Zimbabwe Twenty20 Tri-Series
South Africa won the first match against Zimbabwe and i was expecting this result. Zimbabwe didn't had a good batting start. They lost early wickets but later in the game, Sikandar Raza made a half century and he was accompanied by Ryan Burl who made 29 runs. 141 runs were never going to be enough against the strong South African batting. Although no one scored a half century from South Africa but innings from Rubin Hermann for 45 runs and Dewald Brevis 41 runs were enough for the South Africans to secure a win.
The third team in this tri-series is New Zealand and they will play in the next game on 16 July.

England did not do very well in the second innings. Their innings ended with just 192 runs. Which is definitely much less than the first innings. But India is not batting very well either. They lost four wickets in just 58 runs. But it is not clear which team will win in the end. At this point, both the possibilities are working. Especially if any of the batsmen of the Indian team can be set on the pitch, then India can also win that match without any pressure. KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant are also on the pitch, due to which there is still a possibility of India winning.
This match is really close. England did not score much in their second turn which gave India chance. But India also started badly losing four wickets quickly. Still with KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant now batting India could definitely win if one of them stays in and scores much of runs but England is bowling really well at this time so anything can happen tomorrow is result day so let's see who will win. Right now either team could take win making it very exciting game.Still there are multiples chances for the team England to win this amazing contest. Indian batters were showing so much aggression as well as their bowlers when they were on field but now when they came to bat, they also got confused.
India already lost their 4 wickets at just 58 runs so England have to restrict inside this little target and try to use multiple techniques to get more and more wickets because if India wants they could go easily and with the help of running between the wickets, they can chase the target but on top tomorrow is the last day so it would be amazing.
Not only you but every Bangladeshi supporter has criticized Bangladesh after seeing Bangladesh's past performance. I stopped watching Bangladesh's game at the beginning of today's match, especially when two Bangladesh wickets fell for nine runs. But the extraordinary performance that Bangladesh performed and won by 83 runs is really beyond our imagination. None of us imagined that Bangladesh would win by 83 runs by all-outing Sri Lanka in this match today. But now Bangladesh has to maintain this performance and win the series by defeating Sri Lanka in the next match. Bangladesh's supporters have to regain their confidence and increase their love for cricket.
You are right, I also did not imagine that Bangladesh would win but in the end surprised me. Both the opening batsmen of Bangladesh got out in the 1st two overs yesterday, which disappointed everyone. But in the end Liton Das performed brilliantly, after a long time I saw such a good performance from Liton Das. Shamim Hosain performed very well which is commendable, but he missed half century for just 2 runs. However, both Bangladesh's batting and bowling have been very good, due to which Bangladesh have won easily. Now Bangladesh will have to do well in the match later and win the series. As a fan of Bangladesh, I feel very good, I congratulate the Bangladesh team.In the first game, Sri Lanka won the match and they being confident today I was expecting the same results but when Bangladesh were batting there was nothing surprising then the whole game turned into the favor of Bangladesh team, back to back wickets were lost by Sri Lanka and at the end of the day, Bangladesh won the second match of the series by 83 runs.
Now the final game will be interesting that Bangladesh and Sri Lanka both teams cannot take each other lightly. It is set to play at 16 July at Colombo.
Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
West Indies bowlers have made a great start, good bowling and all out Australia for 225. No Australian batsman has been able to stay on the wicket for long. No batsman has been able to complete 50 runs. It was a bad day for Australia. Among the West Indies bowlers, Summer Joseph took 4 wickets for 33 runs in 17.3 over, another two bowlers Jayden Seales and Justin Geaves took 3 wickets each. Stopping the Australian team in the first innings at such a low score means that I think if the West Indies can bat well in this Test, then there is a possibility of at least a draw in the match. West Indies are still behind by 209 runs and they still have 9 wickets in hand. The West Indies batsmen failed miserably in the first two Tests, which resulted in a great victory for Australia. West Indies team will be expected to at least draw in this Test to avoid a whitewash.
This is not the first time WI bowlers have bowled out Australians on low total. Main issue with WI is their batting, WI batsmen are continuously undoing the hard work done by their bowlers. If Aussies have scored 225 runs in first innings then I am sure WI won't be able to collect even 150 runs in first innings. Shamar Joseph is good entry in WI bowling lineup but he alone can't win every test match for WI. This is last test and WI must win that to avoid a whitewash at home and the only way they can win the last test is by batting well.
West Indies lost the single wicket, they just have to tip and tip, that is it nothing else. Should probably not go for the boundaries, try to avoid them and go for single and doubles instead and the focus should be to bat as long as possible.
As per the wicket that West Indies lost, the batsmen Kevlon Anderson, he went to play the ball in the cover and he was targeting drive to get four but it was his main mistake, he was facing starc who used to trap batsmen by using his magic of swing. He did inswing and Kevlon Anderson had no idea, went for drive and accidently bowl came in and he got out.
Re: When your kid talk about Bitcoin don't assume it's all good
If my kid is still too young, I wouldn’t teach them about Bitcoin yet as they likely won’t be interested anyway. And honestly, it’s too risky for them to learn about it early on, especially once they start earning. That could easily lead to gambling behavior, which isn’t far off when you're dealing with volatile assets.
IMO, there’s a right time for everything. Since Bitcoin is a high-risk investment or asset, it shouldn't be introduced at a very young age. Let kids be kids first... when they grow up and mature, that’s when they’ll be better equipped to understand and handle things like Bitcoin responsibly.

Your decisions will be okay by you because as for me 13 years is a good age bracket enough for me to start introducing Bitcoin to my kids, I believe if they start leaning especially the basics before getting to 18 they will become more grounded with Bitcointalk knowledge including the potential risks and benefits, if kids grow up to a certain point where they are even earning it also means that they are are very much responsible for their actions and reactions, the only thing you can do is to guide them ass much as you can while they have their final decision.
The future is of Artificial Intelligence, blockchain, big data, Crypto and BitcoinBTC and everyone is expected to know about them from basis to the level one is involved with them in their professional and daily life. A 13 year old kid understand things well and he or she should know about the basis of bitcoin at least. Ideally, one should tell the kids the basics about Bitcoin and also introduce them chatgpt where they can query and find more details about this. Teenage is an age of learning, and luckily, we have so much information available online that never existed before.
Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
England have been completely devastated, especially with 4 of England's top order batsmen out for 87 runs. Mohammad Siraj has been successful in this session, especially by dismissing two reliable batsmen, Ben Duckett and Ollie Pope, and enabling England to face a batting disaster. England will definitely lose this match because no matter how well England's middle order batsmen perform in the second innings, they will not be able to put pressure on India if they cannot build a big partnership. Since victory or defeat will depend on the runs in the second innings, England will definitely lose if they cannot score a big score.
England got all out at 192 runs in the 2nd innings. This was not expected from them and probably it was the pressure of the innings and to survive at least two or three sessions and they could not handle the pressure well. Joe Root was the highest score with 40 runs. Almost everyone from the England team started the innings but they got out when they should have been thinking of creating a partnership and staying on the wicket. They seems to be in a hurry and have no clue on how to take this innings forward.
Now, this should be an easy win for the India team. No matter how well they bowl now, there is no way they can restrict the Indian team to under 192 runs.
I am expecting a lot so that if Bangladesh wins the second T20I, the third ODI match will be very interesting.
Bangladesh have been able to put pressure on the Sri Lankan batting line and Sri Lanka have lost 2 wickets for 21 runs. Now if Bangladesh can fall wickets at regular intervals very quickly then there may be a chance. However, Bangladesh's Mustafizur Rahman's bowling is not as good as before. If his bowling performance had been the same as before, Bangladesh could have easily won by setting a target of 178 runs. However, Shariful Islam was successful again and Sri Lanka lost another wicket, meaning Sri Lanka lost three wickets for 25 runs.Finally Bangladesh are in a position to win a T20 match against the Sri Lanka. There are only a few happy occasions for the Bangladesh team in this tour and today can be one of them. Sri Lanka now further needs 92 runs in 36 balls and this is impossible with only two wickets in hand.
Earlier, Bangladesh didn't had a good display of batting. But it was just the innings from Litton Das (who made 72 runs) and then we had Towhid Hridoy and Shamim Hossain making some quick runs that lead them to make 187 runs. Apart from these three batsmen, there was a complete disaster from the rest of the players but thankfully to the Bangladesh bowlers, they will still win this match.
Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
England would want to make some 400+ runs tomorrow and the first session on the last day before declaring to try to make India all out.
So you saying that England would make 400+ runs in four sessions and then India will be all out in the just two session on the last day
That's not possible because England is playing against a strong Indian team and not any club level team where you think that England will have such an easy win.I don't think both teams would be thinking in terms on how to win this match, I guess both team main focus would be on how to save the match first and then think of a win, if there is any chance. Keeping this approach, I am sure we won't find any eagerness in the England batting to score quick runs at least for the first session today.
England women outstanding efforts winning two consistent T20 matches against India women but they lost series with 3-2. In last match of series England women won match by five wickets and chase down a target of 168 runs in a loss of five wickets. Danni Wyatt-Hodge played a aggressive inning scoring 56 runs from just 37 balls. The man of The Match is Charlie Dean for his amazing bowling performance picked three important wickets by just giving only 23 runs and restricted India women under 170 runs. India women bowler's tried their well especially Deepti Sharma picked two crucial wickets by giving 31 runs and Arundhati Reddy also pick up two wickets but England woman win match last ball of 20th over.
This was a close and interesting match and England Women were the winners at the end. The reason that they were able to chase this score was because they had wickets in hand. Sophia Dunkley and Danni Wyatt-Hodge had a 100 runs partnership for the opening wicket and after such a start you would expect them to win comfortably but still the Indian bowlers fought back hard and didn't let the England team have an easy win. Tammy Beaumont would be happy that her team is able to win another match.
Keep an eye on next update of Unstoppable wallet, they are adding support for Monero soon.
They also announced more updates in future to enable anonymous swaps between Bitcoin, Monero and other coins.
It is good to have competition with Cake wallet and give people options to choose what they like more.

The only thing that concerns me if they will be able add support from Monero seamlessly without the users facing the sync issues. We have seen that they still not be able to resolve the LTC syncing issue despite claiming in lot of updates that these issues have been resolved. I hope we do not face any such issues when they add XMR.
Even the other privacy coin ZEC (Zcash) takes considerably more time syncing
Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
India is not batting in the second innings, India is batting in the first innings. So far India has collected 201 runs losing 3 wickets. KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant both batted brilliantly and put on a partnership of 96 runs. KL Rahul remains unbeaten on 79 and Rishabh Pant remains unbeaten on 47. This pair is important for India because if the pair does not last long then the pressure will be on the next batsmen. So KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant have to make their partnership bigger. However, India are trailing by 186 runs so far. I think if the Indian batsmen can bat patiently well then they can meet this target and lead. Now let's see how many runs India can score in the first innings.
The Indian team is batting well despite that unnecessary run out of Rishabh Pant. We don't often see a run-out in a test match. He was batting on 74 runs and had he not been run out, we would have seen him make his century. Earlier, KL Rahul was out after making his century. India bats deep down the order and hence they would not only make 387 runs but maybe make 40 to 50 more runs. Ravindra Jadeja and Nitish Kumar Reddy are looking set. However, the only concerning thing is that we are in the 3rd session of the third day and we may not have much time left in this test match to see both the 2nd innings of India and England.
Last match of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup Europe Region Final is currently underway, with Italy batting first against the Netherlands. If Italy either wins this match, or lose it by a small margin then they qualify for the T20I World Cup of 2026. But ramifications of a win today is much more than that. Participation fee for the 2024 T20I World Cup was $225,000 and additionally, $31,154 per match was distributed among the winners of each match. And these amounts are much higher than the annual funding received by Italy from the ICC.
Italy lost this match by a big margin, In fact the Netherlands team won it by 9 wickets. But good luck for them that even after having a poor defeat, they qualified for the T20 World Cup that would be played next year in India. This is Italy first ever participation in any ICC tournament and man they are happy. Their captain Joe Burns told the media that they gonna win every match they play in the world cup. High ambitions from the captain and the team.
Anyways, I felt sad for the Scotland team. I really wished they would have Qualified with Netherlands, but that didn't happen. They play more better cricket than Italy but somehow can't make it.
England W vs India W 5th T-20I
Today will be the fifth match of the T20 series between India Women vs England Women. England women could not perform as expected at home. India Women won the series by winning three out of four matches. So today's match is not important for Indian women. However, in the last match England women batted first and collected 126 runs in the allotted overs which was not enough to win, India women easily chased the target. Now India women will be ahead based on performance. If England women want to win then they have to do both batting and bowling well. India women will win today too.

Although Indian Women have already won the series but still this match is important, especially for the England team. They would ideally like to win this last match and end this series on a high note. This hasn't been a good series for the England team. We know that England Women are the best team when it come to women's cricket but this time they couldn't perform all that well.
The England team batting isn't upto the mark. They have been making low score like in the first game they made only 113 runs. Also in the last game they could only make 126 runs. You cannot win T20 matches if you make below par score.
Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
India felt some pressure in the beginning where Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed early but KL Rahul & K Nair helped India to reach 74 runs from that pressure but it was thought that Shubman Gill might give India something special in this match but Shubman Gill could not do well in this innings. However, KL Rahul and Rishabh Pant are both trying to build a big partnership and if India can build a big partnership in this case, then it can be said that they will be able to give a run lead in the first innings. So far, India have lost three wickets but have scored 143 runs, while India are currently trailing by 242 runs.
England were batting first and got the lead of more than 350 so that was a really great job but then when India came to bat, I was expecting so see some good performance by the early players including Jaiswal and others but when Jaiswal came, he got out early but it is not a big deal because obviously each player doesn't need to perform in each game or each day.
However, on the other hand, I was looking for Shubman Gill batting but he also disappointed me by being out early at just 16 runs. However, India are at 145 for three wicket down. The innings is at a critical stage as the remaining batsmen's performance can make or break this game.

It's very strange that the volume on Binance is high.
who still buys a lot of FUN tokens?
I confess that I am very curious to know how it is possible that a token from a casino that has many problems, a casino that is very close to becoming a scam, its token can have a high volume. It seems that the site owners are behind all this volume on Binance. Now I wonder why they don't do the same thing on Poloniex? Could it be that they are not interested in Poloniex because they know they will not be operating the site for long, so focusing on selling on Binance, which has more volume, is the best strategy? I don't trust this site and I won't buy this token.

Well, the only thing that comes into my mind is that it is the traders who are bringing volume in this coin and it is not driven by the ones who invest in the project for the long term after studying the fundamentals of the project. Also when the volume comes into any coins that many traders jump into that coin for scalping and day trading too and also there are bots who get activated seeing the volume is coming in any coin. So a lot of factors are there due to which a lot of volume may be coming into this coin.
Bangladesh started well with the first wicket pair but lost 3 wickets by just a few runs. In the first 5 overs, Bangladesh probably scored 10 runs per over without losing any wickets, now the average has dropped below 8. The way Bangladesh is losing wickets in every over, Bangladesh may be all out very soon. This is the problem for Bangladesh, if Bangladesh loses wickets early, then no other batsman can keep their wickets and increase the score, be it in a T20 match, ODI match or a Test match. Since Bangladesh is batting first and they must set a slightly bigger target. If they cannot give a target of 160 plus runs against Sri Lanka, then they will not be able to win this match. Bangladesh has already lost three wickets, so now they have to keep their wickets and score runs as well, if they can do that, they can touch 160 runs but if Bangladesh loses two more wickets, they can be all out within 120 to 30 runs.
Sri Lanka won the first T20 game as before the match we were saying Bangladesh's last T20I records were so bad, so it is being continued, nothing improved. Once again they regretted this match. Another game for the Bangladesh team and they faced another loss.
I think at this stage the Bangladesh cricket requires an incredible finisher for the team, like Maxwell or Hardik Pandya or could also be mentioned a player like Asif Ali. By the way if you think in a different manner, then Bangladesh team is all good, here we have everyone what a T20 game requires but the problem is their own system is not good with a lot of internal problems.
Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
Wooooww!!! What a responsible batting! England lost their seventh wicket by 271 runs. I thought England would score a maximum of 320. But England did not lose any more wickets till lunch break and scored 353 runs. England scored 353 runs in 105 overs.
Jamie Smith scored 51 not out from 53 balls and Brydon Carse scored 33 not out from 62 balls. I am surprised to see Brydon Carse batting. Brydon Carse is playing well against experienced Indian bowlers.
The average score in the first innings on this Lord's pitch is probably 309 runs. If England can somehow score 400+, it will be a good score. Even though Indian batsmen are in good form, it is quite difficult to score 400+ on this pitch

Joe Root opened the game today and he was out right after completing his century. Right now, the main motive of the remaining batsmen is to make as many runs as possible.
Already, England have lost their seven main wickets in which Pope, Duckett, Harry Brook and Ben Stokes are included. But this time I think England could be more powerful as Jofra Archer is part of the playing 11 and he can take multiple wickets and also it would be new for the India batsmen as there are not many experienced players in the team like Kohli or Rohit Jaiswal. Most of the players did not face him ever in their career, while Shubman Gill would also be new for him.
Global tension has shown to have diminishing effect right now, people aren't too scared about the war anymore, stocks and btc aren't plummeting so hard anymore.
Whether there's global tension or not won't change the fact that i'm bullish with bitcoin though, since the fiat just keep printing money, i'm more afraid of holding fiat these days compared to BTC frankly speaking.
Just imagine holding something that multiplies with the passing days, value definitely gonna go down, we just don't really put attention to it. If only government can stop printing too much money

.Bitcoin is at 108k right now and soon it will be 150k followed by 200k and so on. We don't know the dates when Bitcoin will hit 150k and higher values but we are very much sure Bitcoin will eventually be there some day. If you have spare cash then it's of no use to keep them in banks because fiat value goes down with time. It will be good idea to put that spare cash into bitcoin because of it's price history and now we have no doubts that Bitcoin price will go up with time.
Correct, Bitcoin is over 113K, it's at all time high and in the price discovery mode. Seems like bitcoin doesn't care about the war, the ongoing economic conditions of many countries and this US trade war between the countries.
Also this is just the beginning, we shall be seeing bitcoin crossing 120K very soon. How it can go to 150K in the mid term but for sure there will be corrections along the way.
Re: Test Cricket Prediction and Discussion Thread [self - mod]
England and India will be playing the important third test match today at Lord's. With both teams winning a single test match each, this test is very crucial for both teams and the one winning this one will get an advantage and a lead in the series. I have a feeling that the team who win this test may go on to win the series too.
The way India played in the last game, I think they would be the favorite in this test. In the first test at Leeds, the Indian team lost despite having a good batting performance and in the 2nd test match at Birmingham they further strengthened their batting and won it. Interesting to see how the team bats in this test, it may end up in a thriller match

It is an important moment for the two massive bowlers to come to the Lord's. Bumrah was resting at Edgbaston but Bumrah is normal and the special thing is Jofra Archer is coming to play a test match after four years. Last time he played a test match in February of 2021 in the Ahmedabad stadium against India and now he is making his comeback at Lord's.
Let's see, I am so excited for him to see him in white again after 4 years. And in that match, he only bowled for single innings and claimed a single wicket. India won that match, but now we have to see what will happen today.
Well Jasprit Bumrah has been wickets in the morning session but Nitish Kumar Reddy got two England wickets.
Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett had some sort of the start but they both got out quickly. England would have wanted one of them to stay but now Ollie Pope and Joe Root are making a good partnership. England team need partnership, probably a one big partnership of 80 - 100 runs will help them regain their batting confidence. Losing wickets at regular intervals wouldn't help them and they will find themselves at a stage where they are short on runs. Probably they need one session without losing any wickets.

Sri Lanka A Tour of Australia: ODI Series
Sri Lanka A have lost the last ODI match and with that their dream of winning the series comes to an end. When they won the last match with 51 runs, I had a feeling that they may give an upset in the last match but that didn't happen. Sri Lanka A could only make 213 runs and that was below par score. In the previous game, we had seen Australia making 332 runs and even Sri Lanka making 294 runs, so this time they could not set up a challenging total, and Australia A had no difficulties chasing it. In fact they lost only three wickets and reached the target in only 33rd over, it was a one sided game.
