You can be successful when you borrow money and invest in crypto and you can fail too. The most important thing is being able to know when to enter the market. If you enter the market at high you may lose but if you enter at low you will gain. For anyone to take such risk you must have much knowledge of the market

There is no way we can certain that whats the best time to enter and exit market, as crypto market is based on speculations and takes wild swings very often. There is golden rule of trading, Invest as much as you can afford to lose. I guarantee an experienced trader never do such mistake of investing with borrowed money only newbies do that silly mistake.

with Bitcoin price right now, a regular person with a regular job at a company will struggle to own 1BTC so yeah congrats yourself for having the guts. majority of the people will likely want to buy early to some altcoins like SOL, AVAX, and Matic than buying BTC which they couldn't own 1. just want to assure you BTC will not go zero no matter how long the bear market will be. it may fall terribly like 80% but it will not go zero and it will be satisfying when te price reach another ATH after it.

Bitcoin price right now is around 42k$ and there are not may around who can afford a complete btc at that price. This thread was created on 30 Jan 2022 and price was around 38k$ on that day, if OP has bought BTC at that price then its a high one in my opinion. I have investment in BTC but not upto extent that I have one complete BTC, I am investing in top altcoins like BNB, Cardana etc.

The problem is that everyone knows there is a certain problem but no one seems to give the solution. And no solution is going to work if not the tension between the two countries reduces.

And as we know that the political leaders control almost everything about sport in a country, I don't think the situation is going to improve even in the next 10 years in my opinion. I actually think that both the teams have accepted the fact and moved on and I think that is something that we should also do as fans. The only time we are going to see India versus Pakistan is in the ICC events.

Political situation between both countries take twist when big powers intervene. I don't think it will be dry period forever and we can't say when it will last. India likes to play with Pakistan in icc events only since they have better record against Pakistan there. Victory in last T20 WC was first ever win by Pakistan against India in WC.

The women's IPL might actually be successful because there is a certain amount of interest in women's cricket in India and as we all know that almost all of the people in India love cricket I think women's IPL will be also popular. But one thing needs to be looked at which is to make the schedule at separate times so that no clash happens.

Cricket is very popular in India but men's only. If there is any interest in women cricket in India, BCCI along with there business partners must have kicked off women IPL by now. There is not much scope for women in cricket right now they should look for alternatives like football, basketball, golf.

LOL.. anyone watching the ongoing New Zealand vs South Africa test match? Kiwis prepared a minefield to welcome the Proteas and the latter got blown away for just 95 runs. Matt Henry picked up 7 for 23, while the other three pacers got one wicket apiece (Tim Southee, Kyle Jamieson and Neil Wagner). When it comes to pace bowling, there is simply no competition to New Zealand. They are the best right now, and that too by a considerable distance. Reminds me of the Aussie attack two decades back, when they had McGrath and Lee.

I wasn't able to see the match so far, so don't know whether it's pitch of NZ actually bowled well. It's first time since 1932 that SA were bowled out on total of less then 100. While Richard Hadlee was the third NZ bowler with highest wickets in an innings after Ajaz Patel and Richard Hadlee.

Arey didi you're throwing some fine wisdom here.  Tongue Grin

How hard is it to understand that so far BCCI policies are very ignorant as far as Women cricket is concern, they treat them as second class community.  

Although recently Dada and his deputy made some positive announcement about WIPL but judging from their track record its hard to take their words for granted.

BCCI is hiding behind excuses like there is lack of depth at domestic level for women IPL, The time is right for a women's IPL (but does the BCCI agree?). Right now there are zero chances of Wome T20 leagues and India Pakistan series. Both are good for cricket but not in interest of people who control cricket.

PSL matches are gaining too much excitement that even the players can't control their emotions in the field. Yesterday we witnessed the exchanges of the most controversial signs when the  pakistan bowler Sohail Tanvir under fire after obscene gesture on the field. Although both players were later fined 15% of the match fee but it was exciting to watch war scenes amount players inside the ground. PSL entertainment can't be compared with any league in the world.

This is not entertainment just nonsense and PCB must punish both of them so no one dare to do it again. Entertainment is seeing karachi scoring 174 runs. Finally they manage to give a decent target. Except Babar Azam all batsman of karachi contributed there part. Can karachi win today ?

@coinism if there’s something common between all the political parties in India it’s their stand against touring to Pakistan, or letting them come over to play so yea it’ll take many year’s before we see a series between these two sides. @Sithara007 I think it’s time to move focus on IPL now, and with so many changes I feel it’ll be an open contest between all the teams, so anyone keen to make early predictions?.

There were voices in India ahead of T20 match b/w India and Pakistan that the match must be boycotted. But the match was played and what a match that was. I think Pakistan have no issues in playing with India. In-fact players from both side have no issues touring each other. Powerful ICC can make such bilateral series happen but not this weak ICC.

Why would BCCI look for profit through women cricket when they are making more profit every year through IPL? WIPL will not generate revenue for them as not many Indians watch women cricket within India. Have you ever seen a lot of crowds gathering in the stadium when women cricket is being played in India?

Lack of interest from BCCI in starting WIPL is one key factor that women cricket is still neglected. Male cricket teams from Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have dominated international crikcet but there woman teams are no where to be seen. England and Australia have good women cricket team only.

Meanwhile Sri Lanka today are almost at the verge of losing 3rd T20I game. A superb spell by Kane Richardson, 4-0-21-3. Sri lanka were restricted to 121 only. Dasun Shanaka was top scorer from Sri Lanka side who scored 39 runs. In Reply Aus are steady, they have scored 95/3 in 13 over.

It certainly is. 
However, let's remember the last time Russia is to blame for everything!  In Tokyo, excellently performed gymnasts from Russia were wrongly sued, and now there is a scandal around the world's strongest female f gurist.  For some reason, it is with those who claim to be worthy medals.  And at the same time, all the rest and Norway and from Germany and of course from the USA - all athletes are absolutely clean.  I affirm that this is not the case.  And this is all a scam and not a fair game of dirty officials from the Olympic Committee. 
And also keep in mind how much more difficult it is to train and win for such Russian athletes who are practically being hounded.

15-year-old figure skater phenom Kamila Valieva from Russia recently tested positive in doping test. You are right in saying that USA and its allies from EU are not touched by authorities in mega events like olympics. This clearly tells that games are no more neutral rather politicised. Russian athletes are representing there country under the acronym ROC, something very strange to digest for person like me.

What is ROC at the Winter Olympics? Why Russian athletes are competing at Beijing 2022 despite doping ban

Yes pakistan do have a very good t20 squad and their inclusion in IPL would surely make it better . But I have to say even without them IPL is getting better and better over the years. With 2 new teams coming this year will make IPL even more interesting and competitiveness will increase. I am really excited for this season of IPL.

Two new teams will make this league even bigger. Hardik  Pandya who is recently dropped recently from Indian team due to his performance will lead Gujrat while Lucknow will lead by KL Rahul. Gujrat Titans bought Pandya for 15 crore. Money is raining specially on Indian players in IPL. Its a win win situation for everyone for bcci, for Indian players and for remaining of cricket world.

I really don't even think that India thinks about this thing as a problem because India is not suffering from this by any means. This is actually rather problematic for Pakistan because through IPL a lot of Pakistani players also could have proved themselves but now they don't have that chance and also the financial loss that Pakistan is having to bear because of this decision. I think Pakistan should improve the quality of their own T20 league and they can have a lot of profit from that.

It's purely a political decision of not including Pakistani players in IPL since present govt of boh counties don't have good ties. PSL current edition is 7th over and so far it's a good journey for Pakistan. Initially PSL was held in dubai but now all matches are played in Pakistan and players from all countries are participating in it.
Apart from that Pakistani players are also participating in all leagues world wide which give them a good exposure and chance to earn money.

A good point that they have no idea about Pakistani conditions but still they have enough data and updates about Pakistan cricket and conditions because now all available on websites without any problem so just because of this they have good enough preparation about this tour coming with 3 spinners and their winning squad who ruined English team few weeks back at home.

There is no doubt they are coming after 24 years due to security issues related to Pakistan, but sometimes I feel really shock many Indian related sites and peoples still having mind there are doubt that they are coming or not it's their own mind but in Australian media there are not doubts about this from any player or any other member of this squad it's just crazy thing for me because Indians are still not happy with this tour as now Pakistan is improving and having better things for better future.

Pakistani team is good in T20 and ODI format but in test Australia have upper hand. See how well Australia performed in recent Ashes. They are carrying almost same squad for this tour, Ashton Agar is the only addition to that squad.

"Pakistan is totally different to India. The ball is not going to spin straight away and mostly the wickets have been taken by the faster men rather than the spinners. Bazid Khan

I am not sure but there are 2 spinners in Australian squad so they are relying mostly on pace attack.

It is really good to see the fans being more and more interested in PSL because Pakistan really needs as much support as they can get for their PSL League. Is it needed to say that the matches seem to be more interesting than before in my opinion? I don't know why but I really think that this year's PSL has some flare to it.

In today's match, Islamabad gave a target 200 run and Quetta won by 5 wkts

Islamabad United gave a massive target of 200 to Quetta and seeing the recent performance of Quetta it was predicted that it will be any easy win of Islamabad. Jason Roy who is terrific form scored 54 runs on just 27 balls. Sarfraz finally played a match winning innings of 50 not out.
Quetta are very much now in the race for next round.

India did OK, but the top order batting was not impressive. But in the end, they won all the three matches and gained 30 points in the 2020–2023 ICC Cricket World Cup Super League. Now India has 79 points from 12 matches (they are at 4th position currently). As of now, Sri Lanka, South Africa and Zimbabwe are the teams that are in danger of failing to finish outside the top-8 (in that case they don't get automatic qualification for the 2023 CWC). For India, the next ODI series is against Afghanistan (next month).

I don't know how this super league works since teams like Bangladesh and Ireland are at number 2 and 4 respectively while Pakistan and NZ are at 9 and 12 respectively. These are based on number of matches but how these matches are scheduled? NZ has only played 3 matches while Bangladesh has 12 and Ireland 18 matches.

Even Kohli is facing the worst time of his career but still having very strong back up from his team and current management is very good he can fight back anytime in near future because we have a very long history of bad patches of great batsmen, and they fight back done good for their respective teams same can happen here in Kohli.

This current ODI series is second worst of his career as second time he fails to have average in single digit, but with this all he is still very elegant player who can perform few more years for his team and country in very good way. Rohit Sharma is going to with him in this bad time is something very important for this great player of current era.

The question is how long Indian team will wait for kohli to return to his form? Are they going to wait for indefinite period. There is lot of talent lined up why not give some new talent a chance to perform while kohli goes back and recover his form in domestic cricket. Rohit Sharma won't be siding him forever if kohli continues such form.

First match at Lahore have very big crowd and now many feeling in today and tomorrow matches surely we are going to have same level of fans which is very good.

I love Nepal team as they are doing very good recently and yesterday's was really great because once I was feeling they will lose but at the end they have done good job for good win.
In PSL, two teams from Islamabad, Quetta and Peshawar will make it to semis along with Multan and lahore. Yes there is more participation of crowd in lahore than in karachi.
Nepal had there second encounter with another team of expats i.e. UAE. This time Nepal wasn't able to win. UAE gave a target of 192, in reply Nepal manage to score 167 only.

Historically Pakistani pitches mostly support both batsmen and bowlers because they know how to handle these teams at home just because of this mostly they badly struggle in Australia and in New Zealand because they never try to have pacer friendly wickets which give them good practice for these countries and with current bowling squad Australia is bringing most chances they will never try to have pitches for bowlers because this is not going to help Pakistan.

Even currently Pakistan is having very good and balanced squad with good batting line and bowlers are also good, most chances we will have all three test matches with result which surely will create more fans and people's interest in this historic series.

Australia's selectors and players openly admit they have no idea what type of conditions will be thrown their way in Pakistan but they are confident they have picked a well-rounded squad to cover anything that comes up. espncricinfo.com . Aussies are relying on domestic cricket data of Pakistan to figure out how pitches are in Pakistan.
Australia last tour was 24 years ago and its still not 100% sure whether they are coming or not.

Yeah, but if they want some better exposure of BBL then surely they need to do some better things like bring 4 players from overseas is also not bad at all because this can bring few players from South Africa, England and few other countries as well which help them in viewership as surely currently BBL is second most watched league in Pakistan with PSL having first spot and IPL is banned.

But, Australia is developed country and their financial infrastructure is also very strong which is helping them for having good money from this league but in next few years we can watch many things going to change with leagues war is now on and all boards looking for better finances with IPL surely going to stay at top and for second and third spot fight is going to be very tough.

IPL is banned for Pakistani players and Pakistan has banned IPL airing in the country. It doesn't matter to India since there financial loses with Pakistan ban is nothing. But definitely its PCB that is suffering financial losses due to IPL ban imposed by BCCI.
T20 Leagues mania has taken over all boards. No league is near future can replace IPL from number one spot. There is only battle for second and third spot.
