Had a lucky green (maybe my luck is turning) this morning on Laying AUS W at 1.11 to get a nice size profit.
3rd ODI is at North Sydney Oval on a day/night - and it showed today that it was tough batting under the lights, especially for first 10 overs. So, will be looking to lay team batting second.
Also, had a nice medium green on the NZ v SA test too.
Starting to recoup some of the red i encountered with the IND v ENG first Test . -
@Richard-Futter Im in South Africa at the moment for a couple of months, and the general dismay about the Test team here is obvious. Hardly any media coverage - most of cricket coverage is around the SA20 (i've got tickets for the final this Saturday) - however, attendances for SA20 games this year are supposedly down by 20 per cent as the novelty has worn off. I went to a game at Newlands last week where there were big swathes of empty seats.
The new SA skipper (who attempted to qualify for England in 2017) is sitting on an 8-fer currently!. -
NZ SA
In a good position personally after Nz runs line saluted for me flipped all that and lay draw 3.55
Greened that easily
Am eyeing a low lay Nz and exit double 1.05-1.10 styles to build some more green
Think Nz declare during first session tmr some point
….
AUS WI
ODI
WI bowled out for 80 odd
AUS always going to win
I always get annoyed with aus captains choose to bowl first . P**s weak so many ways IMO -
@Stuart-Wallace South Africa are basically fielding a third eleven, so the chances of them ever avoiding defeat look entirely dependent on the weather. Otherwise, if draws get anywhere in the vicinity of 4 to 5 a lay is definitely the order of the day.
Reasonable greens for me so far on all the Test cricket played so far this year, but with the Indian pitches and Bazball the draw has been much less easy to lay at low prices.
-
@Martin Yep, caused me a big red in 1st Test that i couldnt recover from, all because i went shopping for a couple of hours. A lot more wary of, should just stick to LTD, however, prices have become huge.
One opportunity i missed was with the NZ v SA Test, where pre toss Draw price was 15, but when NZ batted it dropped to 4s by EOP. So, with second Test, i am expecting the same (SA won the toss and inserted NZ ) , so will look to lump on a Back for the draw at 31 mins before game starts. -

Regardless result have to love the England attitude
Series going to be a ripperYeah in a way England are a bit of a problem, any other team and I probably don't even bother greening up but they do make me weary, just the speed of it means they can turn a game on it's head in one session.

Draw price came in nicely in NZ v SA from 15s to 4s !! SA 4 down and still 400 behind, so, lets say they are bowled out on day 3 with 200 deficit, then NZ will only have to bat til tea on day 4 to get lead approaching 450 - thats if they dont enforce follow on. Draw looks enticing at 6.
Stokes running was rubbish !

@Martin said in BTC Cricket Trading Thread:
Layed at 8.4 % play
Greened up at 26, not interested in miracles as @Nathan-Bennett once said!
-
Great shouts England lays
Was driving home from work no vision had 1.35 in mind to square up india lay
Timing !!!Back in laying 10% green 1.05 see if stokes can get it to 1.2’s for me
…
Well that wasn’t captain like running between the wickets -
Been out all day and just got home, so first look at England chase and I'll be laying at 5.9. Also just layed the draw in NZ game at 4.4.

So annoyed not switched on to this AFGHAN effort
Huge sub 1.1 lay missedYeh I saw SRI were trading 1.03 at one point. Any previous time I've tried it (especially with mismatched opponents) its not come in, so I stayed clear.
Would of been a very nice earner, oh well. -

NZ SA
NZ Runs backed 470+I'm a little wary as its effectively SA B team, but draw price looking ok. The question, do we back the Kiwi's to take 20 wickets? Have to feel their tactic must be huge 1st innings score and only bat once/follow on and maybe a small chase on final day.

@Richard-Futter said in BTC Cricket Trading Thread:
Have to say England's price of around 7 is crazy. Do people really think that is a fair reflection of their chances of doing something no touring team has ever come close to achieving in India?
I would say a 1 in 20 chance would be generous to England.
Will be very interesting if Crawley/Duckett can put on 50+, price could come crashing in too!
