It was a match reduced to 42 overs due to rain and the target set by Pakistan was adjusted by a run by DLS method and not DRS (review system) . The boundary in the last over was a lucky edge and nothing could be done to prevent that other than moving the slip position.

Pakistan performed poorly in those matches and hence they lost the match granted that in the match against Sri Lanka their main bowlers were injured during the India match and it is time the players need to take care of their fitness to play the ODI.

Valentina Shevchenko will be really careful in her rematch as she was really winning the fight when they fought the first time until that kick she threw and Alexa Grasso was waiting for that mistake so that she could take advantage of the situation where she might have drilled a thousand times. I expect the fight to go the distance as both the fighters will be cautious but expecting Valentina Shevchenko to regain her belt.

It was not that obvious that Bangladesh could beat India because the last time Bangladesh beat India in the Asia cup was back in 2012 which is a decade earlier. India did the smart thing to rest their important players for the final and give opportunity to the bench warmers as they were playing back to back matches because of the weather and their dumb schedule and still it was a close match that went till the final over.

Who would have thought PSG would show their skills in their defense  . Pathetic performance by PSG and giving open spaces to their opponent inside the goal line and no coordination in the defense what so ever and once Nice scored their first goal, i had my doubts that these blunders would happen again and if not for Donnarumma Nice would have scored more goals.

It was a good match between Bangladesh and India, when the match started, Bangladesh were struggling to bat but then Shakib Al Hasan took the team to a safe total and India chasing a total of 265 was short of its target, India was able to take the match till the last overs, Mustafizur Rahman bowled a good second last over that took the wicket of Axar Patel who was the last hope and Bangladesh won a match against India in Asia cup after 2012.

England was on a good position during the 30th over to get to a huge target but then New Zealand was able to pick wickets at the right moment and now they have a target of 312 runs and if the openers can give them a good start then it is going to a interesting chase.

---

South Africa and Australia is ongoing and to my surprise, South Africa scored 416 runs with the help of Heinrich Klaasen who played like a T20 throughout his innings of 174 runs and it is an impossible target to chase.

The price of SOL will take a toll, the market has improved recently and when they start selling it will have an impact in the market and SOL will go down considerably considering the amount of tokens they are holding, $268 million in BTCitcoin and what is not clear is that how they are planning to sell. If they are selling these in the open market, then it will impact the market as this fear alone will drag the market down.

Yes the winner of this match will be facing India in the final. I believe that the history suggest that Sri Lanka has been to the Asia cup finals than any other team and with the way today's match is progressing, Sri Lanka has the chance to beat Pakistan and book a berth in the finals. Pakistan needs to pick wickets now to put pressure on them, if not they will chase the target without much issues.

Wonder which wallet they are using to make these kind of blunders. I have used majority of the desktop wallets that are available in this space and you cannot make these silly mistakes using them, unless you use some mobile wallet and you are under the influence of alcohol or something similar you might make these mistakes.

Not sure how they can make these blunders .

It is an impossible target to chase with the way they started losing their top 3 wickets and all they can do is to hang in their and try to build partnership and frustrate the England bowlers. Trent Boult bowled well in a run fest and picked up 5 wickets which is impressive and a lot of positives in the match for England after losing the first match and with this win they will lead the series .

India was able to defend a total of 214, which means they are the favorite to win the cup, never expected to defend a total like that but then it is not the spinners that changed the match, fast bowling by Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj in the opening spell and then later on Hardik Pandya bowled a wonderful spell when Sri Lanka was building a partnership. The only disappointment was Axar Patel, if it was Ashwin in his place, he would have made a difference.

MicroStrategy is loosing money and not generating that much money according to their financial reports and hence Michael Saylor is hyping up the investors about the value they are holding in the foreseen future and thereby he might be thinking about manipulating their stock price as well just like Elon Musk used to do with his random rants in social media  .

Another rain affected match, England and New Zealand reduced to 34 overs each and England is struggling at 103 for the loss of 6 wickets and looks like New Zealand will win the match here unless we see some extraordinary bowling performance from England. England lost the first match even they scored a substantial good total and New Zealand chased them with ease and with a struggling performance in this match, they will lead the series 2-0 after the match.

Pakistan won the toss and chose to field because of the pitch condition and they were not able to grab the opportunities offered by India in the earlier stages and now India went on to score a century partnership, but now they have lost their openers in quick succession, Pakistan needs to contain the run flow, if not India will score above 330 runs and probably win the match.

Holy Shit, one of the biggest upsets once again in Australia, Sean Strickland just upset Israel Adesanya with just boxing clinic, straight one two and no other fancy stuff and the first round was crazy as Sean Strickland dropped Israel Adesanya and was on the verge of stoppage and any other referee would have stopped the fight and then to win the fight by decision deserves a huge respect as Adesanya could not do anything offensive to counter.

Only Chael Sonnen predicted Sean Strickland could win here and now we have a new champion  .

If Arnold Schwarzenegger who is famous for lifting weights can become the Governor of California and Kane Aka Glenn Jacobs can become the Mayor of Knox County, why not Mirko Cro Cop or Fedor Emelianenko turn into politics  .

Majority of the fighters are forced to talk trash to stand out from the crowd, either you should have the skills set to stand out naturally or you need to come out with something else to stand out from the crowd because only the fighters with big mouth are earning big money and hence i can understand what Sean Strickland or Colby Covington does.

Bangladesh lost their third wicket of Shakib Al Hasan when the scoreboard was just 70 runs and now Mushfiqur Rahim and Towhid Hridoy is building a partnership and they already scored 54 runs and they still need 120 runs to win from 16 overs. Since the target is not that high and if they can rotate the strike and not loose wickets at this time, then they can challenge Sri Lanka and i wont be surprised if they go on and win the match.

Glad to see that Australia finally gave a place in the team for Marnus Labuschagne in the ODI team and he scored another match changing century along with David Warner and a century from Warner proved that he will be a fixture till the World Cup. South African bowlers we taken apart as the target for them is 392 and this is going to be another huge loss for them before the World Cup.

The first two sets were really comfortable but then in the third set he made many errors and went to the tiebreak but Novak Djokovic was too good for the youngster and reached his 10 US open finals and most probably his 24th grand slam title.

Waiting for the Daniil Medvedev and Carlos Alcaraz match and it is going to be a tough battle and expecting Carlos Alcaraz to move to the final.

Just think about the odds if you could predict that Sri Lanka of all women's team would defeat England when they are touring England, i never expected that and placed a bet on the first match and England won easily but then the next match, i put the match in a parlay and lost my bet and hence did not want to place a bet after that and surprise, Sri Lanka won the third match and the series .

Doubt that they could replicate the same performance in the longer format but it should be the upset of the season.
