1000th ODI - India

Today India is playing against West Indies on its first ODI of the series. Through this India becomes the first country to play 1000 ODI matches in international cricket. In the year 1971 ODI cricket was introduced. In the very first match England played against Australia, the match was won by Australia. In the year 1974 India played its very first ODI cricket and lost to England. Till date India has played 999 ODI cricket matches. The results are furnished below.


Wow, thank you so much for sharing this information. My knowledge about cricket has gone reasonably up since I started posting here. Good luck for team India for there 1000 ODI encounter. India has recently lost ODI series against SA while WI Lost to Ireland. India IMO has edge over WI.

James Rew and James Sales have helped the team back on the track to some extent and now England have reached a score of 185 runs losing 9 wickets. Compared to the beginning of the innings, at the end England have managed to score good runs. This time the final is in the favour of India, but we can't come to a conclusion on this. India will try to score in a slow and steady manner as it doesn't have pressure on the required run rate.

Full credit to both James for rescuing England team in this final. At one point it seems like England will be bowled out before reaching 100. They both have given England some hope though I still believe that if India don't do any blunder this match belongs to them .

90% of the revenue is generated from India. This is the reason why BCCI hands are high on ICC. Maybe that's the reason why there is flaws with the distribution. As of now the teams now in need were Afghanistan, Zimbabwe and Ireland. This could change when the teams push themselves high in the big tournaments. Also, it can also be considered a way to keep those teams down.

Ireland is subsidiary of UK, so I don't think they are short in funds. Afghanistan is surely in dire need of funds. India generate major funds for icc but icc must take care of small boards also. If countries continue to exit from cricket world then on whom big 3 will rule ?

India will surely win this final. England are struggling at 61 for 6 wickets down. I don't think they will be able to reach even 100 runs and it will be an easy target for the Indian batsmen. 
Raj Bawa took 4 wickets in 6 overs and is the main highlight in the Indian bowling attack.

They were 71-7 but recovered well, thank to partnership of both James England are 184-7 in 43 overs. Though India still looks favorite here. If England can pose a target of 230+ then it will be interesting match. Bawa and Ravi get rid of top order batsman very early less James Rew and this is hurting india badly.

Well... I disagree with you on Jagmohan Dalmiya. He never got a chance to play international cricket (although he represented one of the most famous clubs in the Kolkata local competition). Still, when he was the president of the ICC he undertook major measures to boost the popularity of cricket in associate nations. And he was the one who first proposed to include cricket in Olympics. But his downfall started in 2004, when UPA won the elections in India. Srinivasan-Pawar combination captured power and they reversed the policy to popularize cricket. The mafia was in power for one decade and they pushed back the sport by at least 2-3 decades. The damage they did will never be undone.

I was of the view that dalmiya never played international cricket still he proved to be a good manager of BCCI. There is no need for a cricketer to be head of the board, Sachin is extraordinary cricketer still he can be a poor head of BCCi ( just my thought). I am not saying anything against Dalmiya his services will always be remembered.

And we also can see that even the cricket board are being controlled by non-cricketers or businessmen, right? That's where the actual problem lies.

Have a look at the Bangladesh cricket board for example. Has The President of the Bangladesh cricket board ever played cricket? Like ever?
All I have seen him play is probably blackjack in casinos.  Grin
But, he is the head of the Bangladesh cricket board. Sometimes it actually amazes me that this team is still doing reasonably well.

Anyway, unless people can get out of the habit of chasing money the game is not going to reach people at its best and people are obviously not going to be interested.

Head of board slot is purely for management and you don't need to be a cricketer to occupy that slot. The problem with Bangladesh cricket is something else they failed to prove that they have adequate talent in the country which is playing test for over two decades. There were noticeable names like jagmohan dalmiya they never played cricket.

SLC does 100 times better job than BCCI in this regard. Remember Nidahas Trophy final overs? SLC posted this on their YT channel and its most watched video for any sports.

You cant ignore the power of social media steaming channels they open new dimensions of earnings for small businesses. IPL is other story but small leagues like BPL, PSL can attract people globally towards them. Streaming your league freely on YouTube defiantly makes you a bit more popular.

No one argues that they are ordinary people, but if a woman has a man's body, then she has an advantage over those women who have a female body. You will not dispute the fact that men on average are significantly superior to women in physical strength? It is for this reason that women have their own separate competitions, and now because of the politics that mixes transgenders with women, women are suffering because it is mostly transgenders who win prizes because of their physical superiority.

I don't know the details but surely the Olympics organisers must be aware of this fact too. There must be some SOP adopted on inclusion of transgenders in the game. They are neglected community of our society and we must welcome there inclusion. Such discussions will only discourage them.

Afghanistan could be in better situation in next few months because many countries already in talk with them, and they are already announces few things which are good but few countries those have loses after Taliban victory still feeling they can capture again this all which is just daydreaming because now USA is also realized they have made some mistakes in past and now time for settling things in positive way so most chances we will have some positive improvement in this country in next few months and many countries will accept this current set up which could be good for youths and many other communities because surely this could be big change and their cricket team will also able to have matches with all teams even they will mostly play these matches at the UAE or Qatar.

There are very rear chances of international cricket in AFGHANISTAN in decade or two. Afghanistan will continue to play its home series in other counties. Majority of there youngsters play cricket in Pakistan before getting selected in national side. Let's hope peace prevails in Afghanistan and we see quality cricket there.

Now, all eyes on Australia if they arrived and this settle peacefully then surely there could be big change and many other teams also feel OK for touring Pakistan without any concern.

Cricket Australia clear men's team tour of Pakistan in March

On Thursday, Test captain Pat Cummins confirmed most players were comfortable with the series going ahead


So far things in right directions for CA tour to Pakistan. Right now Aus players are also taking part in PSL which is indication that CA has no objection in sending its players to Pakistan.

So, not only my question is somewhat ignored --you're online today and could post an ann after my post questioning several things-- your whitepaper is also somewhat removed from your site, and now the thread begin piling up with some suspicious bumping account. i think we can see where this project will ends up to.


Your point is valid. In todays crypto world you cant ignore the social media, as they are the prime part of your contact with clients. OP should have answer your questions to remove your concerns as well as people who are reading this. Lets wait for a while, may be the team is in its very initial days of launch.

Two best teams india and england reached the finals and right now i cannot guess who will be the winner. The team who played better on the final day will be the winner of this year's U19 world cup.
With a dominant performance against Australia, India reached the finals. This shows how well organized and strong their infrastructure is. As a result, India became the first U19CWC team to qualify for four consecutive finals.  The youngster did an amazing job and deserve to reach the finals. Indian fans are looking forward to their 5th championship win. If they succeed, it will boost the morale of the senior team as well.

Congrats to Indian team for reaching yet another semifinal. Honestly I wanna see Afghanistan in the finals just because they have made enormous progress in few years. There senior team has already performed well in ICC tournaments and if things went well in there country then they will definitely be one of strongest cricketing side.

Good to see a thread for BPL. OP can you share sites that are sharing odds for BPL? After IPL, PSL and BPL are major leagues. COMILLA VICTORIANS today beat chittagong quite easily, as they chased a target of 138 in 16.3 overs. The cricket community must pay attention to other leagues like BPL.
554  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: February 03, 2022, 03:48:28 PM

One of the biggest revenue source for IPL is the television right. If PSL wants to be succesful then they should stop telecasting those matches on free platforms. They should also work on piracy. Star india has been very successful in stopping piracy. It is practically impossible to watch IPL on any free platforms now. A few years back you would have easily watched those IPL matches on most of the free platform.

You cant compare IPL with anyother league. IPL broadcasting rights were sold for billion of dollars while only few million dollars were earned by selling PSL rights. PCB want to reach masses that's why they don't wanna ban airing PSL on free platforms.
555  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: February 03, 2022, 03:44:22 PM

If there are very few teams playing cricket, then the ICC is also responsible for that. They killed cricket in associate nations when Srinivasan-Pawar cabal was in power. Everyone knows what happened to teams such as Kenya and Canada. After showing a lot of promise, cricket died out all of a sudden in these countries due to lack of support from the ICC. And what happened in Zimbabwe also needs to be blamed on the ICC. They are still supporting the corrupt cricket board members, despite receiving proof that the funds are being stolen.

Kenya was once integral part of icc tournaments but its no where to be seen and very soon Zim will also vanish from international scenes (I hope this wont be true). Icc must distribute funds based on need not on how mighty a board is. Afghanistan should get good funding against Aus or India as it has limited resources.

Sad news. I have nothing against trans athletes (and generally against trans people), but I think that women with a male body have an advantage over women with a female body. This is supported by the statistics and by the fact that there are many successful trans women, but I have not heard of any of the successful trans men. Perhaps the ideal solution would be to allocate a separate category for transathletes.

They are just ordinary people like us and have same strength like we have. Let them come in Olympics and with time when things get matured, may be we see some policies for them. Right now they are in phase of inclusion in Olympics. I am sure Olympics committee have some policies regarding there inclusion. 
557  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Cricket match prediction discussions on: January 31, 2022, 05:02:54 PM
Even it is no of mine business but still bringing Pakistani players in all cases is not good because there were some bad time when few players involved into this, and they have their punishment just like we have few players in other countries even into India but still talking all this is completely none sense because they have enough money from their leagues and other international leagues and fixtures, so they don't need these things better stop this crap and talk into better way is good for all members here in this community because we already have very small community and don't try to create bad manners and things with this all.

If Brendan Taylor trap into this, surely it's his own mistake and many others need to learn from this and never have any contact or relationship like this.

Match fixing is still going on, only small board pays the price. No one can question big boards, its a reality. Players from all countries do fixing but only few are caught. Bookies are part of cricket and they will remain integral part of cricket  in days to come. Yes Brendan Taylor has done a mistake and that's why he is facing the music, its sad to see such ending of this big player

Currently, we have some good number of cricketing events around so just because of this we have very few peoples watching this PSL and no one talking about this even I just check now this year some good number of channels and apps are showing this live which is good but still need some better marketing and exposure which is possible by time to have some better updates and information about this event right now I have not watched any match of this season due to my schedule but reading some good updates about few matches and today just few hours ago Lahore beat Karachi in very interesting match with Fakhar Zaman done maiden century of this season and now Karachi is at bottom with 3 loses out of 3 matches and Multan is leading table under Mohammad Rizwan by 2 wins out of 2 matches.

PCB is not rich board thats why they are not spending much on marketing but still its good for them that PSL continuous to move on for 7th consecutive year. Meanwhile there is an intersting match going on b/w Multan sultan and Lahore Qalandars. MS have scored 174 runs and Lahore Qalandars are struggling to chase this target.

If the political situation is stable then Afghanistan will produce great talents if not these players will move to other countries to earn their living, i have played with and against many players from Afghanistan in the UAE playing for clubs and some of the players i came across have the potential to play for the national side.

The pitch is really slow for batting and the bowlers will determine the champions or a special batsman who could tackle the pitch.

As far as cricket is concerned, if you have talent then it doesn't matter whether your upper tier moves to some other country or not. The talent is there to fill the gap. Many of Afghanistan players like Nabi used to play in club cricket in Pakistan before migrating back to there native town. Good news is that new regime is supporting the afghan cricket team.

Uh, so let me understand this, a bomb blast that happens in Pakistan and Pakistan is really unsafe for any touring team, and amazing happens in New Zealand, in a mosque, on Friday, at the time when people goes to pray, and Bangladesh cricket team were supposed to go there, most probably would have been killed as well if they reached there in time, so it is not an issue at all, right??

I don't mean that what happened in Pakistan is ok or under the circumstances, this should happen, obviously what happened in Pakistan was very bad and obviously, Pakistan has security issues, but bro, come on why different for NZ...

Double standards I say. What happens in NZ is nothing to worry its still safe to play while a less serious attack on SL team make Pakistan totally unfit for international cricket. White people have an upper edge over others even in 21st century. I am very much sure even if BAN team was killed in NZ even then people will be saying NZ is safe for cricket.
