Cricket match prediction discussions

[Marvell1]

Actually, it should be a clean sweep even though England is not probably going to play their main team. This is going to be a good experience for both teams and the Netherlands will have a lot to learn. I am actually really curious to see how England does in this series against the Netherlands especially after they have appointed multiple coaches for multiple formats of cricket. England is obviously no match for the Netherlands. So, I think this might be a one-sided affair.

England has announced the 14-member squad for the ODI series against Netherlands later this month. Three uncapped players are included in the squad - Brydon Carse, David Payne and Luke Wood. Since the test series against New Zealand will be going on at the same time, members of the test squad are not included for the series against Netherlands. And these matches will form a part of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League. Right now England is in a very comfortable position, with 95 points from 15 matches. A clean sweep could take them to the top of the table. 

I believe that England very well know that they’ll win this series easily, and that’s why they’re keen to use this series to test their reserve player’s which isn’t a bad idea as those player’s will get invaluable experience of playing on the big stage.

Good to see associate team like Netherlands playing against big teams like Newzealand and England. Right now West Indies are touring Netherlands for 3 match ODI series. In the first ODI performance of Netherlands was not bad they scored 240 runs batting first which WI chased D/L method. Associate teams more matches like that to improve there quality of cricket.

Saurav Ganguly leaves as BCCI president role? Prior he has shared a cryptic tweet, following his tweet he seeks supports as he will enters another part in his life. Pundits isolated since his tweet very spread in sensational manner. Anything you're doing that doesn't imply that you will be good or bad. Our due respect to you Dada. All the best on your best course of action.

Is he actually leaving the role of BCCI presidency?

All I am seeing is that people are spreading rumors about it. I also think that it was just a to it and nothing major has happened about his presidency role in the BCCI. Well, at least I have not found any proof of that.

Sourav Ganguly not resigning confirms Jay Shah after BCCI president's cryptic tweet goes viral

Probably it is just people overreacting to something. I don't think he is going to leave the presidency.

Still curious about the news from Ganguly. What is he mentioning, when he says that he is going to enter another phase of his life? Another phase means that it is not related to sports. Maybe he is planning to enter politics? A few years back, there were rumors that he may become the chief minister face of BJP in West Bengal. But before the 2021 state assembly elections, he rejected the offer from BJP and the party suffered a humiliating defeat. Is he planning to join some other party now? BJP has a history of mistreating celebrities who join them, and examples are Sreesanth and Gambhir. I don't want Ganguly to end up like them.

Ganguly was shitposting  

It turns out he's just starting a new marketing venture, nature of venture is still unknown. There were some rumor of his resignation or may be joining politics. Like getting Rajya sabha ticket from BJP or TMC.

Jay Shah has cleared speculations regarding Ganguly resignation. Don't know what he mean by this tweet, let's wait for few more days before things get clear. Ganguly has got BCCI charge when it's already on top, he has very little work to do rather just maintain the current status.

Politics? Makes sense considering the fact that they can earn loads of money in a passive manner. Imran Khan is the only cricketer who made it big in politics so far, but screwed up big-time recently due to various reasons.

I appreciate cricketers like Gavaskar, Shastri etc who stay dedicated to the game in different forms and don't solely focus on making money.

I won't be surprised if he is nominated to the Rajya Sabha. However, the candidate list is already announced and Ganguly's name is not there. And more importantly, there are no elections to West Bengal Rajya Sabha seats this time, which would rule out the possibility of TMC nominating him (chances are very low anyway, as the relations between the two sides are not good). One possibility is that 7 of the nominated members of Rajya Sabha completed their term on 24th April 2022. Their replacement is yet to be announced. There maybe a chance that Saurav may be nominated there.

His tweet has been connected and the same got viral that Ganguly has resigned the position as President of BCCI. If he is to be nominated, he should resign as a president. I'm not sure, is there anything like one cannot hold two positions. In my opinion he can resign and give path for others, because there were big expectation over his activities. Finally everything happened same as the past. Nothing big has changed.

He is very important personnel in the BCCI. Now if he wants to follow another career in another sphere of life it is absolutely okay but I believe he should concentrate on one job because it is quite impossible for people to handle two big responsibilities.

But I don't think he is resigning from his post in the BCCI. But I believe he should not that a tweet from him can make a lot of difference so he should use Twitter wisely.

The president of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), Sourav Ganguly, set the record straight as he finally unveiled what his cryptic tweet on Wednesday was about. The former India captain launched an  app "Classplus" which will give educators, teachers, and coaches a platform to monetize their content.

Ganguly, President of BCCI have explained about his tweet. He hasn't left BCCI, and he have launched an edu-tech app "Classplus" which is for the educators, teachers and coaches to monetize their content. Everyone are sure about the market situation and have well understood about the ongoing trend of online education. As a result Ganguly have started his own education app. Soon we can see him promoting the app during the match break.

LOL.. this is really crazy.. this guy launched an ordinary app, and he created so much hype for that? BTW, I am a bit worried about the clash of interest here. Byju's is a sponsor for many of the events organized by the BCCI and this new app may be considered as it's competitor. The former is obviously going to be unhappy about it. BTW, I never thought that politics is an area which suits Ganguly. He should aim for something higher within the cricket domain. Why can't he become the next chairman of the ICC?

Yes, I also think that Ganguly is more of a cricket man and not a politician. And yes BYJU'S is a big sponsor and has sponsored the Indian cricket team as well.

Other than that this app has sponsored a lot of other things. Having a new computer is surely not going to be good for them and they are surely not going to be happy about it. Now the question is whether they will do something about it or not. I think it will be funny to see them beefing. Ganguly should stay out of politics and use his big brain in cricket.

One of the popular person who can be seen into controversy have now tossed a tweet that the IPL final match was rigged. He also connected the incident with the president of BCCI stating him as defacto dictator. He mentioned it requires a Public Interest Litigation and government will not do it as he's the son of Amit Shah who is the minister of Home affairs.

Never heard of this guy before. Anyway, people usually say that some IPL matches are rigged without any sort of proof which is why these are simply baseless accusations.

Gujarat Titans did possess an homeground advantage when compared to RR in the finals, but there is also the fact that they performed really well in all stadiums in this season which is why I don't think the final was rigged in any manner whatsoever.

OK.. people outside India might not have heard about this crackpot named Swamy (better known as Xiaomi). Despite his age (he is in his late 80s), he regularly vomit out unfounded allegations against anyone with whom he is having a grudge with. A few years back he alleged that Shashi Tharoor killed his wife (who actually committed suicide). Then once he alleged that the RBI governor is engaged in corruption. Three years ago, he claimed that the leader of the opposition Rahul Gandhi regularly uses cocaine. And each and everytime, these allegations were being made without any proof.

I agree he's going off road lately but I'm an admirer of swamy duo to his work.

-Crusade against corruption.
-Ongoing fight on freeing temple from state's control.
-He was the only capitalist minded individual in the socialist India (he was demonized by everyone back then) and some even say that blueprint of 1991 Economic reform was created by him.  

IMO He used to be one of the sharpest mind, bravest individual in India but now he's getting old and becoming bitter trouble maker for everyone, only because no one offered him Finance ministry.

Well.. I used to admire him as well. But then I realized that he has become too selfish. There are reasons why Nirmala Sitharaman became the finance minister instead of Xiaomi. His policies are too radical (such as eliminating the income tax) and if they are implemented there is a good chance that the economy will collapse. After he was denied the Rajya Sabha nomination, he decided to align with TMC (the main opposition party in India right now). And that was despite the fact that his own policies are diametrically opposite to the TMC ideology. And recently, he tweeted against the imports of Russian crude oil to India. In short, I don't respect him now, especially in matters related to cricket.

[YinShuiSiYuan]

That's very much true. The way IPL matches were played at later part clearly tells the story but no one can dare to investigate that since its a win win situation for icc, bcci and rest of the cricket boards. The only way to recover so much money invested in IPL is through fixing.

Fair enough but it all started with Arun Jaitley, Nirmala Sitharaman came later.

Although i've no doubt that he's big trouble maker for everyone that's why BJP keep him in their camp as they know this guy is more dangerous if he's outside, ask Chidambaram and Sonia Gandhi.
