Very intrigued to see what most thoughts are . initially weather I'm not local so will check in here for updates and do best to check info elsewhere . as far as long term trade very much like what @Luke-Ridger mentioned about loosing 120 overs draw becomes possible so an indicator of sorts there . have no doubt with what have noticed last tests the draw will be on the move at points throughout . day 1 i may even look to back the draw on wickets get in out and out say back 100@4 and lay 100@3 and so on just because of day 2 threat of rain build equity this way to start out . all about how i feel early think

With it drifting a little since this morning thinking maybe will it drift a bit more before the toss? Good be a little green to start the test with.

Draw has come down over last day. With only tomorrow not scheduled for rain at present. Could be an Interesting test to trade

Hey Simji, had a look on Cricinfo before and the preview was saying whilst rain is forecast they still think it won’t be enough to not get a result which is good. 2.54 now and saw it at 2.30 this morning I think it was so already a good price. Will be interesting to see what the guys think in the morning. Loving a test match each week tho.

@jpm Sat doesn't look great right now . I think every chance we lose 100 + overs so draw looks about right imo

@luke-ridger really don’t understand why the Draw is trading that low at the moment, when the forecast isn’t looking that bad. Seems like the market thinks it’s a Thursday start. I see no opportunities missed and plenty to come along. No need to enter the market for a few days, unless the forecast drastically changes.

Luke Ridger

Bit of weather around in the next test, unsure how much we lose yet but Sat is looking pretty poor, draw will very likely trade odds on at some point, although we may have missed a B2L ( Back to lay) opportunity there. Now dependant on how bad Sun/Mon/Tues is weather wise, if good then draw is a lay opportunity .

laid draw at 3.75.
ball is already moving & new ball is due

greening up now at 7.00,patience provided profit once again.used 4% of my bank roll in drip laying,didn't expected draw to get that short,anyways money management is the key I think.

Simji

I've got my liability exit lined up just awaiting for it to match it's a few ticks lower than its currently at.

James Woodroffe

Happy days and out now for this test match.
A few things to work on and fine tune for my trading going forward but loving the return of test match cricket and getting back into it.

Just remember my favourite saying: In Test cricket, you'll never be poor laying the draw

Nathan Bennett
