It is a big day in the Bundesliga.  Smiley  Because this evening Leverkusen are hosting Bayern Munich at BayArena. As I must have said before this is like the most important game on the road going to the league title. For both sides I mean. Leverkusen are in a really advantageous situation considering their placement in the standings now.

The match is overrated. Of course it is the game between the best two teams of the season, but the outcome of the game will say little about the next Bundesliga champion. If there is a draw, then it will still only be 2 points. Should Leverkusen win, they would be 5 points ahead, which is a nice lead, but not much with 13 games to go. If Bayern win, they would be 1 point clear at the top, which is also minimal. Conclusion: Hopefully an exciting game, but no preliminary decision in the race for the championship.

The match between Bayern Munich and Leverkusen is going on right now. 68 minutes have been played in this match and to my surprise Bayern Munich has not been able to score. Meanwhile, their opponent has been able to score two goals already. The current score is two-zero. It looks like Leverkusen is going to win this match unless something and expected happens in the last 25 minutes of the match. Let's see if Bayern Munich can salvage something from this situation. Right now it seems like if they can somehow avoid a loss it is going to feel like a win for them.

IMO, manchester united needs to get him. The club needs someone who can carry the club. guirass was the right answer for manchester united. Hojlund was still performing so poorly and this shall be concerned by ten hag. I think that ten hag needs to get another striker to build the competition between any striker available in the club. Bring osimhen in the squad is one of best solution to give pressure to the hojlund to be even more competitive in the squad too. Guirassy will become the best choice for manchester united. I don't see other candidate which will be capable enough other than him.
In fact, Guirassy and Victor Osimhen will be candidates that MU will never get because we all know the reason why quality players always refuse to join MU.
It's true that nothing is impossible, but I can guarantee that Guirassy and Osimhen will accept MU offer and on the one hand, if Osimhen joins MU, I think he will suffer a loss because Osimhen has lost his best performance and was only able to get good results last season.
For Guirassy, we all know that Guirassy is not only MU target, but currently more popular clubs like Liverpool also want this player, so Guirassy will choose to join Liverpool rather than MU.

I thought a little about why Erik Ten Hag was busy looking for attacking players while MU had a very bad line lacking quality players in defenders who always conceded easily, but it was very funny that Erik Ten Hag was looking for attacking players.

Manchester United is actually lacking in almost every respect. And at this moment any player is definitely not going to want to come to Manchester United. He will have a fear that even if he is performing well right now, after going to Manchester United his form might fall. We have seen that happened with so many players. So why didn't the player take that risk of going to Manchester United right now? Even if the money Manchester United is offering is almost impossible to deny, but I believe a player that is performing well should not go to Manchester United right now. Because after that it will all go down help for him or them.


Another mistake being made by him. Barcelonba was a poor club enzo and the blaugrana must have paid a lot of money to get him. At least 100 millions to get enzo from chelsea. I don't even know what motive owned by this guy to offer himself to the barcelona but it's another disgrace. barcelona therorically is a poor club right now.
This club has no money to buy the new players and i think that enzo's chance to join in the barcelona is still remain zero at this time. The better for barcelona to raise some money to recover the performance from the club. Im concerning about the performance from him in chelsea was not that good.

Due to circumstances, he was not able to have a long shoot. Before Barcelona attempts to buy him as a new player, there are several considerations that need to be taken into account. Barcelona will not have interest to buy him caused by the club was still struggling to recover its financial.
Current with financial condition, Barcelona must be realistic when signing top players and looking for players under 50 million euro for fees transfer, its seems very difficult and impossible for Barcelona sign top players had values above 100 million after last recruitment Philipe Countinho and right now Barcelona more sign free agent players or get offering loan option.
Talking about Enzo Fernandez is most expensive transfer fees for Barcelona, right now all teams won't get payment in installments and get cash fees transfer without had to pay more than two or three years later.

Beside get difficult with high transfer fees, Barcelona faced another problem after success signing new players they have habit problem such as difficult to registering new players without cut off payment salary with senior players.

The way Barcelona is approaching things right now, I don't think they will be able to sustain for a long period of time. Because they do not have enough money to throw around right now. The little you do not have money to register players that they have already acquired. we have seen that in the recent past. And now Barcelona going for players who will cost more than a fortune is definitely not the right decision from them. If they had money today that wouldn't have been a problem. But they do not have money and for some reason they seem to forget that whenever they are going for a good player.

Yes, until now Ronaldo is still considered very arrogant and emotional. But Ronaldo certainly did this for a reason. I don't know if the Al Nasr fans who were there were too angry with Ronaldo, then Ronaldo was insulted there. Or vice versa, it was the supporters from Al Hilal who insulted him and he was thrown an Al Hilal branded scarf. So Ronaldo's emotions overflowed and he carried out this action. So I won't comment much on this, but what is certain is that Ronaldo shouldn't have done this.
Its not the first time with Cristiano Ronaldo emotional can't acceptable with his teams got losses, when still playing with Manchester United he showed bad attitude has any fans ask him take picture but throw the fans mobile phone. I don't think with Cristiano Ronaldo only but also all players will got emotional when their team losses, fans have put in the right position when had the players get losses with their teams without make anything become controversial.

Al Nassr and Cristiano Ronaldo must forget their losses against Al Hilal last match and keep focus to improve performance upcoming match in AFC Champion League before playing in domestic league again. Its not really important with the emotional from Cristiano Ronaldo and become unusual expressing by any players when their teams got losses, not looking forward because Al Nassr must win on the first leg AFC Champion League match and take three points every domestic league match if want keep in tittle race with Al Hilal.

Sometimes I really do not understand what people expect from Cristiano Ronaldo or even public figures in general. Because every man goes through a lot of difficult things in his life. It is clear that Cristiano Ronaldo still wants to perform at his best. Which he is actually doing of course. But for some reason, people tend to not care about his privacy and his mental state at all. All people care about is a selfie. People have to understand that Cristiano Ronaldo is the biggest superstar in the world, not themselves. A minute of Cristiano Ronaldo's time costs thousands of dollars. And he is a professional footballer. he does not have to actually take a picture with a fan to prove that he's a good footballer.

Jadeja can bat when needed but Kuldeep Yadav cannot, his fitness is a concern and the management might not pick him in the third test. Jurel should replace Bharat as he has not been the best with his form, he is not even good in taking DRS calls. The problem is with the middle order and Kohli's replacement. I haven't found anyone suitable except KL Rahul. I doubt he would bat in that order if he is fit as he has been batting really well in the 5th position. Kohli missing out all the matches means something serious has happened in his personal life. I hope he gets out of the problem and get ready for the T20 world cup.

With the T20 World Cup coming up I hope all the major players will be ready to play. Virat Kohli missing out on all the matches is definitely a little concerning. But I am not sure if anything in his personal life actually happened or something. I have no idea about that. But I hope he will be able to play without any problems in the World Cup. Because we know how hard it is to replace a player like him.

Jadeja might not be a better bowler than Kuldeep Yadav but he is definitely a better all rounder and he can also throw the ball very well from almost anywhere, bringing in a run out from nothing.

The final match of the ODI series between South Africa and Australia has started. Today's match is expected to be a very exciting one. Because in the previous two matches, both teams have won one match each. Today's match is equal for both teams. The team that can perform well in this match will win the series today. In today's match Australia team won the toss and started batting first. Opening the batting, Australia's two openers are trying to settle into the batting and have collected 16 runs so far in 4.5 overs. I bet for South Africa in today's match. Hope I can win today's match bet. Now let's see what happens in the last stage
This is a great achievement for the Australia women team. That they have won the match by a huge margin and also won the ODI series.  Their bowler has worked and struggled the most.  And with his hard work and struggle he stopped the runs and got the wickets and won the match and won the victory.The South African bowler also toiled and struggled and ended up with 9 wickets and a target of 277.  But they could not fulfill and will lose the match.And lost the series.My congratulations to Australia for the win and may they continue to play like this and win matches.South Africa needs more hard work and struggle.  Improve your team performance.

I am a little disappointed to be honest. This was the decided of the series and South African women should have done better in this match. Now I understand that Australian women had given a big total for South Africa and Australia women had played really well in the first innings. But South African women were literally unable to do anything in the second half of the match. They could do better in my opinion.  They were unable to form any kind of serious partnership, and that's why they have failed so terribly.

But I'm not too sure that Everton can stop Manchester city in tomorrow match because Manchester City is quite strong when playing at home. Maybe if Manchester City had managed to score goals more quickly, this match would have resulted in lots of goals. Of course Pep will field Erling Haaland and Kevin Bruyne from the early minutes because they don't want Everton to thwart their chance to return to the top of the standings.
Looking the current standings in Premier League seems little difficult for Everton can stop the winning trend of Manchester City, have been two months Everton not winning match in domestic league and their matches result dominance with losses and draw. Actually Everton still on difficult position after dropping to the relegation zone because 10 points deduction make Everton get under pressure how to stay in Premier League next season.
Pep Guardiola will field Erling Haaland and De Bruyne simultaneously in the early minutes, this will be a very difficult choice for Everton to get points against Manchester City today. Can't imagine how danger for the opponent team when both players play together in the first minutes and potential for Erling Haalaand opening his goals again in Premier League.

Everton is on the 18th position of the table if I recall correctly at they definitely do not have a single win in the last 5 matches. Meanwhile, they are going up against Manchester City. A team which has a perfect record in the last 5 matches. They have not lost or even dropped points in a single match.

So I do nothing there is any chance for Manchester City to be done in this match by a button unless something absolutely absurd happens. And to be realistic I don't think that is going to happen. Manchester City should be able to win this match without too many problems. I believe Manchester City will also keep a clean sheet in this match.

Dortmund vs SC Freiburg in today's match between two teams in Germany League, Dortmund team won the match by scoring 3 goals. SC Freiburg team did not score any goals in today's match. SC Freiburg team played well in the first half of the game but SC Freiburg team did not score any goals. Dortmund team player D  .Malen scored the 1st goal in 16 minutes.D.  Malen scored the 2nd goal at 45+7 minutes.D.  Malen performed very well in today's match.N.  Füllkrug scored the 3rd goal in the 87th minute to win the match.
Freiburg's performance in the last few matches has been quite bad so I am not surprised by this result and on the other hand, Dortmund is also in high motivation to win because of the competition at the top of the standings and also Dortmund's recent performance is a little better so this is Fair enough results.

Freiburg at the start of the season was good enough so they could be in the middle of the standings, but in 2024 their performance will be different, they have experienced a very significant decline in performance, now they have suffered 3 consecutive defeats.
Yes, it's true, lately Freiburg has shown a performance that is far from good, as a result they get successive defeats now, including defeat in this match. I am also not surprised by this result, because even before that Freiburg was not in a good condition.
We can see how Borussia Dortmund dominated the game from the first minute, they can immediately create a goal in the first 16 minutes to open the lead. before the first half ended they created another goal to double the victory. In the second half Freiburg tried better, but they could not develop their game and could not score, instead Borussia Dortmund could score again in the final minutes of the second half.

Dortmund was able to win the match pretty easily in the end. I actually thought that Dortmund might actually not be able to get 3 points from this match. But judging by the performance from their opponent in recent times I thought Dortmund would be able to win but it will not be an easy one. I thought they would probably get 3 points but will not be able to keep a clean sheet.  But in the end, the match was pretty easy for them and they were able to win with a score of 3 - 0. If they can keep this up they will get themselves into the top 3 very quickly.

Nissanka : Wow! A double centurion from Sri Lanka after what feels like an eternity. What a knock! Afghanistan bowling keeps going down the drain recently. Nabi is playing a gem of an innings both with the bat and ball.

On the other hand, Omarzai is supporting him very nicely. I still feel that Afghanistan will come slightly close and lose. Great fightback!

I was very surprised by Sri Lanka's batting today. This  team has collected 381 runs today. We have not seen such great batting from Sri Lankan players for a long time.

Pathum Nissanka remained unbeaten with 210 runs  off 139 balls. We  haven't seen such great batting in a long time. He batted very well. After giving such a big target, Sri Lanka had no chance of defeat. On the other hand, Afghanistan's top order batted very poorly. Afghanistan team lost 5 wickets for only 55 runs. However, Azmatullah Omarzai and Mohammad Nabi's responsible batting helped Afghanistan collect big. Omarzai was unbeaten on 142 off 113 balls. And Mohammad Nabi scored 136 runs off 130 balls. Afghanistan managed to collect 339 runs in 50 overs.

Well, Manchester city and Girona are being owned by same owners and it makes sense if the loan transfer between both clubs is seamless and smooth.
Couto and Dovbyk may even not want to return to their parent club after having more play time at a top tier club like Manchester city. The hope is that Manchester city qualifies ahead of Girona to return to the UCL, else, Girona may be the option to go the UCL next season with the kind of performance they have put in this season and according to the rules of the game.

I have a feeling (that is echoed by many other random internet strangers and publications) that if both of these clubs end up inside the Champions League next season, that there would be, first of all, a total transfer ban between them. And that is just the minimum, as UEFA will probably also force these clubs to make organizational changes to separate the two clubs from each other.

That's what happened with the Red Bull clubs a few years back.

I think that would be the right decision to make. Because I believe there should not be any unfair advantage for anyone. And with the situation that these two clubs are in right now, they can definitely exploit the loopholes in the rules. So it will be better if precautions are taken early by the authorities. Because if they can actually take any unfair advantage at this level of competition which is definitely one of the biggest in the world, it is going to raise a lot of questions and that is also not going to look good for the authority as well.

If I was Chandler, I would have accepted any other opponent. How long he is inactive already? Quite a period. He is not getting any younger, he has quite a family to feed at least. I dont know what Chandler is waiting for. For a biggest paycheck from a fight against Conor and to retire after? Imho Conor can do whatever he wants, Chandler mush fight at least to stay busy.

I agree, Michael Chandler should fight a money fight, now that he still has it on him because if he further this up time is up to the essence, and if father time gets him even the Conor McGregor fight will be a hard one for him, or should I say maybe because he doesn't get any fight because he is not risking his reputation because if he got lost when the Conor McGregor fight would come then his credibility to fight McGregor will be gone.



Damn dude, this was really a challenge to read your post. Use dots to separate thought next time.

Imho Chandler should not wait for a money fight, but rather have any fight. Since November 2022 he hanst fought. Lightweight is a very challenging division. If you make big pause, chances to return and win melt like snow in spring. It was stupid for Chandler to wait for Conor. First he waited when Conor recovers from injury, then USADA (btw anyone knows what is with testing today in UFC?), then TUF, then Conor had some plans (that movie with Gyllenhaal and countless parties and vacations). Now anyone fighter from top4 will beat Chandler (btw they already did that). Chandler must fight somebody and make it fast. In UFC, he only beat old Fergusson and Hooker. 2-3 in UFC since 2021. That record and achievement is nothing today.

Yes he has to definitely do better. And the thing is if he actually takes up an opponent which is really good, I dont think he will be able to beat him at this moment. Probably he should fight Conor McGregor because that makes the most sense right now. i think that will also be a good money fight for him and he will also have a chance to beat Conor  McGregor because we all know Conor McGregor is not very good right now.

 but the problem is Conor McGregor is really interested in making money. We all know about the movies and parties he is currently interested in. So maybe that fight might not end up happening.  But it is for sure that if he takes a fight in which his opponent is really good, he will be beaten.

I don't know why the new coach was not suitable for him to be honest. but I think his recent performance has played a part in it. there might be something personal as well I don't know. what I know is that he was clearly in a lot of pain in the last match of the semi finals.  he was actually playing well even with the forearm injury.  I believe he could have gone to the finals of the tournament if he did not have any injury and he was 100% okay

 Anyway let's talk about the coach, I think he will be able to find a new one quickly.  That should not be a big problem for a player like him. Undoubtedly, numerous personnel will express interest in the position.

Perhaps, perhaps... well, we can only speculate on who could become a new coach of Rune. Who's available atm from the big names? Toni Nadal? Mark Philippoussis? Dani Vallverdu? Or is Dani back to working with Grigor now? Perhaps some academy? Rafa Nadal Academy? Back to Mouratoglou? Any thoughts?

Actually, I don't have any good guesses about it, to be honest. And I am also not hearing anything about who is going to be the new coach of Rune. I literally have no news so I do not start any rumors as well.

But maybe whoever the new coach is, he will have a longer time with the players. I really did not expect the last coach to be already stepping down.

-.-

Thats exactly what I was thinking, there could be a personal element to this
especially the timing after that last match where Rune didnt bother to finish it
even though he was losing. Becker probably had words with him and Rune probably
threw a strop and ended the partnership, I could see him doing that.

Just watching an all French R16 match between Gaston and Humbert. I have a bet on
Humbert the favourite to win. Should make for an interesting match.

Earlier Machac was able to continue his good form to beat Musetti who was seeded 6.

Well, it is not impossible for them to have some disagreement after the player had to walk over the match because of injury. It is already frustrating as a player. And I also think it is somewhat equally frustrating as the coach as well.

So maybe they had some disagreement. Otherwise, this is definitely something that looks like happened out of the blue.
792  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tennis League All Thread on: February 07, 2024, 05:09:05 PM
That was a short collaboration. Rune and Boris Becker wanted to work together for a longer period of time. But now after 4 months, they have ended their collaboration and Boris Becker is no longer his coach. Very surprising. But it seems to be the case that Boris cannot look after Rune as it is necessary. So there was another coach, Severin Lüthi. But he has also end the work with him. Hopefully Rune will quickly find a coaching team that suits him better.

I don't know why the new coach was not suitable for him to be honest. but I think his recent performance has played a part in it. there might be something personal as well I don't know. what I know is that he was clearly in a lot of pain in the last match of the semi finals.  he was actually playing well even with the forearm injury.  I believe he could have gone to the finals of the tournament if he did not have any injury and he was 100% okay

The next challenge for De Rossi will definitely not be easy because Roma has not yet faced a strong team and when that time comes, I think that could be the right parameter to measure how strong Roma's performance will be under De Rossi's guidance. Talking about strong opponents for Roma, we can wait for this week's match because they will face Inter who are currently at the top of the standings and whether Roma is able to beat Inter, let's wait for the answer later. Smiley
After De Rossi's leadership produced a good match for Roma even though it was a team below him but I think De Rossi deserves credit for being able to win and not get a lot of problems at the beginning of his career with Roma.

Now the tough challenge for Roma is against Inter Milan even though playing at home I think we know Inter Milan is a strong team that was previously able to beat Juventus with a thin score, next week we have to see how with De Rossi's strategy by holding the draw it is good enough let alone win but the challenge will certainly be very heavy on his way.
From the start, many people questioned why Roma chose De Rossi as Mourinho's replacement and now everything has been answered with the winning trend that has not stopped for Roma since being handled by De Rossi. I don't know if this seems like a decline in quality in terms of the coach, but the development of this squad has increased significantly. De Rossi has a different strategy from Mourinho and his players can play more freely.

I will not expect more than a draw because Roma is good enough for now and that is a rational result that we can know. This victory can be achieved if Roma knows the gap in Inter's defense which is so strong and with the current Roma squad of course that can be done and at the same time it is difficult to do. Maybe I will see a different strategy from De Rossi in this match and he will keep the main players like Dybala and Lukaku as supersubs and focus on defense in the first half.

Don't think it is actually right to say that they have a 7 point of advantage. Because who knows!
Inter Might lose one.
But we cannot count on that. It is also possible that they will win and not lose.

So nothing is certain in this game. But Juventus will have to keep thinking about the worst case scenario and perform as well as they can. Of course, when a team has a lead on you, you cannot do much about it. You can only perform the best that you can and Hope for the best. And if they actually are performing the best that they can, I think they will be rewarded in the end.

determination this weekend. when Bayern Munich must travel to the current leaders Bayern Leverkusen. if Bayern Munich loses, it is possible that the title at the end of the season will be won by Leverkusen.
If the match ends in a draw the title race is still exciting. but if Bayern Munich wins it will be the strongest candidate for the German league champions again this season.
Leverkusen's confidence is now growing after defeating VFB yesterday and making this a situation that will definitely lift the motivation of Leverkusen in the match they will do later.
In addition, Xabi also does not want his 30-match unbeaten streak to be broken next week so at this time Leverkusen will definitely try their best to give their best performance in the match that will happen next week.

Leverkusen also in the match will play home, which of course this provides a good condition for Leverkusen because after all, the support of the fans will provide more strength because after all, with the support of supporters, Leverkusen will definitely be more enthusiastic in undergoing the match and the hope is clear that this can provide a high motivation in this case.
The hope is quite clear that 3 points are the main target but if it can't be then 1 point they still have to secure.

For some reason, I actually think Leverkusen is not going to go very hard for the win from the start of the match. I think they will try to play a balanced game at the start. And if they see that Bayern Munich are attacking a lot, they might try to get them lacking on the defense. You know that it is going to feel like a win for Leverkusen even if they get only one point from this match. And if they somehow can get three points, it is going to be even better.  Conversely, Bayern Munich will be eager to seek redemption and secure a triumphant three points, especially after their previous unsuccessful match against Leverkusen.

Real Madrid will meet Girona in the match next week. I think Madrid is still the favorite to win and I have also bet that Madrid will win the La Liga title this season. I think the match against Girona will be like the Inter vs Juventus match and the match will be won by the leaders. I predict that the match will be won by Madrid and will increase Girona's points. The next few matches will not provide much change because in my opinion, the match to determine first place and La Liga champions will be determined by next week's matches.
This is the right moment for Real Madrid to move further away. They need to win to make the gap wider. They should be able to, but as football is always unpredictable, there are still many possibilities.  At the start of last season Real Madrid were able to win. Even last September they scored 3 goals. The situation this time is a bit different because Real Madrid have problems regarding the main players who are injured.

By the way, it seems that Girona and Juventus cannot be equated because yes, basically Juventus is the top Serie A team, while Girona is not the top La Liga team . But yes, even so the proof is that Girona managed to become a team with very good quality because ya, Girona was able to compete strongly with Real Madrid is also certainly a great achievement for Girona this season. Because yes, at least Girona is only a mediocre team but in fact, Girona this season seems to be a top team that is difficult to beat. But indeed, about the match against Real Madrid, of course I also still fully believe that Real Madrid will win.

Real Madrid can win this match against Girona, Real Madrid will not have to worry about the La Liga points for a while. They will be able to create a pretty comfortable gap with the teams that are below them.

But at the same time if Girona can actually win this match, they will become the new leader of the La Liga table. I think both are possible. But Girona will surely not want to lose this one because then it goes them into a pretty interesting situation. First of all there will be a pretty big gap between them and Real Madrid and the gap between them and Barcelona might also decrease if Barcelona wins the next match as well. The matches important for both.  Real Madrid is definitely going to go for a win. But Girona might play it safe and go for a draw depending on the situation.

They do have a strong competitor, but Inter Milan is playing in its own league this season and now it becomes interesting to see whether they can play such a dominant role in the Champions League as well. Of course it won't be as dominant, but I think the performance that Inter is showing in a relatively strong league and how they are getting ahead of Juventus Turin is quite remarkable and in my opinion they will be one of the most favored teams in the Champions League if they can maintain their level.

I hope that no injuries will get in their way and if they can play with their best squad, there are not many teams that can compete with them. It is long ago that Inter Milan was a team that many other teams in Europe were afraid of.
Serie A cannot be an indicator of the team's level, because the championship is not that strong, and the confrontation with Juventus is not indicative. In fact, I think that Atletico can become an insurmountable obstacle for Inter, look at how they played in the last matches with Real, they are a very strong team.
And Juventus is not as strong as before, although Alegre is trying to achieve the maximum result from the squad that he has. Juventus need to strengthen their attack and this should be a priority for them, since Vlahovic's results are inconsistent, and it is obvious that he alone is not enough.

I actually think that Serie A is a good competition right now. And it can be a decent indicator of a team performing well or not, it can also indicate the power of the squad. Maybe in the last season I would have said otherwise. But in this season, I will say that the serie A competition is pretty competitive and it can actually be a good indicator of the team's performance.

But I do agree that juventus is not as strong as before. Definitely not as good as they were probably 3/4 years back. And they also have a lot of financial problems going on right now. That has made them more weaker. Not only Vlahovic, but the performance of the whole juventus team seems inconsistent most of the time. Even though they are performing pretty well this season, it is still hard to trust them completely.

The second day of the test match between New Zealand and South Africa ended and today we see a lot of things like Rachin Ravindra's double century and the bowling of New Zealand, how they picked four wickets of South African batsmen.

Mitchell Santner took a wicket and Matt Henry also picked a wicket, and the player who took 2 wickets was Kyle Jamieson and the best and most experienced player of New Zealand Tim Southee didn't take any wicket, we had very hopes with him but the new players make us happy by taking wickets and in today's bowling attack Tim Southee didn't do anything. In response to 500 runs by the NZ, the scorecard of 80 for four wickets down looks embarrassing for South Africa.

The South African batsmen should have batted very carefully and tried to stay at the crease. Because New Zealand has a huge collection. If the South African batsmen do not play well, the South African team will have to accept a shameful defeat.

We haven't seen better batting from South Africa's top order. Although Tim Southee did not get any wicket, the top three bowlers of the New Zealand squad, Jemieson, Henry and Santner bowled brilliantly. Their bowling was very controlled. So the South African batsmen are not able to stay at the crease for long. Looking forward to see how South African batsmen Bedingham and Petersen will bat in the first session tomorrow.

South Africa is playing right trash to be honest. Because the performance from them is not good at all. There is a big lead ahead of them and they are not being able to level. They have already lost four wickets for only 80 runs. I don't think they will actually be able to get anywhere near the total, 511 that was posted by their opponent. And there is a very big chance that they will have to play a  follow on innings. And that is definitely going to be a little frustrating for South Africa in my opinion. But of course they have the capability to make a comeback. first thing they will have to do is survive the first session of the next day.

Is anyone here in this thread watching Hong Kong Tri Series OD competition?

Today, one of Play off match finished in between two squads Hong Kong squad and Hong Kong A squad. Both these squad already eliminated from this competition and final match also finished already on crease which was played yesterday Malaysia squad against Canada squad. Hong Kong squad was started this match first batting inning by winning toss. If Hong Kong squad displayed today match performance in previous matches then Hong Kong squad obviously qualify for Final match but sadly this was not happen. Hong Kong squad collected 439 scores such a huge defeating target just lost of 2 wickets. Martin Coetzee only this batter wiped out at 18 scores and other three batters achieved full century on crease. Hong Kong A squad was unable to defeat this tremendous target and all overs ended just one delivery remained and also all batters wiped out.

I actually think that Hong Kong A did pretty well in this match. I did not think they will even cross 300. But even though they were unable to get anywhere near the target, they were able to score a lot of runs. Of course, this match was one-sided. But we saw some great performances in this match. I personally would have liked to see that the Hong Kong A squad also have similar kind of performance like the Hong Kong squad and try to build partnerships. Because that could have meant them getting incredible personal score as well. But I am also happy that they were actually trying to chase the target.

"Quantum computers can destroy bitcoin" I can say I have heard this since 2014 until now. I'm not a programmer and I don't know what's going on with quantum computers. But the funny thing is that more than 10 years have passed, I still haven't seen any impact of quantum computers on bitcoin, while bitcoin is increasingly popular and valuable. So, I thought, this is just a bullshit joke by bitcoin haters trying to spread to get bitcoin enthusiasts to give up on bitcoin.

So you should stop caring about that nonsense and focus on accumulating bitcoins, how many bitcoins do you already have that you have to worry about?

If your friend is fine with submitting AML/KYC documents, then Binance P2P is the GOAT. His/her bank doesn't even necessarily know that he/she's buying BTC because it's P2P.
Didn't Binance leave the Russian market last year, and removed the Rubles from its 'peer to binance and binance to peer' platform, i don't think Russian customers can still use Binance, but correct me if i am wrong.


In November last year, Binance announced to stop operations in Russia, but then CommEX acquired BInance's division and people can use CommEX instead of Binance. And removing RUB from P2P trading is not a big deal, people can use the RUB/USDT pair and then BTC/USDT to buy bitcoin.

If I were a newbie like the OP, I would consider using a centralized exchange instead of direct P2P, because there are a lot of scams and it is difficult to differentiate between real and scam. As a newbie, I can't make a profit yet so I don't want to lose money. Choosing top centralized exchanges is still safer.
