@richard-futter generous this can be chased love it
-
Looks like a tea time declaration; definitely a good chance of a result now.
-
Lay Bang 1.22. Already in green from early India lay but absolute best result would be India to get to around 1.6 or so from here.
-
had a little lay the draw PAK ENG
-
Long way to go, so set and forget: Lay Bangladesh @ 1.84

I'm thinking England look to get a 400 lead and get Pakistan batting shortly before the close
I agree, declaration coming today. Or all out...

Can anyone see a scenario where ENG declare and set PAK a target of 7 runs per over whatever the lead is ?
-
@matt-ayles get involved if so huge start
-
Will be interesting to see how low England's odds get if they attack hard in 2nd innings.
I'm going for a little back to lay on England, starting at 5.0 -
gamble lay aus 1.03 here
only small like 5% of my green 1.09 be nice
could take 10-12 oversfinally into the second INNS PAK ENG
-
AUS WI
GAME over ha
5th day Lyon at it -
ENG PAK
eye on market as england take wickets lets say draw hits 1.6 ish
could be backable
ENG would still need to bat time for a safe lead and would need to roll PAK top order for the draw scenario to drift hard
Certainly be casting eye on thatAUS WI
Have a great green book with still some bigger potential on AUS LAY
anything around 1.5 i'll be starting to drip green up and pending on wickets down market could start to move fastand
WI
if happen to get into single figures be tempting to lay -
Switching focus briefly, there's a tasty looking ODI kicking off in 8.5 hours time.
India travel to Mirpur to face Bangladesh. Its an excellent venue that offers runs and turn, and although there is a slight edge to bowling first, its so marginal that toss bias won't be an issue. India open at 1.21 pre match so should offer some decent low lay opportunities.

@stuart-wallace Livingstone didnt even bowl dont see the point of picking him at 8 get a frontline bowler in there
-
One thing i notice is that Will Jacks, who , effectively, is Englands 4th choice spinner behind Leach,Livingstone,Root has taken 3 wickets - well done Will, both him and Brook will become ENG stalwarts for years to come.

Been looking forward to the start of the tests. I've traded the England one well enough, but this Aussie one has frustrated as I've missed all the good entry points due to being asleep lol. I've not lost anything, but one thing I've learnt this year is you have to actively follow if not watch cricket live in order to be a profitable trader. A few times I've queued up bets overnight thinking I'd wake up to green and found its gone totally the other way. Needless to say i don't do that any more!
yep, learnt my lesson the hard way in that respect, backed NZ V BAN for a tidy sum and fell asleep, only to find by morning that i had lost all my money, so therefore only trade when awake, or when i know it wont shift much (like today with AUS V WIN ).
Thats one of the reasons i am going to Spain today for next 20 days, in order i can trade through the night and sleep in late, then watch the Footy WC ! -

@matt-ayles yes
please dont be out here
-
I'm hoping the Windies hang in for a bit and make the draw lay attractive.
As for the England test, is this the worst pitch for bowling ever?
