How's everyone seeing the Ashes match? England are favourites in the absence of Smith, but their batting still looks suspect. If they bat first I shall certainly be laying them at around 1.7. Far too short IMO.
-
@richard-futter markets are so volatile
-
Looks very dark there. Can't see anything like 60 overs being bowled.
-
@richard-futter yeah 365 had the first test and Betfair dint. Hopefully can get some good trades over the coming days.
-
@josh-shaw Nice one, thanks. The coverage seems to be very hit and miss. Had some days of the first Test but not others.
-
im using betfair feed, it seems a few seconds faster than the one on unibet
-
@richard-futter yes Betfair exchange have it...
-
if it reaches 2.0 ill be ok...just need it to get 1.94 to get back in the green and avoid a big loss.
-
@josh-shaw Have you got pix? Are you in the UK?
-
Draw price back to 1.58... rain around?
-
NZ bowling has been awful, wish I had a nibble on SL...
-
It's amazing how quickly they get up and playing after a deluge in SL. English grounds could learn something from them. Makes backing the draw there a very risky pastime.
-
Bet 365 should be streaming pix, so that should give us a better idea of what's happening. Always difficult when relying solely on cricinfo and cricbuzz.
-
Price coming in again, which I guess means it might be raining again.
-
They're hoping to get in 60 overs - which makes the draw price look very low to me. I managed to get a small lay in at 1.52 but still looks value at around 1.7. Will be surprised if it doesn't reach 2.0.
-
yes just seen Sri Lanka won the toss.
just hoping for early wickets now to push the price out. -
@liam-fox starting in 20min

Well, looks like there's unlikely to be any play today in SL - the forecast was indeed wrong... it's much worse than they said! Holding fire on that one at the moment.
I got in yesterday at 3.0
now just put a load more in at 1.72
so i really hope the play wont be cancelled
-
Just read that the sun is out about an hour away from the ground and that there could be play after lunch. pitch is also reported to be very green
I am going to let the draw continue to firm until play starts lay it then trade out after a couple of early wickets hopefully. -
