India vs South Africa, 37th Match

Toss Win: India
Team Win: India
Best Batsman: KL Rahul
Best Bowler: Shami

This is the contest between two strongest and inform teams for the top spot of the table, as of now I am watching the pitch reports unfortunately there is chance for rain now hope it won't interrupt the match today. Looking good to see the Birthday boy, Virat Kohli.

Different perspective but I don't think no one want to be rested now because they are now in the glorious form so all of them just wants to continue their good winning combination. Don't forget this match is also important to secure the top spot of the table so if we end up there then we might get to play with slightly weaker team at the semi final.

The man to watch out for today is Virat and today is his 35th Birthday, so let's wish all our blessings on him and hope he will match the record today.

Don't write AFG, they still have two game while NZ and PAK has only one game left so who knows if AFG win both games then they can surpass both of them and take a spot at top 4.

NZ playing against SL on Nov 9

PAK playing against ENG on Nov 11

So we have to wait until that to find who is going to take that 4th spot. As I said AFG also got a chance too if they can manage to pull some miracles.

That is terrible news

He is current world's best all-rounder in ODI format and even though team India is performing really well without his presence it can be a problem in knockout games because Indian batting unit has got long tail and if they want to replace him with Ashwin who can give us the batting depth then who is it going to be, cause 3 pacers- 2 spinners formula worked well for us.

As I said above who will be left out if R.Ashwin come in. They have to compromise kuldeep Yadav or Siraj if they really need to deepen the batting, but I don't think India will take that risk.

I expected that but Pakistan batting was so turned on today and depleted KZ bowling unit can't control the furious Fakhar and the last over before the rain interruption was the key. Unlucky day for NZ but its good for the tournament cause now the spots are still open and theoretically still 7 teams are fighting for it.

On another match, ENG is playing the most defensive and already the required rate is over 6.5 but the players can change that in few overs so all they are focusing now is keeping the wickets in hand and bring their Ashes rivals down.

New Zealand vs Pakistan, 35th Match

Toss win: New Zealand
Team win: Pakistan
Best Batsman: Daryl Mitchell
Best Bowler: Waseem Jr

NZ is still heavy on their batting even though they fell terribly last match which happened due to the wrong decision of bowling first against team like SA but the important concern for them is their camp is filled with lot of injuries and if you guys don't know then please note Matt Henry ruled out, Loki is injured, Kane Williamson injured and reports says they will be fit to play even though if they play their full potential won't be reflected. This is where Pakistan is having the edge and its do or die game for them so I hope they will win and keep their fans hope alive.

England vs Australia, 36th Match

Toss win: England
Team win: Australia
Best Batsman:  David Warner
Best Bowler: Adam Zampa

Nothing really worked for England but they got nothing to lose from now and if they want they can bring their ashes rivals along with them, so it is also can be excited if ENG took that approach and goes all guns blazing so called bazball.

It is even beyond their expectation but still two games left and I would say even if they can manage to win one out of those two big teams and based on other's results they still got the chance to make it to semi-finals. And if that happens then which incident even go to the history books of their nation for sure.

Tomorrow 2 important games and three teams are fighting for the 3rd and 4th spot.

NZ started their tournament on high level but their three back to back loss put them under this situation and in a day or two we might be able to conclude who will sit at the top 4 to play knockout games.

Netherlands vs Afghanistan, 34th Match

Toss Win: Netherlands
Team Win: Afghanistan
Best Batsman: Hashmatullah Shahidi
Best Bowler: Rashid Khan

Netherlands has really good bowling attack which can even match AFG team's bowling, but their top order hasn't been performed at all throughout this tournament while AFG showed consistency from their top order especially in the last two matches they showed the world how to bat at the 50 over format by convincing wins.

I had conversation with them about bitcoin as well as the returns but I don't think I forced them to invest on bitcoin and also I won't pressure or advise them to invest unless they express a genuine interest and seek my assistance. This way, I can preserve the integrity of my personal relationships and ensure that financial decisions are made with full awareness and consent.

Mixing relations and finance will always go wrong in my assumption so I won't put myself in such position. I believe that financial decisions, especially investments, should be made based on the individual goals, risk tolerance, and understanding.

I would still prefer SKY over Iyer and I will tell you why, he clearly has weakness against the short ball and today SL bowlers didn't attempted it however imagine match against SA where Rabada, Jansen, Coetzee will use the short ball as go to ball against him where he will fail for sure in my opinion.

There are some unofficial reports says that Hardik will join back to the team in the final league match against Netherlands and continue from there.

Congratulations team India for such commanding victory and kudos to the lethal bowling attack from all the three pacers.

Just 2 more wickets needed now and Shami is in four wickets, can he get one more?

Got to admit that this is the deadliest bowling attack of Indian pace bowlers and the inexperienced Lankans have no clue about how to approach the moving balls.

Literally India is humiliating the SL with ball and luckily SL matched the lowest ODI score now which is 35.

Team India backing up Iyer too much even though it is good for the team environment, still it is kind of discouraging to the talents who are waiting for their opportunities even after having records in their few appearances.

Gill and Kohli made good partnership but two of them fell short of their centuries, I was waiting for 49th ton today which came too close but again soft dismissal. Even after two wickets, India is maintaining the good phase, and it looks like we can reach 360 or more.

250/3 at 39th over. 50 partnership between Iyer and KL Rahul.

Actually it seems a good choice after winning the toss because SL bowlers started very good even after the wicket of Rohit there were atleast three dropped chances between Kohli and Gill which is where SL is proving why they are at this stage.

A partnership is now building in between Gill and Kohli hope they would take the game away from SL while the game progresses.

72/1 at the end of 12 overs.

India vs Sri Lanka, 33rd Match

Toss Win: India
Team Win: India
Best Batsman: Shubman Gill
Best Bowler: Mohammed Shami

This game will bring back the memories of 2011 for sure but its not the same strong team like they were before so there is no doubt that India will be having any issues on winning this game but I would like to see some changes like Ishan in place of Iyer so there will be combination of left and right which will be helpful in the upcoming matches. Also I feel this might be the game for Gill to get back to his golden form, so I'd go with him and let's see if he can.

I feel the wickets fell simply due to the scoreboard pressure, and any score over 300 will bring that psychological barrier and I expected this would happen immediately when NZ won the toss and said bowl first. Honestly why they chose to bowl?

SA lost to a low score while chasing against NED and the result almost same with Pakistan too but saved by that marginal mistake from umpire so why NZ didn't try to exploit their opposition weakness!

AFAIK, 12 points is enough to secure the top 4 spot and India as well as SA reached it so both teams will be fighting for top 1 and 2 positions while the remaining teams have to perform well as well rely on other's result to get qualified.

As of now NZ dropped to 4th position after the huge defeat against SA today which will make the NZ to win remaining 2 out of 2 to secure their spot or if 1 out of 2 then their qualification will be based on NRR.

Tomorrow we have India vs SL and with current form of India its impossible for SL to beat India but the fact its going to be the repeat of 2011 final since its going to happen at Wankhede. I hope India will make the right change now which is replace Iyer with Ishan and let the SKY continue at his current spot so that we still have the stability if Hardik might ruled out of the tournament at knockout stages.

New Zealand vs South Africa, 32nd Match

Toss Win: New Zealand
Team Win: New Zealand
Best Batsman: Rachin Ravindra
Best Bowler:  Marco Jansen

Really important match for NZ more than SA, after terrific start they struggled back to back loss and now sitting at 8 points so they need to win 3 out of 2 matches to get through semi-final comfortable or else their presence will depend on the run rate of other teams.

As others said if NZ won the toss and choose to defend it then It's pretty much a game in their hands.

Honestly, I feel 120K to 130K can be the realistic value to achieve, and it's just based on doubling the ATH value of BTC from its previous bullish season. Here is a breakdown BTC price chart.


From the chart we can see the from 2017 to 2021 the price tripled, and previously it was way higher, so I assume even if it doubles the price can reach over 120K for sure.

Match 31: Pakistan vs Bangladesh

Toss Win: Bangladesh
Team Win: Bangladesh
Best Batsman: Rizwan
Best Bowler: Mustafizur Rahman

Pakistan seems to be the clear favorites in this match but this tournament we have witnessed more upside down results so going to take a gamble and let's see Bangladesh can replicate what they are capable of. To add more spice to the coming matches even the team has no chance to qualify for the semis will try hard due to the ICC champions trophy qualification criteria changed and the top 7 teams and Pakistan will play the ICC champions trophy.

Assuming they can defeat Netherlands, still they have to pull another thriller against Australia or SA to get to that 10 points. But definitely they are showing how to play an ODI game for some bigger teams and also not in any fancy way just by setting up them in conventional way. As of now, their middle order seams to be more stable after India and NZ. Kudos to their efforts and from SL point of view they put themselves under too much pressure which restrict them from playing their natural game.
