@richard-futter
Yep just put in a lay at 3.45! Nice price if you can get it. Hopefully a few early wickets go before the rain comes -
Am loving the lay of the draw at around 3.5 in the second Test between India and South Africa, starting early tomorrow morning.
No doubt the price is influenced by the possibility of thunderstorms, but the forecast was much worse for the first Test and in the end only one session was lost.
And while Pune can be a good batting wicket, the only Test at this ground was a very low-scoring affair. Also, the groundsman has been ducking questions about the state of the pitch, which could also tell its own story.
Once again, it's difficult to see anything other than an Indian win, although if they bat first and can post a decent total South Africa might just have a sniff.
-
what price India when declare , surely 1.20 chance win maybe shorter
-
Laid the draw again just before Elgar fell and greened up for another nice little profit at stumps. I’ll probably leave this test alone now as I dare say work will get in the way. If I hear of anything worthy I’ll post on the tennis thread as I’m here working on the Shanghai Masters. Keep greening up lads.

Wow!, the VPN is working nicely but I’ve slept thru a lovely fight back by SA. Gotta give Elgar credit the bloke has ticker. Certainly didn’t see this coming.
-
if this partnership gets to stumps overnight india could really ease
-
@sameer Nice!
-
1.24 to 1.48 nice little green here
-
Having a little lay of india at 1.24,,both elger & faf playing positively.
-
Nice green to finish day 2 and not have to worry if I can’t get on in the land of the long white VPN. In a perfect world I arrive in Shanghai my VPN works, it’s been raining the draw price comes back in and Ashwin just runs thru SA again.
-
ended up only needing initial lay @3.35 … if market dove real short would look at re lay 2.5 ish and likely lesser stake and look to get that second lay traded out around my initial 3.35 entry . sadly missed the opening day 1 action this is my first entry
-
@nathan-bennett yep India have just declared so 22 overs at SA today enough time to have them in trouble by stumps.
-
drip lay draw time SA INDIA me thinks
-
Cheers @Richard-Futter I thought that was the case but hadn't really seen that much of a jump before. India are doing well so trade still in. More hoping that it'll go back to 1.5 before closing out I reckon.
-
@simon-miller It was down to the weather forecast. No one was expecting the rain which stopped play for the day, so the draw price was bound to come in and hence India's drift. With the sun shining again this morning, the batting side's price has come back down.
