Greetings to you all.I cannot help but notice the low odds for laying the draw on Pakistan vs England ? Is this a smart play or not?

nice quick WIN wickets, just dripped a bit more LTD - figured that windies will likely be 300 behind and put back into bat around or before tea tomorrow , no way will they survive.
letting my ENG lay run at moment with small green, will look to take out liability should PAK reach EOD with 2 wickets downEven better, EOD with 0 wickets down and their best batter still to come - its clearly a batting paradise, and both sides will struglle to take 10 wickets , let alone 20.
Plus my guess of 300 behnd was close. AUS at EOD are 344 ahead with 2 full days left - so, declaration between lunch and tea some 525 ahead, and WINDIES have to bat for 4.5 sessions - just not in their make-up or skill level.

@kevin-ray Kev, its a good thread this one, full of like minded people who generally get it right (although there are the occassional blip!).

I have never traded cricket.
As someone who has just joined BTC I have been reading through the forums and everything on here.
I read the cricket thread at just the right time as people were discussing the opportunity to lay England and the pitch looked favourable for a long innings from Pakistan also.I entered a small trade at just above evens and took my risk away at 3.1 and have fully greened up for a small profit at 5.
Just wanted to tip my hat as a thanks to the chaps on here that enlightened me to an advantageous trade that I would have otherwise not have got involved in. Thanks

@richard-futter a bit of low bounce though. What price for a chop on for the next wicket?
-
PAK ENG drip greening up
this about donecould back to lay draw on wickets if obliged
-
Must be soul destroying for seamers bowling on a surface like this. It's possible the sun will cause the pitch to break up on days 4 and 5, but I'm not convinced either side has a world class spinner capable of making serious inroads into the opposition batting.

England out to 3. Lovely jubbly
Almost through 4 now.

as soon as pak avoid follow on draw 1.01 ???????????? ha
-
Exit Eng lay at 3.65, although a very low draw lay is on the cards here.
I'll be very tempted to use some green if it gets down towards 1.1 or something as you never know with England... only thing is, Pakistan bat second and could bat for the next 3 days the way this pitch is playing. -

England lay is on.
Still no entry in Aus game as think I've missed the opportunity there.
-
I'm liking the lay of England at anything around evens. Gotta figure the Pakistan batsmen, in home conditions, will make it a long, hard slog for England's rather thin looking bowling attack.

I’m always critical of Nathan Lyon no idea how he’s so good maybe 99% of his wickets come on day 5
Just never flights the ball it’s amazing
Protecting his stats
Go the West IndiesTook some 1.42 aus
Books looking real good -
At the ground today AUS WI
these are batting conditions
Hopefully WI can apply themselves take game deepTrades
Greened up start of day and since LAY AUS with half green
1.6 be amazingUnbelievable took 1.6 and wicket boom
-
also undecided on my AUS WI book
semi thinking could be swings on wickets / mini partnerships
considering greening up and doing this for the top 5 batters if evidence
