I think they have already tested all the players inside the bubble and that's how they figured out that a couple of players have COVID. They are taking precautions but honestly, still nobody knows how COVID spreads. There are speculations that it is air borne and not just through cough droplets. Especially since many of the COVID carriers are asymptomatic. It could be through surfaces as well..and since there has to be contact with the outer world outside the bubble for ration like grocery items as well as other necessary products. It could be from literally any source. I'm sure they do sanitize anything that comes into the bio bubble but it is interesting how they could contract COVID.

They have already found out how the players tested positive. Varun Chakravarthy left the bubble through the green channel a few days back, and re-entered after getting infected. The official explanation is that he visited a hospital for a shoulder scan and that is how he got infected. But I am not ready to believe this story. Sandeep Warrier was infected inside the bubble, after coming in to contact with Chakravarthy. So in case Warrier can get infected, then I suspect that many more players might have got the virus. The double-mutant strain of the virus gives negative results sometimes.
As of now KKR players were asked to bo in the isolation for 7 days in that time they have three matches which will be postponed and CSK team members along with their bowling coach also tested positive so the entire CSK team is at risk now so they will conduct multiple tests to confirm is there any covid spread between the players but I don't see anywhere the league will be postponed but it may happen if bio bubble burst or more franchises.

Even though the rise is too huge its still not a logical thing which is going to help the workers so government should concentrate on bringing more investment opportunities and employment opportunities then simply rising the values, again the government raised it with a single sign but who is going to pay the money the fellow citizen not the government so there should be a change should occur if they want to overcome this crisis.

Pretty boring stuff from the Sunrisers. Bowlers, batters everyone disappointing their fan base. I have no hope left for them in this season, they tried everything including sacking their captain which was wrong move from the start anyway. 
But why Warner didn't played in this game, I saw that he will contribute to the team even though there is change in captaincy but firing him from the playing XI is a big blow for them only because is the one of the destructive and consistent T20 opener and also in IPL, he got the many record under his cap but one bad season then you will be fired is really sucks.



And what happened to KL Rahul, I don't know anything about it but Mayank is captaining PBKS today against DC!
64  Economy / Economics / Re: EFFECTIVE INVESTING STRATEGIES on: May 01, 2021, 07:43:23 PM
It seems like you are talking about business strategies not the investors strategies, in reality investors are not going to take any effort to make their investment profitable but their job is to find the growing company which has potential and at any time they can exit from the company if it is in the downtrend.

If you know it is not an investment strategy, then what investment strategies do you know to be implemented?
for me personally it is still workable. it's just that you need to be clever at duplicating theory into practice by trying a combination of different strategies. all strategies for both doing business and investing in the core of the goal remain the same, namely taking profit.
So where do you see the discrepancies you see?
They are entirely different or atleast in my opinion, investors are not going to develop a company so they can make profits unless they are whales and celebrities, for a common man its always advisable to chose the company which is in growing phase not the complete start ups since we are talking about investment.

Oh boy what a game !! Power hitting all through out the game, it was mammoth total and no one was expecting Mumbai to chase down this total successfully after 3 quick wickets but damn Pollard stole the victory from the CSK. Super Saturday indeed !!


Pollard is being really a nightmare for CSK for more than a decade now and still he wins the matches against them, its a complete entertainer at the end because the match went till the last ball, I am worried when faf dropped that pollard's catch which can win the match for CSK. Anyway CSK is still at the first position at the end of half of the tournament but I expect the change in those order in the coming days due to the change of venues.

You can certainly quote today's match as one of the biggest. Top 2 teams of IPL will be playing against each other. I am very excited, can't decide which team will win today.
MI won the toss and elected to bowl first, which may give great advantage for them because CSK won most games while chasing while CSK made no changes in their playing XI obviously. MI made 2 interesting changes Neesham and Kulkarni comes in the place of coulter Nile and Yadav.

Really excited to watch the match is going to begin in the next few minutes.
67  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 01, 2021, 12:54:47 PM
RCB back to their form? I mean their poor form! Grin

LOL.. I just hope that this defeat doesn't start a new trend for them. The captaincy was very poor. Harshal Patel had proved very expensive during the end overs in the previous matches and still Kohli asked him to bowl two out of the last three overs. And he conceded an eye-watering 40 runs from those two overs. And this was despite Kyle Jamieson having one over left. Even Mohammed Siraj bowled only 3 overs, and had one over left. I don't know what was going on in Kohli's mind at this point. Else Punjab Kings would have got restricted to somewhere around 150.
I don't know why Kohli sent Harshal Patel to bowl even though Mohammad Siraj and Kyle Jamieson had 2 overs left. This was the biggest wrong decision of the match and this is why they lost. Moreover, Virat Kohli has batted very slow in the powerplay. We expect more responsible batting towards him. It is difficult to win a match if you go down to bat for 180 runs and bat so slowly.
Because harshal patel took 7 wickets in the death overs while giving only four runs in the first 5 matches that is why he is been considered as death bowler but Jadeja changed everything later then followed.

Biggest match of the season coming up MI vs CSK!

How many of you betting on the MI since they are defending champions and the only team holds the winning percentage of 60% with CSK which is the highest of any other teams in the whole IPL.

Based on what I noticed this bull run, the majority of the coins that have a good pump this season are those that are listed in Binance, so I come to the conclusion that we should only invest in coins that are listed in this exchange for us to have a chance to maximize our profit.

What's your take on this, am I right or wrong?

Share your opinion.
Even shitcoin can give us profits but only in short term so if you are looking to make some profits and really wanted to take such risk then go and find a random new coin listed on binance but I will never do any day. Each investors has different strategies and mine based on the fundamental analysis not due to some hype around the coin just because it is getting listed on reputed exchange.

Hot wallets reduce the hack amount, or else the complete money on the exchange will have vanished from their wallet if they are not going to use cold storage.Scammers and hackers will never stop they always going to try to steal money from people in someway if it is possible so its the exchange responsible to keep their security system update and precaution measures if anything goes wrong can save customers from complete losses.

Aaj punjabiyo ne banglore walo ki band baja di sahi wali  Grin. And here we were thinking that they could bend the knee against the RCB lol. 3 prize wickets for Harpreet!!
The match entirely turned by the eleventh over with the wicket fall of Virat Kohli and Maxwell. Losing the wicket of AB de Villiers Royal Challengers were out of the winning move. However the end players contributed good. If the scoring of Punjab Kings during the last five overs were restricted, the match could've got a result in a close call.
RCB back to their form? I mean their poor form! Grin

One bowler and one over the match completely turned towards the side of Punjab, hope RCB will change their fortune into the winning moments because they stated exceptionally well with five straight wins followed by poor loss.
71  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: April 30, 2021, 03:47:27 PM
Today we have Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bangalore. If RCB wins today's match, then they will be on top of the points table. Punjab Kings are inconsistent despite the presence of some of the T20 heavyweights. I don't have much hope for them in this season. I expect today's match to be clearly one-sided, with RCB winning comfortably. If RCB bats first, expect a score in excess of 200. All the RCB batsmen are in terrific form, and combined with the pathetic performance of the Punjab Kings bowlers so far we can expect a record total (in case RCB bats first).  
They are onto something today and already got a excellent start. Chris Gayle is looking dangerous and if he gets going like this then 180+ score is easy peasy for the Punjab. Should be cracker run chase considering RCB batting line up.

-------------
Edit
Duh Punjab

Pooran only made 20+ out of 7 matches which is what hurting the PBKS hurting too much, I hope they will find someone better to fill that slot or try him to lower down the order for death overs because he is not capable of taking responsible innings in the middle overs when its much needed. Finally PBKS good comeback at the last 3 overs and made a decent total of 179 which can be a fighting total for sure. Once again the purple cap holder giving away to much runs in his last over but this time KL Rahul. Cheesy

So I am in a situation where I have found a potential project I can invest in for the long term and gain huge profits.
At the same time the current market seems the correction is over and another bull run might start.

I am having an urge to invest all that I can in the potential project I like but it is also a good time to diversify the portfolio and trade some nice coins to gain short term profits.
What would you guys do if you were in such a situation ?

If you are really confident that the project you are going to invest in will let you make huge profits then I will refer to just invest in it, don't take extra risk for short term gains especially if you are a long term investor.

Or you can also put that 25% amount into short-term allocation since you can afford such amount so just play with it to make short-term gains while the 75% should be invested on the project you wanted to invest in, diversifying investment mainly needs to diversify your capital amount too.

For a normal user who is not going to have in millions can make use of the electrum wallet which is very convenient for long term storage as well as day to day transactions but keeping the private key in a secure place is the key no matter what kind of wallet you are using.

I moved to electrum for bitcoin storage for years now where I am not having any issues yet but I am not having any mod apps in my smartphone and also I am always aware of malicious links and trojans.

2FA is literally not going to save you from hacks as long as the scammer managed to get your private keys, it just a useful feature on exchanges but not really useful on a wallet.
74  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Collapse of cryptocoin exchange in Turkey | VeBitcoin on: April 29, 2021, 06:51:43 PM
It's the second cryptocurrency in Turkey that's collapsing, after facing financial strains, according to a brief statement made on their website. Earlier this month, Turkey's central bank has moved into banning the use of digital assets for payments, while Turkish authorities have blocked Vebitcoin's bank accounts and detained four people.

Some Turks have switched to using cryptocurrencies to protect their savings from soaring inflation and the devaluation of their currency, the Turkish Lira. At the same time, the whole "Bitcoin is a bubble story" is on the rise again.

What are your thoughts about this incident, it's the second exchange so far that has shut down, what if other countries follow such measures too?


Source: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/04/26/turkish-bitcoin-exchange-vebitcoin-collapses-amid-crypto-crackdown.html
Even if a central banks wants to ban the crypto assets, they should provide certain time period for their people to convert their assets into fiat or any form of legalized assets, if it happens all of a sudden then it has some other intention like they don't want the new people to get rich with their cryptos investments, etc.

Eoin Morgan's captaincy for the IPL tournament needs some special treatment to get back the momentum like how he did for England's short format games.

I guess I will not be surprised if I will be seeing KKR is the first team to disqualify for play-offs of 2021 IPL; I am sorry, they are playing like that.
The problem with Kolkata Knight Riders is their team management who does not know how to pick their perfect team and the captaincy of Eoin Morgan is a big failure. In today's game he kept Pat Cummins till the end overs and if he was bowling from the start he would have given the breakthrough  and the batting line up is a mess and their openers Nitish Rana and Shubman Gill are playing at a really low strike rate which is not helping them either.

Then why they have been asked to play again and again when its clear that they are not giving the start for the team, at least shuffling the positions may change something but KKR doesn't want to do anything, all they are doing is just dragging their innings and the season as well. Eoin Morgan was one of the best current active captain but he is not doing well in IPL, does he have any hindrance from the franchise side to apply his tactics?
76  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: April 29, 2021, 04:01:42 PM
Mumbai Indians have such habit, they perform very bad in the first half of their tournament then they will go to the top 4 with do or die situations and won the trophies as well so its not surprising for me about MI performances.

DC vs KKR, at the end of first innings KKR scored only 154 which is below par in my opinion so they need to bow extraordinary to win this match while DC started with furious approach of 25 runs at the end of the first over. Shocked  6 fours from prithvi shaw along with one wide.

CSK back to the top of the table again with far better run rate who is also having the same 10 points now. This is the vintage CSK team and I watched the entire match which is completely amazed me. Warner the struggling man needs to think about finding the right combination inside their team because only 4 overseas players are performing for SRH and all the others were on the losing cause especially their middle order is very weak. Saha is on the bench for them who can be included in the middle order for better stability who player really some great innings for veruous franchise.

Wriddhiman Saha is not a specialist batsman. Since Jonny Bairstow is a better batsman, he fills that slot. You are right regarding the overseas players of SRH. All of them are in great form. But the issue is with the local players, especially the bowlers. None of the bowlers are able to provide any support for Rashid Khan. That's why the team management is trying different combinations. But right now, none of these bowling combinations are working for them.
No need to replace Saha with Bairstow, there are lot of weak links in the middle order.

https://www.cricbuzz.com/profiles/1465/wriddhiman-saha He is not having huge average but apart from that he player over 120 matches with good strike rate of 130 which is much needed for them now especially his innings. Don't forget he even have a century in his IPL stats.

CSK now again cruising towards their win to be honest, SRH didn't even took a single wicket while CSK just needs 72 from 54 balls.

Chennai Super Kings are now at second position in the points table, which is an amazing turnaround when compared to their situation during IPL 2020. Now they have 8 points from 5 matches. The Delhi Capitals also have 8 points, but they have played one additional match. For CSK, the next match is going to be against the Mumbai Indians. It is going to be a tough match, but given their momentum, they should be able to perform well. SRH remains at the bottom of the table with just two points. Apart from Rashid Khan, their bowlers have failed. And Natarajan's absence is not helping things either.

Rishabh Pant has batted exceptionally well so far in this tournament. But unfortunately, his captaincy is not up to the mark..

As a team, DC is much strong. They have batsmen like Rahane, Shikhar Dhawan, Hetmayre in their squad, their bowlers are good enough. But as a captain, I didn’t find Rishab Pant experienced enough. And the defeat in yesterday's match is living proof of that. Experienced bowlers must be used in the 18th, 19th, and 20th overs. I think it would have been better if Shikhar Dhawan was the captain

Rahane is not really T20 material and although Hetmeyer produced a really good performance in the last match, he is not in his best form. IMO, Delhi Capitals are struggling due to the absence of Shreyas Iyer. They are still unable to fill the vacuum created due to his absence. Steven Smith is now batting at no.3 for Delhi Capitals, and he is OK as far as performance is concerned, but his strike rate is a bit lower than what is optimal. 
DC still manages to stay in a good position at the points table so there is no pressure on them so I don't think there will be any changes in their team unless someone got injured.

No one watching today's match?

CSK now again cruising towards their win to be honest, SRH didn't even took a single wicket while CSK just needs 72 from 54 balls.
