to 30k, 30k to 32.5k and 32.5k to 35k price ranges. Currently the outcome odds are above 3× for those price ranges. It will be profitable for me if I win any of those bets.

I bet too early so that I can enjoy time wager but soon after the prices went down rapidly. There were odds and ranges, which were very normal but now look at it, the prices are so reluctant now that no one gonna enjoy the winning. Rarely there were some people (surprise surprise) who had put the bets on such low prices, wondering how they got the gut feelings like. Because at the time it was too much less possible to bet on that range. But obviously they have high odds now, very high multipler since it was impossible price range.  Cheesy

I think the price range between $25k to $30k and $30k to $32.5k are the ones where the btc prices will end for this month, and I don’t expect btc prices to breach $25k levels this month. Furthermore if some positive news comes then only will we see some upward movements in btc prices, but with so much volatility in the crypto market I believe that it’s prices won’t exceed the $32.5k range at the month end.

Drake vs Stake - REMINDER

Drake has announced his 1st Stake live stream will be held at 9pm EDT this Thursday @ twitch.tv/StakeDrake

https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd2Pg0Gu4GH/

"Finally!!! @stake I’m gonna buss your head run up the racks and blessss my people sorry ahead of time 😂😂😂 DRAKE VS STAKE"

 - Drake

With over $1,000,000 in giveaways planned, make sure you witness one of the most incredible live streams to date. A lot of planning & work has gone into making this a very special event!

seems that drake is pulling more players in stake. i guess some of these previously fiat-based gamblers are now trying their hands in crypto casinos. for sure, drake is getting good payout here which he can use for betting again in stake.  Tongue
i just hope these young followers of drake know what they are getting into if they try to explore gambling.
and to add also, some are saying that this live stream may be rigged. i don't think so. stake won't ruin their reputation now that they partnered with a known personality. not because i am a promoter of stake. but building your name in this industry is not a walk in the park. and ruining it one time? nope.

I don’t think that Drake can take any responsibility for those user’s who decide to register on Stake, because they’re not being forced to join and they’re joining exercising their free will. Also that’s a baseless claim about Stake streams being rigged, because this forum has many expert user’s who would have exposed it long time ago, and as you have correctly said Stake has built it’s reputation here and hence I believe that Stake would never do such things.

Go pick again guys, that blunder with United-Chelsea has been taken care of so I don't know what happened with your pick.

My choices are Saka, Zaha, Toney, Diaz (I don't think Salah will be playing so it was him or Mane for me), Vardy, Son, De Bruyne

Time to win at least free bet in this last instance. I don't think I got single free bet this season from this promo Smiley

Just checked and all my picks have been preserved but thanks for the shout out! Salah's actually a poor choice given his weird run of form lately but I just thought maybe he'd have a go at a penalty if we get one.

This season was really weird, yeah, the big winner in round 1. I think I got one freebet which I turned into a winning acca in first half of season but definitely not my better performances. It's the third season we've had MajSev I think? Good memories of the very first one. Back then freebets were something like 100mbtc? Too lazy to look up but our run in UCL made me a lot of green memories!

@Trofo I feel that you’ll get at least 5 right easily, because those 5 (Saka, Zaha, Vardy, De Bruyne, Son) are expected to score and it’ll take some exceptional defending to stop them from scoring. @buwaytress I’m also keenly awaiting the champions league finale, and if Salah is fully fit then I’ll expect him to give a hard time to Real Madrid defenders, and lastly is there any special promo from FJ for the finals?.

So are you facing any issue with password and logging into Roobet ?
Roobet is one of my favorite gambling platform and i often play there along with few other gambling sites.

Yes only the first time I login after a few months of leaving this site I just found out this is their attempt to keep user accounts safe
I suspect this will happen if we don't log in for some time to ensure that we are the owner of the account security code will be sent to email
If we don't enable 2FA, this will be very helpful hackers are not easy to take over accounts.
This could be a good security, Roobet is protecting the user and if you didn’t activate those security feauture, Roobet will still require you to do do. I didn’t experience this one since I open my account from time to time though I rarely playing but still my account is safe and intact. Also, basic KYC will require as far as I know if you haven’t done any, so check it and try to submit the needed information so you can now access your account.


The safety of your account is made up of Roobet security system and your account protection. If you can not keep your account information safely, Roobet will hardly to save you. Exchanges can not protect you even they have detection on suspicious activities. Sometimes their protection works, sometimes does not work perfectly as expected by design.

Therefore, you as a user are the one will have to protect your account and money first and in the end.

I believe that these are really good measures and even if as an user one may feel that it’s not good, they should see the bigger picture and understand that Roobet is trying to take extra steps to protect them. Furthermore this will also end the claims of my account was hacked, and all their user’s should support this initiative to protect their accounts.

Belated well done on the Sportsbet + Arsenal visit to Lagos, just saw the video, you+them know how to party, but we knew that already!

Trofo, CLS63, looks like I'm missing out on Club Talk shenanigans. I do get into the right-clicking > Translate a lot on those channels. You always get the most colourful people in gamblers, huh.

Steve: special on Norwich + Arsenal win for UCL glory please?

@buwaytress are you planning to wager on Arsenal, and it won’t be a bad bet considering they badly need to win to keep their hopes alive of playing in the champions league next year.

No need to learn more about EPL, this was just a separate deal made between 2 clubs, if City win the title. And that's because they included that clause as part of the deal for Grealish to transfer from Villa to City.

The way the table stands right now, it's guaranteed if City win the last game agains Aston Villa. Liverpool could still draw or lose and City will win regardless, so Villa could still win with City winning the title, then the bonus is theirs.

Similarly my team Barca bought from Liverpool Coutinho and there were supposed to be bonus payments for achievements, but apparently none of them were true (clubs denied it, but I bet it actually happened), but t's very common for player sales to have bonus terms, instead of price.
That makes sense. In that case Villa sure would love to get that extra bonus, but since it is unknown like you said, they wouldn't be really holding their breath for it, I am sure that they would be doing a lot better if they just ranked better and would prefer that. It means that they will do their best but I am sure that they still wouldn't care about who is the winner but also fail to win since it's City we are talking about.

I mean City could beat almost anyone, maybe have trouble against Liverpool as we have seen before, but that's about it, I do not think that it would matter to them if it s Chelsea of Villa, if it's about winning the title, they will win no matter what.

@slaman29 earlier these bonus or buyout clauses weren’t that common, but recently they’re included in almost every player’s contract, and they only come to light when they’re completed hence I feel that you’re right Villa might have inserted some bonus clause in Grealish contract and we’ll come to know post the game.
1747  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2021/2022 on: May 21, 2022, 12:55:26 PM
It would have be nice if Arsenal win and get Champion's League spot, that will only be possible if Tottenham Hotspur loses against Norwich FC. Those three losses in a row messed the season up for Arsenal, I think Arsenal should count their loss and look forward to Europa League, UEFA Champion's League is gone.

Arsenal may Missed the champions league spot next season due to their recent loss against Newcastle which they were defeated with 2 goals. Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta would look forward to win the last game of the League, perhaps they could still qualify for the Champions League only if Tottenham loses their game. However, Anthonio Conte don't have a room for draw in their last game, they precisely need the win. If gunners failed to secure the champions league spot, they will settle for Europa League next season.

I feel the champions league door is yet open for Arsenal, because some Tottenham player’s are effected due to the virus but their coach says it won’t effect their plan, however it’s pertinent to note that Kane is one of the player who’s not well and if he can’t recover in time then it’ll be difficult for Tottenham to win.

It's less than 8 hours away and Manchester City and Liverpool are playong it out for the championship. Actually, they have been doing it for many months and City are the strong favourit. If you ask me, City will win very high today and so also Liverpool. So the 8 championship will be won today.

So you're saying today City win 1.17 x Liverpool win 1.16 = 1.35 easy money?  Roll Eyes
Looks too profitable to be true. But even with these estimates, it turns out that in every third case (when such an event happens), someone loses points. I included a Liverpool win in a few multis but City didn't  Cool I'll hope for the best (money bag without a title).

@KTChampions I’m personally expecting City and Liverpool to score minimum of 3 goals each, and I wouldn’t be surprised if they both ended up scoring more goals, hence there’s no way that these two sides will lose their final game.

Today the first leg of the relegation from the 3rd into the 2nd Bundesliga took place between Kaiserslautern (from the 3rd league) and Dresden (2nd league). The game ended without goals 0-0. Kaiserslautern had more chances but was unable to score a goal. Dresden disappointed in the last months and wasn't able to win a single game in the 2nd half of the season. They will have to win the 2nd leg (on Tuesday) if they want to stay in the 2nd Bundesliga.

This was such a dead match between these two teams. Honestly expected a lot more from these two teams in attack but they just focused on defence and there was any chances of goals in tonights match. Really dissapointing match honestly hopefully the rematch is better

@Joca97 I agree with you usually when there’s so much at stake you expect the teams to give it all, but this match lacked energy and both teams will need to introspect as to where they went wrong. Furthermore I too am expecting the rematch to be way better, because I’m sure that both the teams would have learnt their lesson and hopefully we will see more goals being scored in the rematch.

Breaking news!!!

Wimbledon: ATP Tour strips ranking points from Grand Slam over ban for Russians and Belarusians

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/61401519


This is a huge surprise, I thought the ATP would cave in and award full points, but it appears not. Of course this means amongst other things that Djokovic loses his 2,000 points from last year, without being able to defend them, and so is very likely to lose his number one ranking.

It remains to be seen what will happen on the women's side, but I'd imagine the WTA would follow suit. It would be very strange if the women got points and the men didn't.

For betting purposes it's probably irrelevant, all players will still want to win Wimbledon just as much, even with no points to play for.

I think it's a good decision. It would really skew the rankings if say Djokovic could score up to 2,000 points whilst his nearest challenger Medvedev was guaranteed 0 points just because of where he was born.

I honestly dont blame ATP for doing this,i blame wimbledon for going with the ban and this totally unfair from them. What if it was the otherway around it would never happen. Only sad thing if this is true is that Djokovic losses those 2000 points that will lose him the first place
I am actually glad this happened. Wimbledon always gave itself leave to do whatever they please. For instance that stupid rule that you have to play dressed in all white, including sneakers and soles of sneakers. I would love if couple of major players decided to skip it now that it does not bring points. That would give them something to think about in future.

I have to admit of all the crazy stuff we seen in Tennis world this past two year’s this was something I wasn’t expecting, and I wonder will the athletes be motivated during this tournament, hence we should factor this while selecting them for our wagers. @Trofo I don’t think the current player’s will break the dress code, except Djokovic because he’s shown that he can challenge the authority and with nothing to lose maybe he can break the dress code.

It would be foolish for Real Madrid if force themselves to win the match against Betis, because facing Betis is not a game that must be won.
If Real Madrid put out their best game at risk of injury, and it will cost Real Madrid who will soon face Liverpool in the Champions League final.
Even Real Madrid supporters were not disappointed with the draw result when Real Madrid faced Betis. From the very beginning before
the Real Madrid vs Betis match started we should have been able to predict, that Real Madrid couldn't possibly push for a win. Therefore Real Madrid
in this match played more carefully and did not play aggressively as usual, because I don't think Ancelotti fielded a main player against Betis to win,
but just a warm-up so that their players are better prepared to face Liverpool in the next game. Therefore if we want to watch an interesting match,
don't miss watching the Liverpool vs Real Madrid match, I'm sure the match will be very interesting and hopefully many goals will be created.
I think Madrid should still be able to win against Betis last night. yes because Real Madrid plays more carefully and just keeps their possession of the ball, a draw is not bad. they will still party. because any result will not change the history that Madrid has created this season.
I don't think Madrid will field Benzema. but it turned out to be wrong. maybe it's true that the match against Betis can be done by Madrid as a warm-up before the main match in the Champions League final.
Madrid seems to have prepared everything well. they will do well in the final.

I think many were right that Real Madrid was playing for a safe draw only and in the end the match ended in a draw, and further it makes absolute sense not to push your team too hard in a match that doesn’t even matter. However I’m sad cause Bale couldn’t make it to the pitch to play his final game for Real Madrid, because in my personal opinion he deserved a proper sendoff.

RESULTS:

Everton 3-2 Crystal Palace

Aston Villa 1-1 Burnley

Chelsea 1-1 Leicester City


Burnley briefly took the lead but ended up with a 1-1 draw. Their fate is simple: if they win their final game of the season they will stay in the premier league next season and it will be Leeds that are relegated.

Chelsea dominated but could not beats Leicester. It seems Lukaku is struggling in front of goal, he cannot score but Vardy shows more form at the London High Court where his wife Rebecca is suing Coleen the wife of Wayne Rooney. I think Vardy played below average all season and should leave Leicester at the end of the season. Lukaku might burst in to life next season.

Congratulations to Everton on securing a place in the Premier League for next season. What a spectacle.
Yes it was a good night for Everton. They were 0-2 down at half-time but ended up winning 3-2. Everton are guaranteed Premier League status next season but one of Burnley or Leeds will be relegated on the final day of the season.

Congratulations to Manchester City on winning the Premier League title in advance for 2021/22.

I am very happy for Lampard because he came in at a very difficult time, and yet he stayed humble and did what was assigned to him that is secure premier league football for next season for the club. Furthermore if Leeds do get eliminated then Phillips will be up for grabs at a lower price, and it’ll be interesting to see as to which Manchester side can get him.

Messi and the whole Paris Saint-Germain will be much more difficult next season if Mbappe does leave the team, because the Paris club's game largely rests on the efforts of this player, who constantly keeps his high level unlike many of his star teammates. As I said before, I can't imagine what should happen for Barcelona President Laporta to say that he would not be happy about Messi's return to the team. Another question is that this can only be an act of politeness and I don't think Barcelona will make any efforts to bring back its famous pupil. Therefore, I still think that Messi's immediate future is connected with Paris Saint-Germain and the player should already adapt and bring more benefits to the club, especially given the very likely departure of Mbappe.
PSG would be in a very tight position if Kylian Mbappe leaves the club for Real Madrid. His departure will also affects his teammates like Leo Messi and Neymar Jnr. Mbappe is a player that have a positive influence in the team although he is still a young lad that has many years to play football, Mbappe needs to make to better decisions, perhaps not all decisions are always right. Like the one that happen to former Chelsea big 10, Eden Hazard. He made the wrong choice when he joined real Madrid and that was the beginning of his setbacks in football.

@AndySt I don’t think that Barcelona want Messi back, because they’re planning a team that’ll be based off young player’s and Messi may have one or two seasons left before his form starts to fade, hence I don’t think that they’ll want to build the team around him anymore. Furthermore Mbappe absence will allow Neymar and Messi to flourish, and joining Real Madrid didn’t harm Hazard it was his own action of not being fit during the preseasons that harmed him.

Royal Challengers keeps the playoff hope alive with the win against Gujarat Titans by 8 wickets and 8 balls left. In today's match RCB players contributed good, and it was possible to see their natural game than playing under pressure. However the match of Rajasthan Royals vs Mumbai Indians result is gonna decide who's gonna get into playoff, because RR have got better run rate than Royal Challengers Bangalore.
Outstanding performance from the players of Royal Challengers Bangalore. They have played so well and managed to win against Gujrat Titans. They have chance to get into playoff but DC has also chance here. NRR of DC is good compare to RCB. I think RR is in the safe position till now to qualify for playoff.
Outstanding performance from Royal Challengers Bangalore. Kohli played a great innings. On the other side as usual Hardik Pandya took the responsibility which helped the team reach 168 runs losing 5 wickets. It looks like Gujarat Titans is facing some difficulty when batting first and plays with much confidence while chasing targets.
Why did GT choose to bat first after winning the toss? Sunil Gavaskar did say that it was a bad idea. Early on GT was struggling to even hit the ball but Hardik Pandya's agressive 62 runs let them to a respectable score of 168. I never expected RCB to chase that target but Kohli's impressive knock of 73 helped RCB to win the match. I hope he has regain his lost form this time. With this win RCB are still in contention for the playoffs.
RCB win over GT took them to the 4th place on the points table with 16 points with NRR -0.253 and have hopes for the playoffs alive after this victory. Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis presented the team with the perfect start.
Last but not the least, Glenn Maxwell with 5 fours and 2 sixes took the team over the finishing line and help RCB win the match with 8 wickets in hand and 10 balls in spare.


I wouldn’t have lost sleep if RCB had crashed out of the playoffs, but seeing them play so well yesterday now I want them to qualify and continue performing like they did yesterday. Furthermore I hope that you’ll are right and this knock helps Kohli bounce back, but if he continues to fail post this knock then he should really take a break from the game.

Hmm

Well we must be following different Australian teams. In my reading and experience Aussie team top the list in racial abuse and being too personal on the cricketing field without any doubt. Having said that i agree that post Sand Paper controversy they changed the tune, not completely but there is a significant improvement.

When i said " Extremely tough in local level" i didn't meant having a god-father or well connected. I was referring to cut throat competition and rawness behaviour in the local circuit. I've said this many time that the only thing i like about BCCI is they never rely on Nepotism when selecting a national team, yeah you could find some examples in Ranji etc but it would be for max 1-2 match because of competition.

Actually, I was talking about the present Australian team. In recent times I do not think they did something to really prove that they are very racist in every way. In the past, if I remember correctly when they were playing against West Indies they almost always talk about racial stuff. In the whole cricketing world, no one was brave enough to sledge Vivian Richards but the Australian players still tried to throw some racial stuff at him. And I think we all know how sir Vivian Richards reacted to sledging.
I was talking about the recent incident because time has changed and so have the laws.


~

This is where I have disagreement with Kohli and his sidekicks (Siraj, Saini.etc). Australians do sledge, but they never cross the line. On the other hand, Kohli and his cronies resort to physical aggression as well, when things doesn't go their way. Kohli behaves like a monkey in the field, always shouting and booing. Also, remember the incident in IPL, when Saini hit Tewatia with a beamer, and then refused to apologize? A few matches later, he did the same to Stoinis as well (2020 season, if I am not wrong). Saini just walked away, believing that hitting a batsmen with a beamer will somehow showcase his "macho" nature. And his captain (Kohli) was perfectly OK with this behavior.

How a player can hit a batsman who is most probably going to play together in the national team and think that it is badass let alone a player from another country!

Yes, I know that sometimes bowlers try to do this because they want to apply fear into their opponent's hearts but I think that is more for test cricket and not so much for the t20. And we have already seen a few players die because of getting hit on the head in cricket. So, I don't know how someone can think of it as an achievement.

@JSRAW it’s true that the sandpaper controversy and the quitting of Tim Paine has led the Australia side to change how they behave on the pitch, but I feel that sooner or later they’ll be back to their old ways i.e. win at any cost mentality. Furthermore after being removed as the captain of India, I don’t think Virat has shown much aggression for team India, and I wonder will we see a new calm Virat in the ODI format when the new ODI series begins?.

Negotiations between Man Utd and Barcelona for Frenkie De Jong transfer is getting harder because price tag 80 millions euro is overpriced for Man Utd and if the negotiations are still deadlocked then Man Utd will withdraw from this transfer and looking for another players but in the other hand although Barcelona ready to sold De Jong but actually Xavi still want him in the team and if he canceled leave Barcelona then Xavi still need him for next season

@bering it makes sense for Manchester United to walk away, because while De Jong is good but he’s definitely not worth 80 million euros. Furthermore if Barcelona can’t off load other player’s then they’ll have to lower their demands, and I think that is what Manchester United board is hoping for and I believe they’re right to wait it out rather than end up paying such a monstrous fee for him.

I guess you are refering to the Scotland vs Ukraine game?
I just checked odds and found: 2.3/3.2/3.2

Scotland does play at home, which is a real advantage again with audience in the stadiums. Independent of the war, I think Ukraine is not a weak team and probably stronger than Scotland. With Scotland playing at home they should be about the same level. Maybe bookmakers really factor in that Ukraine will perform worse because of it?
I think it's going to be a very close match, my guess is that they will end in a tie. In any case it's probably going to be a fun game to watch.
The qualification mode asks for a winner in the match, so if it's a tie after 90min we will see extra time and maybe penalties.
Then the winner will play Wales a couple of days after (in Wales) for one of the last remaining spots in the World Cup.

I think all 3 teams (Scotland, Ukraine, Wales) are almost on the same level, so we will see two very interesting games.

Whichever teams qualifies, they will be in a group with England, USA and Iran and will have a good chance for qualifying to the final round there as USA and Iran are definitely beatable for any of those candidates.

I personally think that Ukraine will win, because they’ll be keen to make a statement for all the people back at home who’re in the middle of the war and what better way to do that then by winning this match, and further I believe that they’ll be able to beat Wales and qualify for the World Cup too. However it’s quiet possible that they maybe emotionally distracted and may not perform to their usual standards, but I’ll yet put my faith in them and I hope that they beat Scotland and Wales.

Ferrari will have big upgrades in this car, it is rumored to be 4/10 faster with the updates!

I hope this is true otherwise Verstappen will win the title, they have the best car for the moment.

If that is true then Ferrari will win the title,Redbull does not have the fastest car,well except in the main straights which is a big advantage as we have a really huge straight in Spain but I also want to have competition.
Leclerc should be more focused and drive more aggressively rather than keep complaining in the radio messages,you don't win races complaining but by driving at the best of your possibilities.They are different characters and I think Verstappen is more mature in this aspect as he has suffered much more than Leclerc in F1 (had more retires during his F1 career than Leclerc).

@coinlocket$ if that’s indeed true then we’ll be set for more exciting races, because a fast car alone won’t win you the race and then it’ll be up to Leclerc to step up and deliver for Ferrari. @swogerino you’re right because he needs to stop complaining and deliver with the car to the best of his abilities, and if he yet fails post the upgrades then he’ll need to introspect because the fault lies at his end.

Don't know why icc is making fun of cricket by introducing such policies. I do agree that if you see teams of UAE and Oman they are entirely made up of players from South Asia. While Nepal has 100% local players. If you give more funds to team of expats then how can cricket grow in team that have 100% local players.

There needs to be a general rule for cricket like if you are a citizen of a certain country then you will be able to play for that country's cricket team. If you are a foreigner then you will not be allowed to play for that country. But I don't think ICC is going to do that because as far as I know, ICC gets a good amount of money from these countries to keep these things going. I don't think this is going to change unless the corrupt personnel from ICC is removed.

The eligibility criteria was change some 10-15 years ago, to allow teams such as the UAE to play with stronger squads. In no other sport, a national team can be comprised of foreign players. Not even a single foreigner is allowed in football, basketball, field hockey.etc. But in cricket, you can select a dozen players from India or Pakistan and label them as the national team of Czech Republic or Norway. Cricket has become a joke thanks to the stupidity of the ICC. My take is that, these greedy businessmen (Greg Barclay, the chairman of ICC is the best example) needs to be kicked out of the ICC and replaced with former international players such as Sachin Tendulkar and Kumar Sangakkara. Once they are in power, they will do whatever is needed to make cricket more popular across the globe.

@Sithara007 I don’t think that any ex player will be able to reverse these rules, because the people behind these countries won’t allow that to happen. Furthermore the only way ICC will be forced to change it if fans makes a petition and it goes viral seeking the removal of this rule, but so far I haven’t seen any ferocious demand by the fans to revoke it hence this rule will stay for now.

Sri Lanka  VS Bangladesh

Bangladesh finished their first innings with 465 runs. They are 68 runs ahead of Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka are now batting in the third session of the fourth day. Undoubtedly, this match will be a draw. And my guess is today’s third session and tomorrow’s full day we will see Sri Lanka batting. But after a long time we saw the perfect batting of Bangladeshi batsmen in Test format. The Bangladeshi batsmen were very inexperienced for the Test format.

Good partnership between Mushfiqur Rahim and Litton Das lower down the order helped Bangladesh getting lead of 68 runs. On stumps day 4, Srilanka are still 29 runs behind and lost 2 wickets. It seems like we have a draw if Srilankan batting didn't collapsed tomorrow.

I think a result is possible as Srilanka has already lost two wickets, and on top of that they’re yet trailing hence if Bangladesh can get few early wickets tomorrow then there’s a big chance of them winning this match. Lastly if Srilanka wishes to draw this match then they’ll have to hope that their batsmen play out the entire day, or to make it interesting they could set a target for Bangladesh to chase but I sincerely doubt that they’ll take this kind of risk.

One week left And one game left to decide who will win the Scudetto title this season. Victory is a fixed price for AC Milan and Inter Milan in their last game. Sassuolo will be challenged by AC Milan and Inter Milan will host Sampdoria. Matches will be played simultaneously so both Teams can't have a peek at the results of their competitors, this is very fun.
The last game that was very thrilling, all strength must be mobilized and mentally prepared, and of course it must be accompanied by luck, because in the last match anything can happen, even though AC Milan has an advantage of 2 points, but AC Milan must still play aggressively and play attacking, don't let the opportunities that are in front of your eyes go to waste, I will bet on AC Milan's victory and I'm also optimistic that AC Milan can lift the La Liga trophy this season.
I myself am more sure AC Milan will win the last match later. For Milan, this match has a very important meaning. AC Milan can confirm the Scudetto title in the match played at MAPEI Stadium. Milan need at least one point to win the Scudetto.
Sassuolo themselves no longer have a specific target in Serie A. They are already safe from the threat of relegation and have no chance of qualifying for the European zone.

Sassuolo's team can be called weak opponents, but AC Milan's previous performance against Sassuolo has not been good. Milan has lost to Sassuolo in the last two matches. So it is foolish to think that Milan will win easily against Sassuolo. However, Milan is in very good form and the players are determined to win the title. It looks like AC Milan will make no mistake in this match.

@CryptoBuds I agree that Ac Milan will definitely have a hard time in this game, because they’ll be under pressure to win it and in the end it’ll boil down to how focused their player’s are, and thus it’s safe to say that this will be an thrilling match and one we all will love watching till the very end. Furthermore whichever team wins out of the two it’s clear that Juventus has lost their top spot, and this is something fans had been waiting for a long time now because we all had grown tired of seeing Juventus win the title each season.
