Switched all liability to a lay of AUS at 4.9, can't resist at that price with 370+ to chase and bad weather around

@Martin 4.2 odds is a lay on Aus out of principle here statistically, could lose of course but not as often as market is suggesting! Hope it gets odds on at somepoint

@Martin I've layed again at 4.7

If Aus start well maybe it goes towards evens. Which would be phenomenal.

Looks to have started turning a bit. And variable bounce for Murphy. Root has far more exp bowling at this level too.

Never a certainty but this will need to be a huge effort from Aus. At the end of a tour too. If a few go down they might fold.

@Gavin-Rumsey just dripping in small lays here as price shortens! how low can it go?

@Martin I reckon it could drop a decent amount with a declaration or a 20/30 start to the aus innings.

Martin

@Gavin-Rumsey put half stake it then rest when it goes lower

@Martin and aus under 10!

Edit. And keep dropping slowly. Couple of wickets more..

Will YJB take it away from them??

Martin

@Gavin-Rumsey can't see draw unless loads of rain

@Martin I'm in the red on a draw lay. Laying Aus probably an ok hedge!

Martin

@Gavin-Rumsey kind of want to lay now but I know what Stokes is like and it would be sods law for him to declare and it dip well below 10

@Martin Big time

Yesterday the Aussies looked vulnerable when they started looking for runs

I think... We have batted very very well.

Martin

@Gavin-Rumsey just hoping we get aus below 10 if we declare 263 highest chase here! Only two fourth inning totals over 369 too.

@Martin The chat on TMS is suggesting the weather looks better next 2 days. They might bat on on a bit. But stokes might fancy 30mins at them tonight. Who knows!

I'm slowly recovering from my day there yesterday. The slow first session just meant more beers were needed!

Martin

Expecting a declaration this session? Maybe go for it for an hour then declare

@Fraser-cord Hope you ignored me... lol.

I wish i had. Currently in a red draw lay but holding fire for now.

Hopefully England get swinging in the next 10-15 overs then declare

Nathan Bennett

well
appears from these conditions is how many will ENG/Stokes want
…
Hmmm the ball moving a bit and off pitch that hazelwood over intrigue

Richard Futter

@Fraser-cord Hope you ignored me... lol.

Nathan Bennett

yes pending england INNS score draw could be backable when aus bat if the price is right for a swing
also
if england get stupid low eyeing a lay

ENG 1.75 LAY see how it goes assess when they two down
market stale for the moment seeems good time for eng lays

laying any green on the draw side aswell for now 5.2

Richard Futter

@Fraser-cord I wouldn't be laying Aus just now. Duckett and Crawley could easily go cheaply and heaven knows who'll be batting at number three!
