Galle a funny one over the years
Def worth paying attention
At times on tv you see clouds looming draw crash for it to only by pass the ground
Looks a unique spot on the map
I’d def love to go one day sit in the weather back to lay lay to back the draw haWoman’s test
Maybe when SA 2/30 styles draw maybe go into the black
Just a guess -

According to the BBC weather app the weather in Galle looks awful for the next week.
Amazing how all the different weather apps tell you different things. Cricbuzz also suggest that showers in the region are short and there shouldn't be too much disruption, plus the pitch should help the spinners very early on so wickets may fall quickly... Cricinfo share a similar opinion.
There's also only been 6 draws in 37 tests, the last one was in 2013, 15 tests ago (not including Englands in 2020 which was cancelled).
I think LTD (thats lay the draw @Kevin-Gedny) is still the play here.

@matt-ayles that makes sense, still trying to get used to the terminology. Thank you for such a comprehensive answer

In other news, cracking effort from Ireland there!

@kevin-gedny hi Kevin, no I mean I could create 1 points worth of profit (green) on all 3 outcomes allowing me to walk away from this trade knowing I've guaranteed profit.
However, my current position has 2 points of liability (red/loss) on the draw as I am hoping to be able to secure more than 1 point of profit. However, if I were to walk away now, worst case scenario the match ends as a draw and I will lose 2 points.
I will be following it tomorrow though, and if the market remains stagnant around the 1.5 - 1.7 area I may accept the smaller profit so as not to enter the final day with a potential loss.
-
@matt-ayles I’m still new to trading, when you say lock in a point, do you mean reduce your liability?
-
@stuart-wallace i don't necessarily need it to, but I'd be able to lock in a few points if it drifted beyond 2... can get a point or so locked in if it settled around 1.75 but I'm trying to be patient.

IRE v IND T20 - Incredible liquidity.

Looking on Met Office it seems that the rain will arrive around 5pm and continue all day. There doesn't seem to be too much rain for the rest of the week so hopefully won't lose much play

Can't believe the price is still so low on the draw... what will it take to shift this above 2?
Sounds like, like me, you need it to shift up to 2 !!?
Is it purely the weather forecast that is keeping it this low?Whats everyones thoughts re weather forecast for Taunton?

@richard-futter Interesting point about 100 overs a day - so, in essence they would bowl approx 4.5 days worth of mens overs in 4.

love all this chat .., ENG squad do bat deep
I agree about the chat being great, I had a terrible day yesterday, entirely self-inflicted trying to chase a losing position in the Ind/SL game. All of the positive posts on here today have really helped me reset my emotions. Thanks all.
