Pitch looks much more lively today, so having a lay of the draw at 4.4
-
@rob-arkell yeah mate it looks woeful. Only 4 tests ended in draws last year and 3 of them were ruined by rain. Could have our first of 2020 or an England win.
So much more test cricket to green up on. -

Thinking of laying the draw at 2.68. Any decent weather reports out there?
Screatch that, just googled it. looks awful

@richard-futter brilliant call. In and out before lunch on day 1. Don’t have to worry about timezones and still being in Oz just more green trading test cricket. Thanks for everything that you bring. Your experience and knowledge is helping no end

SA already out to 9...... nice lay there
After staying up all night to do some tennis, I missed my opportunity on the cricket. Managed to get a good trade on the big bash though, so all good

Toss about to take place - and in these conditions it could be a bowl first pitch. Bit of a lottery to be honest. Personally, I think they'll play safe and whoever wins the toss will bat first, but it's difficult to predict which way the market will go.If there's a lot of movement in the first couple of overs, it will definitely be worth a small lay of the side batting first.

surely raining in SA

@richard-futter was able to get on at 4.10 and couldn’t agree more also day 1 shaping up as a washout.

Laying South Africa at around 4.5 looks sure to pay dividends in the final Test starting in Jo'burg tomorrow.
England now look vastly superior in every department and in my opinion it would be a huge shock if they lost this one. On a fast wicket at the Wanderers they could have both Archer and Wood hurling it down at up to 95mph, while the world class Rabada will be missing for the Proteas.
Add to that, a forecast which includes plenty of rain, and the home side has a mountain to climb. I'd rate their chances at less than one in ten - and even then only if England take their eye off the ball. I really don't see that happening.

draw is now at 1.5. maybe worth a punt on the lay now. An early wicket for sri would make that bounce I think
Great call..... once again laying the draw pays dividends.

I'm thinking any sort of partnership SRI the market will quickly move closer to starting price , so could be a good quick little trade .. weight of most my money on lay draw
-
@james-woodroffe For me Sri lanka looks a good lay at 2.34
Already at the end of day 2 so they need to post a decent lead from Zims 326, and then skittle them out. all in 3 days
Anyone else thinking this sounds difficult? -
yep the addictive nature says to get involved ha .., be looking to back SRI as an impending change of innings looms , say 7 down Zim for a trade and have lay draw too
-
After some nice green in PE following SA being a bit stink is anybody interested in the Zim v SL test in Harare? Zim grinded out 2-189 by stumps and the draw is already 2.04 to lay. According to reports it’s flat as but cracks are expected to open up and surely SL would have to be a strong favourite against a team playing their first test in over a year.

Another wicket down for South Africa. LTD never in doubt!
