Anyone able to find the record 4th innings chase stats? Can't seem to locate them...
i saw caption earlier which showed abut 200 as highest run chase at this ground, but dont forget this ground has only had circa 10 tests ever. It also showed that all the run chases were achieved with very few wickets down
Yep its 201 highest run chase

For the specific ground or highest 4th innings chases in general?

Thinking takes SA 50-60 overs today if things go well to declare at current run rates aswell so yes draw could come in to play hard
-
watched the first 20 mins and clearly no demons in pitch.
i am wondering if there might be a case for backing the draw should there be no wickets taken in first session. SA will only declare with a 400+ lead after tea should they get to it.
Interesting situation.edit...clearly others thinking the same as draw has come in to 12 from 20 at start of play
-
Definitely laying SA start today
Would like mid 3’s before assessing
And a re lay 1.5’s
Nz series lead what ever they’re chasing like to think apply themselves better
Surely some fast moving markets and swings coming up -
Neither of these SA batsmen fill me with huge confidence... 2 full days to go. Think if SA can get near to a 300 lead they'll be happy.
I'll then have to crack out the record books to see what kind of 4th innings target is getable.
-
Only just got back into some small green last night after a good batting from NZ. Sadly that ruined the SA trade for the first 12 over in 1st inngs.
I have no idea how this will play out. And not sure I'll get to watch any coverage tonight so might just see of anything comes to play.

Whats everyones view on NZ v SA game?
Draw now sitting at 20, so thats out of the question, unless you want to have a large liability.
Think NZ are a bit skinny at 2.4.
One word of warning though is that the Christchurch pitch tends to not deteriorate as Test goes on - so, hanging on for a draw might be a possibility should SA score enough to put NZ in to bat after tea today. However, historically, this venue produces a result 90% of time. -
Flip soon
Drip lay SA 1.8 ish -
Same as you Nathan, small drip lays on NZ and a big draw lay, maybe starting at 3, got real feel we could see super low draw odds in this one at some stage
-
Draw potential low again for a round two hit
Nz also odds on could drip lay for a target swing -
@stuart-wallace that's what i thought. Got my wwc antepost trades matched so will wait for the main event.

Do cricket traders ever touch "warm up" matches?

@tom-david-1 well done Tom.
I saw the score when IND were 5 overs in, and also saw the opening partnership of SL and thought you would have mullered the market.
