@Nathan-Bennett It was a small window of opportunity wasn't it, glad you managed to profit from it.
-
ENG WI
1.06 is low enough to lay however not to sure of the two at the crease at the moment
Weird but keener to lay when another wicket falls at shorter odds -
@Stephen-Hancox good call on the price WI to back .., i followed this got something out of it while was out cheers
Did make sense -
@Stephen-Hancox good start!
Correction - incredible start!!!
-
I've put small stakes backing WI at 5. Eng 3 down already, my thinking is a couple of wickets before lunch and Eng would still be well behind and 5 down, so 5 seems a good price, I'll be monitoring closely to remove liability, England batting last so every chance it's a close test unless Eng dominate today
-
I took a red on IRE vs ZIM, even at 5 down, expected IRE to push on. Took that last wicket stand to save quite a bit too. ZIM Price will only come in today unless IRE go through the top order fast.
Going to take a break for now, and be back for SRI series unless something clear pops up in ENG vs WI
-
Looking at graphs WOW ENG as low as 1.05 far out
-
ENG WI
Took green before bed on WI LAY @6.4 looks like good fight back with the ball by WI
Hopefully later days get some fast moving marketsIRE ZIM similar took some stakes back but didn't go to script well done ZIM fight back thought IRE bat would put on 325+
This test set up well forsure
-
@Nathan-Bennett you got 3 !
-
@Nathan-Bennett good shout. Should of followed as McKenzie is so fragile at 3 too.
Pity that WI are crumbling again, hopefully they fight back a little.
-
ENG WI
WI LAY @6.4
Feeling a wicket -
I tried a back to lay on ENG vs WI, felt the draw was way too high.
But it's hardly moved inside 6 overs so just taken a very small green and moved on.
Going to lay ZIM for now also.
-
IRE ZIM
think there's some value to lay ZIM @4.6
Taking stake back at 12's and monitor
…
Really suprised market didn’t move faster towards double figures during main partnership
Now two down IRE market suspect stale around the fives for a while -
@Fraser-cord i got in at 4.7 , out at 22.
-
IRE vs ZIM
Well none of today went to plan, hopefully someone got on a sub 3.0 draw lay. May lose a little play tomorrow afternoon and perhaps the same Sunday, probably not enough to bring a draw lay back in. But clearly it's an option if the price allows. Will need to see how IRE bat 1st.
Might try a draw back to lay to start tomorrow if the sun is out.
ENG vs WI
All prices currently way off, rain forecast on sat pm, might get a draw lay in later in the test. Probably only starting play would be an ENG lay if the price gets around 1.1 early on.
-
@Nathan-Bennett draw came in really fast didn't it. Expected a bit more from Irelands bowlers given they chose to bowl
I'm going to back the draw just before lunch (hopefully get a wicket by then). Rain forecast early afternoon, hopefully shorten the draw a bit.
Rain hasn't come, bailed from draw back for very small green. Can't see it coming in significantly for here
-
IRE ZIM
Draw steaming in hard
Only a small back on the SP after toss @4.9
Letting it ride till later INNSMonitoring for other angles
...
If ZIM got odds on that would be one and be laying -
@Stuart-Wallace I'm no professional however I'm planning on scalping at the top of the order (especially in the womans).
Il monitor the 1st couple of games to check markets respond the same as the mens.Got the world's best batters vs local bowlers in some match ups. Big disparity between the batters in womans, worked well in womans big bash. From last year, tends to be boundarys in powerplay, often overs 3-5. Avoid Kapp bowling (takes loads of early wickets).
Not as sure on the men's but probably scalp favourable match ups and lay chasing teams hunting large totals.
Always open to new ideas too.

100 Strategies !
Does anyone have any strategies for 100 ?
Must admit, i have tended to steer clear of these in the past, but now we have a wee bit of data i might have a look.
-
@Tony-Hastie I generally check as many different ones as I can.
Can often get weather reports for the ground. Then check local area too.
I know some folk have radar that are really accurate, not sure how you get that and at what cost.
It's suggesting most rain Friday but some Thurs and sat too.
