Cinematic trailers are always a bit of red herring.

This is the fifth or sixth time Pakistan India are playing each other in their opening match of a tournament, totally fixed draws. ICC learned their lesson when both of them went out in the group stages of 2007 WC - huge lose of revenue.

What was the reaction back in Germany when German team played that draw against Austria to get Algeria out ? I've heard one German player said I'll score one goal for my girlfriend one for my dog before match against Algeria lol

85% of Greek mythology involves Zeus poking with a woman alone mind her own business.

The military industry complex needed new theatres after wars in the 'Muslamic' world were becoming too dodgy to sell to the public. So they've turned to this region which had fault lines to exploit and considering both parties have a war chest to spend on it will be very profitable for the contractors.

Emotional tears have more protein concentration than irritant tears which makes them run down on cheeks more slowly.

No official confirmation but the situation will become bleaker if true, attacking Russia back within its own territory - all out war.

Rahul Dravid a common shout. There are other claims about Tendulkar that he wasn't a match winning player, a lot of his tons weren't fruitful for the team similar claims about Pele's goal scoring records.

My analogies between cricketers and football players Chris Gayle = Ibrahimovic - journeyman, entertainer, extremely talented, attitude but with a sense of humor Tendulkar = Pele - greatest name in his country and for many in the sport but some think others in his team were better Warne = Maradona - GOAT, most inspiring, similar lifestyle, died young Lara = Iniesta - elegant, respected by all Inzamam = Peter Cech - overshadowed by giants who were better than him but doesn't negate how much great he was for his own team Kohli = C Ronaldo - superstar, arrogant, easy to hate but good guy in the heart, going through a rough patch Warner = Benzema - not a fan favorite and even looks like a snitch but a consistent performer Afridi = Ramos - huge personality no matter what you may think of him Kevin Peterson = Beckham - slightly overrated media darling

Arabian peninsula is rife with dormant and extinct volcanoes. The last major eruption was in 1256 which created a river of lava longer than 23km. How fascinating it was all once green and filled with rivers and then maybe volcanic eruptions turned it into a desert.

If they would invade Russia back then it would be a formal declaration of war.

Doing stand up comedy in front of a German audience. P.S Berlin Conference was the meeting where Africa was carved into mainly straight lines borders

Irish-English poet WB Yeats was so in love with an Irish woman he proposed him three times and was rejected every time. He even then proposed to marry her daughter in desperation. Simp

Russia is now striking Ukrainian energy grid in response to the counter offensive, entertaining into the next phase of the escalation.

Played Sri Lanka deserved winners

Great innings from Rajapaksa shifted the momentum away. Sexy bowling by us in power play though.

Pontius Pilate, the infamous Roman governor who decided to free one of Barabas or Jesus. In older Bible manuscripts Barabas's complete name also appears as Jesus Barabas. Bar is a patronymic meaning the son of and Abas is a noun not yet translated properly. Some proffer Jesus Barabas maybe the original Jesus who was set free by Pilate and why some Eastern Christian groups like Coptics and Ethiopians canonize Pilate as a saint.

Elite women keep their valuables in their cleavage.

Jordan Peterson's mantra is that you should first bring discipline in your own life like fixing your bed in the morning than going on tackling big things.

Fix your bed first Ronaldo than going into complex things like how to get into playing XI.

This bit is only true about ICC tournaments not in general and is exaggerated and I find in annoying. When we were really good we consistently rivaled the mighty West Indies, there is a reason why the 87-88 Windies Pak Test series is regarded as the greatest test series of all time by many and stats wise it shows we are next only to Aus Eng SA in win % and when we were really shit in mid 2010s we got consistently spanked with no intent to win.
