I think we can agree that Bangladesh is going through a rough patch. Bangladesh is a better performance compared to what they have shown in this ODI series against Afghanistan. Bangladesh has a lot of different problems going on in the cricket board. But we have to say Afghanistan did show good performance away from home. So there should not be any excuse from the ICC to not give them bigger funding.  But I actually know that ICC is going to give the excuse of Afghanistan being controlled by the Taliban or Afghanistan not having a proper political situation right now. But those are not acceptable, to be honest.

Bangladesh has never performed consistently ever since they received full member status in 1999. So it has nothing to do with "rough patches". In this case, their rough patch is ongoing for 24 years. And regarding the funding to ACB, ICC has asked the Taliban regime to allow women players to participate in domestic matches. They are refusing to do so and that is the reason why funding has been on hold for the last couple of years. CA and ECB wants the ICC to suspend ACB, but the Asian boards have prevented that from happening.

I understand that Bangladesh hasn't been able to progress after so many years since their full status but in this series, they were not playing against strong teams like India or Australia. Their opponent was the Afghanistan team and it was expected for Bangladesh to perform better against them.

Coming to the Afghanistan cricket board, if they do not participate in women's competitions, due to religious regions, the ICC should take this into consideration, and suspending the ACB is no solution.

That means social media managers must be able to provide filters for all their users and only allow users over 18 years of age to view gambling or other adult advertisements. And the ad filter must be able to provide its features to all users so that they can filter the ads they want to appear on their homepage. Maybe the government can give this advice to social media managers because the only ones who can do this are the social media managers themselves. After doing that filtering, it is hoped that ads that are not suitable for users will not appear on their homepage.
yes there should be. However, in reality, today's children are able to make their own settings, which sometimes don't match what their parents expect. Meanwhile, on several sites, online games, or YouTube, gambling ads continue to grow and are very easy to find. This looks really promising for these young people. In this case, parental control is indeed important, but we as parents also cannot control it for 24 hours straight and monitor all activity on the device in real time online 24 hours a day. This is indeed a challenge for the online world that continues to grow. Indeed, he hopes that the government will automatically block advertisements like that in this country.
Yes as parents it is not possible to monitor your child 24/7. With technology you can do it but that might sounds like invading the privacy of your child. The parent needs to establish whether they want to put a surveillance on their child by checking the environment they are part of . I mean the friends the child has and what they are generally do in the lesiure time. Technically monitoring is possible if you know how to use the technology.

We need to rephrase this a bit because as a parent you have no control over the gambling ads whether they are on Youtube, social media or where ever, but if you want, you can and should control your kids and tell them not to gamble.

Another thing to note is that gambling is not free of cost. There is no way the kids can go online and start gambling just like they play online games. In gambling, we have to put in our money and then gamble/bet. How come kids get that money to gamble? I believe parents are equally responsible if their kids have the money to gamble. The parents themselves give the money to kids and later feel surprised how they gamble:Smiley

Personally, I would submit KYC only if it's related to big withdrawals or if they find something legitimately suspicious related to my account.

But then one day you will hit a jackpot or win big (at least we should be hopeful that we will win big) and then all of sudden you will be needed to perform the KYC. At that point, some of the scam casinos may not accept your KYC because they know that on acceptance you will withdraw the winning money.

However, if you already had performed the KYC, then this issue may not arise and you may be able to withdrawal easily. But again you point of view is also right in a sense that doing KYC at all the sites only risks our KYC data to be misused.

New Zealand W vs Srilanka W

Today is the 3rd T20 match between these two teams. Srilanka won the toss and elected to field first. New Zealand already played its turn. And gave target of 141 runs to Srilanka team. This is a good target and little bit difficult to chase. And now Srilanka started its turn and started with a good move. They made 11 runs in first over.
This match is going to be interested. So let's see what will happen? Smiley

This was a one sided match which was won quite easily by the Srilankan Women's team. In fact, they won it by 10 wickets. New Zealand team batting first scored 140 runs. At that moment, it seems that they had a competitive total but later they way Srilanka women team batted, it was a different game altogether.

Chamari Athapaththu remain not out at 80 and he was supported by Samarawickrama who scored 49 and both of these girls won the match for the Srilanka. Though NZ had already won the series, so this loss won't hurt them much.

The way my investment on this token progress. I would say that it’s pretty bad investing on casino tokens while the total token supply is not fully diluted because BFG price never grow back everytime new BFG tokens emit to the circulating supply. I invest a lot on casino tokens like BFG, OWL, TFS and FUN tokens around 2021-2022 and none of them bring back my investment even on breakeven point despite I purchased when the price dip.


I understand your feelings and situation but think it in another way around. What if you never invested in the bull season of 2021 and mid of bear season in 2022 but invest at the bottom of the bear market? In that case, you would be feeling like you have bought the coins at the real depth and now you will gain super profits in the next bull season.

Nevertheless, be hopeful that all these coins will reach their all time high again, and even if not, you can sell them at breakeven or a less profit depending upon your buying price.

That is why I have predicted that West Indies will not be able to score more than 180 runs in the first innings. because they still have many weaknesses and they are playing against a strong team like India. so it is a huge challenge for them. so I think India can very well win this Test match with West Indies. because India can play easy matches very well, they have this ability. that is why I have full confidence in India

Did you only predict that WI will not be able to score 180 runs or did you actually bet on it?

I usually bet on winning and losing but do not bet on such things as they are difficult to predict. At Lunch, West Indies are 68 for 4 wickets down. Any single partnership can easily take West Indies beyond 180 runs. Sometimes even the 8, 9, or 10 wickets make 30 - 40 runs, and a team scores beyond 180. Such bets are too risky indeed.
2447  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Women's Cricket Prediction & Discussion - T20 & ODI on: July 12, 2023, 04:11:37 PM
First T20 match between the two teams at Birmingham was a close one. Australia women's team won the match just in the last over making it an exciting finish. I am hopeful to see more close matches between the two teams and waiting for the next match which will be played on Wednesday 5th July at The Oval.
I was able to watch the match and since the beginning the two teams have been competing strictly to be able to score runs.
If you look at it from the start, even though the matches were very tight and outperformed each other, it was clear to the Australian team that they were a little behind, but when they reached the end round, Australia seemed to have recovered and they managed to catch up to win.
Which is amazing for Australia but unfortunately I didn't get to bet on that match because from the start it was harder to tell who would win the game.

Women's Ashes are underway and unlike the Men's Ashes, here the England women's team is dominant over the Australian women's team. England's team won the T20 3 T20 by 2-1. Although the Australian team won the first T20 match, they lost the latter two and hence lost the series.

Now the ODI matches have started and here at the first match at Bristol, the Australian women's team has scored 263 runs and lost 8 wickets. Beth Mooney scored 81 runs and was the leading runs scorer.  Will England be able to chase this score? Right now they are looking good at 53 runs for only one wicket down.
2448  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: July 12, 2023, 03:51:06 PM
India vs West Indies 1st Test match is being held. West Indies are batting first innings in today's series. It is difficult to say how well West Indies will perform in today's match. But in today's match, India will bowl well, if India can give a good bowling performance, West Indies' wicket will fall. Right now West Indies batsmen Tagenarine Chanderpaul and Kraigg Brathwaite are batting if their pair can survive then they can collect good runs. Today West Indies will try to play well to win the match and if India can bowl well then West Indies will surely come under pressure. At the moment, West Indies' collected runs are 21 in 8 overs, so far no wicket has fallen.

It seems like there is no current in the West Indies squad and we may see an easy win in the first Test match for India at Roseau. The wins for India will be important as each win will contribute to the World Test Championship points.

Coming to the match, the captain scored the highest number of runs (20) till now and the team is struggling at 37 for 3 wickets. Ashwin managed to take 3 wickets. The match is not interesting at all if the WI batsmen fail to perform. I am expecting some better performance by team WI on their home ground.
2449  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Success or Fail? - Talking about Gambling as a major income on: July 12, 2023, 03:38:08 PM
People often learn from their mistakes, and when it comes to gambling, some may try to see if they can make money from it. However, it's important to note that gambling should not be relied upon as a consistent source of income. Relying solely on gambling for income would mean leaving a stable job for something uncertain.
It's great if people can learn from their mistakes because it can increase their maturity and give them the mindset that gambling is not a place to make money. When someone thinks of making gambling as a place to make money, they will not be able to get it because gambling is not such a place. It is better for them to stay focused on finding other jobs that can provide them with income rather than trying to gamble. They can learn from others and see how difficult it is for people to use gambling as a source of income. But after all, some gamblers can get it but even then, there are not as many people who suffer losses because of gambling.
partly wrong mate because there are some people that make gambling as a money making area and yes feeding their family from what they earn from gambling because I have a friend that is living in this life.
yes there are  ways for them or maybe there are people that has born with luck in their tail.


Most of them are like that, making money for their lives from gambling. They are also lucky enough to be able to make a lot of money from gambling because of their persistence. But not a few also experience a lot of losses and eventually become stressed and lose everything. Only relying on gambling as the main income will not be good, there are times when you have to find other sources of income to be safer and not depend on gambling. and no one will always be lucky, there will be times when luck does not come at the right time and it will be a disaster if it keeps happening.

If anyone is making money from gambling, he or she will be very lucky indeed or maybe they are not speaking the truth. I never understand how gamblers will make money consistently. Yeah, you can have a jackpot and some lucky days where you win a lot of money through gambling, but making consistent money from gambling is not an easy task.

I think we can make sudden big money from gambling but making consistent weekly or monthly income is not possible. Those who claim this, do they have no other source of income  Huh

Are we in the first phase of economic thinking in the world?. Man the humanity has surprase that phase that you are talking about a lot of  years/ centuries ago.

The agricultural phase its the bottom of the piramid, yes its a necesary one ,and it can make you wealthy or non reliable in others food, but for economic grow you need more.

Do you know the industrial revolution was that change? From a most agricultural society/economy to a new industrial in cities and with that a whole new economics.

Not all countries in the world are rich with the agriculture natural facilities. Those countries where the weather favours the agriculture , they already use their agriculture products to export and make good revenue for the country.  

In the modern day I guess the investment in bitcoin is one of the good option to save a country from recession. Since there is no inflation in the bitcoin I guess this maybe the best option provided the government has no objection on using it.
2451  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: July 11, 2023, 05:45:58 PM
✂✂
My point of view is that even a small issue is being presented as a big in the media and there must be hundreds of good facilities but people never talked about them.

Well.. I can agree with your argument. Personally during the last one and half decades, I had mixed experiences with different sports venues in India (not just talking about cricket, but also other sports such as football and athletics). A majority of these facilities were well maintained, although crowd management was inexistent almost everywhere. But once in a while, the entire experience was ruined as a result of poorly maintained facilities where the washrooms were not clean and security arrangement was not up to the mark.

I can understand that one bad experience can ruin your feelings and you may not be willing to go and watch the match live again in the stadium. (or maybe only in that particular stadium)

@noormc5 luckily all stadiums I been around worldwide were clean and if you have a valid ticket then you can ask the toilet to be cleaned there is no need to suffer. Furthermore in a digital age if anyone encounters such toilets then all they need to do is upload the pics on Twitter and soon it’ll go trending and due to the fear of public backlash I expect stadiums toilets to be clean these days.

I guess we are talking about the facilities in Indian cricket stadiums. Well, I would not recommend uploading those pictures on social media as it may bring a bad name to the country. Maybe one can take the pictures and inform the relevant authorities rather then making them public and those pics may act as an insult to the country.

Finally, Bangladesh has achieved a victory over Afghanistan. In the third ODI match, Bangladesh managed to win by 7 wickets, so avoid whitewash in the ODI series against Afghanistan. The bowlers displayed outstanding performance, with special mention to Shoriful Islam's performance. Shakib Al Hasan played an aggressive innings, while Captain Litton led the team till end. Congratulations to Afghanistan for winning the series 2-1. Since 2015, Afghanistan is only the second team to defeat Bangladesh in an ODI series on their home ground.

The match was not important for Afghanistan. Because they won the series 2-0. And so Rashid Khan, one of Afghanistan's best players, was absent in this match. Afghanistan's performance might have been better if Rashid Khan was with the squad. However, it is challenging to beat Bangladesh on their home ground. However, all three matches were held in Chittagong. It might have been more difficult for Afghanistan to win the series if it was held in Mirpur. Two T20 matches will be held in Sylhet. Match two is expected to be very competitive.

Although Bangladesh won this match by 7 wickets, I would not count it a big success for them. The Afghanistan team has already won the series and this match. So I don't think that they were much serious about this game. Most of the batsmen played careless shots which caused them to make only 126 runs.

Bangladesh should take this win as a morale booster for the T20 series between the two teams starting from Friday 14, July. I believe that Bangladesh has to play very well else Afghanistan is in full form to win that series too.

How to buy Bitcoin? Since I see CEX like BN has quit, I'm really worried about trading in CEX.

Does anyone have suggestions? How to buy and where to buy, or is it the right time to trade?

Do you want to buy or trade in bitcoin? I know that keeping money in CEX is dangerous but you can just buy bitcoin from the exchange (through P2P) and then move the bitcoins to your personal wallets.
Also, you can keep only small funds for trading in the centralized exchange and if you are too much worried about them, there are decentralized exchanges too which may fulfil your purpose of trading.

Nope, the match will start on 19th of July and not on the 15th  Smiley



I think this will be the most important match of this Ashes series and England will go in this game with more confidence.


Looking at the odds at stake, quite interestingly both teams have equal odds of 2.32.

There are cloakrooms near the entrance where you need to deposit all the items that are not permitted inside (obviously the service is not free). My biggest issue is with the washrooms and toilets. Despite paying huge amounts for purchasing the ticket, even those who hold passes to the high-end areas of the stands have to deal with toilets that are not well maintained. And in case you are in for an ODI match, which lasts for 7-8 hours, it is impossible to not to use the toilet. I have heard many horror stories, and in the worst cases toilets were not fit for usage by humans.

Horror stories regarding the washroom in cricket stadiums  Huh You are making me scary.

By the way, have you yourself witnessed a bad experience because sometimes people just exaggerate while the reality is otherwise? I don't believe that in all the stadiums and in the sections of the stadium this would be a problem. Yeah, there might be some bad incidents but that should not be taken as feedback for the overall condition of the facilities in the stadium.

My point of view is that even a small issue is being presented as a big in the media and there must be hundreds of good facilities but people never talked about them.

Want to buy shoes? He will do it for you and ship it to you. Want to invest in real estate in China, he will be your contact person

IMO, there is no way you can trust such a stranger with zero reputation, yet we have marketplaces like Alibaba, Aliexpress that offer similar services, act as escrow and even have buyer protection and trade assurance.


So he will be demanding for money before he could actually buy the product and send it to your country. So how can anyone trust a person with zero reputation on this forum. I do not say that he is dishonest, but what's the grantee that he will get our money and never send us our goods  Huh

By the way, there are some tips for person who interesting
1. I do B2B, not to C, I mean I do wholesale sevices
2. I do services company to company, not personally
3. My Hongkong account accept company to company T/T, no person to me

So you want to deal with companies who can take goods in bulk. But do you think that business (B) and companies will be comfortable dealing with a C (Customer). In order for B2B, you also need to have a company. So will you care to tell about your company ?
2457  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Advice when you are going a bit far in gaming and betting on: July 10, 2023, 05:36:45 PM
Imo there is only one thing that is “you are going a bit far” in gambling - situation when you start to think how you gonna play back what you have already lost. If you start planning, that if you bet X amount and win, and that will be greater that you have lost, this means you are in a narrow path of loosing everything and making a wrong decision. If you catch yourself planning what you will do with winning amount - you are a bit far, in danger.

I agree, I would also add that anyone is even more in danger is takes things even further and tries to chase losses using money which does not belong to them, under the promise of wining big and paying it all back, you know, the typical dream of the jackpot.

It is something that happened to a Twitch streamer not long ago, he decided to ask money around to his family and friends, little they knew that money was being gambled away, truly a sad history. I do not wish something like that to happen to anyone, to be honest...

Why don't people understand that if they chase a loss, that may lead to more loss? If they have faced a loss recently, they may face the loss again. If they think that after the loss, the win is a must, then they are having the wrong approach.

I don't follow the streamers but if the streamers tell that he borrows money to gamble, he is in fact putting a bad image to his followers and some of them may do the same. Borrowing money to gamble is the worst thing you can ever do.

You don't need to learn to gamble, also there is no compulsion for you to do gambling if you are a crypto user. I think you are rather complicating gambling and crypto while there is no such big relation between the two, although I do agree that gambling using cryptocurrencies is easy as compared that you do online gambling through credit cards etc.

Finally England able to book victory over Australia in j this Ashes series. Australia batting in this match was not too good like they played in previous two matches. I think England bowlers now find the key to take quick wickets. Harry brook inining was interesting one. The way he played was just like ODI. His fantastic 75 of 93 gives england score speed to chase target easily. Now Series is 2-1 and next gane will be interesting one and both team will be enter in the ground with new strategy.

Yes, true as with this win , the interest of the series will remain intact. This is good for the host nation, good for the spectators and also good for the advertisers too.  Smiley

Australia are still in advantage with a lead of 2-1, which means that they will get one more chance in the 4th test match to win the series, in case of another Aussie loss, we will have final.

The next test will start in 10 days time at Manchester on July 19th.
