Hopefully this change in the domestic structure will help find and bring some good players in the Pakistani team.
Yes, this could get more good players to Pakistan team. Most of the time mistakes that were pointed against Pakistan cricket players is, they don't hear the words of the senior players. This went into controversy during the world cup match as well, and how the domestic cricket is taken forward will be watched by the leading cricketing teams.

If Pakistan is able to get good players up by changing their domestic cricket structure, that would be great. If your structure is good like the Australian and England cricket teams, you will automatically get the good players leading the team and there will be no favoritism or politics within the team.
But this is going to take some very long time for Pakistan as right now favoritism and politics is on his high in recent days we have many nominations on favoritism and no one merit so its not easy way for Pakistan to achieve level like Australia and England here personal likes and dislikes damaging too much for very long time.

^ lol this meme is funny.

And it's not the first time when Kohli took this decision.



@indy : Indian team made it look easy, the only time windies were in the game --first day first session-- After this they gave up against Indian middle-lower order and Indian bowlers. was expecting at least some fight in the final inning.

Yeah, i was checking the point table and as of now it's look weird TBH.

India won 2 match series and got 120 points
SL and NZ both won 1-1 game and have 60 points each
AUS and ENG both won 1-1 and 1 draw, they have 32 points each.

Soon India is going to have 4-5 match series as well. Less win in 4-5 match series - less points. So plenty of chances for every team to comeback, teams playing less game got extra edge IMO.
India is going to play two series at home against South Africa and Bangladesh and then one away series against New Zealand this is very good time for them to widening gape from tough competitors as they can won these all three and two are two tests and one is three tests against South Africa in my view they can go through 3 - 0 so they will lead for some long time.

Thirty percent of all investment-grade securities now have negative yields. In other words, investors who acquire the debt and hodl to maturity are guaranteed to make a loss.

Why not just buy #Bitcoin and HODL?

https://twitter.com/bitcoin/status/1168311553134751744?s=21

Very easy answer.
A lot of inverstors simply cannot buy bitcoins, to many difficulties.
Technological (how to store them?)
Legal/Fiscal (how to pay taxes on them?)
Compliance (am I allowed to buy bitcoin? Is it within my management mandate?)
Regulatory pressure NOT to be involved in crypto’s
Reputational risk
Etc
Etc

This is why an integrated product like the one Bakkt wants to launch is so important from an institutional money adoption perspective.
Your many points are valid as I know many peoples they want to buy but have many problems you already mention and they cannot manage them to solve so they are going away from bitcoin.
3044  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Italian League Prediction Thread (Serie A) on: September 02, 2019, 07:05:49 PM

Perhaps what will dominate the top flight is Juventus, Inter Milan, Napoli and AS Roma. in my opinion the only ones who can balance the power of Juventus are them, but I still champion Juventus to win the Scudetto in 2019-2020. what else Inter Milan who again clean up by bringing in great players like Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sances from Manchester United.

Juventus is indeed one of the favorite teams to win.
But this season is very interesting for A series, because for the Champion alone is very difficult to predict. All teams are still competing to be the leader of Serie A. We just enjoy every Italian league match. Juventus must prepare this season to compete in order to maintain the scudetto.

Surely this season is going to be very exciting as Juventus is not going to win easily they have Napoli and Inter Milan both are in good shape and can give some good and tough resistance to them hopefully we will watch some exciting soccer and good results from these teams Roma  start is not good as they are struggling to win home and away.

I think New Zealand got lucky in this match as Sri Lanka should of got the win, the rain I think played a part in this match as it can change the momentum of the match. I did think that New Zealand middle order batted well to help get them the win.

To sum up we can say that NZ was lucky who was able to win this match and Srilanka continue their bad form and bad luck.
The rain should have help Srilanka but NZ played better in the latter part of the innings.
Now as we are watching New Zealand for some weeks they are improving and on this tour lady of luck is also with them so now they deserve wins they already lost some big even they was deserve for this big win in this twenty/20 they done good job and won.

Sad to see that Djokovic could not continue after losing first two sets. He retired which means officially Djokovic is out from US Open. Now the platform is wide open for Medvedev.

I do not see much competition for Medvedev to reach to Semi and to face Federer. If he somehow can beat Federer then Nadal will be his next challenge to have his first US Open title.

There are still a lot to unfold in this US Open.
As you already saying now all set for Medvedev I am also feeling now this all platform is set for him as Djokovic is out of tournament and no one can stop him until final but still some upsets can happen as we have in women's two top orders out of tournament and now this is wide open for some good and talented players.

I did quite well in matchweek 4, 16 points. That’s pretty good I think. International break comes at the wrong time for me.
I am feeling good with this break as I already lost few picks and still have some personal issues which need time to fix so this is going to be good for me hopefully in next round I will back in my top five positions good luck to all and congrats for winner of this round.

^^ Bhai no one saying that windies going to win according to current scenario. But we were arguing about why Kohli didn't opt for follow on. We are trying to make sense or looking for at least one logical reason behind this decision.

Logically there is no reason on why Kholi did not took follow on.  
Tell me one thing, which is considered as a more big win in test cricket ?

Wining a test match by  200 Runs and an innings ?
OR winning a test match by 600 runs  Tongue ?

Kholi must be out of his mind.
Kohli out of his mind its not problem for India as now they are 120 points and leading World Test Championship table after winning second test by big margin and now they have some good edge against all teams and in very strong position to win this inaugural World Test Championship congrats to them for this big and good win.

Man of the hour.. Ishant Sharma  Grin

Finally one shot away from his first half-century and he along with Hanuma produced the Highest run partnership in the Indian inning, plus he's playing faster than Hanuma lol  

Windies are now frustrated with Ishant. They might be cursing their fielders for this  Grin



Edit : India all out 416 runs

In response windies struggling at 14/4

Boom boom bumrah hattrick !!!
Now we can say West Indies Cricket is in RIP because they have just some talent in ODI and Twenty/20 but in test now they are going to touch historical Zero land from where they have no return ticket.

ESPN released an interesting article earlier today, giving a small preview of all 32 teams. Pointing out key players, FIBA team rankings and prediction for each of those teams. They have USA and Spain being semifinalists, Australia playing in the finals and Serbia as a champion. Do you agree?

I'll post mine just for the heck of it - I have Spain/Serbia to reach the semis, Greece finalist and USA winning it all.
I agree with you this can happen but still this world cup could be very interesting and we can expect any upset now many countries taking serious interest in this game and spending some good money outside USA we have some very good and talented teams from Europe specially Spain and Serbia these both can create problems for any one even USA.

Arsenal vs Tottenham is the pick of the games this weekend, the North London Derby. I think there will definitely be goals for both teams.

Surely it would make us easier to guess the probable top 5 in the table.
Spurs drew with Man City while they lost to Newcastle. While Arsenal has recently won over Newcastle and only lost to Liverpool, which is the only team with 100% win till now in the tournament. So head to head, Arsenal seems to be in a much better position.
Arsenal is right now better then Spurs and they are playing at home this is going to be good advantage for them in my opinion they can win this game as they have some decent start of season on other way Spurs is not good enough but they have ability to bounce back any time for me home and draw is going to be safe bet.
3052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: August 30, 2019, 10:03:49 PM
It's over now almost. I don't expect Hanuma Vihari and Pant will do wonders but still they are not like noob actually.
With the way the match is going India will cross almost 300 runs and that is not a bad score in the pitch, i am yet to see Vihari play but he is scoring runs for India in this series and with the bowling line up India has it is a really good score as i cannot see any really consistent player in the West Indies team. The domestic circuit in India is strong and so is the reason they are producing quality players.
Any score 300+ surely is going to be good for India as their bowling is very good and West Indian batting is ordinary they still need some good time to fix these problems and India is not going to give them this chance as right now they have some good chance for gaining good points and surely they are not going to miss this golden opportunity.

I watched Medvedev closely yesterday and he is really good. The boy has the potential and patience to rule the Tennis kingdom if he keep up with it. Dellien did not play that bad but Medvedev was better than him. At some point (quarter finals) Medvedev is going to face Djokovic. This will be interesting to watch.

We told you mate,  Grin Medvedev is really playing good tennis right now specially in the last two months or so and has the potential to challenge the big three. It will be a interesting to see him facing Djokovic and could pull a upset here because Djokovic is not 100% in this tournament.

Federer in three sets over Evans. Djokovic will be facing Denis Kudla in about three hours.

@vella85 - yup, womens side has its own upsets, but Osaka looks strong but Barty is still up to the challenge.
Right now outside top three we have three another young players and they have potential to go through and upset any one in top three but its depend on how they play because all big three have patience and experience and these three need some time specially Kyrgios he is good but have some other problems and Medvedev and Roblev doing extra ordinary right now.

Bro, Liverpool FC is a huge part of my life, I go to around 10-12 games every season. I went to Kiev & Madrid for the two CL Finals. I met forum member micgoossens at the final in Madrid.
I admit that LFC is the craziest Liverpool fan in the forum I have seen. So, his words and analysis weights more than anyone else here. I am not meaning that others are not good. I see often some users are too good to predict a correct score. The EPL pool is crazy 🤪

Anyway, next match against Burnley. Away match but I predict we are going to win by 2+ goals margin. To be precised I would say 3 -1 win for Liverpool.
My feeling about this match is Liverpool 3 - 0 because they are not going to give any chance to Burnley so better try this Arsenal was good in attack so they have one goal but Burnley is not good enough like them even playing at home so better try with this.

In another friendly today, Germany won with 10pts difference vs Australia - the Germans have some good quality this year.

Personally, I believe that Australia has a better team than Germany.
It was just that Australian coach was trying new strategies in the game and they lost.
I don't think that Germany would do a lot in the world cup tournament, nothing special or quality in this team.

Thats totally wrong - just in my opinion of course - but Germans dominated them and were stronger on all positions. Have you watched the match? I am sure you didnt... Wink
Most of time friendly games never near to real games because mostly coaches try to experiments so this game is nothing to talk about quality of teams this was just for practices real could be in next few days where we can talk about quality of every team.

I don't agree with users claiming Ben Stokes as one of the best players in the world right now. IMO, he is a very over-rated player and he is incapable of single-handedly leading his team to victory. On the other hand, Steve Smith and Virat Kohli have led their team to victories all by themselves several times. Stokes has done that on a few occasions, but he is miles behind Smith / Kohli.
No one comparing Stokes with Smith/Kohli as these both are typical batsmen and third one is in all-rounders category never any one compare Stokes with these and stokes time is now starting as he has some good innings we can say bright future is waiting for this great all rounder.   
3058  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: August 28, 2019, 03:39:49 PM
Both Rublev and Fabbiano are in my radar now. I would like to see them how far they go in this tournament. I am much hurt for Theim than Tsitsipas. Earlier this morning Monfils G and Kyrgios N got very easy wins. I know Kyrgios sometimes rude but he does play good tennis.

I am still working out to find my finalist in this US open.

Edit:
By the way, apart from the top three, Medvedev is looking very promising. Anyone here thinks that he has a chance to win the title?
Now I am feeling he can go through in Semi Final and this could be very interesting from others Rubley is also in my Radar as I lost my first bet just because of him and its hurting my too much Kyrgios is also done good in first round but we cannot predict about him.

You have a great timing lol.
It was an ad that popped up on my screen then I realized I was about to miss the tournament. Anyway, good thing is that I did not miss many.

Quote
I am interested to see how Stefanos Tsitsipas is going to play in this tournament and if he will climb the ranking ladder after the tournament.

Besides the top three legends Djokovic, Federer, Nadal - I have few young players who I think play very good tennis and they have better future. Kyrgios, Monfils G, Thiem D, Tsitsipas are those guys for me. May be not much for Kyrgios but I like his attitudes. By the way, Thiem is my key man. I love the way he wins his matches and play fearless tennis.

I miss Murry.
Today we have first upset of this Tournament Tsitsipas lost against very talented young Russian Roblev he was on fire and done great job he never allows his opponent to comeback in match now Thiem is also struggling and lost first set and broken in third set look like he can win but need some hard work for his first win of this tournament.

Edit:  Thiem is also out in first round very poor performance from him.
