Nothing much to say about the match today New Zealand top order and middle order both struggled in previous match too and they did in this as well. This time it was a big collapse instead and no one could save them. I think it's an fairly easy chance that India might make a clean sweep here and you'll then see India on top of icv odi rankings soon as well.
Kiwis collapse due to outstanding bowling by Indians. A comfortable eight-wicket win in Raipur seals the three-match ODI series for India. Firstly, India bowled out New Zealand for 108 runs and then chased it down in 20.1 overs. There is no response from New Zealand at all! This is India's 7th consecutive win in the bilateral ODI series at home. |

The second ODI will take place tomorrow, at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur. I don't know much about this venue, but I guess it is just another India track which provides zero support for the bowlers. Morale will be high for both the teams - India after their win in the first ODI, and New Zealand after their incredible fightback with Michael Bracewell and Mitchell Santner. And toss will once agai have a big impact, with the team winning the toss very likely to electing to bat first under batsmen friendly conditions.
I am suprised that you are saying that Indian pitches provide zero support to bowlers. Please check the stats from the previous bilateral series between Srilanka and Newzealand. If Indian batters are batting extremely well then the pitches are not good for bowlers but if Indian batters are failing to score good then the pitch is good for bowlers. Hypocrisy at its best. However, the toss can be crucial. That part is unavoidable. There was a massive total put on the board by Indian batters in the first ODI. There will always be pressure when you try to reach that total. Thus, winning the toss and putting a heavy total would work in your favor. It will be more fun to watch the second ODI since many people believe Kiwi will turn things around. Michael Bracewell came close to giving the Kiwis a victory despite having 138/6 halfway through the second innings. As for Kiwi's chances in the second ODI, I am confident they won't miss out. |

PSG are playing a friendly match against Al-Nassr right now. The first half was really lovely as we watched 4 goals in total. It feels great to watch Ronaldo and Messi playing against each other again after a long time. Both of them scored goals in the first half.
That was a great fun to watch the match because both rival meet after long time, but I am worried about PSG defense they has big big player like Ramos and Marquinhos in defense but still there a big issue in his defense through which they still can't stop the weak team like Al-nasr attack same like against nennes. I taught this will be one sided game but they score 2 against PSG in first half, no doubt they win but defense was quite worrying. If they play with same defense and same lineup the I am pretty sure that Bayern will score huge against them due to bad defense. It was a 9-goal thriller. Even though it was just a friendly match, they scored 2 goals against one of the greatest teams in history. There was no focus on the result, because they were clearly struggling. The match was only a friendly, so it doesn't seem like PSG played competitively. A red card also went PSG's way, so they're doing well with only 10 players. Riyadh All-Stars captured my heart because statistics matter more than winning. |

The match was really unbelievable... At first I thought Man City would have no chance of even a draw, Spurs played so well in the first half! But once the second half started I started to believe in miracles... In the end Man City did the impossible and managed to win this very important match for them...
Spurs are on the hot seat before the first half of the game. Due to Tottenham's failure to maintain their lead in the first half, supporting them may be stressful. In a game that they almost won, how did they let City come back? Arsenal have a game in hand, but the gap between Man City and Arsenal has narrowed to 5 points. |

--- the transfer has now been completed and swiss goalkeeper Yann Sommer is moving to bayern münchen. there he will receive a contract until summer 2025. even if YS would be free this summer, a transfer fee of €8 mio + bonus payments was negotiated  With 19 saves against Bayern Munich, Yann Sommer sets a record. Approximately €10 million has been paid to Bayern Munich for Yann Sommer. This is truly deserved by him. It's his time to shine for Bayern. Age is catching up with Neuer, and he is not irreplaceable. It would have been easy for him to cement his place at Bayern. |

Inter won the Italian Super Cup by beating AC Milan. AC Milan was literally thrashed 3-0 by Inter. As a result of the second goal, Milan started to gain control of the game, putting Inter on the defensive, but they were unable to find a way to break through. After one minute of stoppage time, Milan had the best opportunity of the game, but the ball hit the crossbar. For Milan, this result is quite unexpected, but for Inter, it's party time.

De Gea was the best player of this match, he just saved Manchester United from defeat, he made some very important saves.
Man United has always faced an uphill battle against Crystal Palace, in particular at Old Trafford in the past two seasons. Man Utd will have to accept a loss unless David de Gea saves them. He has served as Man United's savior. If he isn't there, the goal might have more than one. If I'm not mistaken, because of the yellow card that Casemiro received against Crystal Palace, he will be forced to miss the match against Arsenal, this could be a significant loss for ten Hag in such an important match. Ten Hag managed to improve the team very well, but it seems to me that Arsenal are still stronger now. Maybe it will be another draw for Manchester United, but I'm more inclined to think that Arsenal will win.
As a result of picking up a yellow card against Crystal Palace, Casemiro will miss Man United's match against Arsenal. It feels like a loss to them that they drew against Crystal Palace. This narrow escape just showed that United will drop points sooner or later. On Sunday, let's hope they turn things around again. |

BTW, Saudi businessman Mushref al-Ghamdi has purchased a VIP ticket for the above mentioned match for £2,200,000, which will allow him to meet both Messi and Ronaldo in person.
It's good to mention that the revenue of the match will be sent to Al Ihsan Charity Assosiation. This is football in its brightest picture. We are going to watch exciting match in theory, but I don't think the players will spend much energy in the field considering their duties with regard to their local leagues. There's no point in doing this unless he's a multimillionaire. It is called ultimate happiness to watch them together for the last time since there will be no more meetings. For £2,200,000, someone will buy a seat in a stadium to watch a friend match, money that was intended to go to charity. There would have been a change if it had been done. |

Will bitcoin price increase in January?
Is bitcoin getting back to $20000 in January or not?
we have been in a downtrend for a long time, and In January this Bitcoin is in a trend point that shows up, The value of today's Bitcoin reached $ 20k almost through $ 21k, we see that in a few days Bitcoin started its recovery with one day $ 1 k and this has happened in the past few days, looking at the chart, it can be predicted that in January this Bitcoin will be in the range of $ 20k maybe it could be more. We have a positive feeling that 2023 will be a better year than the previous years, where the previous year was a bloody Bitcoin year, we believe that this year will definitely be better, and seeing slightly improved market conditions, changes to the green chart started at the beginning of the year and coincided in this January. It is possible for anything to happen. For the market to gain some confidence, more positive stories and predictions are needed. People will be back to investing if we just get rid of the FUD. This really is as simple as it gets. There are a lot of emotional aspects to this market, but it is good to see the market conditions slightly improving. There is an uptrend in Bitcoin, but there needs to be a cooling off period. I would like to see the daily 200MA returned at least. |

Harry Maguire is set to be sold by Man United in the summer. As long as Maguire goes and new center backs are brought in, Man United are on the right track. A number of clubs are interested, including West Ham. There is a report that West Ham is interested in loaning the €87m Man United defender. Can both parties benefit from this deal? However, I wish him the best of luck in his next chapter.

What a fabulous batting by Shubhman Gill. He became the youngest batter to score a double century. If he had also gotten out cheaply like the others then India wouldn't have given a massive target of 349 runs. Another dominating performance by India because of this young batter. Now it's time for the bowlers to get wickets.
He is breaking records at the age of 23, what a talent. Besides surpassing Sachin Tendulkar's record, he now has the highest ODI score at Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. He becomes the fifth Indian to score a double century in ODIs. As a result of his sensational double century, Indians reach 349/8 in their innings. |

It's a great combination from both strong team, we can say this will be exciting match to match because king Kohli is in home , let's see how new Zealand can stop him
India's captain Rohit Sharma has called the toss and elected to bat first in the first ODI. It is great to see SK Yadav and Ishan Kishan get a chance to play. With limited options, they worked their hearts out and it's now time to clinch the job. The team needs Umran to gain more experience ahead of the World Cup, so Shardul should be replaced by Umran. |

Liverpool qualified to next round FA Cup after beat Wolves with score 1-0 and playing at Anfield Wolves was slightly dominate the match but Liverpool can stole goal from Elliot on the first half but this the only goal until end of this match and Gakpo was playing since early minutes but unfortunately he still cannot able to makes his first goal with Liverpool and this is maybe not too important winning but probably can boosted their mentally because this weekend Liverpool have to faced Chelsea and this is hard match for them considering their condition is not in the good shape
I am now waiting to see the players of these two teams Liverpool vs Chelsea. Now I am very worried about which team will win this match because Liverpool and Chelsea are two very strong teams so I don't know which team to bet on. Chelsea vs Liverpool still It looks like we can enjoy a very nice game between the two teams. Chelsea will take on Liverpool on 21 January. It is very difficult to decide the outcome, and your bet may end up losing. Liverpool and Chelsea will both aim to redeem their teams' reputations with a win. Both sides need to win to move closer to a top-four spot, and the Chelsea vs Liverpool match couldn't have come at a better time. |

Xavi did good management and has built up Barcelona very good but this trophy was contributed by poor defense of Real Madrid too. Real Madrid opened their box to Barcelona and in this match, Barcelona simply converted mostly all opportunities thy have to goals.
Seems not bad with first trophy for Barcelona in this season after winning Spanish Super Cup, exactly I don't see any special thing have contribution by Xavi after eliminating in Champion League group stage. However, Barcelona have good defense in this season in La Liga with 6 goals conceded but can't consistency on Champion League. Still left many matches in La Liga and Barcelona have important match at UEFA Europe League playoff round against Manchester United, how long achievement by Barcelona in this season with Europe League and La Liga tittle will be success or not the era Xavi Hernandez with Barcelona. Xavi is very happy because he can beat Real Madrid and can win his first trophy as Barcelona coach, Xavi really hopes that this is not the last trophy, but this could be the beginning of a revival for Xavi as a coach, Barcelona have won the Spanish Super Cup 14 times, even though Barcelona already eliminated from the champions league but barcelona's performance in the domestic league is still very good, because until now barcelona still manages to lead the standings, by collecting 41 points from the 16 matches that have been played, hopefully Barcelona can return to its glory under Xavi's tutelage. What's the point of him not being happy? As Barcelona coach, Xavi has won the Spanish Super Cup for the first time. Since 2010, Ancelotti had not lost a final, but Barca topped Real Madrid following the impressive performance in the domestic league. Barcelona's winning doesn't make them better than Real Madrid, but it improves their champions league performance from next season just like they did in the domestic league. After working hard, Xavi pulled Barcelona to the top, and it's just beginning for Barcelona to return to glory. |

For the calendar year 2022, he was India's leading run scorer. As a result of his unavailability, Rajat Patidar has the opportunity to represent India in ODI series. NZ will be a real challenge after a strong performance against SL. |

It has been decided to extend Pepe's contract at Porto until June 2025. Therefore, Pepe can continue to play until his new contract expires at forty two. Among the most complete central defenders in the history of the game. The evergreen defender should keep going as long as he enjoys it, now it seems like he may stay for years to come.

I wouldn't say that the KSA team is too strong. But they have a team of goodwill. KSA's win against Argentina was unexpected. Because they didn't win any match in the group stage. Saudi Arabia is a rich country and they are ready to spend money to strengthen themselves. They are also interested in hosting the World Cup. This is why they want to make themselves stronger. They are now adding talented veteran players to the Arab League. As a result, maybe their domestic players will become more experienced in the future. At the same time, more talented young players will emerge.
Saudi Arabia may not be a very strong team, but they have made huge improvements during the last few years. And all the money that is being poured in to Saudi football is finally giving some returns. And there is still room for improvement. The inclusion of players such as Ronaldo to the local league will definitely result in an improvement in the playing standards. But unlike the case with Qatar (who spent around $280 billion to host the world cup), they are spending money more cautiously. In the next 5-10 years time, Saudi Arabia will be one of the top-20 teams in global football. Al-Nassr FC had signed Cristiano Ronaldo, a world-class footballer. As a result, Saudi Arabian football gained a greater sense of visibility and prestige as a result of the signing. Due to these improvements, the national team will be able to play at a higher level and be more competitive. There seems to be a real commitment on the part of Saudi Arabia to see the improvements, so they will get themselves in a better position very soon. |

PSG have been inconsistent again to win after losing against Rennes in Ligue 1. I don't understand what made PSG so difficult in this match, Messi's return should have made the game more lively. Looking at PSG's statistics, they are far superior with 6 shots on target, but it seems that this is just a matter of finishing which keeps PSG from scoring. With this result, PSG cannot widen the distance from Lens on the standings, while Lens only needs 3 more points to match PSG's points.
As a result of PSG's defeat, the competition for points in the temporary standings has become even more fierce because there is not such a large distance between the teams in the top three for now. I also didn't expect why PSG could be beaten by Rennes, even though Neymar and Messi also played in that match, but they also couldn't score goals to save PSG from losing to Rennes even though that also didn't change PSG's position as top of the standings. Did you see the reverse statistic? It was precisely Rennes who had more opportunities than Paris Saint Germain, they were only superior in possession. However, their mastery of the match did not allow them to win this match by losing to the hosts with a narrow score. I don't know if I'm happy or sad about this result. The reason is, the defeat of Paris Saint Germain opened up opportunities for other teams to get closer. This will make the competition in Ligue 1 even more interesting because they have very tight points. It can also make the league even more competitive. As a result, PSG has suffered two defeats in the last three league games! It's part of the game to lose, and as long as this result makes the league more competitive, I'm happy. Whatever the case may be, winning all the time makes football seem boring and uninteresting. It is unacceptable for PSG to have such statistics since only one shot was on target in the whole game. Just three points separate them from the top of Ligue 1. |

~ The match was just like kids play with pro  , so shameful performance for team SiriLanka, they lost Thier confident when they got such a huge target. If you remember, in the first ODI India scored 373 runs and Sri Lanka in return scored 306 runs, so you cannot simply claim this pathetic performance as the pressure of the target but the pitch itself might be the reason and definitely the bowlers especially Mohammed Siraj even though unfortunately he missed on a 5 wicket haul in the match he ripped the Sri Lankan batting. We can't say there's no pressure. Sri Lanka had much pressure, looking the big target in front of them. 350 runs and 390 runs have got much difference. Even in the first match Sri Lanka started same as this match, but the scoring from Nissanka kept the match alive and made other players contribute. This time the same didn't work and the bowlers took advantage. It is the bowling that brought such a win for India. Actually, I think Sri Lanka had a lot of pressure. Because the target was really big. And Sri Lanka was under pressure from the start of the chase. But there is no excuse for them to perform so badly like this. In the first match, Sri Lanka at least tried to reach the total. And the score which they reached was actually decent and respectable. But this time things did not work out for them. They got all out for 72. That is just a shameful performance from Sri Lanka. For India, it was a record-breaking Sunday, but for Sri Lanka, it was an embarrassing one. As a result of pressure, Sri Lanka did not play well. Against a formidable Indian bowling attack, Sri Lanka produced one of their weakest innings. I congratulate the Indian cricket team on their highest-ever win over Sri Lanka. It has been a promising start to the New Year for India. |
