Works well any decent T20 league
Back opening team first exit 20% profit or 50% loss

been doing this for a while

Don't know how many are trading the IPL. I've not been using max stakes as 20/20 can be so unpredictable. However 2 strategies that have been great so far as these pitches are being made for big scores.

Back to lay of the team batting 1st (depending on teams openers and opening bowlers). Generally can get a 20 tick offset within the 1st few overs. Very few early wickets
Lay the chasing side if target close/over 200. I get in around 5 so happy to wait for that price, only takes a couple of early boundaries usually. I tend to trade out for half stake as teams have come back and got close. Like to be out before the final few overs as anything can happen then.

Making some decent green so far

Greened up BAN v SL, took a tidy green .
Thanks to Nathan with the 1.21 to 1.42 trade , which provided almost half my profit.

Nathan Bennett

I had another draw lay at 4, then the wickets started falling , going well this test. Last test had no opportunities so making up for that.

Nathan Bennett

SRI BANG
Well the free roll trade worked 1.21-1.42 except no kicking on from there
I was gardening of all things haha bloody ball and chain wife
Took a lot of the 1.17 after 1.42 matched and since have greened all up
See if any 4th INNS angles suspect hard to trust this team the longer this test goes on
Today was the day i feel for proper fill up
Just didn't eventuate
Laying draw low 3's high 2's would of been next big play
Oh well

SRI BANG
SRI Massive lay 1.21
Stake back double 1.42 if happens

thanks Nathan, perfect trade.

Stuart Wallace

IF SL dont win, then i am in for my biggest green ever.

Stuart Wallace

@Nathan-Bennett Good point Nathan , i think sometimes we are so blinkered with LTD that other possibilities are missed.
My BTD (back the draw) has only just gone into green - if BAN are still batting by EOD Day 3 then it should be a goer.
Just placed a large Lay SL at 1.21.

Nathan Bennett

SRI BANG
SRI Massive lay 1.21
Stake back double 1.42 if happens

Stephen Hancox

I queued a small lay at 6 and it just about managed to match. Hoping scoreboard pressure comes into it in the next few days.

Stuart Wallace

@Fraser-cord put in small lay at beginning to see what happens , to scratch out and flip at 7.2 - here we are at tea and SL 215-2 and the price hasnt moved !

Nathan Bennett

NZ ENG W
ENG LAY 1.05
Will take stake out 1.10 and green toward end of INNS if goes well
...
Nice little easter fill up
Letting some ride incase ENG balls it up
It is something to chase to be fair

Fraser cord

@Stuart-Wallace Il not be touching this one. Loads of draws at this venue. I have little confidence in each teams batting, but there is enough doubt in my head. If SRI bat 1st and score big, could be worth a shot in the hope of early BAN wickets though.

Stuart Wallace

BAN V SL.
LTD price is massive, yet last 3 games here between these two teams have all resulted in draws with some huge scores.

Nathan Bennett

AUS W chose to bowl
I actually have massive hate for this in many ways
Useless

Nathan Bennett

IPL too late for me too leave big money in play unless its the weekend games
Might set a small bot up
The ol 1.10 ish lays for a swing

Next trade
Tmr hoping AUS W bat first against BANG and fire a huge lay in
