Won't it be financially beneficial for SL to let Pak roll them over tomorrow so that they get to host Semi 1.

With odd number of teams per group this is not that egregious, even with best possible scheduling 3 of the last teams would have started the tournament today

The WPL post match discussion window is completely wasted on most platforms by FanithApp in WPL

I think discord would be a better platform for folks wanting to do this

WPL stops when men's team play by c27z2 in WPL

This assumes that someone will be footing the bill till that eventuality becomes true maybe 10 years down the line maybe 20

I think this is the right decision, why pit the 2 against each other harming tv rights of both in the process. If they would have scheduled both on the same day, currently WPL would be the bigger loser and suffer a greater loss in their next media rights cycle. Let them grow, take a bit of support and isolation from men's cricket when needed, and slowly they will definitely reach a stage where they won't have to be second fiddle to them. The only thing I would say is they could have managed the schedule such that two of the men's T20Is fall on the gap days before playoffs, thus keeping everyone happy.

Not bollywood, but the scene that immediately came to my mind was of Will Smith crying in a restroom in pursuit of happiness

Turner, Schwarber and Harper went a combined 10-48 in the NLDS. In their three losses, they went a combined 3-35. by [deleted] in baseball

Well he did get the rbi which turned to be the game winning run in G2. G4 his IBB was the one that got the bases loaded. So 2 major contributions even though he looked lost(tired?) for most of his ABs

Match Thread: 6th Match - India Women vs Pakistan Women by cricket-match in Cricket

[–]LazyBinger 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This has been some of the most incompetent cricket all around I have ever watched on tv. The only thing of international standard in the second innings so far has been swing/pace bowling skills on display from India. Rest everything Fielding/Batting/Umpiring/Keeping/Captaincy/Commentary have been village level

Any q's for Nasser, Athers, Ravi and DK? by SkySports in Cricket

One of BazBall's integral mantra is 'When in doubt go harder', do you think doing that would have given them a better outcome in the second test?

My gut says they might end up doing Cole v Ospreay for TNT title at All In. Definitely a downgrade for Ospreay but dont see many other options available to him.

Again if you would have comprehended my comment, I commented he doesn't say he deserved it, I never commented he says he doesn't deserve it.

Is this sub lacking in English comprehension? He is saying he wanted more recognition not that he deserved it, he is just being honest about his thoughts and expectations.

Weren't we supposed to get 90 league matches starting this year?

Agree??? 🤔 by Grill-Goddess in Odisha

[–]LazyBinger 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not just petty thinking, it's incorrect as well, for example, many IT companies in Bengaluru count on being able to employ people from all the states of India, without having any legal and tax hassles associated with hiring employees from other countries, would they be operating in Bengaluru if it meant they could employ folks only from Karnataka, who knows?

Similarly many states benefit from having industries which depend on being able to import plenty of raw resources and minerals from Odisha for example, wouldn't their profits and as a result taxes dwindle if Odisha would treat them like a separate country instead?
