@matt-ayles I dunno who England can even bring in to strengthen their side as I’m pretty sure the Lions have left Oz? It will be a wait and see for me as to how the weather unfolds but if England do bat first it will be almost impossible to ignore if it hangs around that price even 4’s. As for taking the foot off the pedal I don’t see that being an issue. Australia are still smarting from losing to India and as a result missing the WTC final last season so they will definitely be motivated. It just seems like it’s a strange market given what’s already transpired. I’d have to look at past results but I can’t remember the last time we had a draw in Sydney but I can remember rain days with little or no play but then again even that could have been a fair while back.

The draw lay for the 4th Ashes test is at 3.60 despite weather looking suss. I reckon that’s great value given we probably only need 200 overs for a result over 5 days…………………….sorry couldn’t help myself.
I've just been looking at this. They've set the market exactly the same as the previous test with Aus at 1.67 and the draw at 3.5
Unless the Aussies are going to stop trying now the Urn is theirs, surely thats a crazy price on them and as you say, the draw? England haven't looked like getting remotely close!

@stuart-wallace it’s an interesting one cause the weather still looks a little suspect despite the commentators talking it up earlier. If you’re happy with your profit maybe just take the green and move on. A lot of test cricket coming up.

@Stuart-Wallace glad you waited mate. I have been loving test cricket trading the last few months. Seems that there are always swings and you can always find green if you plan/research etc. As @James-Woodroffe mentioned, patience is key!

SA IND trying to tempt me back into the draw market 3.5 at the moment
Cant see anything other than a result .
SA need 211 - easy if they bat at 2.4 an over and can keep their wickets intact.
India need 6 wickets in 90? overs .Can only be a result in my eyes - weather permitting of course- and thats the big question.
What does everyone else think?

Once again the draw lay patience game pays off. As for the weather tomorrow they were saying earlier it probably won’t arrive till late evening if at all.
A couple of quick wickets for India would be lovely but over 300 51 overs today and improved weather outlook for tomorrow.Brilliant, thanks James. Yep, at one point i was tempted by taking my loss, but thanks to you guys for advising otherwise.
Great news re the weather too. -

-
Still 51 overs left in day - this could be all over by tonight !
My sizeable red is now showing a healthy green !
-
IND LAY @1.42 change of INNS close and how i like it reached 80% of my maximum green from draw laying
Would drip out this trade at 1.6 1.8 styles then straight to the bankget that heavy roller out and 20/0 start
don't ask for much
-
@matt-ayles anything can happen in the bay of plenty weather wise , asked the question and seems to be good outlook
Reckon hold for the toss

@richard-futter said in BTC Cricket Trading Thread:
Doesn't look as though the declaration will come into it now. The draw looks a distant possibility.
distant or distinct ?
-
I'll be tempted as per ha..,to lay IND very low stakes if early poles when bowl
but want draw green book first

@matt-ayles said in BTC Cricket Trading Thread:
Changing the test match, granted a touch early, but New Zealand are 1.21 to beat Bangladesh, and the long range forecast is dodgy for days 4 and 5... surely that's low......?
Ive learnt my lesson...not doing anything til morning of game!
