The wait is finally over!
Virat Kohli scored his 49th ODI century on his 35th birthday at Eden Gardens. He has now equaled Sachin Tendulkar's record and might even surpass it in the upcoming matches. Nothing but respect for King Kohli. Additionally, Jadeja's excellent performance has taken India's total to over 300. This score should be more than enough on this slow surface. It will be challenging to chase down this total for SA. Hopefully, India's spinners will play a significant role against South Africa's batters.

Its quite easy to beat Rayo as long as Bellingham, Vinic and Rodrygo have to appear in this match who will score at least 2 winning scores to take the top position in the standings which is currently controlled by Girona. It seems like only Real Madrid and Barcelona are able to break Girona dominance because its really not funny that La Liga is controlled by Girona which for me is still too early but I am quite impressed with Girona performance yesterday winning with a big score beating Osasuna and it looks like Girona current strength is true. really shook the La Liga standings and I still have confidence that Real Madrid will break Girona dominance.
What an outstanding performance! I watched the match, and they came from behind to defeat Osasuna. With this win, they've gone 3 points clear at the top of La Liga. Girona is on fire, and they're definitely enjoying their best moments in La Liga. The team is amazing, but they might face defeats from the league giants. The season is still long, and I have my doubts about whether they can even secure a top-4 position by the end of the season. It's likely that either Madrid or Barcelona will win the trophy. |

Not sure , how can you say that New Zealand will win this match when the Pakistan batsmen are playing even better? Fakhar Zaman unbeaten at 126 from only 81 balls while Babar Azam playing at 66 with almost run a ball pace.
The rain has interrupted the match again but once again Pakistan are 21 runs ahead in DLS. I checked the Cricinfo to get the latest information because the sports channel has started showing other match between Australia and England. From Cricinfo sources, the rain is heavy and we don't have much time to resume the match.
If the play did not resume, how unfortunate it will be for NZ that after making 400+ runs, they have to be on the losing side.
I think the rain become blessing for Pakistan team. Fakhar zaman and Babar Azam still playing on the pitch. What the hack match already done due to the rain . And it's seems pakistan won the match by 23 run with the dls method. I am feeling bad for New Zealand team that they are also did a great performance today especially from the side batting. I think New Zealand fans are also will be very disappointed for this DLS method. Anyway Pakistan team also did well batting that is why they on this match but sad for the New Zealand team. Pakistan won by 21 runs (DLS method). Congratulations to Team Pakistan for their must-win match against New Zealand, earning two points as the game was called off. Pakistan's incredible batting performance truly deserved this victory. They were well ahead of New Zealand, and it was a delight to watch the powerful hitting from Fakhar Zaman and Babar Azam. This victory can be attributed mainly to Fakhar Zaman's performance. |

I don't know, but it really gives me pleasure to watch Al Hilal. Maybe they spent less money than some clubs, but they are doing great things in terms of football and games. They won a penalty very early and Mitrovic scored the penalty goal into the left corner. On the contrary, Al Hilal's other goal was scored at the end of the match in extra time, and Al Dawseri scored this goal.
Al Hilal has been winning for four matches, I think the difference between them and Al Nassr is not small, even though it is early in the season. Likewise, Nassr started the season very badly, but Al Hilal has already impressed the audience with the play it has played since the beginning of the season.
The points difference between these two clubs is 7 points with Al Nassr still having 1 game they haven't played this week. Looking at Al NAssr's opponents this week it looks like they will win the match and make their point difference reduced to 4 points. 4 points is a pretty tight point difference considering the remaining matches in the SPL are still very much. And also the meeting between these two clubs can make the situation change. The meeting of these two clubs is scheduled to take place in the next month and it will definitely be an interesting match. Al-Hilal has moved 7 points clear at the top of the Saudi Pro League. But it's still too early to make the final call. Just like Arsenal could have won the EPL last season. Al-Nassr is in the second position, with a game in hand. They are on the rise, and who knows, they might just surprise us? Al-Nassr has to win their next game, by the way! The league is gradually becoming more exciting. |

What if Leverkusen will win Bundesliga this year ? At this point I do think this scenario is becoming more and more possible with each game this team is playing and actually winning. Next game they do play against Hoffenheim who is currently on position 6 and is that type of team who goes for all or nothing because they have 0 draws so far! Also worth to mention that both Leverkusen and Bayern are undefeated so far in 9 games in Bundesliga  Leverkusen continue to perform brilliantly and are on a streak. They are top of the league with eight wins and one draw in nine games. Xabi Alonso is doing great things as a manager as well as a footballer. At the end of this season we will hear his name frequently in the elite coaches' class. Leverkusen also beat Sandhausen 5-2 in the cup and have turned into an unstoppable team. An astonishing performance indeed. Xabi Alonso has taken Leverkusen to a whole new level, and they're currently sitting in the first position in the standings. It's a clear sign of his coaching skills that he's competing with wealthy, star-studded teams like Munich without spending much. He's a masterclass coach, and let's hope this success continues. He has turned his team into a serious contender to win Bundesliga. |

164-8, Netherlands in deep trouble, looks like they ain't gonna make much today, much hope for further runs depends on Van Der Merve.
Afghanistan in opportunity to capitalize and close the game early to get NRR boost.
Sadly I did't watch the run-outs, but from the scorecard looks they were set batters, they must be so disappointed.
169/9 ,If Afghanistan can beat Netherlands by a big margin today, NRR will be way ahead in the points table. Apart from their match today, the remaining two matches will be very tough but Afghanistan must get 12 points to qualify for the semi-finals. Afghanistan's next matches are against Australia and South Africa. A win in one of the next two matches will definitely have a chance to qualify. From 92/2 to 179/10, what a comeback for Afghanistan needs just 180 runs in 50 overs to register their fourth win of the season and join New Zealand and Australia with eight points on the table. A commendable show by Afghanistan's bowlers with Mohammed Nabi and Noor Ahmad clinching 3 and 2 wickets respectively. Not a good day for Netherlands 4 player run out. Afghanistan needs 180 runs to win this match and they have chance it in 30 over to improve their NRR. What a comeback by Afghanistan's bowlers! They've been bowling well and showing some great fielding in this tournament. They really deserve a spot in the semi-finals. I can see Afghanistan's batting approach; they seem to be aiming to chase down the total in under 30 overs to improve their net run rate (NRR). |

I think that when the markets start going up again, BTC will become even more valuable. If someone believes that the Bitcoin surge is over and they're waiting for it to drop so they can buy, that's a valid strategy. But what if Bitcoin keeps going up from here? What if a significant drop isn't in sight? So, it's a good idea to invest while you can and hold your Bitcoin for the right time.
Technically, Bitcoin has been following a cycle since the beginning, and it's likely to continue doing so in the coming years. I'm confident that the bullish trend will return, maybe even exceeding our expectations.

Innings break!
India has set a big target for Sri Lanka. Sri Lanka must chase down 358 runs in 50 overs to secure a victory. This win is vital for Sri Lanka as it will earn them two crucial points to boost their chances of reaching the semi-finals. While Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, and Shreyas Iyer delivered outstanding performances with the bat, none of the Indian batsmen managed to score a century. Indian bowlers have been performing impressively in this tournament, making it a challenging task for Sri Lankan batters to chase the total.

That's if Erik Ten Hag will still have a job by the transfer window, I though he was really handling the crisis in the club well, but it looks like I am wrong. The path that Manchester United are on does not look good, they are no longer in the Carabao cup, they look like they will be out of the champions league soon too, and in the premier league, they are not in a good position and may not find it easy to bounce back and qualify for the champions league of next season.
What happened at Manchester United is actually quite surprising because what they have shown this season is the opposite of last season, even though they have spent quite a lot of money to strengthen their squad, perhaps Manchester United's talent scouts are not as sharp in spotting potential players, with them having been eliminated in The Carabao Cup will increase the pressure that they have to be better in the English Premier League and Champions League, but the Champions League is a difficult competition for them to beat. Buying players in the next transfer window might be a solution, although it is possible that it will be like Chelsea, which did not bring about significant changes to the club, so Manchester United's condition is truly confusing. There may be surprising news that the current coach will be replaced by another if the situation does not improve soon. Man United so far this season- Strugglingggggggg Their current win percentage is at 46%, but I have doubts that it will decrease further by the end of this season if no action is taken. Despite spending a significant amount to money to strengthen their squad, the manager is in dire need of a top-notch goal scorer and an excellent goalkeeper. Oddly, these were available but were benched and not given contract renewals, leaving the manager in a perplexing situation. The team's unity among players is lacking, and I don't see any positive energy among them. It seems like the Glazers purchased everything the coach wanted, but the team is struggling. Now the coach might even face the risk of being fired. |

I'm not surprised Man U lost yesterday... Newcastle played with the main squad they play with all the time, but Man U played with players I don't know... Of course with that squad they would have lost to Newcastle without a doubt...
After seeing the Manchester United lineup in the match, I was expecting Newcastle to win the match easily. Even when using their main squad, their performance is always poor, and they are always struggling to win most of the weak teams they have been playing. How will Ten Hag use the players that he used and expect a win from the match? Or maybe Ten Hag forgot he was playing against Newcastle  . Let's see how Manchester united will be performing in their next match, since Manchester United's next match is going to be against Fulham, let's see the rubbish they will be playing in the match. Let's see how Manchester United will struggle to win Fulham. Manchester United has suffered 3-0 losses in two consecutive home games, and their home ground doesn't provide the advantage it used to. These days, these result from Man United aren't surprises. Newcastle's win was well-deserved because, after just 10 minutes, they showed they were the better team. I would actually be surprised if Manchester United win over Fulham in their next meeting. I'm quite confident that Fulham will defeat them this weekend. Hopefully, Copenhagen can add to their troubles because the team seems to be struggling and out of form. |

This relates to consistency in maintaining performance until the end of the season and the strength of the players they have is one of the factors that can provide opportunities for them. Lens performed well last season and managed to finish in second place, but they were still unable to beat PSG's dominance in terms of winning the title. This season this will happen again because PSG challengers such as Nice and Monaco were ultimately unable to survive until the end of the season in the competition for the title. Nice and Monaco will be strong challengers for PSG this season, but when it comes to fighting for the title I still have quite doubts about both of them because as we enter the second half of the season many things will change, especially regarding several players who are injured which can affect the team's performance in maintaining consistency. This is what makes us a little doubtful even though Nice is one of the teams that is unbeaten in the 10 matches that have taken place and they even managed to beat PSG. The season is still too long to argue about who will lead the standings until the end and who will win the title. In fact PSG has always had better chances regarding the title, but anyone can hope that the title race this season can be better than just PSG. Nice, Monaco and PSG are 3 teams that will probably compete fiercely to win the title this season. We also shouldn't completely ignore Lille in the race, but I just believe that PSG, who have better squad depth on paper, could be the favorites to secure the title again this season. At the moment the three teams don't have much difference in points, so that's something interesting. Who's discussing the title race in early November? It's way too soon in the season, and what matters is how you finish, not how you start. It's definitely premature to make judgments after only 10 games. Based on that theory, the top 5 teams might seem like title contenders in Ligue 1, but it's unlikely they'll maintain that position throughout the season. By the end of the season, they probably won't even make the top 4. PSG, on the other hand, has consistently had better odds of winning the title. I'm not fully convinced by any particular club at this point because the season is a long journey, and it's your performance that will determine where you stand at the end. |

New Zealand is almost out of the game. They are currently 8 wickets down at 110 and need another 248 runs. They are losing by a huge margin, and this will make a dent in their run rate. Now, I think other teams have a chance to qualify for the semi-final after this defeat, obviously, with a lot of conditions/scenarios. The next game between New Zealand and Pakistan will be a high-octane game at Bengaluru.
Not a very good decision to field first by the New Zealand captain; everyone knows that SA is not good at chasing big targets, but I don't know what the captain was thinking.
Very bad performance by the New Zealand team and now definitely South Africa has confirmed it's spot for the semifinal I was not expecting that kind of performance from New Zealand. Keshav Maharaj on fire at this time got 4 wickets of New Zealand team. Marco Jansen also got 3 wickets. Excellent performance by South Africa. And advance Congratulations to South Africa. New Zealand has bowled out for 167, and South Africa won by 190 runs. South Africa is one of the top contenders in this World Cup. They've shown that consistently setting a target and then defending it is a winning strategy. Quinton de Kock has been in excellent form, and their bowlers have been impressive throughout the tournament. Unfortunately, New Zealand team let us down our hopes with their batting performance. While Glenn Phillips made a commendable individual effort, it wasn't enough to save New Zealand from a disappointing batting display against South Africa. |

As you mention, never put all your eggs in one basket and you will have a greater profit when investing in less popular (or smaller altcoins). On the other hand, investing in ETH is a much safer bet so it all depends on how much risk you want to take.
Absolutely , there are thousands of cryptocurrencies in existence and there are Hundreds in TOP rank that we can choose so why need to invest in single coin , also there is Bitcoin that is more safer and better so make it as our priority. I may want to advise buying Ethereum also because that is what major altcoin means to me , and of course Binance though some news it was risky but for long term , I think I am good in this one. I believe altcoins are not to be held for very long, it's okay as long as you are just holding them until the bull run and then selling them instead of keeping a hold on them thinking that they will become more valuable in the next bull run because that is foolish. Even the most trusted altcoins can face problems on the way to the next bull run, and one can also buy more if they sell them at their best price and then the market drops which always happens after the bull run. So, the only cryptocurrency that deserves to be held for the long term is Bitcoin, in my opinion, and altcoins are good only for short-term trading where one can get a few percentages in profit and then sell them so that they don't risk losing their investment in case something goes wrong with the projects. A good portion of your portfolio should be invested in BTC. During a bear market, consider using that time to buy more BTC. However, it's also important to hold some altcoins. What I recommend is to focus primarily on high-quality altcoins that have the potential to significantly increase your portfolio. But remember, it's crucial to take profits along the way to avoid the risk of losing your investment. Right now, we're in the pre-halving year, and BTC dominance is on the rise. Apart from holding BTC, this period offers an excellent opportunity to invest in altcoins. When BTC dominance eventually reverses, altcoins can make investors millionaires, as they often do. |

Mane brings the victory for Al Nasrr in the extratime, they sweat a lot to get this victory, more than they want i think. But it was against a good team with a lot of european stars like them.
Only one game left for this 16 round in Kings cup.
Mane has really been savior for Al Nassr and this match is very important because by getting this win it will be easier for Al Nassr to qualify for the next round. Ronaldo played quite well in the first half and after Talisca came out at the end of the first half Ronaldo was not as aggressive in the second half and couldn't have more places to attack, Talisca is player who is very important for Al Nassr front line so from the red card what he gets could be very detrimental to the team. In the future Al Nassr will have several matches without Talisca, but in some of these matches they will only face teams that are quite weak so there is still a possibility that Al Nssr will be able to achieve any victory without Talisca. Sadio Mane's goal in extra time send Al-Nassr into the quarter-finals of the King Cup of Champions. It's unfortunate that despite his goal being crucial in helping Al-Nassr qualify for the next level, the media hasn't given him much praise. I really enjoyed Mane's performance, as well as the strong defense from Al-Nassr. It's clear there's good teamwork going on. The combination and influence of Sadio, Ronaldo, and Talisca in Al-Nassr is significant. Although Talisca will be absent in the upcoming games due to his red card, the combination of Sadio and Ronaldo might help them overcome the challenges. |

36 overs and SA at 205-1, De Kock makes 100 once again, he's been in great form, they should easily cross 300+. I wonder why Latham choose to bowl when even commentary guys were saying SA hasn't been good at chasing.
Unbelievable batting. De Kock is consistently scoring centuries, and he's just hit his 4th hundred in this World Cup. He's been the standout player of the tournament. What a fantastic way to say farewell to your last World Cup. He's having a dream run in his final ODI tournament and is heading into retirement with a bang. South Africa has already crossed 300 runs in the 46th over. Dussen and Miller are at the crease, hitting the ball to all around of the field. |

In one or two months later will know with Mbappe future keep stay with PSG or sell him before becoming free agent, I don't think PSG won't extend him until his contract over because ability to earn above 100 million euro for selling him to many interested teams such as Real Madrid and Premier League teams.
Actually by looking at the current conditions, I think clarity about Mbappe's future is already visible because however most likely what will happen at this time is only about him leaving PSG and that is the latest at the end of this season. But apart from that, what is interesting now is the destination club of Mbappe because surely apart from a big club, money will also be very influential in this case because after all, the current value of Mbappe is more than 200 million at this time and a release clause like this will not be able to be paid easily for an ordinary club. Several clubs have indeed been linked with Mbappe even long before just for the clarity of this matter is still not visible until now. But it seems, if Mbappe is still tied only to money, then maybe Mbappe will stay at PSG. Because of course, PSG will find it difficult to let Mbappe leave, and thus PSG will try to give him a good value too of course. Therefore, it is difficult for other clubs to recruit Mbappe, unless Mbappe is willing to lower his value, then of course there will be many big clubs out there who will recruit Mbappe. But yes, I hope Mbappe prioritizes about achievement because then, of course, Mbappe will be able to leave easily and quickly. Almost all players will think about money but it must also be in line with achievements, currently Mbappe is in a difficult situation, if he stays at PSG then his career will not develop, especially now that PSG is in decline and it is also difficult for Mbappe to be able to build or make PSG successful. did a lot on the European stage. I think the possibility of Mbappe staying at PSG is very small, regardless of whether PSG will pay very big money for Mbappe, but all football players will also think about their careers. This analysis is spot on. Mbappe is a key figure in French football. President Macron succeed to persuade him to stay at PSG last year, but the current situation is quite challenging. Mbappe is no longer willing to sacrifice his career objects. It's time for him to move on, regardless of whether PSG offers a big amount of money or other else. Clearly, Mbappe's heart is no longer with PSG. He has achieved what he supposed to at PSG. Authority should allow him to leave and begin anew. Show appreciation for his contributions and give him the freedom to choose his future. |

Vinicius has signed a contract extension with Real Madrid that goes until 2027. He seems like he was born to play for Real Madrid. Congratulations to him, but it appears that he might be losing focus on game. Vini should step up his game. While it's true that the current system may not be ideal, given his immense potential, he can perform at a higher level. It would be great to see his skills shine on the field. Real Madrid includes a €1 billion release clause in their contracts to prevent other clubs from trying to buy their star players. That release clause is too much anyway.

Pakistan's bowlers had a solid performance today, with notable displays from Shaheen Shah Afridi and Mohammad Wasim vs Bangladesh. Bangladesh couldn't bat for the full 50 overs and set a target of 205 runs for Pakistan. I hope Bangladesh can defend this score because of pitch nature. They might be out of form, but they still have a chance if they can take early wickets. If Bangladesh's bowlers can grab 2/3 wickets in the power play, they'll be dominant the game.

IMO it was not fair. Messi didn't played well in his present club compared to the performance of Ronaldo in at El Nasir. I believe he actually won the Ballon d'Or because of the world cup he won and he had performed and manage his countries team to win.
Earlier today I had some conversations about this and led to some argument with my freind and neighbor. Most of them were sentimental because they love Messi and a loyal fan to him. One of them said something that changed my mindset. He said in other to win the Ballon d'Or it does not depend on the voting strength its different now. What is important is your input to the team you play with. When Mudrich won the Ballon d'Or he won world cup and played very well and his impact to his team was top notch.
Just win a world cup and you win the Ballon d'Or
Ballon d'Or is no longer something you win; it's something you're given. It's not a reliable measure of football performance anymore. If we're comparing achievements like the World Cup (Messi) and the treble (Haaland), then shouldn't Alvarez win the Ballon d'Or since he's won both? FYI, this award isn't decided by a committee. It's determined by votes from 100 journalists representing various nations. Each journalist has one vote. |

They scored 188 runs in 41 overs.
Afghanistan bowled brilliantly against Sri Lanka as they managed to keep a team like Sri Lanka below 250 runs. Considering yesterday's match, less than 250 runs is not an easy target for any team. In yesterday's match, we saw England batting only 129 runs against the target of 230 runs given by India. If Sri Lanka can bowl well against Afghanistan today then it is not impossible for Sri Lanka to win this match. Srilanka is not bowling well so far because we saw in India match against England India took 4 wickets in first 10 overs there Srilanka is far behind in this match against Afghanistan so for now as per game statistics I will put Afghanistan ahead in today's match. Rahmat Shah led Afghanistan's innings well until Rajitha managed to take his wicket, giving Sri Lanka a crucial breakthrough. Rahmat Shah departed after scoring his second consecutive World Cup fifty. With only three wickets down for Afghanistan, they are still in the game. After a strong bowling performance, their batsmen are doing a good job. Let's hope they can continue this batting form and reach the target. |
