Furthermore, failure to follow the Rules and/or instructions may result in an automatic disqualification from the tournament and subsequently any Prizes

So when Match #1 concludes, a winner will be announced and at that point you can predict Match #2

It's very nice now we have cricket under sponsorship of Sportsbet.io this could be good boost for cricket fans on this forum as they were doing good stuff in past but now with this big breakthrough things could be taken good change.

Cricket fans are surely going to be thankful @Sportsbet, @LFC_Bitcoin and @jeremypwr because with these luxury prizes this competition is going to be hot for them now just 16 days left, but hopefully discussion could be started with all fans will give views about this big event as big teams are ready to give their best for this trophy.

[SATWAT]

Dream come true thanks to @jeremypwr sometime back I was feeling too many sports competition around this forum but no one doing anything big for the cricket even its one of the most famous sports around the world and here on this forum we have big communities like Indians, Pakistani and Bangladeshi those love to this game, but things have never been favorable, but you have done this.

Hopefully all cricket lovers will enjoy and give their contribution in this pool which is going to be had good prizes on every match day.

I also need to praise @LFC_Bitcoin who done hard work for this project and @Sportsbet.io and Steven because with their support this was looking not possible.

Hi LFC_Bitcoin it's pleasure to be the part of that pool sponser by sportsbet, kindly confirm my participation

OP: Predictions in the thread for Games&Rounds will be made until the 19th (ALL) or we can add them before each game...

You known, things always happen... plus those of us who are not very connected to the ICC Champions Trophy need to catch up.

Thank you for this event and the opportunity to open up betting horizons at a time when football has me disconsolate, it is possible that my new income will come from this learning in this Cricket Prediction contest

Fantastic question!
You must wait for the previous Match to end before making your next Tiebreaker Predictions in the Games and rounds thread.
So when Match #1 concludes, a winner will be announced and at that point you can predict Match #2.
Then, rinse and repeat.
You can, however, make your Superbru predictions all at once (similar to our football pools).
It will go fast but it's the most efficient way to maximize Free Bets

Thank you to Sportsbet.io, jeremypwr and LFC_Bitcoin for this opportunity! I am interested in joining this Cricket Prediction Contest. Although I am not very familiar with cricket, I see this as a great chance to learn more about the game while enjoying the excitement of the contest.

[Unknown Op]

Thanks LFC_Bitcoin for organising such a beautiful contest for 2025 ICC Champions Trophy and special thanks to Sportsnet.com for sponsorship. Please LFC_Bitcoin confirm my participation in this contest. I am quite active in cricket sport discussion and hope this experience will be good and everyone will enjoy this prediction contest.

Once again Thanks LFC_Bitcoin and Sportsnet.com. 

[Powerjumboo]

Thank you @LFC_Bitcoin for bringing us such a contest organized by Sportsbet.io. This is my first experience participating in such a contest. I have never participated in any contest before. This is my first time participating in this contest. I hope I can gain experience. Also, I want to clarify one more thing. Can I promote this contest on my local board so that everyone in my local board can know and participate?

I posted this contest on my Nigeria board for everyone to see:

This may be one of the highest paying cricket prediction contests I have seen on bitcointalk. Thanks for this wonderful opportunity and also a big shoutout to Sportsbet.io for the sponsorship.

@LFC_Bitcoin Could you please confirm my participation as i am looking forward to having a great time here during the Champions Trophy and it will definitely be full of fun. I am very much active in cricket discussions and this is the type of prediction contest where I would love to participate. Thanks again, LFC_Bitcoin

As long as Poms are getting humiliated and humbled by Aussies and yours truly Indians again , and start from where they left off in their last T-20 and ODI WC campaign, consider me all in for this pool.

Once, Poms are taken care of then everyone should gang up against handsome but woke Cumdog. He's winning too much nowadays and cost us the WTC final, ODI WC final and BGT. 

[jayce]

This is awesome competition! Good luck LFC_Bitcoin for managing this, and thanks sportsbet for keep sponsoring other popular sports besides football. I dont have good knowledge about cricket, but I'd love to join this. Good luck everyone!

[libert19]

Now, these are exciting prizes. Count me in!

From my experience, cricket contests usually get handful of contestants, but looking at these prizes I am hoping this one will get plenty, already seeing few new faces.

Edit: Typo correction

[xLays]

Like Jayce I also have no idea about this sport and event the ICC Champions Trophy, but I want to join since it’s free entry. I’ll probably just base my picks on the odds of the matches. This will be the second tournament I’ll participate in on sportsbets.io, the first one is the English Premier League sportsbet pool. For sure, we’ll see familiar names from the EPL pool. Please count me in LFC_Bitcoin. Thanks!

[Popkon6]

I bet on Premier League on Sportbet but I want to bet on this ICC Champions Trophy. I am very happy to bet here because every betting line is very good, but if I can join this ICC Champions Trophy I will feel very blessed.
Tournaments are very exciting and most gamblers bet the most on these matches, but it is very exciting for everyone.

[MusaPk]

Thanks LFC_Bitcoin for bringing this up.

Pakistan is organizing ICC event after a gap of almost 30 years, last time we have ICC event was 1996 ODI World Cup. Since then it's a dry period. The whole country is now excited for this event.

Sportsbet.io has done the right move by sponsoring this mega Cricket event here, it will defiantly be a big success.

Count me in too and please send me Superbru link to register for this event.

[cryptofrka]

Well, I played NFL so why not Cricket as well..

Watched only a few games of the mighty Estonia, unfortunately this event is a bit too much for them
