    Is it worth laying the draw in the India vs Eng test? It's quite high right now, but the last one was wrapped up in 2 days. The difference this time is that it won't be day/night and would probably expect both teams to be more cautious. A draw would also suit India.

    Apologises for the newbie questions but I've never LTD with cricket and it seems quite a high liability right now to be wrapped up for potentially 5 days. Looking under the "strategies" section of BTC it said odds would usually be around 3.0-4.0

    There is something cathartic, about sticking to your strategies and not panicking and
    watching a big Red, turn into just a small green by sticking to what you know works for you.
    Just experienced that in the Karachi match.

    @babar-malik there is no rush mate. You do not have to lay it at the start of the test.
    Pitches in the UAE tend to be pretty flat from the outset and do not offer much for the bowling side before they start to turn.
    With no Rashid Khan, and free to air TV in Zimbabwe for the first time in a decade Zim will want to put up a good show. If whoever bats first bats well that draw price will come into something very layable.

    I welcome the rest day after a really busy Monday for me 😄 Don’t know if I should lay the draw in Afghanistan v Zimbabwe. The price is pretty high @James-Woodroffe

    @babar-malik it was Fawad Alam and he played in their match on Saturday and nobody else has tested positive. The cynic in me says another false positive from the much maligned PCR testing system but yeah he will be fine.

    @babar-malik yeah mate always best to give it a couple of overs to just let things settle. Crazy league that T20 in SA I’ve found it super hard to gauge but loving the PSL at the moment.

    What a game between Lions and Dolphins today. I learned a valuable lesson. Never start a trade in the first over. I am still in the testing phase, so I don't mind losing a few at the moment. Overall, the strategy of laying low and backing high has been working well for me. Looking to see regular green moments in the future.

    I think and it’s just a hunch Guyana might struggle to get close to 363 but who knows.

    Mixed day on the PSL. Cut my profit short on the first match cause I forgot breakfast so locked in some green cause I was getting Hangry and vagueing out then United crashed and burned posting only 117 in the 2nd match. Every time I reentered thinking they’d get something going they’d lose a wicket. Ended 3 points Red for the day.
    Had a kick of the Sherrin with junior (he’s so English) and will monitor the Super 50 final tonight. Hoping for a good match.

    Surely this will be one of the shortest Test matches ever.

    Having spent a lot of time in Ahmedabad I can see the appeal of getting out of there, but they're stuck there for another test match.

    Couldn't they just start the next one tomorrow? 😄
