Ive got a biiiig red on AUS v WI - totally learnt some lessons here...
- Get up early and watch the game !
- Close out losing positions early!! - dont let them run - there will be plenty of opportunities at further stages of game.
- Dont get early positions before knowing close weather report. Schoolboy error, but i should and do know this already - just didnt action it ....doh.
Hoping to recoup some of my losses from my ENG lay in other game, and the other 15 or so Test matches to be played in the next couple of months.

@Richard-Futter just read this and bango wicket
more required aswell

LFG WI

@Stuart-Wallace Yes, the England spin attack has been very disappointing. Things can still change very quickly in Test cricket though - usually when you least expect it.
-
@Nathan-Bennett Going well for you Nathan. I could do with a burst of wickets at Hyderabad!
-
@Stuart-Wallace im on the AUS LAY at mo WI have done a great rescue job . Hoping they bowl well like they did in Adelaide especially night session
Would love 1.4’s for some stake out and eye towards lay the draw 6’s be greatgot some 1.4 handy trade so far

India look very short to me at 1.2..... Stokes could yet push this a good way above 200 and with the wicket turning who's to say the massed ranks of England spinners couldn't make hay too? Having a little lay at 1.2.
OOps, i got in at 1.23, out at 1.12.
Not a good trade. Almost wiped out all the green i had accumulated so far. -
@Stuart-Wallace There do seem to be a few predicted interruptions based on BBC weather, but play for most of the time. This is quite a turnaround as a few days ago it was a predicted wash out with perhaps 2 days play max. In general terms I would be looking at Aus beating WI within 4 days, weather in this test might make that within 5 days at most. Draw lay at 10.5 just a bit high for me at the mo, especially with some WI fight today. Maybe monitor early doors day 2 and if down towards 7 then I'll get involved.

Interesting situation AUS v WI - currently sitting on big red - havnt traded this at all well. However, LTD looks a good trade for me - weather wise its unlikely to interrupt Test much if at all. plus dont see Windies batting like this again twice in a game. AUS to get parity by end of day 2, and then WI would need to bat for 1.5 days at least to get to any point of security - cant see it meself.

If AUS are close to batting could be big lay at short odds for a swing -
Dont blink
All happening at mo
IND ENGThere an angle to back the draw in india
say if eng rolled 200
Back when india batMonitoring

Only one wicket down and the draw price hits 48; never seen that before in all my many many years!
-
Good start from the England batters and their price heading in towards 3 already. but think i'll hold fire until we've seen a few overs from the spinners. The ball seems to be coming on quite nicely for strokeplay at the moment which will certainly be welcome for Stokes & co.
-
I'll be setting my alarm nice and early for England's eagerly awaited return to the Test arena tomorrow, with possibly their biggest test of all in India.
Chances of a draw look remote, to say the least, but at around 13 the stalemate is no value at all as far as laying is concerned. But it is possible that if India bat first and don't lose early wickets, it could shorten quite a bit. If it gets to 5 I will definitely be laying.
It will be interesting to see if England's Bazball style can work in India. But again, if they bat first I can see their price of around 4 shortening too and I do feel India are tad short at around 1.5 before a single ball is bowled.
It is possible to score big runs at Hyderabad as New Zealand showed in the first Test there when Baz himself was in his pomp. But in the hot, dry weather the pitch is bound to turn from about day three onwards (if no earlier) and Ashwin and Jadeja will have a major part to play.
But with Kohli and Pujara out of the early matches, I'm quite hopeful of a decent showing from Stokes's lads!

@andrew-page great read !! love it

Simple strategy i use given to me by a good friend
T20
BACK whoever batting first exit for 20% profit or 50% loss
my knowledge of cricket is very limited so i dont push boundaries stick to it rather than risk for extra percentagesGood leagues only ie BB or indian T20 whats coming up
not messing about with lesser leagues got enough on with racing and footballIts served me very well only had 4 losing matches on BB this year with just one to go
i must admit i lay 50% of profit looking for perfect game had a few low odds turned over where traded out for decent profit on games
