In the first T20I match BANvsAFG, Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bowl first. Out of the eight T20Is played at this venue, teams that have chased the target have won seven times. Therefore, by choosing to bowl first after winning the toss, Bangladesh has a clear advantage at this moment and a higher chance of winning today's match.

Afghanistan are 53/4 after 8 overs of playing.

India's opening batting was excellent. Both scored centuries, Rohit Sharma was out on 103, Yashasvi Jaiswal unbeaten on 143. So far India has given a lead of 162 runs Day 2 Stumps. India still have enough wickets in hand if India leads by 250+ runs, it seems that West Indies will not be able to take the team and will lose. Because in the first innings, West Indies were all out for only 150 runs.  Let's see how many runs India can lead.

LOL.. it will take a miracle from West Indies to restrict India's lead to just 250. Remember that they are leading by 162 runs with 8 wickets in hand. And in case West Indies want to restrict India's lead to 250 runs, then they need to take all the remaining wickets for just 88 runs. I would say that it is an impossible task, given the fact that India has a strong middle and lower order. Ajinkya Rahane, Ravindra Jadeja, Ishan Kishan, Ravichandran Ashwin and Shardul Thakur are yet to bat. My guess is that India will get to a lead of at least 500 runs.

At the end of Day 2, India are 312 runs for the loss of 2 wickets. They enter Day 3 with a lead of 162 runs and still have 8 wickets in hand. The batting performance by the Indian players has been quite slow in recent times, which is disappointing. We're expecting them to score at a faster runs. Anyway, they are now nearly 200 runs ahead with 3 days remaining in the game. If they manage to add another 250 runs tomorrow, they can put West Indies under pressure and then quickly wrap up their innings within Day 4. The way Kohli is batting, he can score century tomorrow. Yashasvi Jaiswal has also been impressive throughout the innings, and he is on track to get a double century as well.

Well this is very good news for investors that hodl XRP tokens. We are seeing profits of 70% from yesterday after the judge ordered Ripple is not a security. Profits went as high as 96% after the court decision was made. 

But we must understand that the law suit is not over. It is still a big victory for Ripple against the sec and for all crypto community. I think we will see more gains for xrp this week.   
It is highly possible that SEC will take this matter to an appellate court and challenge some or all of the decisions made. While it may like a win and celebrating, there are still several things need to clear. During this process, it's very possible we will see surge in activity. XRP has already experienced a significant increase of nearly 100 percent. Now, XRP has the opportunity to soar even higher and maybe surpassing the one-dollar mark.

I also see that the NFTs hype is coming to an end. People are starting to question what's the point of them buying an NFT? Honestly I used to see NFTs as a place where the super rich spend their money.
Justin Bieber spent more than $1.3 million on NFTs last year. Currently, the value of that NFTs is around $59,000. It says all.

The people who will make real profits are the ones who bought them at a low price before they became popular and sold them when the prices were high. Now NFTs become a joke to me, and it makes sense why their value is crashing. Junk items.

I do not understand why the Indian team is playing test cricket against WI. The WI team is in such bad shape that it is worthless to even play against them. All I am able to foresee is that the ongoing series will only help India's ranking on the ICC table. I am not going to see the test match as I know India would easily win the match. BCCI should have canceled this bilateral and any in the future until the WI side is good enough to play against India.
This test series is so boring!
What has happened to the West Indies cricket team? It looks like an expired team. This poor batting by West Indies is much expected from this current team which is in such bad shape. They no longer have good enough players to give a challenge to any opposition. This match doesn’t even make sense. West Indies has failed to perform against better teams.

Bangladesh Women VS India women


In the end India Women managed to score 102 runs in 20 overs losing 9 wickets. Indian woman batting did not do well today. Bangladesh women bowled brilliantly, Rabeya Khan bowled brilliantly and took 3 wickets. 102 run off just 120 balls today which is very easy in T20 format. But it seems very difficult for Bangladesh to score 102 runs. We saw in the second match that Bangladesh managed to score 87 runs after going into bat against a target of 96 runs. Today, Bangladesh Women came down to bat in a target of 102 and scored 46 runs by taking 2 wickets in 10 overs. Bangladesh Women need 57 runs from 60 balls.

If these two batsmen Sharmin Sultana and Nigar Sultana can maintain their partnership then there is definitely a possibility of victory for Bangladesh today. But Nigar Sultana is already out which is a big bad news for Bangladesh. Bangladesh must be able to meet this target of 102 runs given by India as Bangladesh's wicket fall is under control. There is enough opportunity for Bangladesh, now the victory of Bangladesh depends on the current pair of Sharmin Sultana and Swarna Akhtar. Because if some runs can be collected then there will be less pressure on the next batsmen.

Batting performance quite disappointing from Indian women's. They struggled to score runs and failed to rotate the strike effectively on slow pitches, which ultimately cost them the match. This loss should serve as a wake-up call for a good team like India. Shamima Sultana played well and led Bangladesh to a consolation win in the three match T20I series. Despite this loss, Indian Women's win the T20 series. Congrats to Indian Women.

In my humble opinion, it would be much better for Bayern Munich if Sadio Mane and Harry Kane formed an attacking link, but if there is a question of choosing between these two players, then I think Kane would be a much better option. But I still think that the management of Bayern Munich should still give a chance to prove themselves this season.
Harry Kane and Sadio Mané would form a good pair, only that we should expect arguments between them. Sadio Mané was a fantastic player at Liverpool, even at Allianz Arena, but everything changed when he was injured; he could barely engage in activities, and returning to peak form was unsolvable otherwise. The Bayern board has no intention of retaining Sadio Mane at the club; they wish to sell the Senegal international, most likely next season, because he is extremely violent and has been involved in multiple physical fights with his teammates, including injuring Leroy Sané.

Last summer, Klopp expressed his desire for Sadio Mané to remain at Liverpool. However, despite the coach's wishes, Mané insisted on leaving. Now the situation has taken a turn for him as he has become a burden for Bayern Munich, who no longer want his services from next season. This change in attitude towards Mané likely started from an incident involving Sané. The club also want him to leave, because of the financial burden of his salary. It's sad to see Mane being treated in this way, anyway Senegal people must offer him wise counsel during this challenging time.

West Ham are getting frustrated due to the delay in Declan Rice's transfer to Arsenal. Despite reaching an agreement eight days ago, the necessary documents have not been signed yet. This has left West Ham feeling impatient and wondering what could be causing this delay in completing the documents. Is there any possibilities of Arsenal walking away from the deal, somehow they might have realized they are overpaying for a player who only has one year left on his contract.
In situations like these, it would be good to stay patient and keep an eye on any updates regarding the transfer, while I am also growing frustrated everyday.

Nice achievement from Manchester United on pre season match against Leeds United 2-0, two Manchester United's goals scored by young player Noam Emeran on 67th minutes and another goals contribution from Joe Hugill on 81th minutes. Its seems excited with Mason Mount make debut with Manchester United although as pre season match and Eric Tan Hag try to give position as attacking midfielder. Based on Manchester United starting eleven on pre season match against Leeds United dominance by young player, but first half still have several senior player from Lisandro  Martinez, Varane and Wan-Bissaka.

How possibilities with several young Manchester United will fill in the main squad next season? in first pre season match looks Eric Tan Hag trust with many young player and will they get chance promotion to main squad?

Mount made his debut, and let me say, he did a fantastic job introducing himself to the Manchester United team. He showcased his exceptional skills in his recovery, running into open spaces to receive passes, and providing support to both the defense and attack. The team's dominance have demonstrated, i mean young player doing it in style. Specially mention the brilliant performances from young players like Emeran and Fish. Personally, I'm optimistic and believe that Manchester United will have a successful season ahead.

Well, Mason Mount will wear renowned number 7 shirt for Manchester United. Whenever I see this number on the team's vibrant jerseys, CR7 naturally comes to mind. This iconic number holds a special and should be delivered to a player who has a proven track record and an absolute star on the field. Yes, Mount is talented player, but has not reached the level to earn it. It would be good idea to keep the jersey number unassigned until a truly deserving comes. Anyway, I wish him a fantastic season with Manchester United!

I'm really finding it difficult to believe that Mbappe is still not interested in staying at PSG knowing how much they (PSG board of directors) are ready to splash on him in terms of salary to be paid. After making those comments during the Interview last week I just feel that things between Mbappe and the fans ain't going to be the same again. I'd let him have a taste of what Messi and Neymar Jr went through from the fans, how they boobed those players without considering how they (Messi and Neymar Jr) feel or how they are ready to play and win trophies for the PSG side. But it's clear that Mbappe don't want to play or stay at the club again. My question is, what kind of reception is Mbappe going to receive from the fans?
Mbappe is wanna trying to get more achievement. Staying in PSG mean if his career is gonna stuck at the same place. There's no choice for him than leave from the club to join in a better club like real madrid. No guarantee if PSG will able to win UCL.
PSG could not even do that with messi. Based on my assessment, it would be wise for Mbappe to leave PSG and join another club. There is also another club that can offer him good salary. PSG is not the only richest club in the european football. So many EPL clubs are also putting their eyes on mbappe too. The competition to get mbappe gonna be harder than what already speculated by real madrid.
We're really getting fed up with all the problems Kylian Mbappe's issues. Honestly, it seems like he could be sold for a much lower price considering he only has one year left on his contract. The club doesn't want to risk losing him for free next season, but they can't force him to stay either. I personally believe he'll end up leaving for about half of his current value.

The only thing I see here is the fact that Napoli is simply propping up the price for Oshimen because they don't want to lose their talisman. They know that if they set the price high enough, even the biggest clubs in the world won't not make any attempt to sign him. Oshimen is a quality striker and Napoli knows this. Losing him now would be a set back for the team. We're talking about a team that started to see some success recently, so it's only right that they keep up with that streak. I don't see Oshimen signing for any club in this transfer market.

Any clubs interested should just wait till his contract expires then, they can get him for a fair price.

I too see it like that. Napoli isn’t ready to let go of Oshimen just yet and therefore have put up a really high amount on him knowing very few clubs if any would bid. The lad has performed superbly for his club and helped his club bag their league(serie A) trophy. They obviously don’t want to let go of their goal scorer.
But I think they’re still open for discussions if any club takes them up on their proposal. But the likelihood of that is pretty slim. I too don’t see Oshimen signing up for any club as he would most likely still be wearing a Napoli jersey next season.
Oshimen is undoubtedly the top striker in Europe right now. He has truly proven himself as one of the best strikers. Summing up his extraordinary performance for his club, it would be great for him to concentrate on his present club and not consider moving to another league. It's important for him to stay where he is happy and valued. Absolutely, I would prefer Victor Oshimen to remain in his current position unless he desires to face disappointment. If any other club genuinely desires him, they should be willing to meet the transfer fees set by the Napoli boss.

Al-Ittihad has reportedly made a significant offer of €100 million for a three-year contract to Paul Pogba. After Pogba being targeted for a move to Saudi Arabia, he visited there recently and got the opportunity to visit Al-Ittihad's facilities for personal reasons. However, when asked about the transfer speculations, he chose not to make any comments. As of now, no decision has been made. If the news turn out true, then Pogba would accept the offer. I do believe he should seriously consider taking it.

Finally, Bangladesh has achieved a victory over Afghanistan. In the third ODI match, Bangladesh managed to win by 7 wickets, so avoid whitewash in the ODI series against Afghanistan. The bowlers displayed outstanding performance, with special mention to Shoriful Islam's performance. Shakib Al Hasan played an aggressive innings, while Captain Litton led the team till end. Congratulations to Afghanistan for winning the series 2-1. Since 2015, Afghanistan is only the second team to defeat Bangladesh in an ODI series on their home ground.

Napoli bought Osimhen 75 million in 2020 and now he is one of the best players in the Italian League so it's not an exaggeration if Napoli opens an offer at a price of 120 million moreover he is a young player 24 years. If we pay attention to the current player market prices are increasing this happens every year , we still remember how Enzo Fernandez was bought by Chelsea for 121 million it really doesn't make sense but that's what happened.
The problem is napoli was even putting increasing his price once the club knew that if PSG was willing to buy him. Napoli is not putting osimhen's release clause around €150m again. It's now €180m. Napoli tries even harder to make sure osimhen to stay a bit longer in the club at least till next season. Osimhen may refuse the new contract from napoli. His price doesn't even make sense. These days so many clubs were putting on sense prices for their players. PSG was destroying the price of player once the club bought neymar and mbappe with non sense price.
The requested sum by Napoli in his release clause surpasses Osimhen's market value by a large margin. That will be a big gamble for PSG if the club will take him as a replacement for mbappe.
So much news rumored mbappe already made an agreement with real madrid but there is no further confirmation regarding this. I thought that this rumor was probably fake. Real madrid is not having that amount of money to buy mbappe from PSG.

That price tag for Victor Osimhen is way too high. Osimhen is a natural goal scorer, but it's difficult to justify such a high price for his services. As of now, it appears that no club is seriously considering buying Osimhen at this price. Napoli had hoped for a bidding war, but it looks that there is no interest so far. It's acknowledge that these discussions are currently just talks.
I just guess if Osimhen stays with Napoli, it might close his opportunities to play for a better team in the future. I just hope that Osimhen doesn't sign a new contract with them.

Finally England able to book victory over Australia in j this Ashes series. Australia batting in this match was not too good like they played in previous two matches. I think England bowlers now find the key to take quick wickets. Harry brook inining was interesting one. The way he played was just like ODI. His fantastic 75 of 93 gives england score speed to chase target easily. Now Series is 2-1 and next gane will be interesting one and both team will be enter in the ground with new strategy.
The roar that went up throughout the stadium after finishing the innings with a last-ball four was something to really enjoy, which is why the England vs Australia Ashes series is so lovable. The entire stadium was on its feet when England came so close to victory and the excitement of the crowd whenever a boundary brought the team back into the series was truly a sight to behold. England will have a huge confidence boost with a win in the third match and a win like that will always boost confidence in the next match. England's third match win against Australia was not that big but it will go down as one of England's most important victories.
The home ground support is very big. After losing two matches that are close to win, and winning the third match is a big moment for the England team as well as the supporters of the team. As stated every win gives the confidence and boost the performance, and the fourth test match is going to be a tough fight and a much interesting one as Australia will fight to win the series and England on its race to level the series. There won't be much of changes in the squad from both the teams.

To be honest Ashes have been given a boost with the return of Wood and Woakes. And because of this result Ashes series has certainly lived up to all the expectations and excitement. It's truly a thrilling contest between two great rivals. England managed to perform well on their home ground in the third test and won, but unfortunately, their decision-making in the first two tests backfired on their performance. As it stands, Australia is leading the series by 2-1, and we'll see if England level the series at 2-2 in the fourth test.

First, selling all crypto assets and distributing the money depending on users' portion of overall balances seems fair. Due of its volume, it can cause a major market decline.

To circumvent this, liquidate assets for fiat, institute a tight withdrawal process, and buy only when needed. They assure market stability and user share this way.

Regardless of the outcome, the market would shake. However, it must be handled wisely to ensure user fairness and market stability.

Because of big liquidity in the market it'll definitely lead a significant decline.

If Binance shutting down, it would have a potential negative impact that could affect the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem. Talking about recovering from this situation would require a combination efforts from different stakeholders involved in cryptocurrencies.

However, getting a full recovery and restoring market stability would be a gradual process with significant time.

All coaches when in office of course the main goal is like that because it is impossible for a coach to want a setback for his team, as well as for Pochettino at this time who wants
This season the burden for him can be said to be big because after 2 failures in the previous coach there will certainly be a lot of attention for Chelsea and Pochettino next season.
Communication and mental improvement for the players especially for their young players is really very important in this case. When they manage to make some changes both in chemistry and spirit improvement then this will indirectly improve their performance but if this is still the same as before even if their possession is good like last season it still won't have any impact.
A big burden awaits Pochettino, since being appointed as the new Chelsea coach, he has been given the freedom to choose the player he wants. Chelsea also did not hesitate to spend big money to bring in players labeled stars. They also did not hesitate to let go of Kai Havertz and Mason Mount in order to be able to bring in the players Pochettino wanted.

Chelsea have high hopes for Pochettino due to the failure of his previous coach, Pochettino needs to make big changes to Chelsea appearance so he can compete in the top four positions. He must approach the players internally, the closeness of the coach to the players will create a harmonious atmosphere which will have a positive effect on their appearance on the field. Apart from having to choose the players according to his wishes, Pochettino needs to create good chemistry between the players, he must learn from Guardiola to form a team with a winning mentality.
I'm concerned about Chelsea's next season after the departures of Mount and Havertz. The team needs a significant rebuild, but it's also crucial to develop strong relationships within the squad. In my opinion, the main issue lies with the team management rather than the players themselves, so Todd Boely should address that immediately. It's important to have skilled strikers, proficient passers, and a reliable goalkeeper. Chelsea must take care on scoring goals as well. I wish Pochettino the best of luck in his new season and hope that Chelsea will shine brighter than ever. If Pochettino follows his instincts, he could eventually uplift Chelsea.

As expected, Sri Lanka put on an impressive performance in Harare. They registered a convincing victory over the Netherlands with a big margin of 128 runs. The man of the Match award winner Dilshan Madushanka, literally dismantled the Netherlands' top-order batsmen.
With today's victory Sri Lanka win all eight qualifier games, demonstrate their dominance throughout the tournament and earned the title of Qualifier winners.
With their quality in both bowling and batting, Sri Lanka is hopeful to maintain their momentum in the upcoming World Cup as well.

Finally, England is looking very strong in this match and now there should be no excuse with them for not winning this won. They scored 93 for 3 wickets down but only need 158 more runs to register their first win in this match.
The opener Zak Crawley played well and made the one end safe while wickets kept falling at other end. Now he is also out when England is at the score of 93 but i am sure that remaining English batsmen would achieve this target and there will be no more drama again in this test match.
In this Test series, there is a good chance for England to keep the series alive, as Australia has already won two Tests and apart from today's Test there will be two more Tests where England have a good chance to level the series. It can be assumed that England can win today's match because if they form a big partnership then scoring 132 runs in today's match will not be very challenging for England. As Harry Brook and Joe Root have put together a 26-run partnership and they will want to turn this partnership into bigger runs. However, expect England to bounce back in their series and win today's match as England have learned a lot from their past mistakes which are going to result in this Test match.

England's chances of winning this match are slightly higher. But it cannot be said for sure that England will win. England still needs 99 runs to win. England collected 153 runs losing 4 wickets. Zak Crawley was dismissed for 44 runs. Harry Brooks and Ben Stokes are now batting. Harry Brooks remains unbeaten with 40 runs. Ben Stokes is in good form. England's team will win if Ben Stokes performs a bit better in today's match. I am optimistic about England's victory in this match. But if Stokes does not play well, there is a possibility of defeat for England. Because no other England batsman's performance is regular now except Stokes.
Australia were on track for winning the Ashes series, but in the third test, England put up a strong fight and turned the tables. Now, Australia is relying on taking more wickets to maintain their advantage. If they can get 1-2 quick wickets, it's going to make things exciting. Personally, I wish the scoreline 1-2 today. For Harry Brooks needs to step up and take responsibility, and a solid partnership is crucial after his side losing six wickets.
