A memorable season for the RCB. Despite playing poor cricket, they reached Eliminator 2. Uncapped players saved the day with life-saving contributions, while the big guns misfired with the bat. Newly acquired players saved the day when their retained players flopped. While the RCB bowling attack is decent this time, there are some issues that need to be addressed. Mohammed Siraj's bowling damages their decent bowling attack a lot in playoffs also Kholi fails to perform. Both were gifts from opposing teams. While Buttler completely humiliated the RCB bowling attack, RR made it to the final.

Kohli is a complete mis fit whether it's Indian national squad or IPL. His performance for last 2 to 3 years is continuously on decline and its high time for BCCI to decide whether they will continue with kohli or give some chance to new talent. RCB overall performance in IPL is satisfactory they were 30 to 40 runs short in there last match and that's what caused them the match.

Well... that is a startling statistic. Half of the playing XI getting dismissed before scoring any runs is catastrophic for any team. And it was completely unexpected, given the fact that the pitch at Mirpur was favoring the batsmen. And it is the same pitch where the Lankans made a 500 plus total in their first innings. Apart from Shakib's half century in the second innings, none of the other Bangladeshi batsmen (apart from Litton and Mushfiqur) made a score of more than 20 in either of the innings. It was a very meek surrender.

Mushfiqur Rahim and Litton Das centuries in first inning saved Bangladesh, other then that performance of Bangladesh batting in both innings is same. Srilanka will  be happy to grab a victory here. As is was very much expected that match will end in a draw but it was a comfortable victory for SL in the end.

I am not very comfortable with the idea of giving automatic qualification for 80% of the teams. Well, the ICC will argue that top 8 teams will qualify based on ODI ranking, but it is not that simple because the associate nations (not even new test nations such as Afghanistan and Ireland) get to pay any ODIs against the full members. IMO, apart from the hosts, all other countries must go through a qualifier tournament, similar to the case with any other sports. If someone refuses to play qualifiers, then that team must be kicked out of the world cup.

Other sports like football have qualifiers for every temp since the whole world is participating in fifa WC. While cricket is just a game of 6 to 8 counties. The associate teams haven't taken this game seriously, so there is no point of having qualifier for 8 teams. Increase number of countries first

One thing I don't know about Rajasthan Royals is that they persist with non-performing players without any logic. The perfect example is that of Riyan Parag. No one knows why he is in the team. He has scored a total of 168 runs in 16 matches at an average of 16.80. And he has bowled a total of 4 overs, conceding 59 runs, while taking one wicket (economy rate of 14.75 runs per over). On top of that, he has behaved like a monkey on the field, abusing the opponent players. And yesterday also, he dropped some easy catches.

That's the beauty of team, if team is performing good then underperforming players are also covered and no one noticed that. RCB kept Kohli despite the fact he was a complete failure because team itself was performing too good. If RR wins the title tomorrow who will remember performance of Parag.

Proxy war has always been going on in both the countries and you can't say that only India has suffered the loss. Pakistan also huge terrorist attacks have been carried out by India.
Moreover, India trying hard to destroy Pakistan cricket, and it is on record that galbushan yadav was the mastermind behind many terror attacks (And the attack on Sri Lankan team was one of them)

India can bear any financial loss as long as it hurts PCB. BCCI is richest board and can easily digest losses incurred by not touring Pakistan, But PCB is not in a position to bear any financial loss. Role of ICC is very important in this case, but sadly its no where seen. I remember in 90s, ICC still have some say but these days its just a symbolic authority.

Lucknow Super Giant VS Royal Challengers Bengaluru

Which team would you choose between Lucknow and Bangalore today? Today my guess is that Lucknow will win. And we'll see the finals of two new teams. I say this because the Bangalore team is strong but the performance of their players is not consistent. However, in the previous match of Lucknow, they lost by a huge margin against Bangalore. Bangalore gave a target of 182 runs and Lucknow scored only 163 runs. My hope is that Lucknow will be able to avenge today's defeat.

I will go with Lucknow though RCB are equally good. It will be interested to see how Kohli play in his first play off, so far kohli has drastic tournament. RCB haven't won any IPL till date, they will be more desperate to win this IPL. Lucknow on the other hand is more consistent, apart from Quinton de Kock they dont have any big name in there squad that's why all of there players are contributing.

In recent days whenever I get into gambling I used to experience some changes in my body. Particularly stomach pain and I myself found the difference while gambling and not gambling.

Stress and anxiety are also one reason of stomach upset. AFAIK, gambling is all about stress and anxiety. I remember when I use to gamble I have sleepless night and day was full of anxiety. I tried medication but nothing went my way. I got rid of these problems only when I left gambling. Now I just read stories about how people are losing money and getting problems with gambling.

Sri lanka vs Bangladesh

The match between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka is being delayed due to rain. Sri Lanka lost 4 wickets for 210 runs. The crease now includes Angelo Mathews and Dhananjaya de Silva. Two good enough batsmen. Sri Lanka will probably bat till the first session tomorrow. And like the first match, this match will be a draw. If the match was not delayed due to rain, there was a possibility of seeing a result of the match.

Srilanka trailing by 97 runs and 18 over still left in today's play. Srilanka will level Bangladesh first innings quite easily not sure whether they will take any lead or not. Angelo is still on the crease with 54 runs in his account. Most probably this match will end in a draw or if Bangladesh batting collapsed just like it collapsed in first innings, who knows SL may get a victory here.

Don't think he is going to be as effective from the start but once he gets used to his new bowling action I am expecting good things from him. And I really believe that he had some really good potential and I hope that this certain problem does not take the potential away from him at all.

First it will be interesting to see whether he is cleared with his new action or not. Till date I don't remember any success story of fast bowler that came with corrected bowling action. Hasnain has not played much international cricket so far only 8 ODIs and 18 T20I, he was quick with his old action let's see whether he maintained that quickness with new action.

Rajasthan Royals batted first and managed 188 runs.Can Gujarat chess this run?Samson and Buttler played really well today match.One other hand Rashid khan did bowl as sell, he was just outstanding. Gujarat Titans need to solid start for chess. I hope this match will be more interesting. And i think both team can be win this match cz this is T-20 anything can possible in T-20 match.

The match till now is very much balanced, GT are sightly ahead as they have lost just one wicket so far. GT need 118 runs on 75 balls at the moment with 8 wickets in hands. Jos Buttler and Sanju are the only who helped RR in making 188 runs, otherwise RR would have been collapsed at 120 to 140.

I guess Srinath was the only bowler back then who could bowl at speeds of greater than 90 mph. Others such as Prasad and Mohanty struggled even to reach the 80 mph mark. But in terms of attitude, all of them were known to be mild natured. Even the generation of pace bowlers who came after the Srinath-Prasad era, such as Zaheer Khan maintained this reputation. Sreesanth was an exception, and he went overboard at times. And that was the reason why his own team members went against him. Kohli even gave him a nickname of "Appam Chutiya".

Sreesanth despite his casual attitude manages to play 27 test and 53 ODIs for India, I still remember the drama HD created in King's 11 Punjab match. In 90s cricket was game of gentlemen and there were scores of decent players like Srinath and Prasad.

BCCI never signed any MOU documents after Mumbai terror attack and i can't blame them for that, you can't expect any favor after butchering innocent people in Financial city of India. Although both boards did try to calm things down after 2013-14 and bilateral series was looking real deal but then Pathankot happened and all 2-3 efforts went down the drain overnight, as everybody knows public sentiments already were not favorable at all due to continuous cross border terrorism.  

Pakistan in 2012/13 toured India https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/pakistan-tour-of-india-2012-13-589300/match-results and played 3 ODIs and 2 T20Is. Since it was financially in favour of India so Mumbai and Pathankot incidents were set aside. But when India was required to tour back they recalled Mumbai and Pathankot. India has taken full advantage of Mumbia attacks in establishing its narrative worldwide (they planned it very well) while Pakistan is the one who suffered this incident - Pakistan government spokesman said years back.

During the seventh over Bangladesh lost its 5th wicket scoring just 24 runs. From that such a big score and the partnership is well maintained. Mushfiqur Rahim and Litton Das managed the situation well and they have played real test cricket. When there is continued fall of wickets players try to score as much possible believing that the pitch is supportive to bowling. End of the day Bangladesh have dominated the match with the increase in the winning probability.

What a recovery, 5/24 and then 253 runs partnership that has placed Bangladesh in very good position in this test match. Srilanka started well but wasn't able to capitalise the initial advantage they got. Litton Das 88 runs in last match and century again, he is having a good series.

Sunrisers Hyderabad VS Panjab Kings
Punjab will get an easy victory with the target of only 158 runs given by Hyderabad. Punjab scored 103 runs in 11 overs. They lost three wickets. Punjab needs 55 runs from 54 balls to win. Despite the good performances of Abhishek and Rahul, Hyderabad gave a target of only 156 runs due to the poor performance of the middle order. However, neither team has a chance to qualify for the playoffs.

Finally the group stage is over and it's stretched too much. They could have completed first stage quickly but the management preferred for one match per day. The final match was not important for anyone since we have already 4 teams for playoffs. SRH lost the path when they took it easy n lost 5 consecutive matches.

CATA has also introduced the concept of decentralized database which is different then traditional databases used till date. CATA has introduced the concept of HDFS and Hadoop in designing its distributed system. The solution proposed in there paper is not implemented till date and it will be the first project to implement such thing.

Xcavator is delighted to announce that their IEO is confirmed on Coinsbit.io along with the listing. And the IEO sale will start on 18th May 2022.


Stats of Coinsbit are extraordinary. In 24hrs it has volume of around 1.5 billion USD, according to CMC . I think its a good idea to have your IEO on such exchnage if you are not getting chance on binance. I don't know whether IEOs are hot topics these days or not, in 2018/19 IEOs were more in business.

Pandemic is still the biggest obstacle that makes many businesses stop, I used to open a small restaurant that could produce profit and pay 4 employees, but when in 2020 which made many social restrictions made me have to close my restaurant and now try to open again but almost 3 months still loses.

Tough time are no doubt difficult but they also bring with them possibilities and opportunities. Before pandemic, home delivery or take away are not that much popular. During covid, restaurant owners opened there kitchen and started home delivery. Even grocery stores kept there business running through home delivery. I know its difficult but we have an opportunity.

After defeating Chennai Super Kings by 5 wickets, RR moved into second place. It was the end of a disastrous season for MS Dhoni's team, which had suffered a spate of defeats throughout the competition. With only four wins, the defending champs finished ninth.
Rajasthan dominated the game with both the bat and the ball. Ravichandran Ashwin hammered 40 for 23 to lead his side to victory. Yashasvi Jaiswal 59 for 44. On the 24th of May, RR will play Gujarat Titans, the league's top team.

CSK tried a different captain this time and that experiment failed miserably. Dohni was given captaincy when CSK was already out from the tournament, so dohni as captain can't do much. Its now competition between DC and RCB, win in last match will take DC to next round since they have better run rate.
1079  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: May 20, 2022, 05:07:17 PM
Rajasthan Royals scored 37 runs in 4 overs. Rajasthan needs 114 runs from 96 balls to win. Experienced enough of a batsman from Rajasthan. It is very difficult to win against Rajasthan with a target of only 151 runs. In this match, I bet on the victory of Rajasthan. It is hoped that Rajasthan will easily defeat Chennai today.

The match is in very interesting phase. RR need 60 runs of 42 balls, Yashasvi Jaiswal is the only successful RR batsmen so far. If CSK can get rid of Yashasvi Jaiswal in one of two overs then it will be possible for csk to win the game otherwise its over for csk.

This test series for me is really a waste of time. Since it was planned earlier that is why it is being played now otherwise I do not think the Srilankan cricket board has the funds to even host a series in their own country. I also do not consider Bangladesh to be a better side than Srilanka. Bangladesh being able to draw the first test with the Srilankan team shows how much the Srilankan team is affected by the current situation in their country.

If Srilanka can't host a series at the moment then ICC along with other boards must help Srilanka to host series inland or some other country. Its really a time of crisis for Srilankan cricket and ICC must not left Srilanka alone in this crisis. Right not the series is in Bangladesh and Bangladesh is taking full advantage of that.
