Yes, Barcelona will do everything possible to retain Gavi by increasing his salary for the good work he has done so far in Barcelona, despite the team did not achieve anything from this season. I think, Barcelona managements will still invite some talented players to join Gavi so that the team will perform well to achieve La Liga league title next season because Barcelona coach will not allow what happened this season to repeat itself again than to do everything possible to improve the team higher in next season.
He deserves a raise if he sees his last appearance with Barcelona. But many rumors have not yet reached out on the negotiations. Maybe it was intentional by Gavi if he wanted to leave. So far I think Xavi really needs Gavi.  He's a young central midfielder and has great technique. Maybe he can match the skills of Xavi or Inesta later. At the moment she is still with Busquet but later maybe she will be his bride. Busquets' age is old, maybe two-three more years he can leave from barcelona.
I also agree that he is a great player and I believe Barcelona should give him a race. It will be in the best interest of Barcelona if he stays on the team. I don't know if he will be able to reach the level of Iniesta or Xavi, but I think if he is given time he will be an asset for Barcelona. he is still really young so he has a lot of time to improve, Barcelona should keep him.

Gavi is a young and very promising player. He is only 17 years old. It is not right for Barcelona to sell a potential player like Gavi. He may become the star player of Barcelona in the coming days. Xavi is now the coach of Barcelona. I don't think he will make a foolish decision to sell Gavi. Xavi knows very well that Gavi has a golden future.

After the poor performance of the bowlers in the first two matches, the Indian bowlers are bowling very well. South Africa lost 7 wickets for 113 runs, now I see no chance of them winning. Chahal and Harshal Patal took 3 wickets each. Also, the bowling of Bhubaneswar Kumar and Axar Patel was very controlled. India is going to win today's match because of the great performance of the bowlers.
Indian bowlers have shown a better bowling skill today. Yuzvendra Chahal was an expensive bowler in the previous two games, but he has given only 20 runs today and took 3 important wickets. The openers had made a strong opening partnership as well. Whole Indian team deserves the credit for this win. Although India has the opportunity to win this series, but South Africa is more favourite in my view.

I want to say that India won this match because of the bowlers. Even after India's innings got off to a good start, they set a target of just 180. India would not have been able to win against South Africa's experienced batting lineup if the bowlers had not performed well. India still has the dream of winning the series by winning this match.

Zidane would suit PSG in my opinion, I don't think the situation is bad for him now and for the next few seasons.

PSG will dream of winning the Champions League again if they get a coach like Zidane. PSG has a lot of talented star players. But they do not have an experienced coach. As a result, their performance in the Champions League last season was poor. Zidane is suitable for PSG. But just for the money, Zidane will not take charge of any club where he has to follow Mbappe's direction.

Like you have just said Lewandowski is Barcelona's solution right now since they are lagging behind when it comes to having a good attacker.

I can't agree. The Barcelona forward is strong enough now. And last season we got proof of that. If Dembele can return to form, he will be able to play better. Depay and Aubameyang are very talented and experienced players. Fate is also a very promising player. Xavi already has a number of talented players. So even if Lewandowski is not included in the team, Barcelona will not be harmed.

LOL.. everything was going on nicely and suddenly we have a rain interruption. From what I have heard, rain was not forecasted for today. So hopefully everything will be alright in some time and no overs will be lost. I have to admit that Australia is on backfoot as of now. Both David Warner and Aaron Finch are gone, and now two out of form batsmen are at the crease (Marnus Labuschagne and Steven Smith). Wanindu Hasaranga is looking very threatening and as of now Sri Lanka has a higher chance of winning this match.
Although opener Warner returned to the dressing room with a duck, the rest of the batsmen in the squad performed very well.  Finch has scored 44, while Smith has played poorly in previous matches, but today he has scored 53 runs. Australia lost 5 wickets and scored 216 runs. They need 66 runs in 10 overs to win. Alex Carey and Glenn Maxwell are both very experienced players at the crease. Australia is still more likely to win.

Maxwell is playing very well, he has scored a half-century off just 35 balls. However, there is no experienced batsman at the crease to assist him. Ashton Agar is basically a bowler, good performance cannot be expected from him. Australia will lose this match if Maxwell is out now. At this moment, Australia needs 28 runs from 28 balls to win.

I was looking at the league table, and you are already starting to notice the teams that are likely to fight for the victory and the ones that are having a bad season.

It seems that this year Palmeiras, once again, will be the main candidate for victory. With Corinthians having a good season, and they will fight for the victory too.
I think a little more was expected from Atletico-MG, but the season is still at the beginning.
Flamengo, on the other hand, looks like it will have a more troubled season, already with 10 points of difference to the first place, they will need to reverse the situation if they don't want to lose the possibility of finishing in a good position.

Palmeiras and Corinthians are playing really well and they are obviously the main candidate for the win. They only have 1 point between themselves and it is going to be a close fight. Atletico-MG is not behind because the points are really close. So they have a chance to get ahead in multiple spots.

Australia during qualification matches was failed to showed impressive performance with finish at 3rd position on third round groups but at least they win from UEA and open their opportunity went to world cup but their opponent Peru is the favourite because both of teams have been met in 2018 on world cup group stage and Peru is the winner 2-0 and i think this match also will not so different that Peru will possibly win
Australia had to go through a flyover round to be able to compete in the first world cup against a fellow continent, namely the United Arab Emirates which they had already defeated.at which time Australia was a bit lucky because in that match they continued to be pressured by the UAE before Australia finally locked the win ahead of the second round. ended.and now Australia must focus on facing the second play-off from another confederation namely Peru where the Latin American team is currently performing so impressively where they were in the Russia world cup yesterday of course this will not be missed by Peru because their strength is much better than Australia

I think Australia is going to find it very hard to win against Peru. And obviously, right now it seems like Peru is a lot better team compared to Australia. I actually think Peru is going to use this opportunity to showcase their strength. It might not be a one-sided match but I believe it will be a convincing performance by Peru.

Pakistan won the match by 53 runs in the end by the DLS method and won the series 3-0. Shadab Khan was really great in this match.  I really thought west Indies could salvage something from this match but they failed to do so.
Shadab Khan made a difference in the match but when Akeal Hosein was in the crease, West Indies always had a possibility to win the match even though they lost 7 wickets as he was hitting the ball clean and was scoring at a high run rate and the odds which were in favor of Pakistan for the majority of the match started to change when he was in the crease till he was dismissed.

I was watching Akeal Hosein for the first time and they way he played he will be a prospect for West Indies in the future and he might get invitations from T20 franchise for his striking ability and he is a pretty decent spinner.

I thought West Indies had a really good chance of winning the match but they lost a lot of wickets really quickly and that certainly cost them. Pakistan had to work really hard to win this match and West Indies should take some positives from the last match.


Shadab Khan saved the match for Pakistan and they were able to win from a not-so-good position. I would say that West Indies had their chances in this match but they failed to capitalize on the moments.

Celebration for Pakistan for a series win and the special thing is that this was a home series which they white wash 3-0.  Smiley

Pakistan really won the series very easily but they had to work really hard to win the series and whitewash West Indies. West Indies really did well and almost won the match. But Pakistan played really well and Shadab Khan did really exceptionally to win the match.

Despite having the best players in the market, the French team is having difficulties in scoring points in this group. I can say that their opponents are really strong today, they have matches against Croatia. They had a draw before, today I think France will have a hard time getting three points. I guess there will be a more balanced match in Denmark - Austria, but I think Denmark can win this match.

The French team has a lot of star players, and everyone is very talented. Yet their team performance is very poor. In the UEFA Euro Championship, we saw the weak and irregular performance of France. They played very badly. So far, the performance of the French team is weak. They have drawn two of the last three matches and lost one. France has yet to win a match in the UEFA Nations League.

India should relay think about their bowling and I really think the captaincy needs to be a lot better. India was in a really good position to win this match but this can only happen because of bad captaincy. If we look at both matches we will see that India last because they did not capitalize on the chances that they had and they made the most mistakes in bowling.
The India has moved down in ICC ranking to number 4. The IPL has took so much of the Indian Cricket time. That series was so long and there were so many teams. The we almost lost track of what is happening around. I believe there is more money game involved than real cricket.

My guess was that the performance of Indian players would improve after the IPL. But after playing in the T20 format for 2 months, the performance of Indian players has not improved. Rather, their performance has deteriorated further. If this continues, we will see the poor performance of India in the next World Cup.

"The contract must be respected," said Bayern president Herbet Hainer.

"What would the club be like if a player decided to break his contract early?"

I don't know what the president of barca promised until lewandowski totally lost his mind. he plans to "go on strike and stop play" if he is not allowed to leave Bayern

I'm not a Bayern fan but seeing this I'm a little annoyed
Maybe there is something that makes him uncomfortable staying at Bayern Munich or something else that makes his determination to leave. But if the president of Bayern Munich but doesn't want to let Lewandowski go because of the contract he signed at the start he has to respect that. Unless Barcelona can make an offer that allows Bayern Munich to let him go. I think this goes back to the strategy of Bayern Munich to profit from the sale of Lewandowski.

Lewandowski is not interested in staying at Bayern Munich, while Bayern Munich's management does not want to leave Lewandowski now. They will do their utmost to keep Lewandowski in the team. But I don't think Barcelona will spend a lot of money on Lewandowski now. Because Barcelona is in financial crisis now. Players like Lewandowski will find it difficult for Barcelona to bear the brunt.

India lost the second match as well as the first T20. Indian players have been playing in the IPL for a long time, at the same time India is the host of this series. However, their performance in both the matches was poor. In the first match, India lost badly despite giving a huge target of 212 runs. In today's match, India has given a target of only 149 runs. Heinrich Klaasen's devastating 81 off 48 balls helped South Africa to win today. With three matches left in the series, India's chances of winning the series still exist.
It was meant to be as the target was low. South Africa now leading the 5 match T20 series with two victory. I believe that South Africa will win this series. India lost the first match for their poor bowling figure during the death overs. And they lost the match today as their batsmen failed to set a big target. Indian team should change their game plan. South Africa won the toss and decided to bat bowl first in both match. And they have chased the target without any difficulties. South Africa will do the same thing if they win the toss in next match.
Undoubtedly South Africa will win the series, India is really not able to find that winning combination. It's just struggling sometimes with it's batting and other times with it's bowling. Today they skittled for just 149 which too was lucky after fall of quick 6 wickets and in previous match their bowlers skittled. India is really no match in front of this south Africa team. I would be surprised if India wins this series from here.

India should relay think about their bowling and I really think the captaincy needs to be a lot better. India was in a really good position to win this match but this can only happen because of bad captaincy. If we look at both matches we will see that India last because they did not capitalize on the chances that they had and they made the most mistakes in bowling.

I think if we take a quick look at the finances of these two teams, we'll know the difference.
Barcelona had a tough season, their financial situation improved so slowly, without any achievements. The team's finances that did not improve were one of the factors in their declining performance, I think. I wish them a speedy return from a difficult situation.
I think that is not going to end anytime soon neither. We are going to keep seeing the same thing over and over again. It will take a while before we can see Barcelona be debtless, or at least reach to a point where it is not an important debt at all.
Like for example if they ever had 3 million euro debt, would they care? No, when they have 1 billion they would care? Yes. That means there is a number in between where they can have that much debt and be fine. It will take years before they could reach that as well, and the way they are not making any profit, it looks quite difficult for them to pay all of that debt back, and even not grow it because right now it is growing.

I don't see any option for Barcelona how they will be able to get out of that debt. They don't have very good players that can be sold for a huge amount of money and if they do sell them they will eventually have to play with really bad players, to be honest. So I think this problem will take a lot of time to get fixed.

Still they would have sign a capable player, one who can replace him when he is not playing and can also play with him when he is on the pitch,they are still good players out there,is not only Mbappe and haaland that are better in there position, Sadio Mane is in the market, Darwin Nunes is available, Lautaro Martinez, Dybala so many good players are still available so I think is ignorance to real Madrid not to bring in another star attacker because you never know Karim benzema might have an injury season not wishing him that though.
I think just because they had one deal, doesn't mean that they won't have any other neither. I feel like they are going to still look for a replacement to Benzema for sure.

However, Real is not the type of team that will be pressured into making a decision, they would rather move on with the same roster than make a pressured decision, we have seen this a million times before. They will find a player eventually and pay a good top money to get him, but until then, they will keep on looking. Benzema will be replaced for sure, there is no denying that, and it is going to be either this summer or next summer for sure, the only difference is that they are going to not rush into it.

Real Madrid is a club that is very forward-looking. So I think it's not like they could not sign the players that they wanted and now all their plans are destroyed. They obviously have backup plans for everything and I think even though Real Madrid could not sign mbappe, they will still be a very strong team in the next season.

West Indies scored 155 runs in 26 overs. West Indies need 115 runs in 21 overs to win. They need 5.6 runs per over. However, West Indies lost 6 valuable wickets. Keemo Paul and Akeal Hosein, who is at the crease, bat well enough, but there is no guarantee that they will be able to stay at the crease for long. Pakisthan is still the favorite to win the match.
Akeal Hosein is batting very well. He is still at the crease with 47 off 32 balls. However, I still think it is not possible for the West Indies to win this match. Pakistan bowlers are very experienced. On the other hand,  Apart from Akeal Hossain,I don't see any more experienced batsmen in the West Indies team at the moment, as they have already lost 7 wickets.

Pakistan won the match by 53 runs in the end by the DLS method and won the series 3-0. Shadab Khan was really great in this match.  I really thought west Indies could salvage something from this match but they failed to do so.

Norway is playing excellent again and is very close to beating Sweden. Erling Haaland scored 2 goals and provided 1 assist. Alexander Sörloth scored the other goal. Norway will retain the lead with this result. It's impossible to understand how Haaland manages to play so well in every game. Some players choose a match, he's good in every match. Some players show fluctuating graphics, even if he plays badly in every match, he scores and contributes. We can say that he is the clearest best goal scorer in the world right now.

It was honestly a great game and it is really good to see that Haaland is in form. I think this will eventually be good news for Manchester City because they really need him to be in good form. He has played really well and contributed a lot to win the match against Sweden. He is obviously a great goal scorer and when he will have a better team giving him better balls he is obviously going to score a lot more in my opinion. He is a really hard worker and I hope he will be able to stay fit for the whole season.

Shaheen Shah Afridi is a class apart from the rest. But pacers such as Haris Rauf and Hasan Ali are not far behind. And then there are promising youngsters such as Naseem Shah. For Muhammad Hasnain, his future will depend on how he is able to perform at the domestic circuit. Adjusting to the new bowling action is going to take a long time and therefore it is very important for him not to get disheartened. And at the same time, he needs plenty of support from the PCB, as well as from the senior players such as Shaheen.
Hasnain is just 22 years old and has played few T20I and ODIs from Pakistan. He has lot of cricket left. First he should try to get settled with his new action and that's possible only if he plays too much domestic cricket. PCB is not good in proving support to players that are not in playing 11.

I think this player Pakistan cricket board should think seriously because he can be a great asset for the Pakistan cricket team. It is important that he gets used to his new action and also maintains the pace and accuracy..

Bilateral cricket is about to fuck up in international cricket (rightly so, except test cricket), at least in the biggest market. According to some reliable journalists IPL media rights auction already crossed the base amount (it's only for A+B category) and it's kinda 2 days affair.
I read an article regarding this today, the battle between the richest people in the world for the IPL media rights to get the bragging rights and possible exposure for their media platforms, Mukesh Ambani and Jeff Bezos to battle for the bid and then there is Disney who is sending their top executives for the media rights and it is going to be a record breaking event as per experts in the article i read  Cheesy. Good time for the BCCI when there are battles for the media rights as they are the ultimate winners  Grin.
Yeah, apart from bragging rights /ego etc, now it came down  to owning prime time slots and ours drawing rooms.
It's not about cricket anymore, some might say it was never about cricket anyway, which i partially agree, thanks to Lalit modi. He was corrupt af but i've no hesitation to say that guy was visionary.

The problem is cricket has always been a place of revenue for all the people that are interested in cricket except for the fans. Even a lot of players also think of cricket as an easy way of money. And under these situations, cricket cannot prosper. Actually, when ICC itself is corrupt no one else cannot do anything.

Stokes wins the toss and opt to bowl, for straight 127 overs and 5 sessions  Undecided

No test playing skipper want this scenario. It's very demoralizing situation to look at considering fielders are not helping the bowlers either and keep dropping sitters every where. Daryl Mitchell is reaping the rewards, ofc.
It was such an easy catch, and when you drop such chances the price needs to be paid. As of now, Daryl Mitchell is inching towards his double ton, while New Zealand is also inching towards a total of 500. I don't know whether the New Zealand captain will allow Mitchell to complete his 200. The pitch is more supportive towards the batsmen when compared to the one with first test. IMO, they should try to get a total of around 550-600 before declaring. BTW, what happened to Matthew Potts? All of a sudden it looks as if he has run out of steam.

New Zealand lost their sixth wicket for 496 runs. Michael Bracewell returned to the dressing room with 49 runs. If Daryl Mitchell's wicket could be picked up then maybe New Zealand's innings will not be very long. However, New Zealand has already collected more than 510 runs. And such a large collection is enough to draw the match. There is no possibility of New Zealand losing this match if they do not perform very badly in the second innings.

If Lewa goes, it will be a very, very big loss for Bayern. It's really hard to find such a complicated striker. In my opinion, scoring over 20 goals every season is not for every man. It's really fun to watch it. I'm sorry he's leaving Bayern. At the press conference of the national team, he made this very clear that he is leaving. I don't know where he goes but I am sure that wherever he goes, he will smash that league too. I feel like he will go to Barça. This a big loss for Bundesliga too, of course. But I don't think he will be happy in Spain. His playing style is more suitable for Bundesliga or Premier League in my opinion.

The impact created by Lewa will be felt by Bayern, especially in those difficult moments when Bayern will be struggling to get a goal that he always shows up and scores, he will be missed but I think Bayern will get a good striker that will replace him made be a someone who scores like Lewa but truth be told you can't some one as fast as Lewa. I heard a rumor about Lewa joining the EPL team next season but am not too sure but I think he will do better in EPL if he is signed.

Robert Lewandowski is a big part of the success that Bayern Munich had, losing this player can surely cause some problems for Bayern Munich. He has also saved Bayern Munich from a difficult situation countless times. Losing the player can cause a lot of problems in Bayern Munich right now. So, I think it is not going to be a good decision to let him go if they don't have a really good replacement ready for him. But he really does not want to play in Bayern Munich.
