India started this test match good but as the sessions progressed, they are losing their grip on this match. First, they let England make too many runs. Remember at one time the England team were  5 wickets down for 112 runs and then Joe Root played a brilliant not out innings of 112 runs. He was supported by lower middle order batsmen like Ben Foakes (who made 47 runs) and Ollie Robinson (who made 58 runs). This fight back by the England team helped them reach a decent total of 350+ odds runs. Now they only need to bowl well and have a firm advantage on this test match.

England bowlers did exactly what was required in the match and that was to take early Indian wickets. Shoaib Bashir from England took three wickets while James Anderson took one wicket which helped England to make India 4 wickets down at 154 runs.

India's batsmen had a poor batting start in their first innings. Although the opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal is not out at 73 runs but none of the other batsman made any decent score. Rohit Sharma, the captain of India, was out making only two runs. Shubman Gill and Ravindra Jadeja also were not able to stay on the crease when the test match demanded to play slow and sensibly. At the very moment, the Indian team is in trouble. If their wickets keep falling, I am afraid the match will tilt very much in England's favor.

That's not easy at all, that the person keeps on doing the free roll every hour for 18-24 hrs the day (Excluding) the sleeping time. There are other activities in life too and sometimes you may forget to do the freeroll for the hour or you might be busy in some other activities and not able online for this activity. Let's keep this to a realistic target.


Well, whether it is 0.1% probability or even less, people are still interested in getting the tickets. The only reason i see to this is the prize being offered by freebitco is huge and therefore people try their luck because if someone gets this Lambo, it can completely change the life of the gambler.
Anyway i haven't seen anyone here sharing that they have won the lottery. Let's hope someday someone will share their success story.

I would not agree that you need to play the sports on which you are betting. Yes, you need to have interest about the sports and also you need to have the knowledge of the sports but playing it physically is not a necessity. Also sometimes not everyone gets a chance to play the sports on which we bet.

For example, if you are betting on horse racing, who among us can do the horse racing himself ? I guess no one, because you need to have expertise and lot of experience even to sit on the horse and horse racing is something extraordinary activity. However, you can have complete knowledge about the game and then you may bet on that game. That is enough in my point of view.

Also, we need to see other things such as odds of the game and the difference between the odds too. Also i like the OP point of view where he mentioned that chance of winning a bet increases when we have two choices to bet on, instead of the three or more choices.

Even if you delete your online traces for gambling, the kids and children are clever enough to know what their parents are doing. The children knows what you are doing and they observe things very keenly and also try to follow their elders. If parents want their children do not gamble, they need to get rid of gambling themselves. There is no way that the parents gamble (openly or hiddenly) and the children do now know and follow them.


If parents lose in gambling, they will become frustrated and in this situation, they can behave badly with their children and abuse or punish their children too even though they have nothing wrong done by those children. I do not understand how to cope with such a situation but if the person is doing a responsible gamble he will be able to control his emotions and therefore he will behave normally with his kids, wife and all those near to him.

At yesterday's match, we saw a not good situation for Islamabad United In 10.5 overs when Quetta was bowling and Salman Agha was on strike Salman was out to Rossow with the rule of LBW and the umpire also gave it but Quetta took the review and in the review the ball was getting different as a throw. After this all United players and crowd were also shocked.

After the match, when Shadab came to the conference so he said "Technology is our against". In the end, he blamed technology. However, maybe is it fixed and if it is so it will be for the first time, at HBL PSL. Let's see if is it fixed so it will reveal after some time.

Today Babar Azam and Muhammad Rizwan will play against each other, and both are in form, so let's see what total runs they made and who will make more runs.
By the way, 2 days before where Multan had a match with Lahore while Peshawar had a match with Karachi Kings so on it Rizwan made 80 runs while Babar Azam made 72. If you add these runs, it will come as 152 and this is the best number because in 2021 WC Pakistan vs India, when Pakistan lost 0 wickets and chased Indian team target so the target was 152/0. At that time, Babar Azam and Rizwan made it and again they both stood together.

Today Babar Azam didn't play as well as we expected with him but it's part of the game. Sometimes, do very well, sometimes good, sometimes normal, and, sometimes poor so it's part of the game and today he did average runs.

Babar Azam was out by Usama Mir when Babar Azam was batting on 31 but Babar Azam couldn't face his ball and was out early. According to the current situation, Peshawar Zalmi is going to lose but let's hope that they will win, Peshawar hasn't won any match but maybe today is the day whee they are going to break their loses and win today but the current situation is not good. It's cricket anything can happen. Let' see how this match turns up.

We had a bit of controversial match between Islamabad United and Quetta Gladiators which was won by Quetta Gladiators by three wickets. This was the third win by them , thus they are undefeated in this tournament till now.

Islamabad United scored only 139 runs so it was quite obvious that Quetta Gladiators will take this match on an easy win. They did so, but lost way too many wickets. Losing seven wickets in this small chase does not suit them and they need to focus on their batting approach (although they haven’t face a loss till now).

The main highlighted event of the match was DRS technology and shadab khan is blaming on this wrong decision to be resulted in his team loss. The Hawk-Eye tracked the wrong ball, on which Rilee Rossouw should have out on LBW. He made only 34 runs but in the context of the match, there were the crucial runs and made Quetta Gladiators win.

The fourth and the very important test match for the England team started today. England loss the previous match and therefore this test series stand at 2-1 in the favour of Indian team. In case the Indian team won this match, they will take over the series. England team won the toss and they decided to bat first.

This doesn’t look like a good decision by them as they have already lost three wickets for 74 runs only. Indian bowler Akash Deep is having some very nice bowling today and he has already took three wickets in seven overs.  Zaw Crawley, Ben Duckett and Ollie Pope  have been dismissed so early by him and at the present the Indian bowlers are fully in attack mode and looking to take wickets. They are putting a meaningful impact on this match and England is really having trouble playing them. When a team has their top 3 batsmen dismissed in the first one session of the test match, you can understand the overall moral of that team in the dressing room.

First, if he starts to believe that he will never lose a bet, then it's called overconfidence and usually, the gamblers who have such thoughts would always lose in the long run. This is a totally unrealistic expectation from gambling which will never come true.  Also if a gambler starts to think that he wants to win big at once, he will start to take more risks and bet with more money. Due to this, he will lose further. If you think that you can big win, then it rarely happens. Usually, the big wins come with surprises and mostly people are not expecting it.


How is that that gambling will make your life so easy that you win a big jackpot once and then you will never gamble again?  I have seen that even after winning big amounts, the people greed never ends (in some cases people wants to win even more) and therefore they never stop gambling and loses in the end.



Gambling is not a job that you gamble for 8 hours a day. This is too much and it will make you a gambling addict. Also, we know that the longer you gamble, the more money you will spend in gambling. There is no such thing as free games in gambling. You will be spending money every second, every minute in gambling. Even if you decide to gamble with very small amount of money in each game, gambling for 8 to 10 hours will eventually make that amount huge and it will be even more sad if the gambler loses most part of that money.

Don't know what happens with 2 times champions. Haris Rauf's performance after BBL was not good and according to sources, at this time, this is a chance where PCB can cancel his contract. Maybe he can't go outside of the country to play any league but it will not happen because this is a part of the game to go out of form but we can hope that he will back in his performance.
He is the player who tried to do some good for his team but always he can't do it. However, he is a speed gun. At previous matches, his speed and Shaheen's speed had some issues both couldn't be cross 150 but now both are back in order in speed. Shaheen is good while Haris Rauf takes some time to back in order hopes before the World Cup his issues will clear and come back in form.

Pollard is a wonderful player against a very good spinner of Afghanistan Waqar Salamkheil, he hit 5 sixes almost he was just hit 6 sixes in 6 balls, and if he hit like this it could be the first time at PSL that a player hit 6 sixes in 6 balls.

Waqar Salamkheil is not too good bowler but at the same time, it's a spinner and this pitch was also good for spinners. In the spinner pitch, Pollard hit 5 sixes back to back to spinner, and with him Vince got a partner so he also hit some sixes after inspiring by Pollard. Yesterday with the wonderful batting Peshawar Zalmi still didn't do anything but hope in the upcoming matches Zalmi team performance will be back as 2017.

Karachi King's team had a bit of luck in that they achieved a win against Peshawar Zalmi, I think they had a problem with their batting and bowling because if you see bowling so still 4 overs were left then Karachi won but if there is another team so maybe the bowling went more harsh. So I think they should need to change their playing 11 as they can replace Cadmore and in the replacement of Cadmore HaseebUllha can come while in bowling if they replace Waqar Salamkheil and inside Arshad Iqbal in the playing 11s it will be great. I know Waqar Salamkheil took a wicket but he also got 5 sixes in a single over.

I hope i am not late to the competition and will try to be active in this contest. I am surprised to see that so many people are participating in it and most probably they know that there is no sponsors yet and hence it is a free contest with no money to be won 


Islamabad United vs Quetta Gladiators
Toss win:
Team win: Quetta Gladiators
Best Batsmen: Alex Hales
Best bowler: Amir

Here is my One Time : Predictions.

1: Who will win the final:  Quetta Gladiators
2: Who will score high runs throughout the tournament:  Babar Azam
3: Who will pick more wickets throughout the tournament:  Shaheen Afridi
4: Who will hit more sixes throughout the tournament: Fakhar Zaman

After some minutes, the toss is going to be held at Lahore. I think any team will win the toss so they will choose to Ball first because  Quetta Gladiators has M.Amir, Wasim Jr, and M.Hasnain which makes them more strong and best team. These three are the players who enable  Quetta Gladiators to become again Prime-Quetta Gladiators while Islamabad United have Naseem Shah and total three Shah's who can make the opponent team all out in just a few overs. Also, they had good all rounders while Quetta have Nafey. This competition is going to be next level because both teams had the best players. If  Quetta Gladiators has Nafey so Islamabad has Azam Khan. So, it is a competition that we will see at today's match in Lahore.



I will go with Quetta Gladiators as they have won their previous matches and are on the 2nd on the table, but they haven't lost any match. Multan Sultan also has not lost any match but since they played three matches, they have 6 points on the table and are on the top of the table.

New Zealand seemed to dominate the match in the first innings but the Australian team were equally better and were risen to the occasion to get a perfect start to the T20 series. Although the Australian team won by 6 wickets but the match was more close that then final scorecard suggests.



NZ vs AUS 1st T20 Reactions: Mitch Marsh 72 (44) & Tim David 31 (10) seals thrilling win for Australia

The reactions from the crowd was of course disappointment for the New Zealand fans as this match was played in Wellington, New Zealand and people expected from the host team to start of the series with a win. Devon Conway scored 63 runs and Rachin Ravindra scored 68 runs and both of these players batted at a good rate. Australian bowlers were not able to extract anything out of the wicket. Mitchell Starc, Pat Cummins and Mitchell Marsh took one wicket each but they gave away way too many runs. The same story we see in the New Zealand innings. However here the captain Mitchell Marsh scored 72 runs but he was supported by some quick shorts runs made by Travis Head, David Warner and other players. The match went down to the last overs and when you know the batting team has to score the 15 runs in last over, you reckon that the batting team (Australia) will face some difficulties in this finish. However, a poor display of bowling from the New Zealand made them lose this first match. They will have regain their confidence and come back even stronger in the next match. 

Well, it shows that money is something which can break the relations (i guess the reason for this break of relation was the split of money between them).
How often we see this is that people want to grab hold of money, which should have been split between the two parties. Here we can see that one party is claiming to the real owner of this winning amount only because she had used her bank account to purchase the tickets 




Well, the answer to this question is not simple. If the both partners have a mutual understanding between them and they favour each other, they will never fight for money in the first place. They will agree to settle the money between them. But if one of the partners wants to get hold of the money, then I am afraid they will reach to a dead end and eventually their relationship will end. Also if there is no agreement between the two, such cases may be settled by the court of law.

Also Lahore Qalandars is also failing in the current match which is ongoing at the moment. Lahore Qalandars has lost 2 wickets to Rassie van der Dussen and Shaibzada Farhan.
In Multan pitch, Multan Sultan got very good advantages because as you know, Multan ground is too big which helps to spinners to contribute at all the positions of fielders while in small grounds, the boundary is too close and hit with power at spinner ball so you can easily hit boundary but in big ground this thing can't be happen while more bounce is Multan Stadium pitch is also best for spinners and Lahore Qalandars have just a spinner so this is a thing that damage Lahore Qalandars play. Rashid Khan left PSL to play because of injury but it seems injury not to Rashid to Lahore Qalandars.

First Saim Ayub then Muhammad Haris, the wicket-taking process by Karachi Kings didn't stop. I think this match Karachi Kings going to win at that stage but it doesn't have any chance still because Shan Masood is not like a batsman, and Pollard was also getting old and now he cannot play well while only Shoaib Malik is left and he is all in one so I think the team of Peshawar will always try to find his wicket but I think if they play with Master Mind like as you know. Shoaib Malik is not a opener so he will come on 4 or 5 number but if Peshawar Zalmi bowlers don't take wickets but made pressure and try to find every ball dot so it's a very good because batsmen didn't want to lose wickets.

All the tactics from Peshawar Zalmi failed and Karachi Kings won by seven wickets. When a team in bad form like Karachi Kings had to chase such a small target, it's easy to predict that which team would win. When Peshawar Zalmi were all out at 154 runs, I at once thought that Karachi Kings would win this match and they needed to win their first match in this PSL.

Well, we have BPL and PSL going on the same time and it's hard to choose which match to watch live as both the tournaments are interesting to watch.

In the PSL, the last two matches were lost by Lahore Qalandars but don't forget the past as they won back-to-back two trophies to beat Multan Sultan at the final both times. But on the spot, this time Lahore Qalandars back to back lost two matches. In the last two seasons, everyone had fear of Lahore Qalandars but after seeing the first two matches of Lahore Qalandars every team got confidence and confidence is the thing that can win you a match when you need 36 in 6 balls, you can win it.

The biggest example of this thing is the player named Powell when he played IPL, and Mumbai Indians required 36 runs at 6 balls so he hit 6 sixes and comes as a man of the match. Though these things don't happen often but sometimes the miracles do happen.

Today is the match of New Zealand vs Australia that was a very great competition and I think that the target of New Zealand that they built and Australia came to chase was like an impossible target to chase but only a team like Australia maybe can chase it.

No one can say it that the New Zealand team made many runs to the target and they won because the opponent of the team was who could make every team cry just like India in the final. Also Pakistan was in the Semi-final of the World Cup but at the same time India had to face more cry than Pakistan because Pakistan was playing T20 match while India was playing the ODI match.

This was a close match at Wellington where Australia won it right at the end and chased a big target of 215. Australia needed four runs in the last bowl and they made it. Southee could not defend the 15 runs needed by the Australians and he couldn't even stop the 4 runs at the end. This was a thriller match to watch and i would say the New Zealand were unlucky at the end.

Today was the match of Peshawar Zalmi vs Karachi Kings. This Wednesday is going to be epic at Gaddafi Stadium. If there is a Sunday so more people will come to see the match but not a problem because Lahore and Pakistan are too big so from anywhere we will see the crowd shouting and cheering.

Babar Azam and Aamer Jamal had no competition by the way, Babar Azam and Aamer Jamal both played for Karachi Kings and today we will see them against their turning point of a career franchise. Karachi Kings have just 2 good players Shoaib  Malik and Hamza Mir. I don't think so that Hamza Mir is excellent but according to the team, we can say him good.



At the first ball of the innings of Peshawar, Saim Ayub lost is wicket on the very first ball by the 42-year-old person Shoaib Malik. Saim Ayub wanted to hit on the cover but when Malik released the ball so Saim decided to hit swipe but in the middle, he changed his idea and decided to play at the cover to get four runs but the problem came where when Malik's ball extraordinary spin in the air and come before his bat.  He still had a chance to save wicket but it's Shoaib Malik spin so the result is the out on the first ball. This out made pressure on Peshawar Zalmi on starting of the match.
