wow wtf but take the trade position

Draw laid now at 4.0
-
Layed the draw at 4.2. With only seven overs to the second new ball, could be a key moment.

India fighting hard here after winning the toss and batting first. In the past, final sessions of pink ball matches have usually produced a host of wickets, although the ball will be fairly old by then. Still, a lay of India just after the second break at around 9 am could be productive.
But I wouldn't write India off here. If they could bat through until midway tomorrow, they'd be in a very strong position, with a new ball in their hands as the dark descends. And they did beat Australia here two years ago in a cracking, low scoring encounter dominated by Pujara - surely the most obstinate batsman in world cricket.
PS. The draw price is dropping quite nicely. If it gets close to 4 I shall certainly be laying.

Many thoughts out there for aus india test tmr .. hope aus win toss bat well draw shorten then bang lay . no draws in 14 pink ball tests . also from memory last couple there final session ea day is seems to be horrendous to bat in , convinced its hard to see
I've taken a small position on the series taking the Aussies at 4-0, 3-0 and 3-1 which I'll look to trade out of as it progresses. If they get off to a decent start with Kohli returning home after this test the Aussies could be much shorter.

@nathan-bennett yeah mate, I’m going to have a look later at the actual numbers but it’s that time where the lights take over and perhaps coincides with the taking of the 2nd new ball? Again I’m going to have a proper look this afternoon in preparation. Good news seems that Smith will be fine and yesterday was just a precaution. Top order issues for us with the openers but not to much to worry about and if he passes his test excited to see Green debut. Not as excited as Pukovski but I’ll wait till Boxing Day for that.

I dunno who I love more. Daniel Sams or Ben Laughlin. Lovely start to the new week.

Just a heads up for those who might not be aware. NZ Cricket are streaming live and in HD all the NZ matches on YouTube. The feed is really quick also and is good to know with the Pakistan tour starting on Friday morning with the T20’s as it’s not on the TV.
Just type in New Zealand Cricket and boom there it is. -
Well the rain didn’t come but what a strange weird match in Hambantota today. Also who wants to pencil Holder and De Silva to bat all day in Wellington for one of those Basin run feasts?..........
-
At 2.0 it could be worth a small sprinkle before the broadcast starts. For what it’s worth I’ve had heaps of days off in Hambantota over the years so hopefully will keep all posted over next hour.
Now at 3.0.

For anyone interested in the LPL semi finals we have rain in Hambantota. Not sure to what extent yet and if it makes NO completed match a option to consider today.

@james-woodroffe laying winning team with a massively stale market think only pain . easy post match to say of course . back to basics
-
@nathan-bennett I hold Darren Bravo personally responsible but having said that if the WI bowled NZ out for 180 the Kiwis would have still enforced the follow on. Total lack of heart from their batsman.
