Cricket match prediction discussions

[barbara44]

There is going to be no issue if the BCCI says that there is no issue. After all, the ICC does everything according to the suggestion of the BCCI. The problem is BCCI is not going to let this one go. It is very clear that cricket is facing these types of problems because one country not having a good relationship with the other.

Political relation I mean.

I am not saying that Pakistan is a 100% safe country. So the security issue that India is showing right now is not absolutely baseless. 

Anyway, I think the venue will be changed. and Pakistan will not be able to do basically anything about it.

India vs Pakistan is always having big impact of political tension so right now things are completely going into Indian favor because Pakistan is suffering due to regime change and mostly as baseless issue is rising by few peoples about Pakistan internal affairs is not right because all things are going under good control and as PSL is having their matches without any problem all watching its positive but sadly personal ego is issue and with this all BCCI influence in ICC is also now have another big impact on this all just because of this we will have never good things are going to happen in this game in next 15 to 20 years.

Now about Asia Cup most chances as I already posted this will be postponed or ACC will go with neutral venue option because they will never go with current venue which is Pakistan and main reason is Pakistan was not in favor of last Asia Cup held in India and due to Covid-19 issues this was moved into the UAE, so now they also want to do same thing and this all is never all about relationship or situation in Pakistan.

Can someone explain this to me?

After a decade of ridiculing Hinduism and actively encouraging to celebrate Christian festivals, why Virat Kohli is doing ghar vaapsi now? He doesn't look happy though (look at the last photo on lower right).

I am wondering what will be next. Maybe Hard-dick Pandya will acknowledge that Himanshu Pandya is his biological father and not some random Jamaican as he has been claiming till now? Or maybe Rohit Sharma will stop eating beef (at least publicly)... LOL.. the possibilities are endless.

Everyone knows that Virat Kohli is not in a very good form at present, especially in the first second third test of India and Australia, the statistics of Virat Kohli's runs are given below.
1st test (Nagpur)
VK 12

2nd test (Dellhi)
VK 1st innings 44
VK 2nd innings 20

3rd test Endoore
VK 1st innings 22
VK 2nd innings 13

His Test cricket career is going through a rough patch so he along with his wife Anushka Sharma visited the Mahakaleshwar Jytirlingo temple to offer pooja and poured water on Shiva's head. And prayed to God to return his cricket career to the good form it was before.
Virat Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma went to the temple to offer pooja for good runs from his bat in the fourth Test between India and Australia from March 9, and at one point during the prayer Virat Kohli's face showed tension.

It's their belief to seek blessings for better cricket and runs and that's for sure virat kohli performance is below average recently and he need to show some improvement before two important tournaments of the year world cup and Asia Cup otherwise he'll be dropped out of team like kl Rahul.

I am guessing that Anushka had a very big say in this. And another thing is why wouldn't Virat Kohli do this? After all, he is an Indian and also follows Hinduism. So if he wants to stay in India he will have to abide by the rules.

By the way, I honestly think that we should leave this man doing whatever he wants to do regarding his religion. I mean everyone should have that freedom. Now there are a lot of unbelievable things happening regularly, that's another story. But a person who wants to be a religious person is probably something we should not nitpick about too much.

My question is why there is a sudden change in heart, after abusing Hinduism for so long. But I agree. He is free to do whatever he want and no one is going to stop him. That said, it will be a good idea to stay away from giving advise on how to celebrate Hindu festivals and all that. If Virat minds his own business, then I am sure that the public will also extend the same policy for him. BTW, I am wondering why Vamika is missing from the temple visit. Virat and Anushka didn't brought her to the temple?

The answer to this is very simple. When you are in good form and have no worries, you tend to forget about your religion and keep it behind. Success and excessive money are the major reason why people just ignore religion. But when they have some problems in their career business, they come back to their religion.

I guess the same thing is happening with Virat Kohli. He has been IN and OUT of good form and this may have made his mind to return back to Hinduism and hope the nature is again favorable to him. I don't see any other reason for him to do all this.

I appreciate the change of heart. But if he wants to take care of his lack of form, then he needs to practice more. Either he can take part in the Indian domestic cricket, or try his luck with the Sheffield Shield or County Championship. He spends most of his time on domains other than cricket and then he gets disappointed when he fails to score runs. Also, it will be a good idea to start behaving properly (on and off the field). Picking up needless quarrels with opposition players can result in lack of focus while batting.

The creator can give someone honor, respect, money and wealth as well as take away. Virat Kohli's cricketing career was good but his behavior often caused a storm in the media. He didn't care about anyone. When pride rises in man, it begins to fall. For some it is immediate and for some it may be after a long time. I think Virat Kohli now wants to step down from his place of pride. Maybe he realized even it too late. If so then it is a good initiative for him. I think he wants to be free of sin and return to the field.

Change of heart can happen to any person. Probably that has happened to Virat Kohli. I know it is hard to believe. But people change.
About Vamika Kohli I think they are trying to keep her away from social media and the internet. Which is obviously the smart thing to do.

Probably he understands that he needs God on his side if he wants to continue performing as he did before. Maybe he thinks that God is frowning upon him. So probably he is determined to satisfy God.

Even I never like to jump into things like this but right now situation is interesting, so I have to give my views as well because I believe creator is always with us even we are involved with any religion or have atheist's views, but one thing is surely while you are at best and doing things which are giving you satisfaction then mostly we avoid having any religion and enjoy with our success but as downfall started then surely we need someone to hold us, and we surely feel uncomfortable right now things happening with Virat Kohli who was at his best and never post any religion pictures or have anything related to religion but now as his downfall is extended he and his wife Anushka needs to be had sympathies and religion related views as well which is good even I have no positive about this, but he needs and doing good for him and his family as well.

Transition is part of life. Everyone experience it at some point and this couple have experienced it now. We seek the support of God when we feel ourselves down. Maybe for some reason the couple might be feeling down and that might've taken them towards the temple. In every religion the holy places used to give peace of mind, I'm not into their personal and nothing offensive, my inner mind says they had planned for kids.

Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) has entered in to a deal with Sony Sports for media rights during the 2023-2027 cycle. The deal is worth only around $23 million, although there was a bidding war between Sony and Disney Star. Now the attention will be shifting to BCCI and PCB tenders, which will come out in the next few months. Currently the BCCI is having a 5-year deal with Disney-Star for 2018-2023, which is worth ₹6,277 crore. For the next cycle (2024-2028), we can expect this amount to increase by manytimes.

This is part of life and phases which comes with passage of time in anyones life,  early in your life you are carefree and you just focus on your career and fun and in later stages after getting married and kids your prospective and scope of life changes you focus on serious and different things in life .
Sames happening with virat Kohli.

This is definitely a good aspect. They are returning to the religion. Every person, irrespective of the religion he practices, if he comes out of the religion, his sense of humanity gradually diminishes. It is not possible to know if something like this happened between Virat Kohli or his family. But it is good for them that they are back. Because when people do not find their peace, then there is no condition except to reach God.

@Sithara007 that’s a very raw deal for Srilanka, I’m surprised that they have settled for so less and in my personal opinion they should have turned down this deal and called in for fresh bids. Furthermore I expect Pakistan will receive better bids as most of the countries are now visiting it, and obviously the highest bids will go to team India and I wonder if it’ll beat the previous records what do you think?

I am personally interested to see how far Bermuda can go . Still remember watching Bermuda play in the world cup a long time ago. I honestly do not even remember when was the last time Bermuda played in the world cup. I just remember some really fat players diving to catch the ball .

I think you have no idea about Sri Lankan market which is currently under pressure due to many political and financial and these media rights all depend on these factors so it's still good deal for them because they are not populated and developed like we have many other countries but if we have positive development then surely things could be changed in near future here I have feeling as mentioned in above post India and Pakistan are also going for the deals here India could be best with Pakistan is also going to suffer with their internal issues and many other factors so still a good and ideal contract for the SLCB.

Here we have few other factors are also which are not helping these subcontinent countries for having better deals and more money for their requirements due to poor structure and poor strategies which are also giving them not better deals in media rights which are currently having big impact in developed countries and now in India as well.

For sure the highest deals will go with India. The market is big and the revenue out of cricket from India is massive. With more and more leagues being conducted throughout the year it is possible for them to make the best out of it. With the PSL, the cricketing in Pakistan looks to be in better position. Maybe this can have them better price than the past.

They don't have a lot of options. The media rights deal with Sony for the previous cycle (2018-2023) was more lucrative when compared to the current one. But this time Sony bargained really hard, since the number of matches involving India is low. SLC did some last minute negotiations with the BCCI to schedule one more Indian tour, but the packed calendar for the Indian team didn't allowed that. SLC is in a difficult situation. Their franchise league is also not brining in a lot of revenues, and for the near future they will be dependent heavily on the funds from ICC.

It was Dwayne Leverock, who took that catch. 2007 was the only occasion when Bermuda qualified for the ODI cricket world cup. They played 3 matches, and lost all of them (against India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka). And they lost all these matches by big margins - lost to Sri Lanka by 243 runs, lost to India by 257 runs and then went down against Bangladesh by 7 wickets.
