Hoping to get a lay of India in just above 3. Even with Pant at the crease, I can't see them going too gung-ho straight away and with rain likely within the first half-hour should be in a strong trading position.

@richard-futter play starting 11 correct . cheers for all this
also you'd assume both camps would know so theory batsmen perserve (or try too) there wicket
except pant naturally ha -
Looking at radar, seems we will get a prompt start with some light rain likely around 11.15 but only for a short while. After that looks as if there will be a more substantial fall around 12.15, followed by showers throughout the rest of the day, interspersed with brighter spells. Another on-off day it seems, which should make for some more nice swings.
Laying India just ahead of likely rainfall should make for a win-win situation. If a wicket falls we're quids in, if not the rain should see them drift anyway. That's the theory!
-
@richard-futter liking this .., if goes the other way and IND go well and deep into red I'd be a layer for a swing
-
huge draw drift really wrong side of some of that . all good

Interesting that the draw price has been drifting slightly overnight. Definitely another day to pay close attention to the rainfall radar. The weatherman says it will be something of a lottery today. Some places might even escape the rain altogether - although that looks extremely unlikely at Trent Bridge - but where it does rain, it could be slow moving and torrential.
As for the on-field action, that could be equally unpredictable. With Rishabh Pant at the crease, India could race past England's first innings total in a flash. Equally, with probably the worst tail in world cricket, they could collapse like a deck of cards. Personally, with the prevailing on-off conditions and plenty of cloud cover, I'll be surprised if they carve out a substantial lead.
If any two of Pant, Rahul and Jadeja go early, a lay of India is definitely the order of the day for me.

@luke-weston if this the case market should drop easy 10-15c maybe 20 once the world sees the covers on
im on this scenario and would be happy to green up 1.50-1.45 range and suss from there
if draw did drop to above price range also the possibility it stays stale for a long time
any hints of play naturally will spike up hardmany swings to come think
-
Forecast is for showers all night and then more of the same all morning until 4pm. Might not get much play tomorrow.

Laid India at 2.54.
Happy with that weather looking bad looking to build some more tomorrow with delays.
-
@matt-ayles I think the weather is coming from the South East, so Manchester will be getting it soon!
-
We have play in Manchester for The Hundred, so the rain delay at Notts might not last too long.
-
Those wickets were a little bonus before the rain started! Popped out for lunch and came back to a growing green. Happy to see it keep raining in this test, just not next week when I'm at Lords!
