@lee-conroy I'm loving your confidence, although the last time England fought back from this position to win an Ashes match, W.G.Grace was the captain!
-
@matt-ayles Good value on laying Aus @1.21. 2/3 wickets in the first session and that price is going to move! Really fancy Woakes to swing the ball on that wicket and woods to bounce a couple out!
-
Im still very surprised that we batted first. However I wouldnt fancy batting last on this wicket. Spinners paradise last 2 days probably. Hoping for loads of clouds tomorrow so hopefully favour some swing bowling, shame Jimmy and Stuart are not playing. From a trading perspective Im hoping Australia bat long and slow and that Smith has a good innings, might make the draw easier to lay. Failing that Im hoping the weather intervenes enough to make the draw price steam in. Off work tomorrow so I might stay up and watch.
-
@dan-peacey forecasts seem patchy so it could be a very stop-start test which favours the bowlers as batsmen can't get settled.
I had laid the draw and already greened up but I feel the price on Aus is too short given that Eng haven't had a ball yet. Seems a bit presumptive... -
Now attention switches to brisbane, can England bowl as well as the aussies? I fancy AUS to probs take out a 250-300 lead and bat once. Hopefully that doesn't happen and hoping that weather may further affect proceedings. I won't enter just yet, need to see how AUS bat on this pitch, can we get Smith out cheaply?
-
All over! Amazing finish to that match. Gotta love test cricket.
-
really needed 22 off 3 styles for entertainment
Babar classic

-

@james-woodroffe 100% if it's day night at the G it will be a sell out
I will be in Melbourne then I think so I’m hoping we get it.

A pink ball test at the G would be awesome. Hopefully they get the 5th as a trial. If it’s about the money they will but Hobart or Canberra would still be good.
-
@sean-fitzgerald you'd expect mcg to get it. Tas missed out on a women's test already with Afghanistan. 5th test big chance of being a dead rubber I wouldn't be shocked if it's tas.
-
Closed out now for the Bang v Pak test with draw at odds on. Good shout @Nathan-Bennett squeezed out some more green. I’m off now to be our man on site in Pakistan. First trip there in 17 years looking forward to it.
-
36 overs left, 4 wickets needed for Pakistan! 63 runs for bang to survive. Tense finish I think.
-
what a 2 days in the magical Dhaka tea fast approaching draw will steam in more you'd think if no wickets
unsure extra 1/2 hour thing
chaos wicket what a test glad got out
crazy luck BANG -
To be fair it was a big ask to force a result from 2 and a half days of test match cricket, however Pakistan are doing a great job, only 5 wickets to get. Need to finish the job before Bangladesh get another 70 odd runs. Say it gets close to the end of the day and Pakistan need say 20-30 runs to win can they ask for the extra half hour?
-
Small LAY hurricanes would love 1.4 start dripping out
loss taken maybe another entry toward end INNS
t20 to hard trade and post
2 losers put up here yet won last night ha
think i'll avoid commentary on these
unless it ramps up by othersleave it all for tests
-
Come on BANG keep scoring take the lead grandstand finish
If draw goes odds on squaring all up
