currently 3.5 for LTD interests me - a couple of early wickets should see that rise sharply , could be overcompensation for first 2 matches.
-
@stuart-wallace cheers for the update
-
@andy Early indications are that its a green deckwith a lot more bounce and carry than A and B, therefore i would be tempted on Lay the batting side early doors and reassess after 12 overs
-
@nathan-bennett Aus should be able to get Pak in for 3.5/3.75 sessions at least
-
Balls on the line
LAYING DRAW LAHORE (I would take 6-7’s)
Wickets great
Surely market won’t go miles away from me if bat all day
Declaration depends on how big balls Cummins has so far seen two tests two passive on declarations
If aus big lead and when looks likely declare I’ll BACK TO LAY PAK for a swing -
Keen to hear people's read on ENG v WI. 1st thoughts are B2L the draw hoping to flip big on it and laying the fielding side 1st dig.

@andrew-macdonald thanks mate. Nice when it works out as you hope.
It's a little insight into my thought processes. I need to plan as it stops emotional betting which i have fallen prey to far too many times and it never goes well for me. I need to know my entry and exit points clearly.
Key wicket Miller has gone now and Bangladesh into 1.2 or so. This is nowhere near par from SA.
When you consider the performances of SA v IND a month or so back, and now this v BAN - a real shocking display and performance in this series - very un-SA like and maybe symptomatic of the change in SA psyche since the days of Smith,Kallis,Amal,ABDV,Steyn,Pollock et al.

@matt-ayles my god you pretty much wrote that ball for ball, outstanding
as you say unfortunate you didn't get any money but perfect reading -

Further point: Bangladesh are now over 2.0 after 23 overs... however timing is crucial here. Miller is the key wicket. Pretorius only averages 17 in ODIs which he has already exceeded so he's probably on borrowed time... as i write he edges one but its short of the keeper.
Going to stick with the plan. See out this over and the next, i expect with no wickets Bangladesh will be around 2.4 and I'll enter
One over too many!! Pretorius goes and the price crashes to 1.6! Missed that one unfortunately but pleasing to know i was on the right track

Was just thinking that SA have gone to pot too. Wickets everywhere this last hour.
I had greened a SA back early for just a few ticks, however am now sat with profit on them and scratch on Bangladesh.
As it stands it feels to me like the markets are about right, so I'm just watching and waiting... not much batting to come for SA so these 2 need a partnership. I'll wait until over 25 or so, and reassess. You need a minimum 200 to have any chance of defending on this pitch (according to history) which I can't see SA getting...
If Bangladesh get to 2.0 again I'll be entering a back to lay there.
-
2 days left, feel like Aus will have to bat until after tea tomorrow before a declaration. I will wait - looking for a lay of Aus/the draw when I get up in the morning.
The timings for this test are good for me. I think I tend to lose green in the morning session.
-
SA collapsing in the same way as PAK
Surely 2.24 LTD for PAK game is great value ?

Did a hit and run on the draw. When they went 5 down and the draw lay price stuck at 1.5 I had to get on that. Levelled up and waiting until the next spot.
well done mate. Was looking at that too when 5 down, but didnt have any in my tiny bank to put on. Once my Bank is replenished next week (been battered by stupid decisions in both cricket and footy recently) then i will be able to get going again.
Another emotional bet on SA v BAN means i am being battered there too ! - BAN have caused me nothing but red in past couple of months - from now they are on my s**t list.
-
actually draw lay till stumps safe
so knowing aus and the rate they tend to score
is the draw lay just a no brainer
and or if wickets of courseonly a stubborn 4th INNS PAK BAT will the draw go back down ?
-
stumps soon
hard to see markets moving a lot
safe play lay aus till stumps if ya feel the needhoping cracking days 4&5 for launch angles

@andy personally can't do that just yet
PAK opening duo new ball could be just as sharp as AUS closing that INNS -
Back to lay this draw now? What we think
