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
-
@Nathan-Bennett got 20% backing Heat at beginning done that lay as freeroll with 50% of profits although not decided when planning to exit
-
BIG BASH
HEAT LAY 1.08
WANT 1.24 for 75% back -

Brook has pulled out of India tour. Have placed large Lay on ENG to see what effect it has on price.
Answer: 1 tick !

@Nathan-Bennett looks like days 1 and 2 are clear - if WI bat first then the game could be virtually over by then.

Maybe weather around Brisbane draw coming in

im going to SA20 game tomorrow - Cape Town v Paarl at Newlands, Paarl have Buttler and Roy to open their innings. this is list of prohibited items into ground..
ok, that was a bit scary- however, luckily lucrative.!
Looking to courtside the game, got to ground half hour before game, and took my trade position based on toss (lay Paarl)- being able to connect via my phone.
So, Paarl bat and tear into the bowling and going at some 13 an over after 5 - including Jason Roy taking 26 off 1 Rabada over). Looked to maybe reduce my liability, only to not be able to connect via wi-fi nor phone - once crowd came in all bandwidth was sucked.
So, i basically had an open position i could do nothing with, except let run.
Ended up leaving the game after 5 overs of second innings to take refuge in local Bar (thanks, Tigers Milk) where game was on tv to find Cape Town so far ahead of run rate by that time with only 1 wicket down that i had a big green showing and CT at 1.03
Lucky .

2nd Test AUS v WI - prices already on BetFair. LTD is 28 !
However, this is a day/night Test, so there hopefully will be some play in prices especially in last session when ball should dominate.
My thoughts are to lay the batting team an over before Tea. Hopefully we can see AUS bat first this time. -

West Indies 120 haha get out of here

Nothing about laptops then

@Stuart-Wallace yeah being on that test series !!!
Have had a peanut on WI to score 121
-
@Nathan-Bennett managed to get in at 1.03 , and out at 1.06. Recouped a bit of my red from previous lay at 1.1. Not a great game for trading.
One incredible thing about the 3 AUS quicks is that they always seem to stay fit despite playing a lot of Tests, whereas fast bowlers from other countries always seem to have injuries. (Bumrah,Jimmy,Ferguson as examples)
Looking forward to IND V ENG next week. Should ENG bat first then can see price dropping quickly. Have got my LTD position in already - expecting it to fly out quickly.
