Even though there is interruption due to rain, the scoring for the day is taking place without much difference. In a single day England started the innings at 85 runs and have reached 284 runs. Then India have begun it's innings and have scored 125 runs. Altogether 324 runs have been scored in a single day. This is good scoring in a single day. If this kind of scenario continues we'll get the result on this match. Both teams have got advantage out of the rain, lets wait what is gonna happen by the last two days.

Although the match was delayed due to rain, the match is not likely to be abandoned. I also checked the weather report. And so if England doesn't want to lose badly in this match, they have to play well. England is now 257 runs behind. The collection of India is 125 runs. If English bowlers can stop India within 250, then England will have a chance to win this match. But if India gives more than 400 runs target, this match will be under India's control. Batting against more than 400 runs on the fifth day is very difficult to win.
India has already a lead of 257 runs. Panth is in excellent form and Pujara has already reached his 50. It will be very easy for India to get a lead of more than 350 runs. India is totally in control of the match now. Only rain can be an issue otherwise I do not foresee any issues.

Rain have interrupted the game. At the moment Jonny Bairstow is at 91 runs in 113 balls. England is at 200/6 after 45.3 overs. This interruptions will surely help England, and in the same over Jonny Bairstow was given lbw wicket. Jonny Bairstow went for a review and umpire changed his decision from out to not out. When everyone are eagerly looking for the century of Bairstow, rain have interrupted.
He only need 9 runs, he will surely get his century. I think he is the only one batter from the English team who has been consistently performing. If the rain interruption wouldn't had happened he would by now scored his century. He is going to take all his time and stay as long as he can on the pitch.

Their top batting order has been destroyed by the Indian bowlers, they are still trailing by 332 runs and have already lost 5 wickets. I hope they form a partnership otherwise this match will be go in favour of the Indian side.
You are expecting an almost impossible scenario. Bairstow and Stokes are their last pair of proper batsmen and they will buckle due to heavy pressure.
It will take a miracle for them to try and defeat India at this stage. Bumrah and Siraj will continue ripping through their batting order in my opinion. I feel that India has already won the test series at this point.
Yes, Indians are way ahead in this test match and 90% chances are that they will win it easily unless we see a miracle from here. The only hope for the England team is to save the follow on which seems quite impossible.
A poor and disappointing performance by the England team. I wasn't expecting them to bat like that. Don't expect that Jonny Bairstow and Ben Stokes can recover from here. There is too much pressure now.

I still rely on the England team. India were able to score 416 runs only for Rishab Pant and Jadeja's outstandong batting. England's Bairstow and Stokes are still at the crease. If this pair is able to play well, England will be able to collect more than 300 easily. However, if these two batsmen are out quickly, it will be difficult for England to follow on. But I believe the pair of Bairstow and Stokes will be able to play well.
Rishab Panth and Jadeja formed a good partnership while they were batting earlier. Panth was going after the English bowlers whereas jadeja was rotating the strike. Bairstow and Stokes have done the same when they were playing against Newzealand. I am hoping they would do the same today.

The Bangladesh team's performance in every format of cricket has gone from bad to worst and now pathetic. If they continue to perform in the same manner then they will become a team like Zimbabwe. The Bangladesh board needs to find talent suitable for different format. Except a few players all others should be removed from the national team and new players should be given a chance.
2785  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: July 03, 2022, 03:54:07 AM
I never expected England to perform so poorly in this test match. They are not able to play the pacer whereas they were batting extraordinarily good against the Newzealand pacers. It seems that again they might need Jonny Bairstow to come to their rescue. Their top batting order has been destroyed by the Indian bowlers, they are still trailing by 332 runs and have already lost 5 wickets. I hope they form a partnership otherwise this match will be go in favour of the Indian side.

ODI eh? I don't remember when was the last time i watched the ODI, may be last WC idk. I didn't even looked at the tally once and only got to know about that when you mentioned this thingy sometime back. Anyway it's good to see that smaller boards are also getting bilateral series, we need more of that as it's still not enough, specially from PIG-3.
I have the same opinion. Bilateral series is only for hardcore fans. People like me prefer either ICC tournaments, or triangular/quadrangular series involving multiple teams, but these type of tournaments are no longer being organized by the cricket boards. In fact, I forget when for the last time I heard about a triangular series. Previously such tournaments used to be hosted by cities such as Sharjah, Singapore and Toronto. But everything came to a halt because of the packed international calendar.

I agree with you. The tri-series tend to be very exciting and enjoyable. But now the countries are not interested in hosting the tri-nation series. Perhaps because they have a busy schedule, or maybe the tri-series is less profitable for the board. But as a general spectator, the tri-series is very enjoyable. I remember later, we used to watch the Asia Cup. It was very exciting. But after 2018, Asia Cup was not held.
I also agree tri series are much more enjoyable to watch then bilateral series. I hope one of the big board comes out and organize a tri series with big teams. I do not think a tri series is less profitable but with so much cricket being played throughout the year scheduling one might be complicated.

--------------------------
Excellent recovery after 98/5

Now time for Poms to slog Indian bowlers Grin

The performance of the Indian batsmen was incredible. It was unthinkable that they would end their innings at 416 after losing top-order five batsmen by just 98 runs. Even in the last wicket partnership, India scored 41 runs. I say it's because of the stupidity of England's bowlers. If they had bowled in a controlled manner, India would have finished their innings by 320.
I still do not have an idea why the English bowlers were so sluggish. The performed good when they were playing against Newzealand and suddenly they are missing out on everything. Yesterday, the whole team wangeared up but as Rishabh Pant started slaughtering them both bowlers and fielders were losing their momentum. Sometimes you cannot expect the wrong and then you start committing mistakes that lead to your end.

England have already lost two wickets and now the game got delayed because of rain. I hope the match starts soon or a day will be lost.

Sometimes you also need to see who are those people gives their feedbacks because sometimes there are casino thread creator pays a thread bumper just to show to the forum users that they have relevance and their casino is good according to their paid reviews. But threads here is really a good reference its just we need to scan those reviews if that one came from legitimate people who test their casino and not those fake nor spamming users.

I personally wouldn't worry about such cases. bitcointalk is not kind of site where an unfair review of a gambling site can go unnoticed and just hang there forever. Write such a review and a massive backlash is unavoidable. Overall, it will do no good to a site that wanted to misrepresent itself.
Agreed!
Bitcointalk is not that kind of a forum. If someone is caught doping such things then apart from the backlash they might also get banned or might get an instant negative trust for scamming. There have been instances in the past so there are a lot of mechanism in place here. I would always believe on the feedback left on the respective threads by forum user.

Newzealand VS Ireland
Three ODI matches will be played. A good opportunity for the Irish team. They played well with India in two T20 matches which India won. I know this ODI series will be won by Newzealand but it will be an interesting series considering the previous performance of the Irish side.
2790  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: July 02, 2022, 12:56:07 AM
This 76* runs partnership between Pant and Jaddu saved India from another collapse. Don't want to jinx it but i wish they bat for another 40 overs.
Every Indian batter were looking good and did the hard work except Iyer but each one of em failed but it's mainly because of vintage Anderson and new kid Potts.
Poor Kohli can't catch a break at all. Iyer need to work on facing short ball otherwise he won't feature in test team regularly especially in SENA countries, you know you can't play short ball when 40 yo guy scaring you with his moderate speed.

Edit
Lol pant reverse sweeping Anderson again.
India have scored 286 runs and has not lost any other wickets. Rishab Pant's batting surprised me. He scored 128 runs off 99 balls. Pant's strike rate is more than 129. And India collected 75 runs in the last 10 overs. Although Jadeja batted responsibly, Rishab Pant is very aggressive today. If India can collect like 350-400, it will be a good collection for them.

Rishab Pant returned to the dressing room after collecting 146 runs. He has hit 19 fours and 4 over boundaries. Seeing his batting, I thought he was performing in a T20 match. However, the sad thing is that he could not score 150 runs for only 4 runs. Jadeja is unbeaten on 83 runs. At the end of the first day, India's collection was 338/7. India will probably lose all their wickets between 360-370.
I was hoping that he would complete his 150 runs. Overall without his contribution, India would have collapsed on the first day of this test match. Jadeja as usual came to the rescue again and is still not out. I hope he is able to get his century today. India needs to score more than 350 runs in their first innings as the English side can bat as we have seen in the previous test match with NZ.

BTW, did anyone followed the match between Australia and Sri Lanka? Lankans got a taste of their own medicine, as the Aussie spinners destroyed them.

I watched the match. But I was not ready to see such a catastrophe for the Sri Lankan batsmen. Sri Lanka lost all their wickets for 113 runs. Nathan Lyon and Trevis Head took four wickets each. And Karunaratne has scored the highest 23 runs for Srilingkar. Sri Lanka gave a target of only 5 runs. Australia reached the target by collecting 10 runs from 4 balls. The win was what Australia needed after a humiliating defeat in the ODI series.

This is why I have been saying again and again that host teams should not prepare substandard pitches to give undue advantage to home players. Now see what happened. The pitch was so horrible that Travis Head picked up 4 wickets. Can you imagine this? Before this match, Mr.Head had a total of 0 wickets from 26 matches. If Alex Carey was not there in the squad, then in all probability he would have been the keeper. This entire series is turning out to be a shit show. If I was the chairman of the ICC, then I would immediately ban Sri Lanka from test cricket or at least ban them from hosting any international matches.
By the way who are you? An ICC official, curator of the pitch, a field staff or someone who knows nothing but still knows everything.

 I do not understand from where you got that audacity to proclaim that you are a king/queen of a pitch and decision maker. Just read what you said, if a host team follows your recommendation then they will always be buried.

Technically you should point out on the performance of a team than question the pitch. It is known that South Asian countries create pitch suitable to a spin bowler? This is why they have maximum spinners.

Overall it is the srilankan team and the board that has to be blamed. Moreover, I am happy they are generating revenue not like Pakistan where their minister said donot drink tea or we will be bankrupt.

2793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: July 01, 2022, 08:12:16 AM

They will never get a lot of chances to play against the big teams. And that is the way ICC works. Now the BCCI is in talks about blocking 2.5 to 3 months every year for the IPL. The number of ICC tournaments are increasing. Any remaining time will be taken up by bilateral series between the tier 1 test nations. Those in the tier 2 (Zimbabwe, Ireland and Afghanistan) can play amongst themselves and that's all they can do. Get some big wins, such as the upset win by Ireland against England during the 2011 CWC, and there is a chance that the big teams may give 1-2 matches to them once in a while.

Nothing can be done for these Tier2 teams. ICC cannot do anything as BCCI is the biggest revenue generator for them and they will increase the duration of IPL and block international cricket for a few months. The only option left now is that these teams play within themselves and try to improve their game. 
2794  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: July 01, 2022, 08:07:07 AM
What a pathetic performance from the lankans and that too at home, no wonder test cricket is dying there for good and overall everywhere.

Aussie spinners outbowled Lankans bowlers completely. Heck even Head took a 4-for.



What happened to Srilankan batters? They were not able to play on a pitch created by them. This pitch from the beginning was a spinner paradise. Srilanka had more spinners than medium pacers but yet they were not able to stop the Australian batters and nor were able to play only two Australian spinners. What a shameful way to lose a 5-day match in a day.

Saw the highlights between Srilanka and Australia as I do not have the patience to watch it throughout the day and felt that the winner of this test match will be decided by the spinners again. Steve Smith's dismissal was unnecessary there was no need to take that run. The whole point of test cricket is to check the patience and skills of both batter and bowler. The game is still in its early stage but Australia needs to rethink its batting strategy as they have already lost 3 wickets and trail by 114 runs.
2797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: June 30, 2022, 02:28:08 AM
There is more excitement than expected in this Ireland vs India T20 series. Despite playing well, Ireland lost the match by 4 runs, scoring almost the winning run. With a series win, Hardik begins his international captaincy career. There's no judging a series against Ireland, luck is on his side. The bowling wasn't good, the batting was poor except for Hooda and Samson. Deepak Hooda is an incredibly talented young man. Having the opportunity to play for the national team, he makes the most of it.

I was very surprised to see Ireland's performance. This team will play better in the future. After batting on a huge target of 226 runs, they lost by only 4 runs. Almost every batsman in Ireland has tried to play well. Experienced bowlers like Bhuvnewar Kumar also gave a lot of runs. The players of the Irish team have proved they have the ability.
The team will only play better in the future if they get more opportunities like this. They need more experience to play international cricket. They have the potential but unfortunately they lack experience. In these times when more emphasis is given to franchise T20 cricket i doubt they will get any more opportunities like the one they got with India.
2798  Economy / Gambling / Re: Bitcoin Casinos Vs Ethereum Casinos on: June 29, 2022, 09:24:09 AM

From your point of view, are you saying ETH is more preferable to use or what?
That is the only disadvantage when it comes of using that network, probably we use another network if they support such to reduced the much expenses, today we have many gambling site which allows deposit/withdrawal with Trc20, doge, Ltc and many more but of all people still prefer using bitcoin.
it is always an option of each of us, that is why Gambling sites nowadays offering or accepting multiple ways to deposit and play because  they understand our sentiments as gamblers.
and besides Ethereum as a second biggest currency in the past years indeed that this has been the popular option but when the sites starts accepting multiple altcoins? with much cheaper fees and faster transactions? people uses them like me,
I prefer using other cryptocurrency than Bitcoin or Ethereum. Ethereum never tried because of the fee. Bitcoin fee are still less but sometimes it gets delayed therefore I prefer other cryptocurrencies that are faster and yet have a cheap fees. Almost all gambling sites are now offering other cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin and Ethereum.
2799  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: June 29, 2022, 05:02:40 AM
I loved their fighting spirit, chasing 200+ score is never an easy task but they almost did it. Associate teams needs such kind of series regularly and ICC + full nations specially big teams should go ahead and start touring them even if they are sending their 2nd string squad, it's a win-win for everyone.

Positive sign for Ravi Bishnoi, he bowled beautifully last night despite going for runs. Irish batters were struggling against him, he could have picked 3-4 wickets if it wasn't for no ball drama and dropped catch.

Yeah.. Ravi Bishnoi was the player who won the match for India. All the other bowlers were going for more than 12 runs per over, when he was introduced. Bhuvi went for 29 from his 2 and Umran went for 14 in his first. But in his first two overs, Bishnoi conceded only 11 runs and that was the game changer. Irish batsmen were ahead until then, but two tight overs created a lot of pressure and
Forget about Indian bowlers, what happened to the batters? Except Hooda and Samson everyone was a big failure. Dinesh Karthik and Axar Patel went for a duck. I thought the Indian side might have taken the Irish batters for granted. They lost by just 4 runs this match might not go well with the selectors next time.
2800  Local / India / Re: Did anyone read this about TDS? on: June 28, 2022, 11:22:15 AM
Yes ofcourse, TDS of 1% was in the news from quite some time now and we just didn't knew when is the government actually planning on to implement it.
Recently there's another news that's spreading FUD in the market which says an additional 28% tax will be levied as GST on the already 30% tax.
The retarded government is playing it smart to get people completely out of crypto investments.

source: https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/other/28-25-gst-on-crypto-transactions-india-is-reportedly-mulling-another-tax-levy-next-week/ar-AAYLXUC?fromMaestro=true
Welcome back mate!
I haven't seen you being active on this board for quite sometime now. There are a very few who literally respond or create genuine topics on this board now days.

Coming back to your reply. I do not think that is a FUD, the government has gone crazy and they will add GST sometime in the coming days. I also feel they will not implement such a huge percentage.

I also strongly feel that we create a service within this forum wherein those who are active and have a rank above Member can help each other by selling/ buying Bitcoin for INR using an escrow service provided by some forum members. What do you think?

You mean a P2P trade for forum members of Indian sub with an escrow. Sounds good.
But again, just like there are very few active members on this board so the number of trades will be too slim.
At least, it's better than nothing. We already have a telegram group so may be we can use that before placing trades on exchanges.
If we get a P2P trade from our telegram channel then well and good, otherwise we can still proceed with exchanges in case of emergencies.

What an irony. This makes me remember the good old days. My early days in crypto were just the same.
We used to buy and sell bitcoin using the P2P trades back then and I guess those days are coming back.
It's time to grow our network of trusted members. I already have some though. May be this will help us evading tax.
I hope webtricks doesn't read this else he will start with tax evasion and stuff. Lol  Grin . I'm kidding webby!!
I am working on it. I will never use telegram. I will create an ANN and share in that group.

Let's create a thread specifically to discuss how we can take it further. You should take the lead.
Besides that, I think that why should our trades be public. Shouldn't there be some kind of privacy.
Hence I suggested the telegram channel.
Hmm! That is also correct privacy is highly required. What do you suggest with Telegram? I mean we need to evaluate based on activity on the forum as I was thinking about every indian here gets the benefit.

Let me create a telegram channel and a post on the service  section with some criterias and accordingly we more further. What do you think?
