@richard-futter cheers for that info batting days .., barring stupid collapses either team if we’re looking at 280 a piece styles either team then yeah what price draw day 3
-
@nathan-bennett Only two draws here in the last 15 matches - and one of those against India was the result of the whole of the final day being washed out. That's not going to happen here. Might have to be patient, though, as Trent Bridge generally favours batting on days two and three.
-
@richard-futter 100% draw should steam in last 6 overs pre lunch my eyes brain thinking similar
Be hard to resistDo love a first INNS odds on lay
-
@nathan-bennett Yes, there were problems with it for a while there. Decided not to get into the market yet, as there was much less movement than expected in the early stages - even after the effects of the heavy roller had worn off.
The draw is becoming very layable as it tumbles in towards the 3 mark - which seems very attractive considering the good weather forecast. Could get even better though if England fail to take any wickets before lunch.

Just regained access to site
Crashed mine end or something
Anyway
PAK WI 5 tick scalp was goodWhat a flyer by NZ
I’m a NZ odds on layer if get there
Tempted now
Definitely after lunch if they stupid short go again -
Got the toss judgment wrong... will be interesting to see how the English bowlers do. Will be astonished if they don't take three wickets at least before lunch.
-
Toss imminent. Would expect the winner to bat and their price to shorten, but there will be early movement so worth looking to lay the batting side - just in case Broad does what he did against the Aussies here seven years ago.
-
@matt-ayles no scalp attempt me if WI bat .. just having a go at what witnessed lately short priced favs batting first

PAK v WI
If PAK bat first i'll have a crack at a LAY PAK for 5-8 ticks pre live playAgreed. Plan here is wait for the toss. Ideally like Windies to bat first.

Trent Bridge can be difficult to predict how the pitch will play, last 10 games have seen Australia bowled out for 60, India hit near 500 and various inbetween.
I'll let the game develop and take a stance later on, the draw price is probably about right today

williamson out with the flu

Do we foresee any kind of early partnerships that would lower the draw price? What's Trent Bridge like to bat on day 1?
The draw price is quite high. -
Missed a beauty lastnight IND SA
Need to not sleep ha -
@kaspars-eksteins Yes although very rare these days
-
Stupid question from a cricket newbie: can a test game end in a draw if the game is not interruped because of rain, but the innings are quite long so at the end of fifth Day all 4 innings are not completed?

@stuart-wallace also Leach is still out with concussion
Thought Leach was playing England named an unchanged team earlier today

@stuart-wallace also Leach is still out with concussion

@stuart-wallace New Zealand need to replace De Grandhome also been ruled out of the rest of the series - Santner would be my guess but no idea
-
ENG v NZ tomorrow in 2nd Test - they are going to come thick and fast this year!
Preview:
NO rain whatsoever forecast for Trent Bridge over the 5 days.
just 2 draws in last 14 games at this venue - both against India.
ENG will be unchanged from 1st Test, and NZ may make one change with Wagner replacing Patel.Looks like draw price is reflecting the above with a current price of 5.7 to LTD. My strat may be to Lay now and look to maybe scalp up to toss - and then re-evaluate based on that.
