The last few overs were totally unexpected. When Kohli supposed to take charge and Jadeja to assist, the Jadeja took the charge and after Kohli got out Jadeja was supposed to take charge but Shardul did it. That was totally unexpected from Shardul.
I saw the beginning of the match and West Indies was really going at a slow pace and i thought they would loose the match with they way they were going and when i saw that West Indies were able to score 315 runs i was really impressed as i never expected a score like that when i saw the scoreboard, i was not able to see the entire match but when India started with a century opening partnership i thought they would chase the score easily and by the looks of it they kept the momentum going even after loosing the wicket of Kohli and another series win for India.

I would like to see whether India could continue the same kind of performance abroad because even Bangladesh could defeat India in one match but they perform well when the series is on the line and if they could do the same abroad is my big question.

We have a fight night in South Korea and the surprise for me is Frankie Edgar taking the fight against Chan Sung Jung aka Korean Zombie in a short period and hence it is really difficult to understand how much Frankie is prepared for this fight without a full camp but i would always like to pick Frankie Edgar because of his experience and his talent inside the ring and even at  this age he is able to pose a challenge to any contender in the division and i am picking Edgar to win . My picks are, Edgar, Aleksandar Rakić, Mike Rodriguez, Liu Pingyuan

I think the reason Sheldon Cottrell got a huge value is simply because of his personality in the ground where he gives a salute with every dismissal 
If you start getting selected because of your personality then it will be a hard thing for the viewers as all the players will start their own character like we see in the UFC which is replicating the fake Wwe. I like seeing personalities in the cricket field, Andre Nell was a character as well as all the Aussie players who could have a verbal spar against their opponents in the field but if you incentive players for their character then it will create a huge problem.

There is a difference to be honest,if a match is sliding from the hands of team Kohli seems giving up most of the time but Dhoni keep the things as long as possible and will let the match get dragged until the last ball and he got most success as well but thing is anyone can be same as other and Kohli is also good and better as player if years passes he will get more tactics to handle match pressure as Dhoni.
I completely agree with this analogy as kohli is an aggressive player and who likes to take on challenges and he is the best player when chasing a total but you cannot compare him with one of the best captain in the world Dhoni, Taylor, Steve Waugh, Ponting and Clive Lloyd, Kohli is the captain of  Royal Challengers and he is yet to make any astonishing performance as a captain while the team Dhoni is leading has won the IPL most of the time and that comparison alone will make anyone understand the impact Dhoni has on any team, so i will not compare anyone with Dhoni as a player or as a captain.

They are about to change their name to sponsorbet.io soon Cheesy lol. I mean not only they are actually making a profit, they are putting the name of bitcoin out there, everyone is getting the name bitcoin heard all around the world.
I am not sure how much profit they are making after sponsoring all these teams because i am sure they are spending a lot of money sponsoring them and there is no idea how much exposure they make are converting into profit and we will only know about that when they release the clear picture about it.

I personally managed to meet with just 2 people myself who didn't know about bitcoin at all but saw the name sportsbet.io and they got into bitcoin thanks to sportsbet.io . However if they continue like this I feel like not only in bitcoin world but they will become the biggest sportsbet of all over the world.
It is a good story for you to convince a couple of blokes to enter bitcoin by seeing the sportsbet advertisement. If they are able to sponsor for a long time it will be beneficial for the business and for bitcoin in the long run.

I guess Pak team will not be able to claim 300+ runs as lead unless someone who hit 150+ or something near because when their middle order tested so many times they failed to do that,SL has pretty good bowling compared to Pak only good thing for Pak will be SL is the one who has to play last innings which might start spinning more and give too many wickets in no time.
There is three more days for this test and Pakistan started well in the second innings and if they are able to build partnership then they will have a fighting chance to have some authority in the match as Pakistan is struggling and the local media is against them and the amount of pressure they are having to perform to save their face is really high and i hope they will bat well in the second innings considering the pressure the team is under.
2027  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Scammers are smart as well. on: December 20, 2019, 06:26:17 PM
Scammers don't have to give huge promises anymore, believe me they are among us and they know how smart investors have become too, they always reshape their tactics, now projects don't have to give too good offers because they know people are aware that too good to be real offers are scam, honestly scammers are not idiots
These things can be sorted out easily, if the investors understand the risk when you invest in a raw project who promises something different but no guarantee how that can be achieved or whether that can be achieved then the investors will think twice about investing in the project simply because of the risk involved and unless there is strict regulation and transparency i hope the investors stay away from these projects and then the scammers will die off from this market altogether.

People keep saying good projects always have good team and brilliant ideas to solve crypto issues, who tell you that scammers can't deliver all this?
I see that you are advertising some project, have you done the research about it Tongue.
2028  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are the world’s governments not using cryptocurrencies? on: December 20, 2019, 05:40:59 PM
The thread have some funny answers  Cheesy.

For short, the government isn't really capable of handling modern technology and will just ruin their personal desires in the nation. I already expected that the technology will just be fair enough to the people and will bring disadvantages to the government personnel.
It is not about a government cannot handle modern technology, if you are talking about third world countries then you might be right, but there are countries that are wealthy enough to handle any technology and i doubt why everyone is expecting any country to accept a decentralized currency and it is not happening as the government likes to have full control about their economy and none of the government will use a decentralized currency but the choice on individual usage must be given to everyone and that is what i am expecting from the government to come up with rules and regulation.

Cricket is now one of the premier career options in India. Three decades ago, even the national team members used to work part time. But now, the domestic cricketers get a package that allows them to concentrate on cricket full time. The fixed salary for a domestic match distributed by the BCCI is ₹35,000 (around $500) per match day. That means that the domestic cricketers get around ₹140,000 ($2,000) for a single Ranji trophy (4-day) match. And don't forget the fact that there are a total of 38 domestic first class teams in India, which means that somewhere around 500 individuals can be considered as professional cricketers in India.
This is a really cool career option and if you can get into a team then we can make a lot of money and $2000 per four day match is a huge salary for domestic matches and i am not sure how much the rest of the world pays their domestic players but if you play 30 odd matches per year then you have a decent pay scale even in developed countries and i guess it is a great pay scale than the average salary a professional gets.
2031  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Venezuela & The Bitcoin on: December 20, 2019, 02:06:57 PM
I live in Venezuela and I can talk properly about what's going on in my country, more importantly, I belong to an organization that is putting the skin in the game trying to promote Bitcoin in my country.

Bitcoin is undoubtedly a method of payment that is becoming increasingly popular in Venezuela, all thanks to the legal framework that the government is trying to create, and you know what's best we don't give a damn.
Good to hear from a person who actually live in Venezuela, all the news i hear is from the media or some half ass hear say from those media and it is good to hear who is living and see your perspective of things who know much better than anyone in this forum, good to hear that you have a team who is promoting bitcoin to the general masses who are not aware of it and hopefully the government will create a legal framework and help the citizens recover from the situation you are going through.

Peace bud.
2032  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How long do you hold on a trade. on: December 20, 2019, 11:36:49 AM
actually logic is only one for you to profit in trading "don't sell at low prices".. when the assets you buy go down, hold on until the price goes up,
don't mind the time, because that could be the next 2 to 5 years (increase in the value of your assets).  This is just my suggestion because until now I still HODL some crypto assets which decrease in value right now.
The problem here is that majority of the tokens have gone down when the bear market started and majority of the projects went offline and probably will not return and that is the biggest hurdle when it comes to HODL in the long term of uncertain projects, i would support full on holding the real assets as the possibility to rise in the future is high but that is not the case with token projects, the investors who were able to sell off at the right time even without much profit made the right decision in my opinion.
2033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod] on: December 20, 2019, 06:03:10 AM
Pakistan is making a comeback in the match and they have clinched 5 wickets of SL team for just score of 80. SL still trail by 111 runs and this means that quite possible that Pakistan can take a lead in first innings. Match is now more balanced and seems the result will be out in 4 days itself.
They have taken the wicket of Mathews which was important and the Sri Lanka have already lost 5 wickets and they still trail by 95 runs and a wicket here and they can expose the tail end and finish off the innings as there is too much heat for the Pakistan players for performing this badly and the criticism they are getting might put the batsman into pressure but the bowlers are bowling really well and before the toss i thought this would be a batting friendly wicket.

This gentleman below speaks right words. If Floyd is crazy for money and have balls to step in the octagon, then this fight will a new PPV record.
Age is a major factor in any sport and Floyd Mayweather is turning 43 years of age this February and does anyone really think that he will be planning to make a debut in a new sport where he has no experience when he is really old, i really do not think so, but the positive side is that Dana White is planning to focus his attention to the boxing world and we might see some cross promotion between Floyd Mayweather and Dana White other than that to think that he will be fighting is just imagination by the media and the fans alike because everybody likes to see Floyd getting defeated and so is the hype  Cheesy.

Kohli seems unlucky while captaining for big trophies,just my opinion though.

We all knows that he is aggressive captain and completely different from captain cool MSD but still India shines as best team but they need to be careful while playing big matches,more responsibility will come to captain so need to be calm rather than being aggressive while fielding against opponents.
Do you really think that Kohli is really unlucky or he is just aggressive all the time, you cannot win like that all the time as a team as he might perform but you have to remember that it is a team sport and if the captain is aggressive and then there are young players it will put a massive amount of pressure for these members to perform and it might not come out as planned and that is the biggest problem i see in him as a captain.

If Pakistani team is a young new team, what about the Srilanka ? They are also a new team but they are playing better cricket than the home team.
For the last few series Pakistani are playing the worse cricket and i also do not see any hope for improvement. Maybe they need a break from International cricket.
That is what i was telling, Sri Lanka is also having a young team but they have established players in the team who can guide the young players but i cannot find a mentor who could guide the Pakistan players, Pakistan is struggling because they are not good enough to guide the young players, if you are forcing the young players to face the best bowling line up and then face them and play according to their mind set not every player can play that.

Yeah I also wondered the same when Glen Maxwell was sold out today. Btw it was crazy auction with DI and Punjab going head to head for Maxwell. In the end DI backed off and KXIP got their man. It was an interesting auction in 1st tier ..especially the Cummins one.
The players will be well aware of the IPL auction and they would try their best to perform really well so that they could have a price tag on them and i am surprised that Cummins who is a fast bowler got the biggest price as T20 is a batsman's game and i would literally spent money for a all rounder like Andre Russell who could change the match with his bat and they spent the most to a bowler is strange.

Btw Hetmyer got sold for 775 lakhs.. Interesting price tag. His recent T20 and ODI performance against India has really pushed off his price tag.
What you mean by they sold for 775 lakhs Roll Eyes, what decimal is this buddy, sorry for my ignorance. Guess it is a good price considering the recent performance of Hetmyer.

Horrible form by Pakistan continues!!! I thought that they would be more comfortable this time, since the match is going on at Karachi and the opponents are not exactly very tough guys. The absence of Fakhar Zaman seems to be hurting them. His absence put a lot of pressure on Babar Azam, and it was very evident that he was not getting support from the other batsmen.
Pakistan is really struggling to put runs on the board for a long time and with a new team you cannot expect them to be confident enough to score runs all the time and on the other hand Sri Lanka is also playing with a young team but they have some players who can mentor these talents and guide them and i do not find any player in the Pakistan line up who can help the young talents. Sri Lanka already lost 3 wickets and if they are able to pick wickets in the morning session and Angelo Mathews is the wicket they will be looking for, if not he will steady the innings and give them the upper hand.

One of the craziest bet i have seen in sports betting sites and the biggest i have ever seen or known in public, this is in fact a crazy huge bet and even when the prize of bitcoin was really low i would not dare to wage a bet like that Cheesy. Good to see that he won that bet and what is the biggest limit for a match in Stake.
This is a crazy huge amount to bet on a sport event and i have seen people betting huge in stake and prime in the casino but this is something new and it was a cool bet but the suspense was much better as he had to wait till the second round for both teams to score and everyone who saw that bet was looking anxiously along with him and he won a cool couple hundred thousand dollars for taking a risk like that.
Who ever it may be, i hope you wont bust all playing these huge ones  Smiley.
