@stuart-wallace I don't trade cricket but do watch it as a fan. From a statistical perspective, if the draw odds are 4 the implied probability is 25%. If this test was repeated 100 times I doubt 25 of those would end in a draw. Maybe 5-10 of them would, which means the odds should be 10-20. Therefore, 4 would be value and you can exit before it reaches 10 (assuming 5-10% is reasonable). Also, if you were laying to win 1pt then you're only risking 3% of your bank if you let it run all the way and it does end in a draw.
That's looking at it from a possibility vs probability perspective and like I said I don't trade cricket so take that with caution and listen to the proper traders. Looking at it from an England fan perspective, I'd be surprised if we made it to Day 5!

Karachi will go ahead. Teams arrived 15 mins ago.

@stuart-wallace draw lay referring to yes

I honestly don't think there's a more incompetent management/selection team, with the players available in World cricket than England over the last 5+ years!
It's pretty much every game, not playing best keeper, never playing a spinner at the right time, bizarre bowling lineup/ balance of team selections. It's like they are trying to handicap themselves every game!
Remember this is the management that picked weaker teams against NZ and India with the sole intention of prioritising the Ashes! And even then didn't play Leach all summer to then through him in on a green wicket in Brisbane after no cricket. It's baffling!

Drip laying 4 and under got to be the order of the day
Richard, forgive my ignorance, you mean Lay the draw ? i assume ?
Pitch looks really flat, so is it not better to see how England fare in their first innings , assuming they are chasing 500+, then getting 301+ would take a day and a bit, so likely be fourth day before Aus get to bat 2nd. Obviously if they get -299 then they are f'd. -
@richard-futter I see Foakes is in AUS with the Lions.

Newbie here, thought i'd introduce myself. Big Cricket fan, and looking to trade all sorts of formats. Will be quite regular on this forum.
Look forward to seeing some of your comments.
Woke up this morning with Aus at 44-1, Backed at 1.57, and traded out with 2 down before the new ball at 1.46. Thought it would have been slightly shorter TBH.
Be gentle with me

@matt-ayles he looks rattled. The England team don't look up for this so wouldn't be surprised if we see a collapse when it comes to our innings.
