As expected the pitch is very good for bowlers. Srilankan bowlers have done good job by taking down 5 important batters of the Pakistani side. Pakistan still has Babar Azam but he is also struggling to score runs. If Pakistan continues to lose wickets in regular intervals then it will be hard for the Pakistani captain to keep on batting.
The situation in Pakistan is now very bad. They lost 7 wickets. Although Babar Azam is still at the crease. But no batsman is able to build a partnership with Babar Azam. Pakistan lost their seventh wicket by 85 runs. Now their collection is 104/7. Babar Azam scored 34 runs. Probably Pakistan's innings will end within 160. Pakistan's batting performance depends on certain players like Babar Azam, Rizwan and Shafique. Out of the 7 wickets 5 have been claimed by Jaisurya the spinner. It seems Pakistani batters are struggling to play spin. Babar Azam is still on the pitch but the problem with Pakistan is that none of the other batters are able to form a partnership because Srilankan bowlers are going after other batters. Not much batting left in the Pakistani side now.

If you see last encounters between Bangladesh and west indies then all are won by Bangladesh. See stats here. West Indies are totally outclassed by Bangladesh in first two ODIs, Bangladesh won first ODI by 6 and second by 9 wickets. Definitely Bangladesh are favorite for today's game also. The problem with Bangladesh is that they are highly inconsistent. On some days the team performs extremely well and on others their performance is pathetic. Therefore it is very hard to come to conclusions before the match that they will win. There have been instances in the past where the Bangladesh team have lost a match that they were suppose to win.

This pitch is suitable for bowlers as expected. I do not expect the Srilankan side to even reach a total of 200 runs. But, batting on this pitch would not be that easy for the Pakistan batters. It is only the first day and a lot of cricket still needs to be played.
1st day pitch so it's kind off balance condition for both bat and ball and it's just sensible bowling from Pak bowling unit and some poor shot selections from Lankans. Sri Lanka following similar script, i suppose. Win the toss, elect to bat and collapse when pitch is good to bat on. I was not expecting the Srilankan side to even cross 200 runs. Thanks to Chandimal they have a decent score on board. There were couple of lazy shots but the pitch is a bowling pitch. Last test with Australia the same thing happened. Let's see what happens on day 2.

Well, the review can help but then we need to experience things to know the actual manner in which the site operates especially the way their handle issues as it relates to players' accounts and withdrawal another important aspect is the probability of the casino's how their system works. This and many more are the things to determine the trust level of a sportbiokie.
I think the reviews are good enough,especially if you read them in the ANN thread in this very section where each casino has their own ANN thread.If I see that people only talk good about a specific casino I for example as a slot player don't need to know the internals of the casino as most casino links direct their site to the slot providers.In this context I think is enough to know that the casino is trustworthy,processes the withdrawals super fast and has not unfounded scam accusations against them. In initial days the reviews on ANN threads are always positive unless there are multiple issues. But, what about those casinos that do not have an ANN on the forum? For those in my opinion it is better to avoid reviews on third party websites. It can be always helpful to monitor the live if that casino has one or you can give it a try by playing with small amount.

Sri Lanka vs Pakistan, 1st Test Sri Lanka are batting now. Sri Lanka have lost 4 wickets so far. Sri Lanka scored 80 runs in 25 overs. Oshada Fernando was dismissed for 35 off 49 balls.
Forget about the scores when Pakistan is playing a match ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) They are now in complete control of this first test match. Yasir Shah and Shaheen Shah Afridi would make sure Srilanka won't be able to make a big score. Anything under 200 runs is acceptable to Pakistan. The way things are going I am hoping that Pakistan can bowl them out under 150 runs. Remember, every win in the test matches in important for Pakistan when we see at the international test championship table This pitch is suitable for bowlers as expected. I do not expect the Srilankan side to even reach a total of 200 runs. But, batting on this pitch would not be that easy for the Pakistan batters. It is only the first day and a lot of cricket still needs to be played.

Everyone praising the effort of Ireland, but I still need to remind that they need to actually win matches. What matters is the point in ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League. Ireland lose all three matches in the series and got 0 points from 3 matches. Now they have just 68 points from 21 matches. Just three matches remain, and they need two wins to secure direct qualification to the next ODI world cup. It doesn't matter if they lose the match by 1 run or 100 runs. In the end, they need points to advance their position in the Super League.
They are trying and they have also come close to winning a match. Ireland have played excellently but they need to play better than the NZ side to win a match, which I feel is not that easy for the Irish side. If they cannot get points this time then they will qualify next time because they are gaining experience which they will utilise next time

The Indian Cricket Board wants Virat Kohli to play in the T20 World Cup. Although his day is not going well now. Most likely some more matches could give him a chance. However, in this case, there are more players, combination new and old, they should be given a chance. But now it is understood that India is doing its best to keep the whole T20 World Cup in front of it to do better. However, it is not yet clear whether the player will change in the T20 squad.
India needs experienced players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma on a platform like the World Cup. Virat Kohli is now going through the worst time of his career. He has been consistently performing poorly, and the BCCI is still keeping them in the squad. Because BCCI now wants Kohli to perform in the World Cup. But in the next two series, if Virat Kohli fails consistently and cannot perform well. Then I don't think BCCI will keep Virat Kohli in the World Cup squad. Aren't there any other good players in the team? why is the Kholi the only option. Kholi is now in many other campaigns like WLM and Clean Air. I think he is now more into the bollywood - than in his career. The BCCI is just concerned about Kholi not about the national image. No, he is not into Bollywood but his wife is into it. He is just not able to play no matter what he tries on the field. If I am correct Sachin Tendulkar went through the same phase in his career too. He at that time blamed it on captaincy pressure and after leaving the captaincy his performance improved a lot. Kohli also did the same thing but he was forced to leave his captaincy because he sucked both as a captain and as a batter at that time. Till today he is struggling as a batter and I think he will be chucked out of the team after the world cup.

New Zealand VS Ireland
The third ODI between New Zealand and Ireland is going on now. Despite fielding first in the first two matches, New Zealand won the toss and decided to bat in the match. New Zealand's collection is 126/2 in 19 overs. They are scoring over than 6 runs in per over. If this continues, they will be able to give more than 300 targets. Though this is a batting-friendly pitch. So New Zealand will not be able to win if the target is below 300. In previous matches we have seen the extraordinary batting of the Irish players.
Newzealand already scored 316 runs and lost only 5 wickets. They still have 4 overs more and it is possible they might cross the 350 marks. I am surprised we are discussing this match as we all know the result will be not so different. This is just a practice match for them and a real test for the Irish team. I doubt they will be able to chase such a huge score.

Both the teams are in good position. Sri Lanka have the home ground advantage. Already in this same ground won the test match by an innings and 39 runs. Chandimal made his 200+ runs in the match. Anyhow this series will be very interesting that we can't easily get into a conclusion on the winning of the team. The betting odds were also close.
The battle will be basically between Pakistani batsmen (Babar Azam, Mohammad Rizwan, Azhar Ali, Sarfaraz Ahmed, Fawad Alam.etc) against the Sri Lankan spinners (Prabath Jayasuriya, Dhananjaya de Silva, Ramesh Mendis.etc). And then the spinners are going to get a lot of advantage from the track. For their credit, Pakistan has announced a very experienced squad, and the majority of the players have played >50 test matches. Compared to that, the Sri Lankan squad is relatively young and inexperienced. After watching the previous test match between Australia and Srilanka I think in this test series we will see the battle of bowlers than batters. Both team have got good bowlers especially the srilankan spin attack can create problems for the top Pakistani batters. I am also sure that the SCB will create pitch that will help spinners more.

After winning the toss and choosing to bowl first was a bad decision for Rohit Sharma. Reece Topley took 6 wickets yesterday destroying the Indian batting order. I am still not sure why the Indian management still giving chances to Kohli. They could have rested him and given someone the chance to play. I hope they rest him in the next match.

In my opinion after the T20 world cup he might get dropped, if he continues to perform in the same manner. It has been three years now and I haven't seen him doing wonders with his bat. His attitude remains the same on the field but his batting is getting worst with every match he plays. There are far better players available at the moment who can replace Kohli.
Will BCCI give Virat Kohli a spot in the World Cup squad if he continues to perform poorly? India has a lot of talented players who are doing much better than Virat Kohli recently. I think Virat Kohli will probably be kept with the squad for the group stage matches, but after that BCCI will not give Kohli another chance unless his performance improves. No matter what but he will surely get a spot in the worldcup squad. BCCI will not leave him considering his performance in the past. In the past he had ruined every ICC tournament as a captain but considering his previous batting performance i am hopeful that he will get a spot.

Sledging in the game is completely different thing because this is happening in many other games as well, but now his behavior is also not acceptable with he is going down in moral day by day which is creating big issue for him and rest of team's moral as well.
There is no doubt he is a quality player, but now it's almost three years and peoples feeling him like a burden on Team India with too many youngsters already in pipeline for waiting their chance in this team, and they can replace him in quick way with some better performance, but backers are not allowing for any change and still hanging him around which is surely a big mistake and can creating more feud around the team it's time for change with something better quality and performance. Selectors already made some big moves when they removed Kohli as the captain. But dropping him from the XI is like playing with fire. He remains as the most popular player in India and if the replacement fails to perform, then the selectors will be under firing line. But the sad part is that Kohli's downfall started when he began giving more importance to activism rather than sports. He antagonized a lot of people with his negative opinion on various subjects. Another year or two with such performance, and it will be difficult to justify his position in the team. In my opinion after the T20 world cup he might get dropped, if he continues to perform in the same manner. It has been three years now and I haven't seen him doing wonders with his bat. His attitude remains the same on the field but his batting is getting worst with every match he plays. There are far better players available at the moment who can replace Kohli.

Pakistan VS Srilanka Two test matches will be played in Srilanka. The first one will be played on 16th July. The last test series was tie between Srilanka and Australia. I am hoping this one doesn't end in that way. Pakistan is ofcourse a better test team than Srilanka and they can play spin well than Australia. It would be interesting to watch what strategy will the Srilankan side apply gainst the Pakistani team.

West Indies v Bangladesh second ODI match.Congratulations to Bangladesh team for winning two ODI series in a row. After losing the Test and T20 series, they won two ODI series in a row. Tamim Iqbal and Liton Das won the match easily without any pressure. We can definitely say that Bangladesh team is perfect for ODI series
Bangladesh 112/1 (20.4)
West Indies 108/10 (35)
Bangladesh won by 9 wkts
West Indies batters are struggling to play the spin. Both in the first and now in the second ODI. Toss also played a crucial part in this win. Good comeback by Bangladesh after losing the Test and T20 now they have won the ODI series.

Never trade when the market is going up or going down. At the moment the market is down and going sideways. What everyone does in this present situation is to accumulate more so that whenever the market goes up by a certain amount you can then sell them. I am not sure at which price point you made your purchase but, if it is possible for you to accumulate at different price points then do so and then sell when you think you have made enough profit.

Rohit Sharma's performance as captain for India T20 team has been fantastic. After adding yesterday's match this was his 14 consecutive win as a captain. He know where to place the fielder and which bowler needs to be introduced when a partnership starts to build. Considering his intelligent captaincy I think this time the performance of Indian cricket team in the upcoming ICC T20 tournament would be far much better than what it was last time.
When team wins then everything looks easy peasy, just saying but yeah Rohit does bring some sort of luck in cricketing field as skipper as compare to our dear panuti. --------------- Ha! India is again going with another 4 more changes in the team, they also made 4 changes in 2nd game yesterday and doing the same tonight. Clearly checking out all the available options and not shying away. Clearly, the changes made in yesterday's match were not good. They should have continued with the bowlers they had in the earlier match. Yes, testing before the ICC trophy is required but in my opinion, they should have done that when playing with a weaker team. I still feel if the same team was playing in the third match India would have won. If they wanted to replace someone they should have replaced Kohli.

The 2nd Test match between Sri Lanka and Australia is underway. Where Sri Lanka is ahead in their performance. Australia, on the other hand, do not have much advantage. Australia are 117 runs for 7 wicket (Day 4: 3rd Session) at the moment Australia hardly try to stay on the pitch. Maybe their game will be over in a few moments. Sri Lanka get the advantages by their bowling action. probably the match will go under Sri Lanka.
It's all over for Australia. Prabath Jayasuriya wickets in both innings was the reason Srilanka won by an innings and 39 runs. Most of us were expecting a draw but the match concluded today. Marnus Labuschagne was the highest scorer for Australia in second innings as he scored 32 runs. Anything can happen in cricket yesterday this match was heading towards a draw but in just a day the game went in favor of Srilanka. I did not see the whole match as I had a few presumptions earlier and did not have the time to watch the match. I will be waiting for the highlights to come out then only I would be able to understand what went wrong with Australia.

The worst part about TDS applicability put in by the government is that even if you are an individual who is not involved in any kind of business and profession and is just doing cryptos for investment or even fun has to deduct TDS while buying/ selling the coin and deposit it with the government. In case of exchanges it was easier as the burden to comply with all the statutory norms was on the shoulders of the government but in the case of individuals, it will be on people which will obviously reduce their enthusiasm to do crypto trading. I feel this law can be crypto killer in India.
If you do the research you will find that the government of India are bringing these laws towards crypto so that they can discourage crypto trading/investments in India. First they bought the 30% taxation law and then they bought the 1% TDS and rumors are there that they are about to bring 28% additional tax as GST on crypto. So all of these are steps that the government of India is taking to eliminate crypto from India. Yes, after Bitcoin fell to its new low many traders have already halted their trading activities and after July there are others who have stopped due to the TDS. To an extent the government has be able to discourage trading an investment officially. I think they will also implement GST shortly to complete and that would destroy whatever trading and investment left in this country. One thing I am sure that many community members have now found out multiple ways to avoid tax and TDS.
