Players getting paid is going to be a worry for many sports associations around the world including cricket players. The England Cricket Board is going to have some big problems in coming days and the same with the Australian Cricket Board. Like I have mentioned in other sports threads, the economy is going to play a big part in all sports after this virus is over, that's what we all should be worried about right now as we may see some sports teams never return after this, remember that money runs all the sports around the world and this has taken a big hit for many sports associations so we could see some not return.

Well... why should the sports players be given special treatment? Here in India, many of the states have asked the government employees to forfeit one month's salary. With the economy in deathbed, there is no other option. Private companies are laying off excess staff and millions are without a job now. I don't think that cricket players can be immune to all this. They need to forfeit some of their earnings.

I am not sure how this can be done in India. People in my country are given the option to send few days salary to the coronavirus fund and not all of the salary is detected without permission. Since players have an yearly contract, so they will be paid what is in the contract, regardless of whether they have matches to play or not.

As we’re discussing about wages I would like to bring to your attention that many big stars including Ronaldo has to take a pay cut due to this virus, and I believe that even big cricket stars will be forced to take a pay cut. Now this sounds easy on paper but in reality it’s complicated, as the board will have to decide whether there’s a blanket cut for all, or each contract is taken separately and then they cut that players wages.

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/cricket/coronavirus-england-cricket-stars-ready-21796282

Th players understand this all so they are doing their contribution through pay cut today I was reading that Cricket Australia and Australian Cricketers Association already reach on some agreement about cut in pays and ECB is also going to talk like this in coming days as this year England domestic and International both seasons in limbo.

So where will this deduction in salary goes ?
Whether it will be deposited to any covid-19 relief funds or they will be the savings for the respective cricket boards ?  Also i believe players voluntarily gives their part of salary to gain the fame.

Back then it was entirely possible. Sri Lanka was a really good team, capable of giving strong competition to big 3 teams and India had a weak bowling attack (especially in the pace bowling department). And back then, Virat Kohli had just started his career, and was being overshadowed by heavyweights such as Gautham Gambhir, Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag.
It is true that India had weak bowling attack than Srilanka at that moment. It was advantage for Srilanka but don't forget that batting line up of India was the best at that time which Srilanka had not.

Well.. you can say that... players such as Sehwag, Sachin and Gambhir were among the top-10 batsmen at that time (I am not listing Kohli here, because at that time he was not being considered as a "legend"). If we talk about the bowling, then Sri Lanka had Lasith Malinga and Muttiah Muralitharan, who were legends. For comparison, India had Zaheer Khan, Sreesanth and Munaf Patel, with Harbhajan Singh being the first-choice spinner.

Well you did not mention MS Dhoni, who was the player of the match in this final. He was at super form that time. He made a not out 91 in just 79 balls. If he had not played this innings, it would have been difficult for India to win this CUP. After this worldcup the downfall of Srilanka started and they never recovered even in 2020.

People betting on these games with full seriousness and then ending up on losing side by losing bet Grin

I just checked cricinfo and they are showing Live India Vs Pakistan Match ?  How is that possible ?
They are running a program called retro live from what i understand as i have seen many matches replicating old matches and copy pasting the old commentary with a live score card Cheesy, since there are no new contents they need to come up with something to make things interesting for the website so that they will have visitors and thereby have the revenue through advertisement.

So it means there will be more of such matches ? I do not find them interesting. If anyone want to watch the match, the could better watch the highlights why waste time on watching each and every ball which is already been played. Soon people will be fed up of these old matches, as there is no comparison for the live matches.

Seeing this question one more question arises in my mind that if anyone by mistake copies the private key and search it in the blockchain search bar, does it get recorded anywhere ? 

Of course; I don't think they will be displayed publicly, but at least google will have them recorded and stored, like everything you search on their browser/search engine

So if by the end of the day, they (google staff or blockchain.info staff)  search for their database, they could find the private keys ? That is really dangerous and people can lose their funds by their little mistakes like this.

Indian community is living around the world which is also best part of their revenue and they have really good funds for selling media rights which is not possible for any other cricket board in Pakistan we have no structrue for this its first year we have this at home but still its very good and they handle all things very good we can hope this will bring some good money and in future this will also have more attraction from many other countries.
Well Indian media is one of the biggest in the world. Let's not forget it. There are English media and American media but Indian media goes parallel with them too.

Exactly, India media has influence over the world media and they cannot be taken any smaller than USA media.

I do not understand what Indymoney means by selling the media rights ?  The host country always have the rights to sell their media rights to different channels worldwide  Huh

I don't know any other section in here to post this.

I recently went in my blockchain app, went in the  section "Addresses" and added in the section of "Important Addresses" a random address to test what it was, i literally went on internet and typed "btc bar code" and added it. I'm very scared that now the owner of the adddress i marked as "important" in this section can steal my funds, i have a few coins and it took my a life to get them i'm scared to death, should i just transfer the money to another wallet or do i keep in my wallet? help me please


Although you have done nothing wrong and you wallets/coins are safe as most of people have replied you above me.

I have had the opportunity to try a few times until today. But I couldn't make any money with fantasy betting. Therefore, I have not played for a long time. Do you think it's really fair? Maybe I will benefit from the suggestions here.

I have a confusion about this fantasy sports ?
Since it is not a real sports, can it be manipulated in a way that those who are betting on it have a major loss ?  Who decided the result in Fantasy sports ?

2013  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Anyone here dream of achieving their financial goal in life through gambling? on: March 29, 2020, 08:57:50 AM
Achieving your financial goals out from gambling is tough but very possible for those who are lucky and responsible.
Let's grade this...

achieving through luck.. maybe I will give you 1% chance of getting that done, but if you are good or your term used is responsible, I would say you can get that 100% but you can't get that instantly, you need to work for that as what you need is to be consistent on whatever skilled type of game you will focus, and then you'll consistently make money.

There is one 1% chance of getting rich and changing fortune with gambling and yet people take risk with it. Also getting rich with gambling is like a dream and dreams are not necessarily fulfilled. Many people just keep on dreaming and gambling never make them rich.

I am being harassed more than usual by a previously caught scammer/fraudster.  I have no idea who he actually is, however, he has now created two accounts just to leave nonsense feedback.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2784841

Is there anything that can be done?, I can only assume there will be more to come.



Why are you worried about their feedback. They are newbie accounts and their feedback does not matter. If you have done anything wrong, the you will get the negative feedback from DT member, which will matter the most. Rest you just don't need to care about what these newbies account feedback. Ignoring them is the best option.
2015  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: IPL Mutual Pool Discussion. on: March 29, 2020, 04:51:49 AM
snip...

Its now very clear that there will be no IPL this year. The world is unable to deal with coronavirus and i doubt that we can even see any sports for 3 -4 money after the virus disappeared, as a precautionary measure.
Possibly without any spectators it may happens but we are not sure how long it will take to completely eradicate this virus.And also more research coming that corona 19 can end up as seasonal attack like sars so it may disappears as how it appears in most unexpected way but at the same time it may attack the people next season which maybe months or years.

If you remember, the PSL last few matches were played without any spectators , but there were also not risk free. We had the news that one of the Players of a certain league showed the symptoms of coronavirus and the tournament was immediately stopped.
The idea of playing without spectators is good one, but this virus is far more dangerous and no player would want to take any risk.

The change is very dramatic. It was very quick and in around 20 days we are experiencing the opposite news now the media people are busy spreading fears among people especially those politicians in some of the countries. I hope everyone is listening qualified doctors and not listening the social media experts.

Surprisingly majority of Indian media house and politicians are acting very responsible in comparison of many countries (it gives some hopes) and they are avoiding unnecessary fear-mongering with one motto. "Take precautions but no panic"


Most of good reponses coming just because of Italy Spain because too many Videos on social media and peoples realizing if they will not act as good citizen then surely they will be on losing side like these countries so good and responsible is in their own favour hopefully this all will end soon and we all will be normal.

2017  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: IPL Mutual Pool Discussion. on: March 27, 2020, 07:37:08 AM
or will they move it to 3rd or 4th quarter this year ?

Schedule of all T-20 Domestic leagues.

You can see other countries already has their own T-20 leagues to run and in between everybody has International / Bilateral cricket commitment as well. So i would be very surprise if IPL moves into Q3 or Q4. Its safe to say No_IPL this year.

Edit : And don't forget we have T-20 world too this year (Oct). Even WC could get cancel if situation gets out of the hand.

T-20 World cup will be in 2021 as now its going to disturb PSL next year or may be played in February today check few talks about CPL as West Indies Cricket Board is still in limbo about this event but will announce all in next few days things are not good for this years IPL hopefully we will able to be normal in next few months.

If we move any tournaments, there will be lot overlapping between the tournaments and some players may not be available for some tournaments. Since we have cricket all over they year, there is no free space where tournaments can be shifted. The only option is to cancel the tournaments which cannot be played on the scheduled time.
2018  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcointalk has been blocked in Russia because of Gambling advertisement on: March 26, 2020, 08:42:03 AM


strange that they block a crypto forum all because there were gambling ads. they could just bann the gambling sites since online gambling is illegal to them. a message could be banning cryptocurrency  Grin

Indeed. I think that the ads is not the reason why the blacklisted the forum.
In the end, they could just block the cryptocurrency ads not banning the whole forum.
Cryptocurrencies are what they do not want...

Banning the forum is not a good decision by them. I know there are many Russians here on the forum. They will not be liking this decision. I am sure you can still access the forum through VPN if you are in Russia. Anyone who is in Russia can tell us the exact situation.
2019  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Bitcointalk PSL T20 Pool and discussion. on: March 26, 2020, 08:25:52 AM
Ah... Nice to see you both getting unbanned early. Since the ban lift, I see both of you are on a posting spree maybe because of the lockdown Tongue

I do not know JSRAW's case but I was boring AF and now enjoying every bit of my freedom lol. Fact is I have nothing much to do these days until things getsl normal again.

Believe or not but this month i got shitload amount of work and i am working on deadlines. Every office around the globe shutting down and everyone passing a projects to freelancers. I shouldn't say this in current World wide crisis but for me its like X-MAS. I am already workaholic so all good, the only thing i am missing out is my GYM.

This means that freelancers are getting more income in these days when rest of the people are waiting for their business and offices to resume.
For the rest of us, would we be becoming bored by lockdown in home without any cricket to watch on TV ? I sometimes watch the old matches highlights of previous PSL and IPL but that's not that much entertaining.
2020  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: T20 and T20I cricket prediction and discussion on: March 25, 2020, 02:05:31 PM
^^ I didn't heard any official statement so far but as of now India is in complete lockdown for 21 days so no one thinking about sport or cricket anymore. 99% chances are "No IPL" this year.
Lockdown for 21 days!
That's very hard for a nation with this large number of population. I can imagine the poor citizens who do not have enough to bring food in their mouth. Is your government doing anything for them? What is their plan for them?

By the way, welcome back.  No IPL will be boring lol

Still lockdown is better than a curfew. In lockdown essential services are still working. By the way if you have not heard in the history of Indian railways this is the first time that all passenger services have been cancelled.



It has been lockdown everywhere and not only in Asian countries, although I do believe that its much harder for the under developed country public to deal with the lockdown situation as compared to the developed world.
Never thought that there could be  time when there would be no cricket anywhere in the universe.
