Rajasthan Royals batted first and scored 118 runs.
It's really disappointing performance for a team like Rajasthan Royals, Thier batting order collapse too badly against the Afghani two spinner Rashid and Noor. I think such a kind of low scoring and one sided match bored us. But anyway a round of applause for Gujrat for dominating such a strong batting team and continue his hold on the top of the IPL table.
I think in victory of Gujrat Pitch play an important role by providing help to spinner..
The disappointing moment is the unwanted runout of Jaiswal. Maybe he should've been more careful running against the midfield. Once after his wicket consecutive wicket fall happened. None were able to stand wicket and score runs against the spinners. At some critical situation Pooran is expected to perform, but he went to the pavilion unable to make a review as the team already lost both the reviews. Anyhow Gujarat Titans have confirmed the playoff entry. Rajasthan Royals were in compulsion to win every matches.

I think the Pakistan team are favorite to clean sweep the series with 5-0. Let's wait for the final ODI between the two teams.
I am also thinking this. Because the performance of Pakistan is looking very good. And Pakistan is looking more strong. In the previous post I predicted that Pakistan can make 300+ runs. And I was hoping that the Pakistan will win this match. And again I am thinking that the next match also will be in the favor of Pakistan. Because the batting line is strong but the bowling line is more strong than batting. Pakistan surprised again. Congratulations to Pakistan. Smiley
The batting line-up is really strong that every player is making runs. Earlier we used to see the Pakistan team depend on few players and in this series things have changed. New Zealand is under pressure to win atleast a match, but it looks like the last ODI to be a win for Pakistan. Finally the Pakistan spinner is able to take 4 wickets. Maybe Usama Mir can be trained to fill the spin bowling position as Pakistan lacks it.

As far as gambling is concern nobody is to be blamed in losses of an individual bettor take for instance if you play sports bet you know when choosing an odd nobody directs you on what to do first of all you consider to choose the team that is in their peak at the moment, when the fail to deliver are you to blame anybody when you know that you personally make your selection.
I get your point mate and the truth  be told that most times as a person,  there have been some cases that at some point, we tend to regret our losses and which we made another option rather than the very own that was chosen.
Whatever the case might be, mkst gamblers if not all already know that we are solely  responsible  for all our actions but there are cases when we wish we can blame anyone  for our losses.
Ofc nobody directs us or uses gun to make deposit on online casino but since everything especially online banking is one click away we can make quick decisions to chase big wins for entertainment. Some gamblers love to blame other people mostly close circle around him for losing big amount on online slots, I have seen such debats on live streaming platforms. We have to understand risks on casinos and never play with the amount we can't afford to lose as responsible gamblers.
It is common with gambling that we need to spend what we can afford to loss. When we gamble based on someone's suggestion and loss it hurts, in particular when the lost bet amount is high. I never exceed a bet amount of $10 when placing based on someone's suggestion. In specific those used to be just for fun with friends (going with their prediction).

I am not a gambling addict but some friends are making me look like one because I gamble less and they gamble more, it all started when we got into an argument that investing in Bitcoin is not the same as gambling, my friends who are gamblers, not full-time but more of a gambler than I am, are claiming that there is no difference between investing and gambling, they said if all you doing is investing money on Bitcoin you are no different to those who are gambling in a casino.

Whatever thing you overdo is bad and could lead you to addiction, let alone when it comes to gambling or trading, we really need to do it with deciplined mind, if we really want to be profitable. One should have rules, state or put down those rules and how to follow it, which should involve the total number of games one should play in a day/week , number of loses which you would have and consider taking a break in order to avoid excessive betting.
Agreed anything beyond limit gonna worsen the situation. For this reason it is good to set our limits and move accordingly. Rather than gambling less we should know when to take a break and when to concentrate on something else. People easily gets addicted when it comes to gambling, so we should have the learning along with our experience. Most of the gamblers get out of addiction after experiencing hard days out of it. Such scenario can be avoided going through the experience shared by different users.

Bangladesh Women's team have played the second ODI against Sri Lanka women's team. The match overs were reduced to 30 overs. Sri Lanka won the toss and chosen to bat first. In the 30 overs, Sri Lanka have scored 186/5 runs. Sri Lanka women's team had strong opening. Atapattu and Madavi played good and Bangladesh Women isn't strong enough to chase the target and ended the innings losing every wicket for 128 runs. Ranasinghe had five wicket haul and the team leads the ODI series 2-1.

The expected results have come favouring the Al-Nassr fans. Unexpected turn happened at the last moment of the match. Now the match of Al-Nassr against Al-khaleej gets importance, winning the match will level the points with Al-Ittihad. An opportunity got, but the pressure gets built as each and every match need to be won. The highest paid athlete have got a chance to prove his ability and make his team the champion. Lets see whether it is Al-Nassr, Al-Ittihad or Al-Shabab who are in close competence.

I was not happy with rain gods interfering in an important game yesterday, CSK bowlers did a good job in restricting LSG to 125 runs when the rain started pouring like cats & dogs. If the match had been played full then CSK would have been the number 2 team on the point table.

The second match a far better than the first one. Livingstone and Sharma were delivering what every IPL fan wanted to see. The second half was more interesting as we were again able to witness SKY doing what he does best. Rohit was unlucky but Kishan surprised me with his 75 runs in just 41 balls. It seems MI has been lately chasing very well.

The two weakest teams will be playing against each other today. They both are very inconsistent with batting and bowling, Harry Brooks had the fasted century this season but after that, he has been struggling. The only player worth watching today is Riku Singh.
I think this is the first rain interruption match in 2023 IPL season. Chennai could've got one more point, but the rain stopped it. Simply its a lucky day for LSG. The target is just 125 runs and surely Chennai Super Kings would've won the match. In recent days the low scoring targets weren't chased which also need to be considered.

The second match is interesting as both the teams were good enough to score big runs. It looks like an unlucky day, because over the last few matches SRH is performing good and the bowling used to be poor. The match against LSG is a proof. The match against CSK is won finally, inbetween SRH was to win easier. The competence is going high as the team in the 7th position and 2nd position have won five matches each after playing ten matches. Lets see who all gonna qualify for the playoff.

Pakistan cricket team won by 26 runs against New Zealand cricket team in the third match of ODI series. Pakistan cricket team confirmed the series by winning three consecutive matches in ODI series. This is a big success for Pakistan cricket team. In today's match, Fakhar Zaman, Rezwan failed to bat but Babar Azam and Imam Ul Haq performed well. Today's match was a spectacular one. Intoxicated by the victory, both the teams fought a breath-taking battle. I am very happy to enjoy this match

Two more matches remain, and Pakistan has won the series 3-0. After the debacle during the T20 series, the ODI series turned out to be a morale booster for Pakistan. Their top players seems to be in great form. Fakhar Zaman managed 180 in the second ODI, which took him to the record books. As far as bowling is concerned, Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah are doing well, with adequate support from Haris Rauf. Once again, concern regarding the spin department remains. Pakistan is still dependent on part-time spinners. They need to find a world class spinner capable of troubling batsmen.
As the Pacers were good Pakistan's spin bowling isn't much of a problem at the moment. As suggested, Pakistan needs to find right bowler as the World Cup is fast approaching. In the third ODI, everyone played well from Pakistan. New Zealand scored, but the team wasn't able to avoid the wicket fall. Anyhow the series is won and the boost could probably make this a whitewash series for New Zealand.

PBKS Vs MI
Punjab Super Kings is showing a very good performance, if Punjab Super Kings can finish two more overs like this then they will surely collect more than 200 runs. Mumbai Indians will definitely lose to this performance of Punjab Kings today. Both the teams are very strong, also in the points table, Punjab Kings have 10 points and Mumbai Indians have 8 points. Mumbai Indians must have a good fielding and bowling performance, otherwise it will be very difficult for Mumbai Indians to win the way Punjab Kings are accumulating runs. The pair of Livingstone and Jitesh Sharma survived the massive hits and till the last moment they were ready to hit four sixes to take their team to victory.
What an amazing match today, Punjab Kings score 214 against Mumbai Indians. This team is scoring 214 runs against Mumbai Indians in the 31st match as well. Such a big score against Mumbai Indians in both the matches can naturally be called a bowling failure of Mumbai Indians team. Mumbai Indians bowlers are being defeated by Punjab Kings batsmen. Livingstone and Jitesh Sharma's unbeaten innings gave Punjab Kings a big target. On the other hand, Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma has gone back to 0 runs. There is a lot of pressure in the team. The excitement is just beginning, let's see how the game turns in the end. Punjab Kings won by 13 runs in the last 31st match and now everyone is worried about what will happen in today's match.

Mi currently needs 16 from 16.  This is going to be easy for Mumbai Indians in the end. I did not think that the ending of this match was going to be like this. After all, the target was 215. That is a pretty huge target for any team in a t20 match. With six more wickets in hand, it is not going to be really hard for MI to actually win this match from here. They did really well to keep up with the run rate throughout the whole match. This has certainly been a very entertaining match so far.
Much needed win for Mumbai Indians and it happened with style. Rohit Sharma as usual reached the crease and walked back to the pavilion. It started with Ishan kishan and the same is continued by SuryaKumar. Further everyone contributed and made it an easy win. Reaching target of 214 runs isn't an easy thing, from the beginning overs Mumbai Indians kept the runrate and made use of few bowlers well to score big and reach the target. Bowling from SRH is completely disappointing.

Such an mindset is commonly seen around. Those are people who doesn't want to take risk and they prefer to be on the safer side. Such people need to experiment it, but they spread words as if like they've used it. Never make any statement positive, so whenever we come across person who is spreading negative about cryptocurrencies we should understand he had made some mistakes and lost. If not he wasn't able to hold it, which caused him loss. We need to understand what the reality and be part of it.
851  Economy / Economics / Re: Saving one third what you earn monthly is not that hard, isn't it ? on: May 03, 2023, 11:33:19 PM
saving is very important or mandatory for me, even though saving doesn't have to be a large amount of money every month. the average savings are always used in emergencies for people who are already married. who will care about us if we have a relationship borrowing money, friends, family I don't rely on it because it always damages communication. even if it's really an emergency if you don't get a loan. saving doesn't have to wait for old age but it's better to prevent it before it happens. saving doesn't have to be in a bank in crypto now it's easy and practical and start managing money regularly
Nowadays the methods for saving have also become very varied. We can save in the form of money, gold or crypto. And actually we have to adjust our type of savings with the goal of how long we will save it. If our savings are meant for old age then saving them in gold can be more effective. because it is more resistant to inflation and can maintain value from year to year. and it has proven very well. whereas if it's a type of savings for the short term. like there are things we want to buy. and even in a few months maybe we can reach our target amount of savings so in this condition we can save in fiat. because in the short term we don't have to worry about inflation. and it becomes easier for us to spend on the things we want. this also applies to emergency savings.
When it comes to savings, it is the basic of investment. These days we've got access to save in terms of cryptocurrency which also serves as an investment based on its volatility. We must first focus on making the budget that gives the best savings and then decide in what form. Further we should think of investment, when the amount reaches certain limit we should start investing and increase the income sources. This is the best way through which earning can be made in a better way.

I am very concerned about going into business with anyone no matter who the person is. So far because of the clearly stated reason. There must be a binding agreement duly signed by both parties, a Judge and in the presence of a witness or witnesses from both sides.
Whether it is a friend or someone who is known through some source, it is a must to make agreement and start the business. In most of the cases it is possible to see friends ending up the strong relationship after starting businesses. When it comes to money everything gets disturbed.

Bitcoin was top most crypto currency hold by most of he traders.When the selling price is not suitable for the investor,hold the coin till the good price for the Pr achieved.The foremost demands of the Bitcoin profit to the traders.It help the youth by paying their fee using the trading profits of the Bitcoin.From the form itself,youngsters earning good money.
Bitcoin makes the youth self reliant than depending for their living and the needs. This is really good in one form, but there are chances of the young generation moving into the wrong path. So, along with the earning they should also have the social responsibility. If that's possible then for sure the youth will be the great benefactors out of bitcoin.
854  Economy / Economics / Re: Without government job we can survive on: May 01, 2023, 05:18:36 PM
You make a valid point that waiting for the government to provide employment opportunities can be unrealistic at times. It's great to hear that you took the initiative to start your own business and create job opportunities for others. This not only benefits yourself but also contributes to the growth of the economy.

Yes, I too think that when people start new businesses apart from the existing ones, they contribute to the growth of the economy, and for that we should be thankful to them. Not everyone has the ability to open a business of their own. And many others, those who have the funds, don't want to do it because it's too risky. So, although I don't have a business of my own myself, I admire those people who do. Economic growth is a necessity, and people who contribute to it deserve respect.
The best thing about the participation of private ventures to provide job opportunity is the responsibility and the maintenance. The services will be offered at an additional pay compared to the public sector. This is the scenario in the third world countries. Businesses always contribute to the economy, but the government's focus will be to grow specific private firms. This is kinda eating the public money and the private ventures profiting out of it.
855  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Indian Premier League #IPL on: May 01, 2023, 04:52:48 PM
The 43rd Match of Indian Premier League has already started today. Lucknow Super Giants vs Royal Challengers Bangalore these two teams came to the field to play. Royal Challengers Bangalore came to bat and scored 93 runs in 15.2 overs. So far Royal Challengers Bangalore have lost 4 wickets.  The game is stopped due to rain. It seems that the game will resume when the rain ends. Lucknow Super Giants team's bowling has put Royal Challengers Bangalore team's batsmen under a lot of pressure.
Whether it is due to the rain or is it the real game of RCB. The first wicket fell at 62 runs and the second wicket fell at 75 runs. Further the team score reached 126 losing 9 wickets in 20 overs. What a worst performance from the RCB team. It is supposed to be an easy win for Lucknow Super Giants, but LSG too struggling as they were able to score just 27 runs in 5 overs losing 3 wickets.
856  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: ODI cricket and general cricketing discussion [self - mod] on: April 30, 2023, 10:41:39 PM
The Pakistani team played well in the first two matches of the T20 series. And they won. After winning the first two matches, the Pakistan team could not win the series. One month was abandoned and they lost the remaining two matches. But Pakistan is still very strong in the ODI format. But I would say that the performance of their bowlers is good. Pakistan won both matches only because of the good performance of three batsmen. Babar Azam, opener Fakhar Zaman, and Mohammad Rizwan have performed brilliantly in all three matches. If these three players don't perform well in any match I am sure the Pakistan team will face a bad batting disaster and lose. Pakistan should now think about how to strengthen their bowling line-up.

In last year Pakistan has won only one home series and that is ODI series against Australia last year. Since then all series played in country are either draw or lost by Pakistan. Pakistan was even not able to win T20 series against second tier new zealand team. This is a great opportunity to break there losing streak and win series. 3 more ODIs still to be played and Pakistan need to win just one to grab the series. Seeing the performance of Pakistan its difficult to predict outcome of this series.
It shows the ability of Pakistan batting well in the ODI matches. This win really matters and helps the team improve and place the players at the right position before the ODI world cup scheduled for the year. Both the matches were really good and there is combined efforts from the teams. However it was Fakhar Zaman who made Pakistan win the matches. This is really good that when someone fails the other player performing and recover the team. Same time this shouldn't turn to be dependence over the particular player.

Bangladesh women's team is on a tour to Sri Lanka playing 3 ODI & 3 T20 Matches. The first ODI ended without result as rain abandoned the match. Sri Lanka Women team started the innings and scored 152/6(36.4 overs). Rain interrupted and the match came to an end. Tomorrow the second ODI gonna be played and these matches are really important for the teams to improve their performance. More women's team are getting into cricket and we were able to see good list of women's cricket being played everyday apart from the top teams.

Ronaldo will carry the this league with Al-Nassr, it's possible they can still lift the title. But Let's wait till the end of the season, Ronaldo is Making wave in the league with 12 goals. This is amazing, he's the goat and he's dedicated to lift his first trophy in the Saudi Arabia league.

There are still 6 matches left for Al Ittihad, while Al Nassr only has 5 matches left. In terms of points, the two teams are only 3 points apart. but Al ittihad still have one game left, if they win it. that means, Al Ittihad has the potential to widen the points distance from Al Nassr. but, maybe the opposite happened. Al Ittihad slipped in the remaining few matches, especially when they had an away match at King Fahd Stadium, Al Hilal's headquarters. in fact, I'm sure Al Ittihad will lose points in this fight. but that's not enough, it means that Al Ittihad must slip at least in the two remaining matches.

Meanwhile, Ronaldo and his colleagues must win the remaining 5 matches. it's just that, of the 5 teams that became his opponent, the team that was difficult for Al Nassr to overthrow was Al Shabab. even so, I don't think Al Nassr will win the League trophy. considering, Al Ittihad has a higher probability of winning the league trophy. So far, Al Ittihad has only experienced 1 defeat, and even then it lost to Al Hilal.
Must win itself pressure for the Al-Nassr team. Another pressure is the participation of Ronaldo, which have hyped the team as well as the entire league. The point difference is very narrow, in between Al-Nassr lost and draw few matches which were completely unexpected. Even now one can say Al-Ittihad will win more matches than Al-Nassr, but we can't be sure of Al-Nassr team performance. Coming Wednesday Al-Ittihad have got its match against Al-Taawoun which is already in favour of Al-Ittihad. For Al-Nassr the match is against Al-Khaleej which is supposed to be competing.

Atleast for the sake of my family I prefer doing the civil servant job. If I'm single I could've opted for the cryptocurrency trading, because I can manage with what I've earned for the day. When we've got dependents it is really hard and certain scenario can't be managed easily. Somehow I'll try to spend good time on trading as it gives me additional earning access based on my understanding about the market. Every day we can't expect it to be successful day in trading.

I am also regularly choosing the team in this pool and my performance is around 50%. Some of the matches I predicted correctly while some go against my prediction. I am currently at number 4  on Leaderboard with 22 points.
Don't regret. There are people who are doing even worst than you.

No win so far from this round yet. If RR wins then I may have a point today. But looking at the trend, four loss out of four finished match and the way Mumbai Indian's are batting, I think I will not earn any point from this match too LOL

After a long time I am actually watching cricket. Watched Liverpool vs Tottenham and then changed the channel to watch IPL and it's hard to switch it off now.
I'm the one to join along with you, not having a single point so far in the 5th round. Today I believed somehow I'll get few points. Finally in both the matches the results were completely upside down. Chennai lost the match at the last ball and Mumbai players gave an unexpected performance winning against Rajasthan Royals chasing 212 runs. Already 5 matches of the 5th round over. More five matches left for us to make few points from the 5th round.
