Previously teams like Oman and Kuwait used to recruit players from the Pakistanis and Indians residing in these countries. But now they are directly recruiting first-class players from the sub-continent. They just give an employment offer to these players so that they qualify for the residence requirement and then pack the national team with foreigners. The problem here is that teams that are dependent on native players (Kenya, Nepal, Thailand, Japan, Papua New Guinea.etc) suffer because of these mercenary teams. There should be a limit of 4-5 foreigners in the playing XI.
It is true that the players in GCC teams are not even having citizenship status and all you need is to live in the country for 4 years and the ICC have given them a exception in the name of developing Cricket and the average salary of the players is 25k AED which is a good pay scale considering how much other professionals earn even with years of experience Grin.

Yes, this is because Gulf countries do not grant citizenship to any individual except an Arab. You can work and have a permanent residence their but you will still not get citizenship in that country. I think only most of them follow the same principal with some exceptions.

Zimbabwe's career was very good. They have been destroyed only because of the internal troubles of their management and because of the stupidity of the management. Their team had lots of talented players. Many players retire due to management problems and it also hinders the creation of talented new young players. If Namibia's management is experienced, and they really want to improve their domestic cricket, then maybe in the future they will be able to challenge teams like Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Afghanistan.
Currently, in African continent the biggest issue is quota system which is hurting them very badly in Southern African side because their blacks are in majority but hey are lacking of facilities and many other things now have power but still unable to do some better things. Whites are minorities but still dominant in all ways. Zimbabwe and South Africa also having same issues but fail to change things on merit same problem will be accord in here if they want to bring some good quality and better results than they need to start from very low level and give equal chances to all without any quota or any restriction.

But does talent need a quota? The board need to hunt for talent rather than having a quota in sports. If you do not have talent but you get selected because of the quota then will the performance of the team increase or decrease? I am against the quota system in sports, there are other ways to provide quota. This is why teams from the African subcontinent are struggling so much.

My advice to you is never to ask trading questions in the public domain because you will eventually get confused after seeing multiple replies. The decision to take profit should always depend on our requirement. You need to assess your requirement first and then decide. Trading can be only learned through experience and not advice.

Earlier in 5-6 years before i adopted bitcoin as a payment system but now i totally stopped using it due to high transaction fees.
few months before i have noted just to sent $100 the transaction fees i was charged $40 or above.

Now i hate btc as payment. I only consider it as invest as said buying in lower price ans sell it when price is higher.

There is no reason to hate Bitcoin as payment if you do not understand one simple logic and that is when the USD value of Bitcoin increases automatically the transaction fee also increases. I am still able to send Bitcoin by paying a fee between the range of 1 to 12 satoshi. Do always check mempool.space before transferring Bitcoin. This website will help you to determine what satoshi amount can be paid for transactions. If you use any exchange then they have their own fees which are always high.

I do not think that amount can be retrieved. Unless the contract address that has received your token had a function implemented that allows it to transfer back the received tokens. But, why would a developer set such a function? It is better to forget that amount and learn from your mistake.
3666  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Be careful with new meme coins on: October 22, 2021, 01:20:23 AM
Yeah. I think beginners shouldn't invest in new meme coins. better learn first how meme coins work. or choose an existing meme coin. it's much better to avoid fake meme coins


What OP is trying to say is to be cautious and DYOR. It is a common practice in the crypto sphere whenever a project pumps then a lot of fake or copy projects come into existence. Not all are bad but some are meant only to scam new users. Therefore be cautious when investing in such projects.

Hi @OP if you are satisfied with the reply of @Princeofpoetry then please go ahead and lock the thread. If you do not lock it then members will start spamming your thread with the same reply, which might can land you in trouble as you have a newbie rank.

Honestly speaking I didn't even knew there is USDT on solana chain too before this post, since Eth fees reached heights almost everyone has been using TRC20 addresses for USDT transactions, with advent of Sol based USDT, transactions would become even quicker and cheaper. On the other hand Indian exchanges obviously don't receive much transactions in Tether that's why they aren't interested in this sort of features. Most of the users on Indian exchanges use it to just add money from bank and buy sell Cryptocurrencies, I doubt that even 10% would have used these send receive features.

That is the irony most Indian only need USDT for converting their INR. Only some P2P exchanges are accepting Trc20 based USDT. But for those who are trading on international exchange this feature is a big saviour. With Solana based USDT the only benefit will be quick transaction.
3669  Local / India / Has anyone noticed this on Binance? on: October 21, 2021, 04:33:14 AM
I was going through my Binance account and found that Solana USDT has been also listed under USDT deposit and withdrawal there. As we all know USDT is a stable coin and Tron USDT is one of the cheapest. I found out that you can deposit - 0.00000001 USDT into that wallet and the withdrawal fee is 1 USD.



Most Indian exchanges are still using the Ethereum network for USDT transactions. They need to upgrade to a faster and cheaper blockchain as soon as possible.

Every other board will vote against it, may be BCCI too lol so i don't think its going to happen ever. The best BCCI could do is organize India B and C foreign tours, which they already do with India A. In longer run i see cricket in India (T-20 or T-10) to shape like MLB (Baseball).

Foreign tours for India B and C are already going on. But what I am suggesting is different. For example, why can't we replace Oman team in the current T20 World Cup with a India B team? Oman team anyway doesn't have any Omani citizens. All the players are "imported" from countries like India. So instead of them, why can't we include another team from India? For the ICC, the revenues will skyrocket. I am 100% sure that no one in Oman supports the cricket team, as it doesn't contain native players. But if there is another team from India, then there can be huge growth in revenues for the TV broadcasters. India is like the goose that lays golden eggs for the ICC. They need to utilize them to the maximum.

How is that even possible? Oman has its own cricket board. They are importing players for now and in coming years they will have a lot of local talents. Do not forget there are many South-East Asians working in that country. Anyways those players are getting paid well and their performance is not that bad at all.

Sooner or later Afghanistan will be eliminated from icc n primary reason is there new government has differences with India and India will use icc to restrict them from playing international matches. India investment in Afghanistan has gone down to zero after New take over.
But in the end it will be Afghanistan players that will suffer. They have made huge progress in recent years n chances are that it will be down to zero. Only neutral icc can allow them to play cricket.

Apartheid era South Africa was kicked out from the ICC for discriminating against the racial minorities. Here, Taliban is doing much worse. They are literally exterminating the religious minorities. Given this, the ICC don't have any option other than to terminate them. The funding will stop as well. Because whatever funds being provided to the Afghan cricket board will end up with the Taliban terrorists and they will use those funds to spread terror in neighboring regions. No need to blame the BCCI here. Even the other boards such as the ECB and CA will do the same.

I think until and unless the world recognises the Taliban government they will face such discrimination. Taliban has not done anything well till now to convince the world that they have evolved from what they were in the 90s. You are right it can be a matter of months before ICC decides to remove the Afghan cricket board from the official list of cricket playing nation.

So india have won both the warm up matches and that too against good teams like England and Australia and good to see Ashwin taking 2 wickets and giving away only 8 runs. I think he would play in the first match against pakistan along with sir jadeja.
Today Pakistan Lost the match against South Africa with 6 wickets. Here it's very important that south Africa a good team but not India. So in WC I assume that Pakistan will do the best but India always the best team.


Things are quite different when the actual match is played. Although they might have lost to SA they can still perform exceptionally better when they are playing with India. Well played Indian team they seem to be in high form in the practice matches. On 24th they need to repeat the same performace.

The most common scam that I have seen and experienced is MLM based investment scams. They came into my knowledge for the first time when Bitcoin reached its first ATH in 2017. To date, it is the easiest and the fastest way for a scammer to scam anyone using the name of Bitcoin. The second most popular one is the fake airdrop scam that you might have seen or encountered on social media platforms. It is better to avoid such airdrops.

Yeah you are right. Some board might even put Unmukt Chand kind of example that how he had to leave India and join the ranks in the USA cricket.
~~

The problem here in India is that we have too much talent. There is only one cricket team to represent 1.4 billion people (on the other hand, the cricket team of Bermuda has played the world cup and they have a population of just 70,000). So obviously a lot of talented players like Umukt Chand have no option other than to immigrate to another country, if they want to play international cricket. The ICC has made a mockery of the eligibility rules. Anyone who has arrived in another country on a 6-month tourist visa can play for that country. Teams like Oman and UAE are fielding teams that are 100% comprised of Indian and Pakistani nationals. Given this, why can't the ICC add a couple of additional teams from India to the world cup? They can name them as India B or India C.

This is not India's problem there are too many talents present in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Srilanka too. They all have one team too and their leagues do not help those new talents. Indians still have IPL but you cannot accommodate all that talent in one single tournament. It is good that these players are getting the opportunity to play overseas and such things should be encouraged.
3676  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: October 20, 2021, 12:21:02 AM

Again Bangladesh start with a shaky start and lost two early wickets. They have scored on 25 runs in first five overs with 2 wickets lost. Remember this is a power play, so the runs are way too less. The team is not looking confident and i hope Oman would not do upset today.

Its look like the lost in the first match against Scotland and the pressure of winning this must win match, is too much on their nerves. If they play clam, they can easily beat Oman.
Bangladesh is struggling yet again and if they struggle to score a good total on the board then i think the unpredictable Oman could upset them. The Oman openers are really good and so is the reason they won the last match without loosing any wickets but i am not sure how their middle order nor the rest of the players would perform.

If Bangladesh looses this match then it will be difficult for them to get qualified.

Bangladesh lost all their wickets by 153 runs. They have lost 4 wickets in the last 2 overs. Apart from Naim and Shakib, no other batsman can play well. Mahmudullah scored 17 runs and Mushfiqur scored only 6 runs. Oman is not a strong team, moreover the performance of the Bangladeshi players is not improving even though the pitch condition is good enough. It is better that such a team cannot qualify for the World Cup.

After a lot of struggle eventually, they were able to win the match. If they are struggling so much with a weaker side then what will happen when they play with the big teams. Pathetic fielding and bowling by Bangladesh yesterday, simple midfield and catch drops have become regular with this team.
3677  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: October 19, 2021, 07:58:58 AM
After winning the toss today, Sri Lanka sent Namibia to bat. Namibia is a weak team, Sri Lanka does not want to make any mistake against them. They are not as stupid as the Bangladesh team. Batting first, Namibia managed to set a target of 97 runs. And in t20 format,at the same time it is a batting supportive pitch, so it is a very low target. Yet my idea is that the Sri Lankan players will play very consciously and win the match.

Namibia is a very weak team. It was predictable to win Sri Lanka with them. It is no surprise that Namibia lost all their wickets for just 96 runs. The Sri Lankan bowler is good enough. However, Sri Lanka lost their first 3 batsmen by just 26 runs. Since the target is very low, the batsmen should have batted with patience. I don't see any difference between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. Both inexperienced and weak.

Namibia is a weak team I agree with that but Srilanka was struggling in yesterday's match. With more experience players they could have given a good competition to Srilanka. Srilankan team is much weaker than Bangladesh team. They might lose s match from much weaker side in this tournament.
3678  Local / India / Re: India has the highest number of crypto users - over 10 crore on: October 19, 2021, 02:13:04 AM
I think they have calculated the figure based on the number of accounts Indian exchange have registered with them. A user can have multiple accounts with an exchange. KYC can be done using multiple IDs. For example: Fathers ID, Mothers ID, Brothers ID and ID of actual user. As long as the documents are correct Indian exchanges will clear KYC. The actual figure can be found out based on the data of bank accounts recieving funds from exchanges. 10 crore is a big number and  you cannot rely on information provided by the Indian media outlets.

That's quite possible that users have used different mobile phone and used their family member's documents to buy and store cryptos. We Indians are good at such tasks and we often do such things. But in a country of 70 crore internet users, the number of crypto holder looks quite huge and hard to digest.

But I sincerely hope that the government takes notice of this statistics and instead of depriving 10 crore cryptocurrency users, brings favorable legislation.

Still, I am pleased to see that India is slowly becoming a powerhouse because of the Indian community. Many projects are coming up and a lot of new jobs are being created in this field. So I feel there would be positive news coming out from the government in the future.

It is better to do your own research rather than asking for an advice in financial matters. As per my research it is another shit token which is pumping like other token. Not sure how long it will pump but if you are happy with the profit then sell majority stake and leave some for the future. Be careful these tokens do get dump suddenly.
