thing i've noticed about todays game, is that Holder is due in at 6. Now, Holder is not a bad batter, but not good enough for 6 imo, therefore the WI tail looks fairly long.
-
@tom-david-1 Nice one Tom.
-
@stuart-wallace One thing i've just realised, as mentioned on Cricinfo, is that, although the wicket appears tricky now, the likely later dew could lead to a more batter friendly wicket. So, possibly re-look at situation circa 20/25 overs and re-evaluate.

@matt-ayles Its a feel thing for me , state of pitch, batsmen in, bowlers bowling and likely about to bowl (for example, it might be obvious, but i will always lay the batting team when i know when Rashid is about to come on - usually between overs 10-15, and then just take the green at end of spell) , howvere, generally speaking i will always lay the batting side expecting an early wicket, especially if they are chasing a total in excess of 250. I wont normally look at batting side unless they have top 4 exceptional players.
For example, in the current game, i have layed WI at 1.8 thinking that the wicket is tricky , and therefore early wickets are likely (especially given the brittleness of WI batting). Will likely look to green up circa 3.5 or maybe let run should i think that a collapse is imminent (quite regular with WI !) -
Laid West Indies 1.69
-
as far as match odds
be keen to back IND when spin come on -
that's a good shout, West Indies lay is starting to look nice to me but will sit on my hands for now
-

Wouldn't think this was out of Indias reach yet, certainly seems tricky to bat on early doors though
i havnt been watching the game, but is the pitch tricky ?
Any score over 220 will be tough ?
Yes for sure, i'd like to see India with 230+
-
@matt-ayles easier way is to back a bowler you rate in my opinion in short format, I now tend to just sit and wait for that one big opportunity when you can see there is a mistake in the pricing and lump on that.

Lowest score defended in an ODI at this venue is 196 (by Windies v India in 1988)
dont forget though Matt that this is a new Ahmedabad stadium so pitch conditions yet to have any real data

Trying to learn more about how to trade the shorter formats and look for shorter exposure time in the market.
So i went in on India at 1.87 and exited at 1.7 for just 0.1 points. My thoughts were that you'd repeat the process a few times to build the green, although India built a good partnership and ended up around 1.4 so I've not reentered yet...
Is that the right kind of approach?
-
@matt-ayles i'd be surprised if India don't get close to 250 from here
