              Are you resolving? Or are you forwarding to some NS, if so what?

              This resolves just fine.. And here is the trace showing how it is resolved.

                      Again you for whatever reason can not talk to the NS for that domain.. Do a directed query to either of those cloudflare ns

                      example

                      $ dig @collins.ns.cloudflare.com worldometers.info
                      
                      ; <<>> DiG 9.16.1 <<>> @collins.ns.cloudflare.com worldometers.info

                          Those NS are the authoritative NSers for that domain - so no if you can not talk to them, then you wouldn't be able to resolve stuff they are authoritative for..

                              Well I would say something is blocking port 53 to them then, either on your end, or the ISP or cloudflare themselves - or something between.

                              But if you can not query them - then you can not resolve stuff they are authoritative for.

                              Are you forcing traffic out a vpn connection? What part of the world are you in - is it one where they dick with dns queries?

                              Can you query them for something else? Say for example.

                              $ dig @collins.ns.cloudflare.com cloudflare.com

                                  Well that would seem to be a problem then with them.

                                  You for whatever reason can not query them for dns - so no you wouldn't not be able to resolve anything that they are authoritative for..

                                  Can you get to https://www.cloudflare.com/

                                  even - maybe they don't like your ISP and are blocking them ;) Do you get a captcha when you try and access?

                                    i guess now the only way for me to able to query www.worldometers.info is to enable forwarding in my DNS resolver.

                                    i can access to https://www.cloudflare.com/ main page,

                                      Could the ISP be blocking DNS to any servers but their own?

                                        No since from his trace he talked to roots, and the affiliates.. He got told where to go for his domain in his trace.. He just can't seem to get there.

                                          I'm not sure but overall my DNS resolver was working, i just notice this www.worldometers.info not working for now, not sure of any other that is not working.
                                          But base on what u said, maybe all that register under @collins.ns.cloudflare.com, most likely i not able to query ...

                                            No you would not be able to resolve anything that you can not talk to the authoritative NS for.. When you resolve you directly talk to the authoritative NS for that domain.. If you can not get to any of them, then anything they are authoritative for would fail to resolve..

                                            That is how resolving works.. You get the info straight from the horses mouth - if you can not talk to the horse, then yeah you going to have a bad day.

                                            I would get with your ISP to be honest, and ask them why you can not query that NS.
