    Morning all.

    Been reading through this thread as trading cricket might be something I look into. I know nothing about the rules of cricket, will need to read a bit first, but I understand most of what is being suggested here.

    Am I correct in thinking that the draw odds should increase slowly over time if England do well today, but they will increase quickly if there is a batting collapse?

    Catch that Green!

    @james-woodroffe thanks james. Glad there is consistency with others the way I’m trading this. Guess I just wanted some reinforcement that the draw isn’t Linley to actually happen!

    @andrew-wooding hi mate. I’ve laid the draw already and expect it to shorten more so pretty happy in the knowledge that it will be red screen so I can lay again as it shortens but no rush. Obviously if England collapse we will be able to green up and look to enter the market again later as the test evolves.

    @nathan-bennett glad my thoughts on this are validated by yours. As an inexperienced trader you get twitchy as I already have a sizeable liability on the draw from yesterday. Just looking for some reassurance from more experienced members I guess that whilst it might go red before green, that sticking it out is the right thing to do?

    yep with ya there if no early wickets then time and runs just put WI right out of it .., with that draw overall could shorten some till eng say 7-8 down and impending change of innings .., i am thinking of holding just a little longer before laying draw. nothing wrong with a lay now as some of lads have started too ... scalping wickets could prove dividends with solid runs on board already

    Morning everyone.. big day and first session me thinks. Draw is priced at 5. Are we still confident laying is the value here?
    England get a big total, windies are obstinate in response.. bit of rain tommorow.. those odds tumble as only 2 outcomes to this test match become viable.

    @luke-ridger well it's looking unlikely now, so most likely a loss here. England have got well on top here.

    The thing about WI is they are very used to slow spinning wickets back home, and they just have this idea stuck in their heads that England is all for fast bowling without realizing some of the pitches there are flatter nowadays. As a result they go all in with pacers and a part time spinner just like what they did last year in the world cup , not a single specialist spinner which was foolish. Instead of using guys like Chase and Nurse, I would much prefer to see Devendra Bishoo back, or above all Sunil Narine.

    Draw into 4.9.... drip laying it downwards.

    How you divide your stake when you drip lay & what percentage of your bank roll you use in laying the draw?

    @ricky-hounsome hey mate, looking back over the posts. Please accept my apologies if it was me and my comment re cricket betters. If it was it most certainly wasn’t my intention to appear to slate your decision to lay England or looking at the draw market. My comment was aimed at general punters and not traders mate and how we can take advantage. (Why indeed would England be so short) If it wasn’t me I’ll feel better if it was sorry again wasn’t my intent. 🍻

    any weather around gents day3 seems possible stoppages . just thinking ahead to how low the draw may go

    According to the radio, might be a delayed start on Saturday - and you can always rely on a bit of rain in Manchester - but nothing that's likely to have a major impact.

    England worth a lay at 1.4? Value?

    West Indies bowlers already look very tired, so I wouldn't be laying England personally, but there's not a huge amount to lose at current prices so I certainly wouldn't discourage anyone who really fancied it.
