  1. in relation to Julian Assange getting released lately, reminder this was one of the key videos he helped leaked that caused an uproar and subsequent actions leading to his arrest

    Went to sleep halfway between South Africa chase but I was pretty sure India would win. Nice to see Kohli Sharma finishing their T20 career on a high.
  3. From 2026 onwards all alcoholic beverages in Ireland must have cancer warning labels on them like the warning labels on cigarettes.

    Batsmen with 10,000 Test runs and their achilles heel in terms of lowest average by countries 1. Sachin Tendulkar in Pakistan, avg 40.25 of 13 inngs in 10 matches (not bad by any means but still low compared to other Indian players in Pak) 2. Ricky Ponting in India, avg 26.48 of 25 inngs in 14 matches (woefully bad considering how much he has played there) 3. Jacques Kallis in England, avg 35.33 of 25 inngs in 15 matches (respectable but poor compared to his own teamates) 4. Rahul Dravid in South Africa, avg 29.71 of 22 inngs in 11 matches (poor but not surprising since prime South Africa at home was bane for nearly all subcon batsmen) 5. Alastair Cook in New Zealand, avg 27.13 of 15 inngs in 8 matches 6. Kumar Sangakara in West Indies, avg 34.00 of 7 inngs in 4 matches (not enough sample size really) 7. Brain Lara in India, avg 33.00 of 6 inngs in 3 matches (again low sample and surprised to see how he barely played in India) 8. Shivnarine Chanderpaul in Australia, avg 30.20 of 21 inngs in 11 matches (not a single century there despite playing enough) 9. Mahela Jawardene in South Africa, avg 27.88 of 16 inngs in 8 matches (same as Dravid) 10. Joe Root in Bangladesh, avg 24.50 of 4 inngs in 2 matches (low sample but bad considering other players also don't play much there but still have higher stats) 11. Allan Border in South Africa, avg 38.00 of 5 inngs in 3 matches 12. Steve Waugh in Sri Lanka, avg 16.60 of 5 inngs in 4 matches 13. Sunil Gavaskar in Sri Lanka, avg 37.30 of 6 inngs in 3 matches (same as Root, Sri Lanka were new in his time and others also barely played there but still have better stats) 14. Younis Khan in West Indies, avg 22.20 of 15 inngs in 8 matches (shockingly poor since Windies weren't all that great in his time, Inzimam faced a much stronger WI with Walsh Ambrose but avgs 50s in WI for reference)
  5. This game is more likely to go into extra time than England Slovakia
  6. Reportedly the worst presidential debate. One was constantly telling lies and the other couldn't make up a coherent sentence.

    Kohli out on single digits again. He should just play one down.
  8. There is also a desi cuisine war about biryani with potato or without. I personally like it without https://www.indiatoday.in/amp/lifestyle/what-s-hot/story/biryani-potato-india-pakistan-karachi-kolkata-lucknow-hyderabad-lahore-food-debate-1163867-2018-02-08
  9. attempted coup in Bolivia failed which reminds me of the coup counter I was doing since Biden took office. It was around 16 since I lost count, there has been the Wagner coup in Russia, this one in Bolivia and a few others I think so total is around 19-21
  10. https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/c511yz5ze18o.amp Dutch men's volleyball player who raped a 12 year-old girl in UK after meeting her on Facebook and served one year sentence for it and is on sex offender registry for life will be playing in the coming Olympics despite protest.
  11. This is just my style like the hunter who lets the pray get a head start before he finishes the job
  12. Saturday 29th June, 2024 Switzerland 1-1 Italy, 17.00 Germany 1-0 Denmark, 20.00 Sunday 30th June, 2024 England 1-0 Slovakia, 17.00 Spain 3-0 Georgia, 20.00 Monday 1st July, 2024 France 2-1 Belgium, 17.00 Portugal 1-1 Slovenia, 20.00 Tuesday 2nd July, 2024 Romania 2-3 Netherlands, 17.00 Austria 2-0 Turkey, 20.00
  13. The idea of Greater Israel is only supported by the religious hardcore zionist factions in Israel, as indicated in this video, the secular elements oppose it as see it as a pipedream. The whole idea stems from the interpretations of the 'Holy Land' which is based on Abraham's journey in the scriptures. Abraham was from Ur, Babylon but he was exiled from there for disobedience and told to dwell in this promised land. But neither the land is defined clearly nor journeys of Abraham and you have all these different interpretations of them.
  14. That is natural, like parents get frustrated at their kids all the time but can't stand if someone else does it
  15. I make better predictions in matchday threads than in the prediction league

    Cricket

    South Africa vs Afghanistan in the semifinal. First time both of these teams will play a final if they win.
  17. Portugal already qualified and playing a weak opponent ? Ronaldo hatrick coming
  18. It rewards mediocre performance by the team in question in the group stages by giving them an easier bracket. Like the original post said how four group topers will end up on the same side of the bracket
  19. One of the reasons why Portugal had it relatively easy in 2016, no disrespect to Croatia Wales etc This 24 team format awards mediocrity in the KO bracket.
  20. 1980s some Palestinians in West Bank started a dairy farm of their own for self-sufficiency but Israel declared them 18 cows as a national security threat for harming Israeli business interests launching a military operation to find and confiscate the cows. https://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/mar/22/the-wanted-18-a-tale-of-talking-cows-and-palestinian-rebellion
