I'm liking the lay of the draw around 3.4 in the Bangla-Afghan Test at Mirpur. The Afghans play very little Test cricket, so their ability to hold out for a draw must be very limited, and the last 11 Test matches at Mirpur have all finished in positive results.
There is the threat of thunderstorms throughout the five days, so - as there are no live pictures that I can see - it makes sense to keep stakes sensible. But ground staff are brilliant at covering grounds in this part of the world and things dry out very quickly. I'll be very surprised if the draw does not trade considerably higher at various times during this match.

@Matt-Ayles
you can lay them now for 1,5 ish
is this some thing that is interesting? and why would that be
the starting price of them was 2
and the last 5 matches H2H they lostalso the draw is now around 3,3 is that a good lay opportunity ?

Hi folks, going to start to dabble in the Cricket markets ahead of a good summer of test cricket!
I take it with the weather looking mixed for Eng - Aus this weekend we expect Draw price to shorten? I'm going to try a LTD if I can get matched at 5/5.1, does this seem reasonable or better to wait a while?
Welcome David,
To Me, 5 is a good price - especially with Bazball - but obviously keep an eye on the weather. Generally, ENG matches have been taking less than 5 days since Ben and Baz, so i personally think a 1 day loss due to weather is acceptable - especially as they will catch up the equiv of 1 session, so total loss may only be 2 sessions.- plenty of time to get a result with the new ENG outlook on how to play. -

It must be weather related... accu-weather has minimum 60% chance of rain on all 5 days (suggests thunderstorms).
What's the drainage like at Mirpur? Is a thunderstorm going to flood the ground?
Ah yes, doh, it does help if i look at the weather forecast for Mirpur Bangladesh and not Mirpur Pakistan !!

@Matt-Ayles Cheers Matt, strange how different weather apps get it so variable.
I found this article, however it was from 2008 !....
'The Shere Bangla Mirpur Stadium became Bangladesh's sixth, and the world's 95th, Test venue in May 2007. It is fondly known as the "The New Home of Bangladesh Cricket" and is shaped like a rectangle as it was originally meant to serve as a football and athletics ground. The stadium also sports the biggest furniture market in Dhaka.The ground boasts the best drainage system in the sub-continent with some claiming that "15 - 20 minutes" are all you need to drain the field after some of the heaviest rainfall in Bangladesh.'

What’s happening in MIRPUR
Draw 2.3’s before day 1Strange. Checked weather and it says rain on Thursday, but clear for the other days.
Checked recent results, and there have been zero draws in last 11 games there.ENG v AUS - rain now predicted for all day Sunday, and a bit of rain for Monday too.

@stuart-wallace-0 did you manage a small lay at 3.5? Hope so, as I see it's now 6! If this match ends in a draw then I'm a Dutchman's Uncle (I'm not, by the way).

I found this video from Peter Webb interesting re crossmatching (Virtual bets) on Betfair - shows that liquidity is maybe not as we know it , Jim.
