Get to work and sky sports news breaking that the 5th test is called off. Guess there'll be no cricket for me today then!
-
Sky sports headline is that it’s cancelled
-
Lots of rumours of no play today, draw dropped right down to 2.1 and now drifting
The weather forecast is looking better and better the closer we get, heading off to Manchester soon so will swing by Old Trafford for best weather update, assuming no official news comes in of postponing play today
-
I have been riding the draw wave yesterday and today. Nice bit of green to start the match. Beady eye on the weather tomorrow!
-
India have cancelled training today due to a positive covid test in the coaching staff.
-
Some decent money in queue wanting to back the draw . Tmr if the covers are on surely close in close to odds on
-
@chris-osborne I hadn't expected him to be available for selection I couldn't see him wanting to travel. There are some great players hopefully it will be a good competition.
-
@clare-taylor No real surprises for me, Ben Stokes not being available is massive but something's are far more important
-
T20 World Cup squad has been announced. Anyone got any thoughts?
I'm looking forward to seeing Livingstone and hope Malan lives up to his reputation.

I'm loving the lay of the draw again at Old Trafford. Looking at both the BBC and Met Office forecasts, there will be rain but not nearly enough to justify draw odds of 2.5.
Only one of the last 12 matches in Manchester has ended in a draw - although, admittedly, only one of those was in September - and with India facing Covid issues, we could easily see another England bounceback.
Australia are the only visiting side to have won there since 2001, and a draw is useless to England. They have to be proactive and press for a result. I don't see Kohli setting out to draw the match either and - barring two days of rain - I'll be amazed if the draw price doesn't trade at least double it's current price.
I won't be laying beforehand though, as it always pays to see the lie of the land tomorrow morning when the price could easily dip in with early rain or a decent opening stand.
It will certainly be worth keeping a weather eye on the rain radar.

Draw price nice could free roll 3.3-2.3 see how deep it goes when play starts
-
Learning lesson after yesterdays greed and greening up at 2.08
Tidy profit for the day, nothings really come up in the St Kitts v JT game for me, may wait and see how St Kitts fair after 10 overs and look at a lay other wise that's me done for the day.
-
Laid Ireland at 1.6 think there is still value laying that at 1.8 will be a long slog for them to win this.
-
Not as easy as expected there, only 7 boundaries in the innings and great fielding from NZ

46 runs needed in 54 balls

Just a couple lay to backs on Ireland and Bangladesh for me, both and in and out within a couple of overs.
Roll on CPL at 3

ENGvIND Looking at the weather radar it looks like there will be minimal rain in Manchester on Friday morning as it stands and pretty clear for rest of the test.
Not sure how long draw price will stay where it is so will be having a small lay on the draw and will top up if it drops much lower assuming no change in forecast.
Draw price drifting again, think this will keep rising now
