Shreyas Iyer ruled out of the India VS Newzealand ODI due to back injury. He will be now replaced by Rajat Patidar. I think it all depends on whom Rohit Sharma would select tomorrow as he has got other options too. It would be interesting to see who gets that opportunity. In all a competitive ODI series is expected as both these team have recently won ODI series respectively.

I am a big supporter of Bitcoin but it doesn't mean I would name my child as Bitcoin. Think about your child's future. He might be objectified due to his name in the school. This name can also invite unwanted attention. I personally don't like your idea but it is your baby you can do whatever you want to do. BTW  congratulations!

There is nothing to compare, but the EX PCB chairman Ramiz Raza's commented that WIPL would be nothing compared to WPSL. I thought, I should share. BTW BCCI haters would now gone into safe zone and in my opinion BCCI is the only cricket board that knows how to uplift women cricket. I am eagerly waiting for both franchise and players auction.

If you can question BCCI you should also praise its efforts. I did and hopefully many haters should do that too. Never shy away or excuse the truth! BCCI is the board that would make a difference and also make money more than any other cricketing boards.

WIPL is now bigger than PSL!

WIPL media right per game sold at INR 7.5Cr to VIACOM18 which means JIO TV would be streaming it for free on its apps. I never thought that I would compare the media right of a women league tournament with men's league tournament. PLS per game media right is just INR 4.5Cr. This is very big considering WIPL has not yet started. If WIPL is able to generate good viewership in the next 5 years then I am sure it would become one of the biggest league  sports for women. BCCI has done a great job in uplifting women cricket. Now a lot young girls will dream of becoming a cricketer.

I did mentioned it on the ODI thread that this guys has secured his berth after his performance in the second ODI against Sri Lanka. In the third ODI he again lost his wicket after scoring just 7 or 6 runs. This is how you keep your berth safe in the playing 11, when in the past you have proven yourself.

Sir, Jadeja is a legend! I am happy that he is part of the squad. What I am excited about whether both Axar and Sir Jadeja both will be part of the playing 11. It seems Axar is trying to get his position. It would be awesome to see both these two playing and also delivering what India needs ( A series win). In my opinion Axar has proven that he can replace Jadega.

I am sure this win might be the biggest one in the history of ODI cricket. I was hearing the commentary of Harsha Bhogle and he did mentioned it as it was by a huge margin. I have no doubt now that MD Shiraz can now be a regular bowler for both ODI & Test squad.

What a fabulous effort by Shiraz to get 5 wickets in an innings that to in a white ball game. Today wasn't his day but the way this guy has been bowling I am sure he will get another opportunity. This series might open the eyes of Srilankan board on how bad this team is in an ODI. India has dominated this series which in my opinion is a good sign before the world cup.

LOL! The complete team for both these countries are of Indian origin. I can understand about US but UAE should have gone for players from other countries like Pakistan l, Srilanka, Bangladesh or from UK, SA & AUS. When they are buying players from the market they should have diversified it. I guess the coach and the team management might be also of Indian origin or BCCI might have some kind of contract of supplying players to the UAE board.

India VS Srilanka

The final ODI between these two teams will be played today. As India has already won the series I am sure there would be some changes in the playing 11 for today. I hope to see both Ishan Kishan and SKY playing today. Today's match would be very important for the Srilankan side and they would try their level best to win it. India would be going for the whitewash. The Indian bowlers have been absolutely impressive especially Shiraz & Umran. The batters are still struggling and are not at all consistent with their performance. Hopefully we might see some good batting today. 

Good to hear that someone is active and keeps attack of what is happening around. I did try to activate this board but no one from our country seems to be interested as most of them are only checking or working on the Bounty board. Another thing is that their is no encouragement from any Merit source.


I would still suggest you to wait till 2024. I am and many other Indian crypto communities are expecting some very harsh treatment from this government. We all know Modi will comeback but whether in full majority is something debatable.

Either you do not understand economy or you never understood the business of cricket. Every cricket playing nation has started its own league and some country in the middle east that do not have thier proper cricket team want to mint money with it own league tournament. Do you think they would be able to beat IPL?

I mean in the Indian subcontinent most countries are struggling to feed thier citizens with food and then they compare the 5th largest economy and it's cricket board. LOL!


I guess Indian players are not playing in this league. I do not expect this SA tournament to get views from India or any other country. They might get some from SA. As you wrote that it is JIO that is streaming this tournament for free. I would like to inform you that JIO will be doing the same for IPL for all it's users, starting this season of IPL.

Playing on thier home ground and getting destroyed is the speciality of Pakistani team. BTW, they won the toss and  choose to bat first. I think that decision might be a mistake. We will only know it when the Kiwis start batting. I am expecting a target of 270 at the max considering Pakistan has only two overs left and lost 7 runs.

Yes, it was Russell I was referring too. I hate hindi commentary because of Akash Chopra. He sounds so dramatic & always talking nonsense. I admire Sunny ji, Deep Dasgupta reminds me of Sanjay Manjarekar and I hate his fake ascent. Murli Karthik is a crap, not so sure about Agarkar.

After yesterday's match KL Rahul has confirmed his berth in the playing 11 for this year. One good innings from last year till yesterday and this guy has secured his position. I won't deny that if he had gotten out India might have lost the game by a narrow margin.

I am expecting a lot of changes in the final ODI. I am referring to those talents who have been sitting in the dressing room and admiring the views since India has already won the series.

Pakistan VS Newzealand

The final ODI of this series will be played today. As this match is the decider I am hoping Pakistani batters take some ownership and not rely only on Babar Azam. Newzealand would be far much confident after the last win. They know the loopholes of Pakistani batting and would like to exploit it once again.

Great! Someone took the initiative to post an engaging topic on this board, as I have stopped doing it due to zero engagement & zero merits from Merit sources. It seems most of them are inactive at the moment. 

Now, coming to what you have asked. A lot of revenue from tax has gone as most investors, traders and those who made a living on Bitcoin have shifted to international exchanges. A lot of investors/traders have shifted or made arrangements to do their business in crypto tax friendly countries.

The Indian government wanted to reduce crypto engagement and in my opinion they have been successfull as a lot of Indian exchanges have declared a traffic drop. In 2023 I am sure the government would not make any changes to the law as it is a preparation year for the next election which is scheduled in 2024. You can expect a complete ban in 2025.  

I do not understand why the Srilankan commentators are saying good over in Srilankan bowlers favour when the over conceded a 4 or sometime 5. In the end it is a 50 over match and if the Indian batters just score a 4 in every over still they can reach 200 runs. The rest can be through extras and some running in between the wickets. No idea why they are so happy as India has only lost 2 wickets and plenty batting is left as well as overs.

Edit: Kohli is out again unable to handle pressure. Give him a good opening and he will score a century, which did not happen this time.
Edit 2: Iyer gone, WTF!! It is only 216, why on the earth are they taking risk?

I have never seen a team from the subcontinent struggling against spinners. Kuldeep & Axar destroyed thier middle order. Rest Umran & Shiraz took care off. None of the Srilankan batters were able to form a good partnership. They tried but eventually gave up against the good Indian bowling on a batter friendly pitch. A complete dominance by the Indian team. It is an easy target to chase and a win win situation for India.

Srilanka won the toss and opted to bat first. A good decision as haze might play a role in the second half. Also the temperature tends to suddenly drop at night. I will not be easy for the Indian batters to chase the target set by the Srilankan batters. Any target which is 250+ would be good on this field. 

India VS Srilanka

The second ODI between these two teams will be played today. The match will be played on Eden Gardens. The last time these two teams played on Eden Gardens, Rohit Sharma score 200+ runs. I am hoping a simpler kind of performance by this time too. I am expecting both Ishan Kishan and SKY to be part of the playing 11. The problem with Srilanka is lack of experience bowlers. I do not think Dilshan Madushanka will be part of the Srilankan playing 11 as he had dislocated his shoulder in the previous ODI. Their batters are in good form and I expecting a good & exciting game of cricket today.

I have been using my Android mobile device to access the forum for sometime now. In the beginning it was not that easy to zoom in and zoom out or reply but after few initial hiccups it went well. Using the mobile device bring more comfort than the PC as you can sit or lie down while going through different post. I have been using both Chrome & Firefox on my mobile device.

Pakistan again bowled well but the Kiwis bowled better. The whole Pakistani batting line up just collapsed. Only the Captain stood thier but was not that agressive considering the number of balls he faced. The series is now tied and the last ODI will decide who will win it. Pakistan are still the favourite but after today's game I think the Kiwis do have a chance.
