Hi everyone,

I'm building CricketClips, an open-source project that aims to make every cricket delivery searchable using AI, computer vision, OCR, and ball-by-ball indexing.

As the project grows, hosting is becoming the biggest challenge. Video storage, processing, and serving clips require significantly more resources than I can comfortably fund on my own.

I'm looking for advice or help with:

Cloud credits (AWS,Azure, GCP, Cloudflare or some Vps etc.)

Hosting sponsorship

Open-source infrastructure programs

Affordable ways to host large video datasets

If you've worked on similar projects or know of companies that support open-source infrastructure, I'd really appreciate your suggestions.

On paper this looks straightforward. South Africa beat Bangladesh, India lose to Australia, tournament over for India.

But the math is actually more interesting than that.

India have two things working in their favour that people are not talking about enough:

NRR advantage over South Africa. India sit at +2.511, South Africa at -0.546. That is a massive buffer. South Africa cannot just win against Bangladesh, they need to win big and fast.
Schedule advantage. India play the second match on Sunday. If South Africa go hard from ball one trying to chase NRR, they risk losing wickets early and potentially losing the game entirely. India will know exactly what number they need before they face a single delivery.

The real question is not whether India can beat Australia. It is whether South Africa can manufacture an NRR swing large enough to overtake India even if both teams win.

So what do you think:

Is India's NRR cushion enough protection even if Australia win comfortably?
Or does South Africa have a realistic path to overtake on NRR if Bangladesh collapse early?
