@james-woodroffe Hi James how you been mate? Very detailed and interesting post . I have been reading this thread recently trying to learn from you guys who are much more knowledgeable than myself on Cricket.
I like cricket and no a bit but nothing to the levels of you guys, i am going to start small on the test just starting and see how i go.
is this the sport of choice now for your trading ? -
2nd test in Galle starting tomorrow and interesting that both sides are priced at the time of this post at 2.32 with the draw currently at 7.40 to lay. No rain expected and a very dry pitch which will take spin early. If Lakmal is again deemed underdone Sri Lanka could well go in with 4 frontline spinners and just the 1 quick. England have made just the one change bringing in Jimmy Anderson and resting Stuart Broad which to me seems ludicrous. Nothing obviously against Jimmy and I understand they resting Broad for India but I’d be resting Wood as Broad was outstanding in the first test and in particular that 1st innings where SL were bundled out for 135. We can rule out a draw and possibly even a 5th day. I’d expect the team who wins the toss to bat first and I have infinitely more faith in England than a rebuilding Sri Lanka.
Not sure as yet I reckon Richard obviously has a better idea going forward but if England bat first if they get settled a back should be the way forward and hopefully they score around 350+ and that draw price comes in a touch more as batting last will be a nightmare. The same can’t be said for SL as they are prone to collapses but having said that if they do bat first and collapse that draw price will balloon right out. Maybe also 7.40 is value already for a draw lay as tests in SL get results
the first session will tell a lot as will obviously the toss. Either way someone is losing that’s a given. -
another lay of Afghanistan at 1.07 this partnership keeping Ireland alive and again 1.20 would be nice.
-
@nathan-bennett yeah mate the same here a little green will leave it now Stirling key and Rashid yet to bowl could be interesting last 5 overs but out now for a bit and yep SL v ENG tomorrow and big bash double header but better than all that I have Friday off from this homeschool caper........There goes Stirling game over.
-
@james-woodroffe couldnt resist the 1.2 took some . anyways the real stuff tmr SRI ENG
-
They might have had the 2 matches against UAE cancelled but Ireland definitely with the 2 matches under their belt a bit of an advantage over Afghanistan.
was a 4 match series.
-
@nathan-bennett yeah mate happy days so far.
-
@james-woodroffe good swing already
-
Lay of the Afghans here at 1.07 not expecting them to lose but if Stirling gets well set 1.30 would be nice.
-
worst surge ever still backed @90 and got that out @42
-
atleast ireland fighting to chop me out tonight . power surge failure 2 wickets 2 balls ha... crazy tho $95 worth a peanut till its finished
-
@nathan-bennett yeah lay of Strikers here just to look for a bit more green 1.75 would be lovely if not will see how they tracking post 10. Just looking to lock in a bit more green before I got to close up.
-
Having a little lay strikers hoping for 1.75 to free roll the rest . if goes pear look to back them power surge ... few games back heat in trouble did same thing backed @11 boundary lay@6 crazy markets #bestreally
-
@james-woodroffe nice get there
-
something for the battlers red out @1.3 . green out @1.15 and drip some out @1.5-1.7 be superb
-
@nathan-bennett giving it a wide berth at the moment mate.Got the strikers at 2.0 and now 1.36 will leave that till end of innings I think and check the Ireland run chase out during the back end.
-
@James-Woodroffe having a lay AFG as old mate approaches 100 .. 1.3 before 1.1 be nice
-
@james-woodroffe any angles here . surely market stale till closing 10 overs ish . proof of a IRE partnership maybe the way ... IRE digging in
-
Ireland v Afghanistan series will be live on Free Sports for those with Sky or Virgin in the U.K. with the first of 3 ODI’s tomorrow morning.
Afghanistan will go in as favourites a pretty new look Irish side but should be competitive cricket.
Sky have also secured the rights to the PSL which will begin late February. -
