BTC Cricket Trading Thread
-
Something that has interested me and I thought I might share it re the Women’s T20 WC. Whilst I’m new to cricket trading I have worked a bit on associate cricket over the years and have been pleasantly surprised by the improvement and rise in countries obviously like Afghanistan but also Oman and Nepal to name two. Women’s cricket has yet to see that really but there’s a school of thought that that might be changing with the Thailand women’s team. The Thai girls are also getting good support from India as far as tours and helping with the evolution of the game. There has been a huge amount of money (compared to other matches) on their opening game against the WI women. In fact the Windies are 1.03 to lay for this match. Two things strike me about this the first one being is that the WI women are not very good at all and along with Pakistan would be the two weaker of the full member nations. It means possibly that mug punters are loading up on the WI or maybe traders know that it’s not a foregone conclusion. Thailand have won 17 matches in a row at associate T20I level 17! The women’s World Cup will have it’s stories and obviously Thailand will be one of them. Oz has a big Thai community so they’ll have support. Maybe they don’t win a game but will they think they can roll the WI girls? Why not. Surely that 1.03 has to be worth loading up on. I can see the headlines now.

Been watching and learning over the past few days and realising why I couldn’t get my head around T20 trading. Was trading way to much and as a result was unable to get a grasp. Have learnt so much watching these past two matches and now can’t wait to get my teeth into T20 trading. Things are always clearer when the penny drops and you can go “well no wonder you were making a dogs dinner of this before.” Did someone say PSL? The Aussies arrive in SA now also.
It's been a lot easier for me in this series 'cos I know more about the players of England and SA.
I'm gonna have to do a lot of research on PSL. I might just watch the first coupla games to get a feel for it before trading -

@rob-arkell Pakistan Super League starts on Thursday - that can be very lucrative too
Sweet! Enough time to research some of the players. I'm guessin a lot of internationals from the Eastern countries such as India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka?

This is deffo my game to trade. Can't wait for IPL -
Greening up at 2.3.

Out to 1.7..... looking good

England just about keeping pace with the run rate. I'm more nervous with dot balls than wickets at the mo as the batting order is strong throughout for England

@simon-miller I got done the other week in India v NZ. I had a nice juicy green on the match. When it went to super over they just returned my stakes and was left with 0 profit. If I'd laid the tie at 1.03 I would have been in massive profit and the stake should be well less than the green you have if one team wins
