@Tony-Hastie as I said, you should definitely lay WI with every penny you have, they will crumble in no time at all. What do I know.
Pity for the game as it could have been really exciting tomorrow. Might not be a day 5 now.

@Fraser-cord I was laying it if they got to 100 for 0....the fell 40ish short
.....and will be lucky to get 100 all up
-
@Tony-Hastie normally yes. However il not be for a couple of reasons.
- England bowlers inexperienced (no Anderson/Broad)
- The pitch is playing very well (usually they are bowler friendly by now)
There's still a very real chance England win comfortably but I'm not willing to put my cash on it. Should be an excellent watch though without having to worry about my bank balance.
-
Windies have a record total to chase, would hoping they get a good start then laying them be the play here? Currently at 8.2...

@Nathan-Bennett thinking the same, but going to wait another hour in the hope England start to tee off pre lunch, might bring the price down a little as more time to bowl WI out
Little in the pitch so far, wickets could be hard to come by.
Well that went to plan

ENG WI
Another poke at a ENG LAY 1.16
See how this goes
Suspect ENG bat until last session or close to it
Will take stake back 1.3's and monitor -
Missed most of today so hopefully money made by others.
I have greened up for now, wondering if milage in ENG lay tomorrow, would expect it to hit 1.10-1.15 at innings change. It's not a given they win this, the belief is WI just fold but the pitch still looks good for batting.
Feel they need to be 350-400 ahead by lunch or not much after to give enough time. A solid WI start would surely push the price up as draw/WI win come in.
Still expecting a result but wouldn't want to be exposed on the draw.

ENG WI
Having another poke at a ENG LAY 1.31
…
Didn’t look at the runs line when 8 down
Suspect would of gone over
I’ve seen the WI #11 do this against AUS
…
ENG 1.51 taking stake back on that 1.31 lay
…
And any green on the draw market now made zero laying it all @9
Wicket soon and either England wickets or fast runs to hold the market surely
…
Greening up laying WI 3.75 for now -
@Nathan-Bennett great trade well done!
-
ENG WI
A great example in the case of WI not being able to play worse and only way is up
Glad worked out here
ENG 1.15-1.55 is very healthyeyes turn towards WI and Draw lays for swings
-
@Stuart-Wallace just home, managed to get on just above 6, but seems I missed my next entry by 1 tick. Oh well.
Still looking at a nice green for now. Can't see the draw back in play until the 4th innings unless the tail wags. Overcast Forecast for tomorrow too so hopefully plenty of wickets.
-
@Nathan-Bennett This has aged well, nice bit of green to play with now, cheers

Ages ago got on a lay while on road
ENG 1.15 lay
Runs line sitting around 434
Suspect England market stays stale if no continual wickets
Think safe lay for some time -
draw now down to sub 6. A good time to lay - 1 more wicket and then into the bowlers. Can see WI being all out for sub 300.

@Nathan-Bennett the prices have changed more overnight than they did during the day. I've gone a small back to lay on the draw now at 13.5, hoping it drops to around 10 quickly after the start.
Just need a good WI start, should be sunny all morning so hopefully they get through the 1st 10 overs then can start to score a bit. I'm out for today so just going to set my draw lays and hope some get taken. Will leave my ENG lay for now but will take out liability around 1.25.
Excellent, got out of my draw back to lay at 9.6 inside 3 overs.
Looks an excellent day for batting, hopefully WI can get some runs now and bring other trades into play. -
All ENG wickets were caught ?
Wonder if that a first -
@Fraser-cord Yes something low to lay be great
Big key will be WI avoiding follow on and by some margin like 320 -
@Nathan-Bennett been monitoring all day. Hardly any change, including during that rapid start (maybe the early wicket didn't help).
Draw was around 10 too. Didn't get below 8.6 in the 1st test. Can hopefully get it 7.0 or below once WI bat.

Something i mess around only small stakes sometimes
Back runs lines over when teams 8 down
Tail wagging happens a lot
WI actually made me a few dollars last test ha
