@JamesnRs8 Win is a win, ur just upset ur shitty team South Africa lost 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Either ur a nobody who made an account 1 month ago or ur just an alt, keep coping
@JamesnRs8 you targetted India for no reason
"undeserved or "lucky"
"Still not India, South Africa is miles better"
"Damn India only won by 7 runs... That's not that good"
@musuko384 I have a right to speak my opinion, you can either agree with it or not. You don't need to be a social justice warrior and be like "ooga booga I must defend India"
@musuko384 I honestly would rather be James Charles than an Indian to be completely honest.
Anyways I'll relax when you stop messaging me.
@musuko384 this is my main account but you probably aren't capable of understanding that with all the sewage and pollution everywhere outside, so I understand mate.
@JamesnRs8 i refuse to believe that ur on a main having not made a single bet in a week and all you do every day is sit in this market and hate on indians
also who said i live in india
@musuko384 I bet all my budget on this market, what am I supposed to do. Also I don't only hate on Indians... 'It's hard to see India not making it to the final from here' I said that after the first innings. I just comment on reality. Also, how much you're fighting for India and the fact that mostly every bet you've ever made is for the India cricket team, I do strongly believe you're Indian, either that or mentally ill.
@JamesnRs8 are you slow lol, just cuz im indian doesnt mean i live in india
you've been hating on indians this whole time - tech support, "go scam somebody", "sewage and pollution"
@musuko384 "are you slow" hypocrisy at it finest LMAO 🤣 😂
You do know Indians don't have to live in India, right? And you further prove that by saying yourself that you're Indian.
So your statement about "hating on Indians" not being correct is technically wrong.
Also I don't really hate Indians like you're assuming... I just hate the Indian government, and I'm mostly saying these things so you can leave me the fuck alone.
