This point absolutely a gamble on the weather and where market sits and guesstimate of the starting price
Trade targets this far out
Happy to see what happens first odds on or a loss around 5.50-$6 wouldn’t hurtAnd yeah previous test took what 300 overs to complete
I hope for bulk cricket
Ideally odds on draw and flip the book hard
-
@chris-osborne are you referring to a particular weatherman I was told about who made a rather big blunder once upon a time?
-
@james-woodroffe isn’t it a bit risky to be believing UK weather forecasters who aren’t exactly known for there accuracy
-
@dj-reid I guess with the extra day mate the point is to try and minimise the prospect of a draw and weather forecasts are weather forecasts.
Both sides have excellent pace attacks so also maybe with overhead conditions a result is still favoured. This sounds naive but where is this awful weather coming from?
I live in Hampshire and will be at the match so I’m seriously hoping for lots of cricket. -
@nathan-bennett said in BTC Cricket Trading Thread:
@dj-reid spot on see what happens
Gutted from a spectical point of view
Chance market odds on by Friday Saturday perhapsThis may sound a stupid question then. If the weather forecast is accurate, why are people not lumping on the draw? Is this not a case of easy money?
-
@james-woodroffe still grim
-
@nathan-bennett just be aware there is a 6th day for the WTC final in case a whole day is lost.
-
@nathan-bennett is this purely because of the weather forecast you have backed the draw?
-
Backed draw for a trade
If rained out
Surely fair result NZ world number 1 get the final trophy on default count back whatever haha
Due
-
Onto India go on NZ
-
Always hard to lay a likely eventual winner
Laying Nz with 10% of my green
Basically backing this 4th wicket stand
1.8 would be great add to bank -
Happy days just closed out with the draw at 14.0 after laying late yesterday at 3.40. Nice bounce back after Lords.
-
If Eng get the last wicket fairly quickly, when they come into bat is it still worth an Eng lay at say anything below 3.0?
My assumption is the loss of a few early wickets and the Eng price will drift heavily. But if no wicket the price will be fairly stable?
-
Hard to see anything other than a NZ win here, unless something really dramatic happens. Wood and Stone look ineffective and the lack of a genuine spinner is a glaring mistake. Leach should certainly have played.
-
@richard-futter interesting when Nz take lead and punch on and throw the bat when 7-8 down how market reacts plenty time in this weird so short
-
@nathan-bennett I've noticed that prices around 3.5 are often an excellent support point. The price has been around that mark for the past 20 minutes, so a great point to lay the draw with a very low risk and a great upside if a wicket falls.
-
Out and about keeping it simple lay draw 3.8
-
Match looks nicely poised. Still good value in laying the draw I think. A stalemate is highly unlikely I reckon - in my book it should be around 10.0.
-
Managed to get a draw lay in at 3.40 just before Conway wicket. Green building nicely.
