Editor’s Pick(Test): Bangladesh - Australia

By
Haha. What do you know? Bangladesh managed to defeat Australia after all. It was a shocking defeat. Bangladesh beats Australia. That right there. Shocking. And true.

Quick outline. Bangladesh scored 260 and 221 in their innings. The Aussies managed to respond with 217 and 244, falling short of the target by 20 runs. I am sure they were hurt real bad by this display. People back home have not taken it well either.

The consequences of this loss are very serious to Australia. They are down 0-1. If they lose the second test match, not only do they lose the series, they lose their current spot in the table and drop few positions. Apparently, heavy rain is predicted. If it does rain, Australia cannot even the two-test series. This puts them in a very bad position.
The second test match is very crucial to both teams. Bangladesh, in fantastic form and spirits, will want to form a winning streak. Australia, on the other hand, want to win the test match and get back some of the lost pride.

The team that the Aussies will go with tomorrow is still unclear. The players’ form is of concern. Wade needs to prove that he belongs in the team. Peter Handscomb might be trusted with his hands behind the wicket. ( love that pun). Usman Khawaja too needs to pull up his socks. Hilton Cartwright might be on the team. Keefe becomes the third spinner. Spinners is a way to go at the subcontinent

Let’s take a look at the winning lineup of the first test match.
Shakib Al Hasan
Nathan Lyon
Pat Cumins
Ashton Agar
Tamim Iqbal
David Warner
Taijul Islam
M Rahim
Steve Smith
Shafiul Islam

Blog Time: I won in Fantain 2.0. And I didn’t shell out a penny.

By
I won. This is a big deal for me. I have never won any money on any online competition or game ever. Until now. When I heard Fantain Fantasy Sports was coming up with a new version of the game - the paid version, I thought, “I have only managed to win a few coupons here and there. Wonder how much money will I have to pay?”

And I saw that they were issuing FanCash. Does that mean no money to be deposited at my end? That’s right. I applied the code that I saw on their FaceBook page and used it in my updated app. And voila. My credit went up by 25. I went through all the games that were showing up on my page. I did my research on the players and created various lineups. The process was just as simple as it was before. I submitted my lineup in various matches, playing both free and the paid pools.

I was eagerly waiting for my results. And I tell you, the wait is just as exciting. I had won every paid match that I played in. The beautiful words “Congratulations, you have won” in a nice gr…
