When I watch Test matches between teams like England, Australia, India and South Africa, I feel that there is a different kind of excitement in Test matches and the beauty of the cricketers is in the Test format, but when other countries outside these countries face each other and when they play Test cricket, I don't know why it is boring to watch the Test format. Currently, different countries are organizing T20 leagues, due to which cricketers from different countries are busy with T20 leagues most of the year, due to which Test cricket is not actually organized in that way, but ICC should take several steps in this regard so that Test cricket does not lose its popularity. I think that when a country organizes a bilateral series, the Test format should be made mandatory so that the future generation is also interested in this Test format. The most prestigious tournament in the Test format is the Test Championship, where one of the teams, Australia, England, South Africa or India, is always the champion, but if this format can be managed differently, maybe the new teams can do well there.

Honestly, the series would have been in India's favor if they won the last test where the margin was so small which is why the English should have been satisfied instead of behaving like imbeciles trying to not allow Jadeja and Sundar achieve their personal milestones.

Stokes, Trott, Archer, Crawley, Brook etc just embarrassed themselves globally for that silly act of theirs towards the end of the game. They'll probably throw childish tantrums if India wins the final test and draws the series.

I agree with Sithara007 here. Every team should be given a chance to qualify and it is not fair to put the top six or five teams in the Olympics and ignore the rest. Even in different sports we have qualifying rounds from different continents and then the top teams participate in ICC and Fifa World cups etc.

The best thing would be to have a pre-qualifying round for all the countries and then the top five may be selected to participate. The host if it's a cricket playing nation would be auto selected, that's understandable.

South African batsmen cannot be praised. Because they batted in Test matches like ODIs, like Lhuan-dre Pretorius who scored 153 runs off 160 balls. Where there were eleven fours and four sixes. Again, Corbin Bosch who scored 100 runs off 124 balls is still unknown. He hit ten fours. On the other hand, Zimbabwe's Tanaka Chivanga gave away 83 runs off 16 balls. And took four wickets. Again, he took two overs medals.

In my opinion Lucknow is far ahead in statistics. This season saw a match between Hyderabad and Lucknow, where Lucknow won by 5 wickets, although the match was at Hyderabad's home ground. But today's match will be at Lucknow's home ground, any team will get a bit more advantage at home, so Lucknow is ahead based on the performance of these two teams. So I think Lucknow can win today's match. And today the match is very important for Lucknow, because to survive in the playoff race, you have to win this match. The three-team playoffs are confirmed. Now one team between Mumbai, Delhi and Lucknow will qualify, Mumbai is far ahead among these three teams.

Today's KKR and Rajasthan Royals match ended in an incredibly breathtaking atmosphere. 22 runs were needed in the last over but those 22 runs were very difficult for Rajasthan Royals but even though Shubam Dubey took 20 runs in one over with two sixes and a boundary, they ultimately had to lose by one run.

If Shubam Dubey had been as aggressive in the last over as he was in the 17th and 18th overs, then he would not have had to concede 22 runs in an over towards the end. Rajasthan Royals could have secured the win long ago but they put the team in a difficult situation by conceding five runs in the 17th and 18th overs, which ultimately led to a one-run defeat. Such a defeat is truly painful and unacceptable.

The points of my mentioned comment were the same that Pakistan team may not have released their T20 squad against New Zealand with a balanced team, If they had a balanced team, maybe their style of play would have been more organized. But an attempt is being made to clearly highlight Pakistan's weaknesses this season. Because the Pakistan team being all out for such a low score might not decorated them.

Most of the few players we see in the Pakistan squad are the new faces, that is the PCB may be obsessed with finding something good. No matter how much Pakistan plays with this same squad, it will not be an easy process to please its fans because they will not get a complete result from this match.

India's squad for Champions Trophy announced.


Surprisingly no Siraj, but IMO Arshdeep is worthy replacement, if not better altogether; doubt he'll get spot in playing XI though as Bumrah and Shami should take the precedent.

Playing XI would be thing see, how they gonna fit Jaiswal in there? Can't afford to sit him out and Gill being VC, unlikely to sit out either. Gill's form being questionable, I would have preferred Jaiswal over Gill otherwise.

Social media is mad for Sanju Samson not being there, but I am ok for him not getting spot.

Are you planning to sell your Bitcoin? If so, then just follow their advice, which is to move it to a DeFi wallet. But I suggest you only transfer a small amount initially, just to test if the transaction goes through successfully. Once you confirm that the process works, that’s the time to transfer your full balance and send it to whichever exchange you prefer for selling your Bitcoins.
