Sadly I was @2.4

Don't worry. Things are moving very fast now. Personally, I'm giving it the rest of the day at least, and probably a good amount of tomorrow. Could see some massive swings. Don't forget there's a full 98 overs tomorrow on a wicket that's really up and down now.

Can't see the follow on but still could be a chance for the draw to rise. What would peoples exits be at this stage.

Depends what price you layed at. If I'd layed at 1.12 (if only!) I'd be trading out a fair lump of it now.

Evening session of the 4th day tends to be a good one for wickets, especially with a new ball coming. Lumping a little on WI under 375 runs which looks good value.

@jpm @Simji Thanks for your help

Got one more after today. But if indies put a good total today would need to bowl England out by the end of tomorrow

If that happened would that be a win for them? Also if indies get a good total today can england win it tomorrow?

If WI bowl out Eng tomorrow they would have to bat again and chase down their total to win the Test Match. Eng can win if they bat, and then bowl out WI.

Forgive my ignorance, Im trying to learn.
Is today the last day of play?
Also what would happen if Windies got to the end of play today with say around 420 runs all out?

Tomorrow is the final day of play. In that scenario Eng would bat again tomorrow.

This feels like a draw written all over it

Nathan Bennett

Dunno if pulled trigger too soon but gone 0-0-RED on trades 1.3 was my number . 17 wickets seem hard to come by ... hopefully poles to come

Simji

The move from lay of England to the lay of the draw maybe not the best move yet. It's early days a lot more cricket to have. A couple of wickets would get it back to green.

This is the second test I have traded. I laid the draw for a profit fin the first one. With this one, the England starting price around 1.4 was way out of kilter with their ability (to my mind). Throw in some bad Northern weather and it was a low risk lay. from a liability of £20 I have just traded out for a £30 profit. 150% roi. luvly jubbly.

gees sick . lads tho starting to pitch it up finally

Nathan Bennett

@james-woodroffe just not used ! perhaps change ups coming . big hour coming up may end up going 0-0-red on trades and pray

James Woodroffe

Hey guys, slightly busy start to the day so I haven’t seen much play. Is there anything behind Stokes not having a bowl yet or has Root just not used him?

Nathan Bennett

certainly req a pole for some market nervousness . looking ok at the crease these lads
