Lay of Pakistan didn’t really get anywhere yesterday even after Babar and Ali were dismissed. Draw laid at 3.75 yesterday and fell asleep not long after the gifted run out. Wake to WI 2-2 and draw out to 7.80.
Will see how today pans out WI need to show something. 217 isn’t daunting and two best batsman at the crease. Lay of Pak if WI settle morning session.
India v England test looks fascinating Pant and Jadeja could cause some damage but it’s a long tail after that so England need to strike early. -
@doug-sharp still 18 for PAK to get to win hoping to see PAK trade higher
think IND be 2's at some point
LAY 1.6
prob re lay if they went into total dominance around 1.3 -
@nathan-bennett WI 2/2 unbelievable! I laid Pakistan yesterday with there early wickets hopefully WI can get a grip of themselves today.
-
the first sign of any partnership by WI will enter a launch lay to back trade
eg
lay 1.5 back 1.9

Not too bad for two first days, just need the draw at Lord's to move as I think I laid a bit early @ 4.90, must improve my timing, happy to get in and out on India a couple of times and time the draw better in WI
-
Wow! The Hundred has it's first 200! Thats some batting!
India's day in the test that's for sure... need early wickets tomorrow, otherwise we should see a declaration from the tourists around tea time.
-
Pak price barely moved despite two wickets. Yet draw which hit 2.84 very early on is now out over 5
-
West Indies have won the toss and will bowl. No hesitation to lay Pakistan at 2.04 especially with the likelihood of showers thru out the day.
-
Draw down to 3... gotta have a lay there.
-
would be a 1.8-1.7 IND layer close to lunch / during
draw training in gees 3.0 too much to ask for
-
@richard-futter bowling first is not a concept that sits well with us Aussies. As you say and I agree you need the opposition 3 down by lunch otherwise it can backfire pretty quickly. Rohit for mine looks a lot more settled than Rahul. Interesting hour coming up.
-
@james-woodroffe India having luck on their side in the last couple of overs, but runs coming a little too quickly for comfort. If you put a side in in Test cricket you really need at least 3 wickets in the opening session.
-
@richard-futter yeah I think it was 2 balls after posting I saw enough to think “that post might not age well”.

Starting to think this was a good toss to lose.
Early doors yet, and the ball is definitely moving.

What information has Sibley got to enable him to still be picked.
I know what you mean but there isn't exactly a flood of English top order batsmen demanding to be promoted to Test level, and he does stick around for a good while. We don't really want Joe Root coming in in the first 20 minutes.

No Ashwin 4th INNs but still

Pitch roughing up in first over! Hard to see this finishing in a draw
-
Nice to see the 4.7 draw lay drift to 5.3 before play starts - gives a nice little cushion.
