Glad Aussies were able to take wickets else a draw would be the result and it being the last day, England were surely looking to keep their wickets in hand. Now either Aus would win the series or it would be a tie if England win the next but the former one is more probable as Aus have Smith and England need to take his wicket like they did in the second innings to restrict Aus below 250.

Australia is winning this so easily. Because Stokes failed miserably in both innings. Nobody from England can match upto Smith and he just missed one match and England managed to win it. It means Aus mainly depends on one player who plays tremendously well for them. Still England have managed to bring down the number of runs from 380+ to 211. 7th wicket gone now.

Great partnership between Roots and Burns but the game is getting too slow and boring now with almost 2.5 days gone and 2nd innings is not over. England need 360+ runs which looks possible now since they have 8 wickets and Stokes is yet to bat. They should get the runs today but very less time is left. Looks like they will get just 100-130 more runs today at their current run rate.

Seriously it made no sense to declare before 500. Are they underestimating England to not even score 250 in the first innings or they just felt they are short of time? Looks like his astrologer told him declare at 497. Sometimes these captains make such weird decisions that I feel they all follow numerology.

Smith on 179. Double century is close. Never thought they could cross 350 but now 450-500 is easy for them. Aus won't declare before 500 now. Considering the second day is almost going to end in 5 hours, this match will likely end in a draw.

Lunch now. They have already scored 245 and if Smith can get a decent partnership of 50+ runs with Paine and/or Cummins 350 runs would be enough but if Smith doesn't last till 150, they may get less than 300-320 max which is less. On this pitch where rain is a threat, England may not be able to chase down 300+ score as Starc too has come back. England's chances of winning have reduced now as they have always failed to take Smith's wicket.

Ignorance is bliss...It has always helped me in such cases.

Ledger nano is the best option and I own a Ledger Nano S. If you have too many coins, got for Nano X. Till now my experience is good and since it gives passphrase safety option along with the seed, it's the safest option as of now. Ledger is the same but not used it so have no idea about the space issues.

Indonesia also is banned as per Bitpay when it has declared that bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies are recognized.

It may just be because these countries refuse to accept bitpay else the list would include countries like India, Pakistan and so on where the currency is not accepted. It would be a huge list so it has nothing to do with legality or it being illegal.

They already lost 3.5 hours on the first day. Rain ran go away, come again another day... :-P

Since both  Smith and Marnus are playing, who has been dropped from this match? I don't blame Warner now as he suddenly outperforms and then goes back to scoring in single digits or gets out for 0. They'll need to give him rest till he gets in form again.

Edit: Labuschagne out. With Smith, 350 looks like a good target but if he gets out soon, 250 looks like all they can get.

I don't think it can be 4 BTC for Latoken as they have mentioned this on their telegram channel

https://t.me/latoken

Since DLSD project did not even bother to list it on cheaper exchanges, I highly doubt they would pay 4 BTC as listing fee.

You are a newbie so nobody will be able to trust you that you'll send $2 ETH back. It's best to buy ether from myetherwallet directly with BTC rather than ask anyone to send first here.

Hate it when such rapists and predators commit suicide. Such an easy death. But in any case most don't even get a death sentence but only life sentence.

Thanks! Looks like I'll require less than 0.5 XEM to transfer my tokens then as the same rate is given for 100k XEM tokens. Will buy 5 tokens to be on a safe side.

Sites which I have used have a fee as low as 0.0002 which is fixed and their transactions get confirmed within 5-10 mins max. 0.001 BTC is usually charged by exchanges and not gambling sites. Better to avoid such websites unless you are wagering and withdrawing big amounts.

Primedice used to have 0.004 BTC as the minimum amount to withdraw and huge fee earlier but now it seems they reduced it to 0.00005000 BTC. Do these transactions get confirmed soon?

The problem is not you asking for KYC but your requirements are unusual and suspicious. You have sent such emails to almost everyone who has complained "our security system has detected suspicious activity on your account" which is false as many have confirmed that their account was not compromised. How can you claim this statement is true for everyone and force them to complete KYC and then only release their funds? This proves that you'll aren't genuine.

They did not choose any man of the series even though the series got over. They could have chosen Rahane who performed well in both matches.

Virat is now on the 2nd position and Smith after a year ban is on the first with just 1 point more. Hope Virat can perform better against SA as his performance was not so consistent in both matches.

May be he wanted to put up a score of 400+ but still it's not logical when you can chase it down. Now if by any chance WI chase it down (highly impossible looking at WI's state), India will lose the match.

But here's an interesting record:



https://www.indiatoday.in/sports/cricket/story/west-indies-vs-india-test-series-stats-preview-ind-look-to-maintain-17-year-unbeaten-streak-in-tests-vs-wi-1587261-2019-08-21

And again some weird decisions made by India in 2016 and 17:

    
2016-2017 India v New Zealand
2016-2017 India v Bangladesh

India declared their first innings after getting 587, 687 runs and then chose not to follow on after having 250-280+ runs for the other team to defend. They ultimately won both the matches by 321 and 208 runs respectively.

It's been only twice that a team who chose not to follow on have lost the match.

Edit:


Horrible man if it's true.

They were all criminals and a gang and he knew all of them personally. Scamming them of 4.5 billion and then expecting them to believe his wallet got hacked was pretty foolish. After being tortured also, the scammer did not want to give back the money which was a call for death. Still don't support criminals but they all were equally bad. Sad that it happened in India.

Not applying the follow-on rule was not a right decision as they already had a lead of 300+ runs and they could have batted again in the last innings in case they had any runs to chase. Looking for improving batting stats doesn't make sense here so Virat took a wrong decision. Kohli himself got out for 0 then with the poor performance of Rahul and Agarwal.



He is talking about the 168 runs made in the second innings. Not the lead.
