After 28 overs, Pakistan collected 181 runs from 132 balls, the team still needs 187 runs. If the batsmen can't bat at a good strike rate then they won't be able to win this match from now on. They now need around 8.5 runs per over to win.
The required run rate keeps on creeping and if Australia is able to pick wickets then it is going to be a difficult chase for Pakistan even though they had a good start just like Australia when they started. With the way Australia started, for a while i expected them to score above 400 but full credits to Pakistan bowlers for pulling the match back and started picking up wickets after breaking the opening partnership. |

As it is now clear that Pandya won't be playing the next match a in the World Cup. I am certain about Shami but I am not sure about SKY. I still think Ishan would be given preference over SKY. In my opinion SKY is a T20 player than an ODI one. His ability to hit the ball all over the ground comes handy as a T20 batters. Whereas a Kishan has already played in the World Cup and is quite capable in a 50 over match. We can only speculate the final decision would be taken by the team management.
SKY has shown that he has the ability to strike the ball really well when he is in touch in the highest level, he may not have showed that in ODI, but it is a matter of time he will prove his caliber, Ishan Kishan is a good left handed option as the match is in pitches where he will be familiar but not able to view him bat so no comments on that. The match is played in Dharamshala which showed that chasing a total is a bit tricky where Netherlands defeated South Africa and England scored 364 batting first, so the toss is an important factor. |

I would prefer Ashwin over Takur on any venue because he is more capable of batting and can trouble batsmen even in batting friendly conditions with his variations so that is the one change I would like to happen. Ashwin should be in the team as he would have walked into any team playing in this world cup and still not getting a spot and Hardik should take some rest and bring Shami back against New Zealand. AFAIK, the Hardik's Injury is not that serious but if he can't play the next match then India will be having big trouble since he contributes in both bat and ball.
If Hardik needs to be rested then India needs an actual 3rd seamer who will be Shami, but we will go one batsman short, so I hope he will be recovered before the big match against Kiwis on Sunday. Hardik twisted his ankle and he was not even able to bowl after that, he needs a minimum rest of one week and if he is rushed back for the Sunday's match against New Zealand he wont be playing at his best and he might get injured again. Kohli reached his 48th ODI ton today in his way and just one short to level Sachin's record.
Never thought anyone would surpass Sachin for the number of centuries scored in ODI. |

Afghanistan's bowling lineup has been building for the last couple of years and they improving their batting line as well. This is 4th match for the Afghans and they will come back to 4th position in the point table if they can defeat New Zealand today. 2nd upset in a row? Let's see.
Afghanistan has a great bowling line up and the Indian pitches will help them greatly, New Zealand had a slight slip up in the middle order but the partnership between Tom Latham and Glenn Phillips helped reach reach a decent total and considering the pitch condition, New Zealand will be able to defend the total unless someone steps up from Afghanistan and plays an incredible innings taking Afghanistan to victory. |

It would be great, if there is a comparison of different exchanges we can use and their fees.
Stopped using Wazirx after the raid from ED, bet they will be sending all user information to government authorities and make sure you pay all the taxes.
Still using Binance P2P as it is highly unlikely they will be sending information unless requested by the government.

Welp! There goes my awesome winning streak. The current World Cup champions are going to lose against Afghanistan which just goes to show the state of the England ODI team at present.
They are badly missing Stokes. Favorites to win the cup seem to be NZ, SA and India based on recent performances.
England does have a good team and the same members won them their first world cup, never saw this coming in this match, England loosing like this against Afghanistan but Afghanistan bowled really well and then recovered really well when the wickets started to tumble after their century opening partnership and if not for their tail end batsman there is no way they were reaching 250 let alone the score they posted. With this kind of bowling performance from Afghanistan, highly doubt Ben Stokes would have made any difference. |

I mean seriously dude? England declaring first innings with 2 wickets still left. I don't know why they are in so hurry to declare the innings. Root and Bairstow rescued England when game was slippig away from them. England scored 393 runs with RR of 5.04. Khawaja had a terrible WTC final and will be looking to score some runs today.
May be Ben Stokes wanted to bat again as soon as possible and hence declared the innings even though Joe Root was in the crease and Ollie Robinson was playing a proper Test innings and even i was confused and surprised when they declared the innings as i cannot understand what kind of approach is this with just 4 overs they could bowl even though they declared for the day. |

One hell of a match between Pakistan and New Zealand, expected an easy win for New Zealand when Pakistan lost their 7th wicket but Iftikhar Ahmed played some incredible shots along with Faheem Ashraf and took the team close and in the last over i was expecting Pakistan to win the match and i had to cashout my bet fearing of a loss but Pakistan ended up loosing in the end.

~ Binance manage to become transparent on the process of fixing the issue to stop FUD in the market. This minor problem is now cause an immediate panic attack due to the previous experience from FTX and other failed DeFi.  Even with the announcement some were expecting the worse, glad that they resumed the services because the panic started when they disabled withdrawals. Everything back to normal and i thought the market will take a dive due to the sudden announcement. |

Trading is back to normal and they stopped withdrawal when maintenance was going on which caused some panic in social media, you can start withdrawing and with FTX and recent bank failures everyone is getting spooked easily . |

But at the same time, we can confidently say that this inaugural season will only help Indian women's cricket as far as the talent pool is concerned. Yes, it'll take some time to mature but things are going in the right direction.
The tournament is a success as more people are watching the Women's Cricket and more opportunities for the players to earn a good purse which is much bigger than their International remunerations and the young generations will be taking note of that on a global scale and will be focusing on earning these WIPL contacts and in the future we will see more talents. |

What do you guys think? I think it is a great opportunity for everyone who has been struggling with crypto tax.
If we have enough liquidity in BISQ then it is the best option. I tried using them a few years back but no one was available to carry on any trade and hence i uninstalled them, but now there is a renewed interest for decentralized exchanges is good and if anyone used them recently how is the liquidity. ~
Also with such a non-custodial and non-kyc exchange, there's always a considerable risk of dirty money being pushed to the accounts of commoners like us. It seems the only option for Indians will be to use Indian exchanges like Wazirx, Bitbns etc. going forward. Not really a favorable time for Indians in the crypto market. If we receive hacked money then we are in trouble, so yes the risk is high for non KYC exchanges and some of the users here got into trouble for receiving money from hacked accounts in the past. |

Seems like the support level held its own. We are recovering not that badly neither. The recovery is a lot slower than the drop so it is not going to be nice to see that but I am quite happy with what we have right now. It looks both accumulating phase and also a recovery phase at the same time because of how slow it is. Looks like the market is recovering and hopefully we will not see any major sell off right now. I am not even sure why the market had a correction when there is not much negative news in the market and the day El Salvador legally introduced Bitcoin as a legal tender the market went down which is strange. Let’s hope that we could actually do see 50k+ this month, if we can do that before September ends then on October, November, December trio could be a lot better and with Q4 coming to close we could even beat ATH and have a new one as well. I really hope to see that happening but I am not sure if it will happen that quickly, it may take well into 2022 as well, that could be a bit of patience requirement but I am still happy as long as I get to see it break over ATH and get a new one, 100k is not THAT far away and can happen. In Q4 the expectation is that we will touch another all time high but i wonder how low the market could go once the bear market starts, my guess is that it will touch the old all time high valuation of around $20k by mid 2022. Just curious to see the market situation in the next one year as anything can happen once institutional investors starts their sell off. |

I have to congratulate Stake and Push Gaming on the awesome initiative to add a Slot ( Mount Magmas ) to their selection of games. This is not just some ordinary Slot, it has a Daily Jackpot that has to pay out every day.... and the best of all, it is Only for the Stake players.
In other Slots with a Jackpot, Stake players has to compete with players from all other casinos that are hosting that specific Slot. (Example : Red Tiger Slots) - Your chances of winning that Jackpot are significantly reduced, once that network are linked to that Slot.
Now, the joy does not end there... it also has a Super Jackpot that has to pay out before a $230k amount are reached. You can play with as little as $0.20 and you are eligible to win both Jackpots! ( 2 players have already won the daily Jackpot with a $0.20 bet and they have won $9000+ and $17 000+ each ) After seeing your post, i played Mount Magmas but i could not understand where the jackpot win will be announced. I played for half hour just to see how these things play out and wanted to experience them. I can see lucky win with odds of 126,949.95× and under big win someone won 8.07251200 Bitcoin with 2072x odds by placing 0.00389600, but how to see the jackpot winners. |

Nothing is guaranteed, especially if the format is T20. The advantage for Bangladesh is that two of the teams from each group in the qualifying stage will progress to the main tournament. So they can afford to lose one match. They are in a relatively easy group, along with Papua New Guinea, Scotland and Oman. Of the other three teams, PNG has been in pathetic form recently. Oman do have the home advantage, but their players lack experience. Only Scotland has a chance to make an upset. Actually these qualifying matches are a joke, ony a fluke could change the fortunes and i am sure they do not want a team like Bangladesh to sit out due to a fluke in a major ICC event. What i think is, do they really need these qualifying matches as if there are several hundred teams like in Football trying to claim a place and there is only a limited spot . |

Anything will be a bonus for New Zealand. Remember that they sent such a young team to Bangladesh, and they got whacked in the first two matches. But they came back strongly in the third match, with the Kiwi spinners routing the much more experienced Bangladeshi batsmen. If they could make it 2-2, then it will be some sort of an achievement. New Zealand is experimenting with the players and giving youngsters the opportunity but it is hard for anyone to bat in pitches like these. The positive aspect is that the New Zealand spinners are taking this opportunity and since the World Cup is played in UAE the spinners will get a chance to play. And in all probability, it will give a big boost for New Zealand ahead of the T20 World Cup. Also, it needs to be remembered that Bangladesh needs to play the qualifier stage, while New Zealand goes directly to the main stage of the world cup. Bangladesh will easily qualify as the match is played in spin friendly pitches in the UAE. The main issue is see with New Zealand is that their main players are rested and they cannot come out and play well without any match practice. |

The hosts displayed an incredible performance, particularly in the spin attack. After scoring 203, SL gave SA a tough time with their bowling. Credit goes to the mystery spinner Maheesh Theekshana, become the first Sri Lankan bowler to take five wickets in an ODI appearance. It is obvious that he is well-versed in bowling. Despite being young, Sri Lanka's squad is capable of competing against any team. Sri Lanka performed exceptionally well after a while. Sri Lanka had some of their terrible performance in recent series and South Africa is struggling against Sri Lanka which shows how weak South Africa has become. Earlier they are a tough team to beat in any conditions but the present team does not have the caliber of players that could carry the team and they needed only 204 runs to win the match and yet lost the match by a huge margin. I understand the pitch was difficult to bat but still if they are able to rotate the strike and take the match closer but they failed miserably. |

Virat Kohli and the coach is getting off with their terrible performance because they have an incredible bowling lineup and Jasprit Bumrah is bowling tight line and length at a good pace and they are able to pick wickets despite the absence of Mohammed Shami and Ashwin.
Edit: Another wicket gone.
One more wicket and India wins the match, if the Indian batsman could score runs then the rest will be taken care by the bowlers and even with the team shuffling its bowlers they are able to dominate the opposition is incredible and they have the best bowling line up in world cricket. I still think Ashwin would have played this match but the bowlers have done an incredible job that the coaching team will get away with any criticism. |
