LOL.. I just checked the latest T20 team rankings from the ICC, and not surprisingly Australia has now dropped to the 6th position. In normal situations, we expect them not to drop out of the top-5. Bangladesh on the other hand is still struggling at the no.10 position, just ahead of Zimbabwe. For Australia, the ranking in both ODI and the test formats are much better than what they have in T20I (#3 in both cases), and this means that their issue is specific to the shorter format. Maybe, rather than blaming the players it is time to look in to the team composition and strategy?
Nothing to blame, but it is quite surprised to watch such a game from the Australian Squad. In the first match they've lost which happens to any big team. Now in the second match losing to the same team which is at the bottom rank show the lack of performance. In the first match the score is an easy target, and in the second match they should've took atleast 160 runs.

It is a five-match series and Australia has already lost 2, If they want to win this series they have to win all three matches. I do not think it would be possible looking at the way they have been playing lately. T20 is pretty much unpredictable but if looking at the way Australian teams played you do not need many predictions.

I did see a few adverts before this statement was made by google. The question is will they continue to support the crypto space or they will again implement the ban after some time? I assume they might not as most tech giants are accepting crypto adverts and Google does not want to be left out. The next step would be accepting cryptocurrency to pay for the advert.

If you are using Gmail then such mails will automatically go into the spam folder. I have been receiving them too but they always get recognised by Gmail as spam. Nothing new, it is an old trick the scammers use and astonishingly people to date do fall for such scams.

Nothing is free always remember and why would someone want to donate Bitcoin for free? always ask this question when you receive such emails.

Australia undoubtedly the best team in the cricket world where Bangladesh the last line team . But today Bangladesh beat Australia with 23 runs which already A headnews in the news channel. Australia would be backed soon , because they have strong batsman and bowlers , michel strack, Hazelwood and zampa already bowled better but only batsman played worse. They would have enough opportunities to feedback second match.

Australia was "undoubtedly the best team" a decade or so ago. That is not the case now. Remember how they performed when Smith and Warner got banned for a year? They don't have the depth in player pool, when compared to either India or England. Gone are the days when Glenn McGrath, Brett Lee and Shane Warne would gang up to destroy opposing teams. They don't have a good allrounder of the caliber of Shane Watson. And finally, although I agree that Steve Smith is perhaps the best test batsmen nowadays, his captaining skills are not as good as that of Michael Clarke.

If you compare Bangladesh with Australia then Australia is still far better. This was a one-off match and Bangladesh played far better than the Australian team. Wait for the next match and Australia will try to come back. I am sure Bangladesh knows it and they would be prepared for it.

Theres two main costs to gambling, money and time.   Set a budget for both or either and you will likely avoid drifting into some habit that is uncontrolled.   If not especially disciplined to do either limitation then keep your bets small and varied rather then big bet on outcomes hoping for a pay off.  The best betting is regular and planned over time, avoid drinking while betting or while drunk is also advisable as that would throw the plan out the window.    Best rule overall is just have a set budget, only bet upto that point and resolve to come back another day not every game will be won.  

Those are disciplined gamblers. Unfortunately, a lot are degenerate. They don't know when to stop because they are following their desires. I guess that's really hard if you are too deep in gambling. That is why, before you become one, make sure that you are still keeping track your gambling activities and self-control. Because once you break your habit, and got too deep in gambling, that's when you will have more troubles and getting out would be a challenge.

When you start winning in a roll you will forget discipline and on the next roll, you lose all. There is only one way and that is to decide how much money you want to invest in gambling? Set a benchmark and try to stick with it. I know it is hard but that is all you can do. The problem is always the temptation of winning and greed.

Be very careful when you recieve a free token in your wallet. I won't say all airdrops are scams but most of them are. In my opinion, it is better to research these tokens before initiating any transaction. Such airdrops are quite frequent on the Tron blockchain. Recently, Tron has been notifying users when they check that these tokens are scams on the tronlink wallet. I am not sure whether Ethereum does the same.

England tour of Bangladesh has been postponed indefinitely, but they have scheduled to play three ODIs against Bangladesh as part of the ICC ODI Super League. By postponing the tour, English players can compete in the IPL tournament when it resumes on September 19. The English players will have the opportunity to practice their skills in this franchise tournament instead of the international tournament.
What is the reason for the tour to be postponed, is this the pandemic or any other reason to call off the tour. The 100 is going on and they are getting more exposure and they might be thinking that the IPL will be giving them the required practice before the World Cup, not sure what their schedule is but they need to play matches as a team before going into the World Cup if they want to be competitive.

I assume it is due to the pandemic as cases are increasing in Bangladesh too. IPL has been shifted from India to UAE where the cases are very few. Australia and England are cancelling matches because of the Pandemic issue in south asian countries. IPL will also help English players to prepare for the upcoming T20 world cup.

The situation is highly unpredictable nothing is stable for this virus. Those countries that were reporting a decline in cases have again started reporting an increase.  The worst is that players are also not cooperating with the authorities. If these tournament does happen in the coming months then ICC, as well as BCCI both, have to be very strict with Bio bubble.

If they were strict with the bio-bubble, then this situation would have never happened in the first place. The BCCI lacks a spine to reign in on their players. I thought that they would be more careful, after they suffered huge losses due to the postponement of the IPL. But I was wrong. The same mistake is being repeated. The IPL is set to be resumed next month, and I am sure that once again we are going to witness a string of bio-bubble breaches. The same will happen with the T20 world cup as well. The players behave as they wish and there is no one to control them.

BCCI has to learn from its past mistakes unfortunately, they are not. What kind of professionalism do these players have who have got infected due to the virus. They are not playing charity match but an International match where they are representing their country. I am not sure about T20 because ICC will be handing it but, I am pretty sure more such cases will happen during the IPL.

I was bit surprised to see that there was no mention of 'community managers', projects keep coming everyday and they all need CMs in their channels.

Yes, they do get popping up but most of them are either looking for experienced managers and if not then those are scammers posting for scam job offers. It is advised to sell your skills on that board and hence if you think you have specific skills then go ahead and create a topic on that board.

I bought my first bitcoin on binance, I intend to keep it there because I can easily convert my Bitcoin to usdt when the price of bitcoin goes up. I now know it is not safe to store Bitcoins in an exchange because they can quickly and easily change their t & c anytime. This is the problem. Now I want to transfer my bitcoins to electrum wallet but I don't think they allow swapping of bitcoin to usdt.  Is there a trustworthy wallet that can do this?

The atomic wallet has a built-in Atomic swap, which comes under the Exchange tab. It is a non-custodial wallet and comes for both desktop and mobile. Through Atomic swap, you can convert your Bitcoin to USDT instantly. The minimum amount for exchanging Bitcoin is BTC0.0002625. I am using the desktop version of it for more than a year now and I have not faced any issues. To download the wallet please visit atomicwallet.io

Damn, Ben Stokes is having mental breakdown, was wondering why he is not playing and i though he was injured or something but this is serious and glad he came out and taking it seriously and seeking help which is really great about him.

A mental breakdown, why? what happened? is it because of COVID19 or something else! I have never thought a mental breakdown can happen to a player like him. To be precise, I have never heard or read such mental issues with successful players. I hope he recovers soon and comes back to active cricket.

Bold move by Sri lankan board to ban players for 2 years to breach the bio bubble, i think it is excessive, how about BCCI and what they are going to do with the players that breached the bubble.

That is not harsh but a good decision in my opinion. Players should understand people are dying because of this disease and with the new variant the mortality rates are much higher. BCCI will not do anything they are a bunch of mindless retards who think only about money and believe everything is okay. I am also eagerly waiting for their response.

T-20 WC schedule is out for real?

Nope. I checked the official site of the ICC and ESPN Cricinfo. The schedule is not out yet. "Unofficial" schedules have been circulating in various websites for some weeks now, but they seems to be fake. I don't know why the ICC is delaying it. At least they could release the schedule for the preliminary phase, where the associate nations are competing. The teams need to plan for their opponents, and it is not possible unless they get the complete schedule. It can create issues for the TV broadcasters as well, as they need to schedule their other programs.
The official information on the schedule isn't released yet. Recently the schedule for the IPL T20 is released. The postponed league is getting continued by 19th September. CSK is playing against Mumbai Indians. Maybe the schedule for getting delayed for the completion of the IPL league.

BCCI can change the schedule of IPL at any time, we have seen a lot of changes in the last few years. But the schedule of bilateral series and franchise leagues in many countries depends on the T20 World Cup. Therefore, considering all the circumstances, the ICC will announce the schedule of the next T20 World Cup.

Yes, they can change the schedule for IPL without any issue but is it financially beneficial for BCCI and the franchises. I do not think so they have already changed a venue and again changing will be a problem for them. I am not sure what made BCCI decide in the first instance that they can have IPL in India. Bilateral series can be cancelled but big events cannot.

Congratulation and Welcome to BTT.

Your website looks amazing I am sure creating this website took a lot of time. Everything is so smooth I did check it on mobile and it is compatible. It is simple to understand and that is your USP. I would still suggest that you add more info about the listed website. I was able to recognise most of them but those which I was not aware of did not have much info. I would also like to know what made you decide the ranking as is it easy to deposit, easy to withdraw or good customer support.

Lol i wasn't expecting this kind of shameful performance from our batters. Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devdutt Padikkal and Nitish Rana are new guys so i wouldn't blame them much, they deserve more chances and they will learn as they gain more experience but Samson is the biggest disappointment in this series. He's considered T-20 specialist but the way he's performing i don't think selectors are going to pick him up next time, now his fans should sit tight and keep their mouth shut for good.

Hopefully Samson's fans would behave from now on, given his pathetic performance in the series. He doesn't have the temperament or maturity to play in international matches and is best suited for franchise leagues. I wouldn't blame the others, like Gaikwad, Devdutt and Nitish. Gaikwad did well relatively, although he failed to convert his good starts to big scores. DDP did well in his first match, but struggled in the second. Overall, for the Indian fans I don't think that there is any reason to worry. India showed that even their 4th or 5th preference team can compete at international level.
Exactly! Would have been great if we won the T-20 series as well but its okay, in T-20 series there is no positives tho except young bowling department and they tried their best. Good to see Kuldeep bagging some wickets as well. Every batter who went into isolation because of Krunal must be cursing him all day night Grin


----------------
T-20 WC schedule is out for real?

Any news what will now happen to Prithvi and Suryakumar's England tour. I remember they both were supposed to leave for England after this series. Now as they are in isolation will they be allowed to leave or they will be replaced. If they are replaced then seriously they will be cursing Krunal.
3777  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: July 30, 2021, 10:59:49 AM
Krunal will be available for matches only after testing negative, while the players who were in close contact with him are in room isolation. Today we have the third and final T20I match of the series, and it will be very difficult for the Indians to prevent series win by Sri Lanka (right now the series is tied at 1-1). I don't really care about the outcome, as in T20 there is no league structure unlike the case with ODI. I am getting worried about the upcoming tournaments - IPL and T20 World Cup. If the COVID situation remains like this, then these tournaments will be called off. 

The situation is highly unpredictable nothing is stable for this virus. Those countries that were reporting a decline in cases have again started reporting an increase.  The worst is that players are also not cooperating with the authorities. If these tournament does happen in the coming months then ICC, as well as BCCI both, have to be very strict with Bio bubble.

Pakistan will play the 2nd T20 today against West Indies. The first T20 was washed out because of the rain but i believe that Pakistan was in a strong position in that match.  West Indies only scored 85 runs which were never going to be enough when the total overs are limited to just nine only.

Yes, WI were down 5 wickets and scored  85 runs in 9 overs when the match got cancelled. It would have been interesting to watch this match if the rain had not disrupted it. Today's match will be interesting to watch, if Pakistan can perform the same way then it would be interesting.

Never put your main phone number on an online site. I don't know how offer on your country, In here my country, everyone can have many phone number (max 3 number) that can be used for dummy. I mean use a dummy number if that very important thing to write it down, If so have called you don't need to bring it up.


Unfortunately, there have been a lot of instances in the past where the phone numbers were leaked from known companies databases. Hence it is advised to always have two numbers. One should not be shared with anyone and should be only used for specific things. The other one can be used for anything. Also, it would be safe not to share any of your phone numbers on public platforms. There are many websites that provide temp numbers that can be used in such situation

Your project does not looks like a new one on the block. There have been a few which have in the past and one of them was LBRY. They were able to gain a lot of users when Youtube started banning crypto content creators but, for me, they did not succeed. Their userbase started depleting as soon as Youtube started to again accept crypto influencers. I would recommend your team to think differently and improvise, if not you will again become a failed project.
