Re: Indian Premier League (IPL)


I must admit I haven't watched a single IPL match on TV from start to finish this year. Only occasionally watched even replays. But noticeably, the bowlers have done a lot better after the first week or so, in which the batsmen were totally dominant. KKR has been complaining about pitches at the ...

Re: Your opinion on dedollarisation

I am the old dude who does not leave. :-)

The dollar will only crash because of Trump's crazy actions. Not because of whatever BRICS is machinating. if BRICS was so powerful, then why did they not bring down the dollar before? They must be utterly stupid to wait so long and even then machinate to ...

But, the rest of the world will have three years to catch up. Maybe three years is not enough to overcome our advantages ... we will see. Typically, it takes a couple or sometimes more Olympic cycles for others' programs to yield results.

Expected reply when you have no evidence whatsoever and want to make random claims when called out about the illogical and wild claims.

Re: Indian Economy


All of these things apply to drinking carbonated drinks, eating chocolate, not exercizing, etc. Losing productive time applies to people who watch movies, cricket matches etc (probably 2 or 3 years of productive time in their lives?)... Why aren't you asking these questions on all those activities ...

Unfortunately. But, this is also only a few games. Among the ones who have got games, how have they done?

Re: Los Angeles Olympics 2028


One thing is clear. India has no chance in badminton. Lakshya and Sindhu are fading away and SatChi plagued with injuries. A medal in women's cricket will also be tough with Australia, New Zealand and England having better chances. For 12-15 shooting needs to step up. With the mess our wrestling ...

Re: Your opinion on dedollarisation

What is the evidence that BRICS is the architect of the dollar collapse and not Trump's stupid tariffs? The dollar decreased the most against the Yen and the Swiss-Franc because people want to stabilize their bets and not rely on the dollar because the U.S. has shown volatility in its policies ...

Re: Indian Economy

It is at least 30 feet without wind for about five hours (closed settings). With wind it goes further but stays perhaps a shorter time. Also, taxes and tariffs are a payment option.
