Bangladesh bowlers have done well. But Bangladesh will win the Test match, even against the strong New Zealand, I did not even dream of it. Bangladesh can fight hard. The match will probably be competitive if Bangladesh batsmen can play well. However, I do not believe in the batsmen of Bangladesh. No wonder they lost all their wickets before 100 runs. We have seen a lot of poor batting from the Bangladesh team.

Bangladesh bowlers good bowling was destroyed by Devon Conway century. The good thing for Bangladesh is Devon Conway is no more on crease, so there is a chance New Zealand can be bowled out at 350. Seeing the recent performance of Bangladesh I don't think they can win the game but they must try to chase runs and remain in the match. This will give there players confidence for future games.

Bangladesh is in trouble now in my opinion as Newzealand has been able to score 317 runs and they still have wickets in hand. I am not sure whether Bangladesh batsmen will be able to chase this target. If NZ is bowled out for 350 then to it will be a struggle for Bangladesh batter to chase that target.

There is nothing wrong with what the CBI did today if you are earning from the cryptocurrency business then you need to pay taxes on those earnings. There is still time to pay those taxes but it has to be done before the march of 2022. In case if anyone has still not filed the ITR then please do so. This was suppose to happen and I assume that the bill will now get passed in the next session of parliament.

That is dark. Hoping for people to get infected just for the sake of sports is crazy. Their lives matter more than the games themselves which is why I completely disagree with you here.

Once again, COVID is playing the spoilsport. Three important test series are ongoing right now - Ashes between Australia and England, Indian tour of South Africa, and Bangladeshi tour of New Zealand. If these series are called off, then the broadcasters will be left with crippling losses, and the international cricketing calendar maybe thrown into disarray once more. For the BCCI, the IPL will be a concern. They were initially planning to conduct the IPL 2022 from March-April this year. Omicron can force a change in their plans.

They might get only cancelled if any of the players or the members of the squad becomes positive. For now, everything is going smooth and I hope it remains like this only. IPL would have to be postponed once again because the daily positivity rate has started rising in India and by February end it will peak according to a report. If that is the case then it would be hard for BCCI to conduct IPL between March till June.

The idea of 24-team T20 world cup is good. But it will be of no use, if the 12 associate nations end up importing mercenary players from India and Pakistan (similar to what Oman did this time). Associate cricket is turning out to be a joke. More than half of the ICC member nations have teams comprised 100% from foreigners. Teams like UAE, Oman, Hong Kong, European nations.etc doesn't even have a single citizen representing them. And cricket is dying in countries which used to rely on native players. I can give dozens of examples - Kenya, Netherlands, Nepal, Iran, Argentina, Israel.etc.

There can be no better example than Kenya. This is a team that managed to reach the semi-finals of the 2003 ODI World Cup. But they received no support from the ICC and cricket died out completely in less than a decade.

They will import players if they want to participate and not look that bad in an international tournament. These countries still have ample amount of time in their hand to find talent and players within, they do have resources and money to do that but, they will still need to import players.

Once again the cycle got repeated, many investors did panic selling listening to fake news here and there and now would be regretting their actions.

Yes, but the same investors and everyone else has got this chance of buying whatever they sold - because BTC, ETH - is still very low.

People were already expecting that the finance minister might not bring this bill in this session because there's way too many, and more important bills, waiting for their queue. Someone even asked the minister if this bill might get a chance to show up at all and the minister replied that they are very serious about this bill and it will come this time.

Whatever their intentions, it was quite certain from the start that they simply do not have enough time to get this bill questioned when more priority bills are waiting in queue.
I don't know what really decides the priority of the government. Maybe elections decide the priority of the government because most of the bills that are passed don't sound much like a priority to me. But yes one thing for sure that government isn't really in the mood to bring this bill on table, maybe they don't want to pass it in this way, because if the government is listening to views of stakeholders just previous month and bringing in the bill the very next month, I feel there were a lot of additions/ subtractions to be done in that. Talking about the price I am very sure ban or unban isn't going to affect the international market for a very long time.

I think it is a mix of everything. The current third wave situation, then the UP election and the last marriage age bill for girls above all the ruckus created by the opposition made thing much worse. I am sort of happy that the bill did not get passed yet but eventually it will and if it doesn't favour the community then things will again become more uncertain.
If you see it in terms of upcoming elections, I doubt bill would be able to go through anytime before 2024, we are having many state elections this year and after that in 2023 government won't take any risk keeping the 2024 general elections in mind because already too many set of people are somewhat anguished with the government, but yes things are too speculative currently for the Indian crypto community.

Under these pandemic circumstances if the government and other political parties are united in having UP election within the scheduled time then imagine how important election is and all bills are passed considering the benefit one political party will get. They will try to defer it as long as they can because they would not try to angry this big Indian crypto community. But, there is another ideological wing of the present government that wants either a complete ban or a strict regulation. Things are pretty much shady at the moment, we will need to wait for the next parliament session to see what happens

Bangladesh U-19 team lost to India by almost 100 runs. However, the Bangladesh team did not lack talented players. Yet they lost by a huge margin only because of the remarkable bowling prowess of the Indian bowlers. Ravindra, Raj, Ravi Kumar and Vicky both took wickets. The Bangladesh team players needed to do some more homework because they went down to play against the best team in the tournament.

India and Sri Lanka will meet in the final. Sri Lanka is weaker than India. India will win the title.

Indian U-19 team played really well with a disciplined bowling effort followed by Raghuvanshi's half-century helped India win this tournament. SL was struggling from the beginning and it was a completely one-sided match. Bangladesh match was also not that different they, what can you expect from these two teams they are governed by the same board whose International teams performance has been deteriorating every year.

Never trust a shit coin. Once you have a good ROI do sell and buy back with the initial capital so you don't lose out on everything. Once can only risk holding bitcoin because it has a purpose and also a good project plan. But for most altcoins holding for too long could be too risky its better to sell and buy back so if it crashes you wouldn't be losing anything


2021 was the year of shit coins, check the ROI generated by these coins in just a few months. I too agree that you can completely believe in them but if you are in for a short gain of a few months then invest in shit coins and also be prepared to lose what you have invested. Risk is pretty high in such coins therefore always DYOR.

Give him some space guys, he was removed in disrespectful manner from ODI and T20 captaincy. He has done so much for Indian cricket and that's how you treat your legend player? Look at his performance ever since, he is not able to score runs anymore in Test. If he is bulling like that he will get more depressed with time.

If he is out of form, then the best possible course of action for him and for the team would be to take a break from test cricket and concentrate on domestic cricket for a few months. I have never heard about this excuse, like saying that a player is depressed and therefore he should be allowed to play in the national team. There are a lot of talented youngsters sitting at the bench, only because the oldies like Kohli would select players only based on their loyalty and not based on their skills and merit.

@Theones what’s done can’t be done and we can’t expect BCCI to apologise to him, or give out a public apology so he’ll have to just move on and play his natural game.

Also Virat is a much better player than Rahane and Pujara who should be removed from the team, and the current Indian team need’s Kohli aggressive behaviour to motivate them, however if he constantly fails with the bat in 2022 then yea I’ll too back the call for him to be removed from the team.

I agree too Rahane and Pujara should be removed and some else should be given a chance. Kohli is only trying to get some positive media attention and nothing else I think. I still would not like him to come back and show his aggressive behaviour on one hand and poor batting on the other. He is still struggling in the current test series and I think this will go on as he is more concentrated in doing what he is not good at than concentrating on his batting.

I prefer USDT on the TRX blockchain. If you are using an exchange to make that transfer for any amount then the charge will be 1USDT. If you are using tronlinkpro wallet then it will be like 4 TRX for any amount. The transaction is also pretty fast it gets credited in a couple of seconds. I have been using this technique every week for more than a year now and it works way cheaper than any other stable coin. But, please DYOR.
3311  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why should Gambling be legalized ? on: December 29, 2021, 11:18:40 PM
Legalizing gambling will have a bad effect on society. It is still considered bad to gamble, also with gambling the rich will become richer and the poor will become poorer. If tax benefit was the main benefit then the government would get more benefits by regulating drugs and prostitution. Jobs can be created in other ways too not everyone would like to work for a Casino. There would be illegal activities after legalizing gambling too. These casinos will do anything to lure new clients for which they might even start offering illegal drugs. This is a debatable topic and I still believe that gambling should not be legalized.

Equal chances? How did you reach that conclusion? India stand a far better chance at winning this one when compared to South Africa currently since they already lost 4 wickets and Elgar is the lone warrior.
South Africa could draw this match from this point as they still have Dean Elgar, Temba Bavuma and Quinton de Kock. First they need to try for batting for all 90 overs among these 3 players then if they manage with 1 or 2 wickets for first 2 sessions then they may go for trying to score for winning.

At the same time, I am sure the India bowling line up might create chances to push for winning as they need just 6 more scalps which is very easier for their 4 pacers and 1 spinner. I guess Ashwin may shine on the final day still pacers are alone seeming enough to finish up in first 2 sessions itself for India favor.


I do not think SA can draw the match they are already down with 4 wickets and have just scored 94 runs. This match is slowly moving out of their hands and with the deteriorating pitch condition, it will be very hard to play. I think they will start losing wickets in the quick intervals from now on they have only one day left. Dean Elgar is still batting well but for how long?
3313  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: December 28, 2021, 11:42:29 PM
Kohli is only removed from captaincy of odi and t20. He is still captain of test team and strong member of squad in all formats. He must not start such things about BCCI since he had lot of cricket left to play. He can perform better as a batsmen if he has no burden of captaincy. Honestly I like him as a player but he do cheap things most of the times.
None of us want Kohli's remarkable career to end badly. Sourav Ganguly, who is now the president of BCCI, also retired from all forms of cricket at an early age due to conflict with the board. Kohli should improve his performance without getting into conflict with the board. His captaincy has not brought good results to India in recent times, now his performance is even worse. If he continues to perform like that, he is going to be dropped from the Indian squad quickly.
Personal ego and conflicts have very bad impact on many legendary sports persons because many times they feel not good about these and done unusual decisions which bring them down with very good career right now same thing happening with Kohli few months back I was never expecting things like this can happen against player like Kohli but sadly suddenly after arrival of Ganguly many things changed for him and now talks about his career on top on all forums of cricket.

Hopefully he will take some wise decision and will not go ahead with his personal ego and try to end this all for the sack of his outstanding career and his country.

Kohli's behaviour has been consistently like this whether he is off the field or in the field. What can you expect from him? He just came out shown the world what happens when your ego takes control over your decision-making capabilities. This was the primary reason why India had not won any major tournament under his captaincy. He is a good batter but it does not mean India cannot find a talent better than him this issue will hit him hard when the time comes.

Unbelievable scenes unfolding at the MCG. England blown away by Scott Boland and Mitchell Starc for 68, as they slip to an innings defeat. Australia is up by 3-0 in Ashes, and with every passing day a 5-0 whitewash looks likely. Had anyone even considered this possibility before the start of the series? I have followed most of the posts in this thread, and a lot of users actually predicted 5-0 in England's favor. And today morning they got bowled out for a two digit total, and that too without key bowlers in the Australian playing XI (Hazlewood, Richardson.etc).

This is a nightmare for the England team and fans. Something is seriously gone wrong in their team. No one would have expected that England will close the year on such miserable performance. They need to work out on something or make big changes in the team to be able to show some performance in the remaining last two test matches.

How will you explain the bowling by Scott Boland. He took 6 wickets in just 4 overs and gave only seven runs. I wonder how many records have broken by this bowling spell from Scott Boland ?
Australian looking in full form at the moment and their target should be to whitewash the series.

I won't give him all the credit. You cannot forget the English batting lineup, they have been struggling from the beginning of this series. Nothing new though in the past to they have proved that they cannot play in any kind of pitches nor can face new bowlers. That being said I think this series will be a whitewash.

It doesn't matter how BCCI has earned it, the discussion is now bcci is using it for its own political gains. They are doing what England and Australia do with small boards previously. As you said bcci and pcb both started moment together but bcci now has zero tolerance towards PCB because of political reasons.
Not sure of the political gains but I agree that the cricket board is being highly controlled and even manipulated by the bigger countries mainly India, earlier in the 1990s Australia and even England to some degree.

Anyone remembers there used to be a Champions League which was such a refreshing aspect but was cut down because certain countries were not making enough money from it and that shows the level of manipulation that exists in cricket and leagues. It also depends who is the chairman of the ICC because if more decisions are made with money in their mind, it will soon get rogue.
What will the chaiman of ICC do here? ICC is being controlled by these big boards because of the enormous contribution that they get from them. BCCI cannot work outside the Indian government jurisdiction. The Indian government does not want to keep ties with Pakistan and the same has been followed by the BCCI.

PS : Meh doesn't matter, we are going to lose anyway lol  Grin
I am having hopes of India winning a match and if they are able to win the series it will be history as South Africa is hard to beat in their home soil and India coming with victory over Australia and England and if they continue the same pattern it would be great. The best part is that India has world class bowlers which they lacked when they used to tour earlier and if the batsman clicks then it will be an interesting series.
Nothing wrong with that. We do have good test team and excellent seam attack which could test Proteas batters. I remember our last tour of South Africa, our bowlers were extremely impressive and batters equally shit lol.

Anyway Centurion is SA's Gabba. Their numbers are very dominating there. Win = 21 , Lost = 2

There is no comparison of SA squad with India squad. Though India has not very good test record at SA they have so far won only 3 test at SA and never won any test series there. Its a very good chance for india to better there record at SA, hope that kohli BCCI row won't effect this test series.
Indian team looks far better than the SA side. India has won the toss and decided to bat first. I am doubtful about the performance of Virat Kohli, Pujara and Rahane. The middle order has been out of form and if the opener are not able to score good runs on the board then SA might have an upper edge.

https://coinmarketcap.com/ico-calendar/
https://coinmarketcap.com/airdrop/ongoing/
The link above is an example of some ongoing Airdrops and ICO, I don't recommend you to 100% believe in Airdrops and ICO if you want to invest, but do your research before joining.
Some of the Airdrops that I follow on the twitter and telegram channels are proven to pay off, but you only get a small part of the profit because the amount of prizes you get will adjust to the number of participants, for ICOs, do a lot of research before joining, because there are many ICOs that you will see, make sure you use the experience you have if you want to invest

CMC based airdrop doesn't guarantee that your will be a winner. It more like a lottery system. But, if you are looking for authentic airdrop then CMC is good. Also in 2021 ICO has virtually no use as most platform prefer IDO. You can check Coinlist for both ICO and IDO apart from CMC.

The third test has started. Australia won the toss and elected to bowl first. I would say it is a good decision as England has already lost 2 wickets and have only 14 runs on the scoreboard. Malan and Root are on the pitch. In my opinion, they both need to stay there till the end of day 1 as after both of them no one has been able to score.
