NZ v NED would have been interesting to trade when NED were 83-0 off 11 chasing 330 overnight.!

@luke-weston Fantastic Luke, well done. So nice when you are staring at a red, but then recover to pull it round.
BAN collapsed before i could even get a Back on the Draw !
I was right in my observation of Sat night, in that how the hell was Draw still 2.3 when SA were approx 100 ahead and 2 full days to go ! it didnt make any sense to me ,so i piled in, and so it proved. I know weather was a factor, but the App i used (Accuweather) said there was only a small chance of rain during play hours ( makes me wonder if some of the market only look at the weather for the day instead of looking at the weather forecast between 10 - 18.00).
Anyway, bottom line for me was a 17 pt Green (tiny Bank), which was very nice . Once i get starting to play with a much bigger bank in May then i would expect those points figures to drastically reduce. -
I was massively overexposed in this match. Went into the red early, then everything I did went wrong.
Fortunately Bang have had a massive meltdown and I have come out with 6.5 points of green which nearly makes up for the red in the IPL on Friday. I had a fantastic March where pretty much everything went right and got carried away. Discipline!

BAN rolling over here - already 6 down, and LTD has gone out to 400.- to use Nathans word, looking now to cash out and maybe a peanut on a Back of draw, with maybe weather intervention ?

Not already testing for light are they SA BANG
LTD 2.3 overnight, now 7.5

What i love about cricket trading is the huge swings!
Pre match research was telling me that PKs had the stronger bowling lineup and although CSK bat deep, they're all allrounders which previous research suggested wasn't ideal.
After the powerplay I thought PK were good value at 2.02, so I backed them. I queued an exit at 1.51 hoping they'd bat well however wickets kept falling and they ended on 180 which is well short of the supposed par at this ground. Out to about 2.4, red screen.
However, I wanted to watch the CSK powerplay as, as previously mentioned, PK have a great bowling lineup.
Here we are, end of the powerplay, CSK 27-4 and a matched green screen.
Incredible.

Unfortunately England just can't keep their wickets intact to support Sciver... they'd need a Stokes/Leech style miracle now.
Not traded it as didn't wake up until about 10 overs into the chase and by then it appeared to be one way traffic. Plus i have 6 points on the outright either way!
Tbf though, you can't say Australia won't be worthy winners, they've been phenomenal!

@nathan-bennett got out at 1.05 for an imbalance. Just hoping 1.1 fora green up

Great innings from Healy
Only backed unders on run lines when they hit extremes
Looks a good wicket but a massive ask for England

WOMANS FINAL
Have LAY AUS 1.23
Like 1.6'sBACKED AUS u287.5
if poles i then may go overs if it were to get low as 260's and free roll both outcomesWhoops
Have to lay 1.06
Me anyway ha
Want 1.15 for 75% back -
@stuart-wallace and or SA get rolled . Great point you make
Draw market from here you’d think trims by obvious weather and light and a slow SA run rateBesides that could remain fairly stale ish market if SA truck along to a declaration
Might full flip trades on LTD start of play once get a better sense of weather
Could be opportunity to BTL BANG on impending declaration too
-
i dont understand why the LTD price has contracted. SA 70 rus ahead with 2 days to go, so should be looking to declare just before end of play day 4 - BAN will have all day 5 to bat to save game. Weather on my site not looking like its going to make much of an impact.
Am i missing something? -
RE LAYING SA
come on bangas 167 tick that off then keep going
1.8's for this trade to take back some -
I layed SA as well, fairly confident they will trade higher, you can't write off Bang boys, they have a habit of 1st game shocks and with bad light and rain due draw should trade odds on at some point
-
LAYED SA and could go again if wickets batters settled etc
-
got to factor in bad light as well, lost 15 overs yesterday i think, likely to lose some today as well
-
@andy cheers for that . Believe fast drying ground so could be some good market swings covers on and stuff tmr
