Surprised you can still get odds of nearly 3 when it's looking like rain most days!

Drw will blow out bigtime once people realise there will be a full days play first day.
      By ennd of day kiwis will probbly hve been bowled out and match well advanced

Forecast has improved further , most likely first two days will be uninterupted with just a few showers on sunday.

The price of draw now way too short and will come in for a massive correction in the morning when reality dawns.

  I can understand people being nervous about the weather, but really they should be far more nervous about the ability of the kiwi batsmen to even make it past the first sessiom

agree with ratkin get out of draw now likely to be higher on friday. buy draw back on friday evening weather looks like it could be average sat,sun and monday. hopefully the draw is trading at a good price friday

100 traded at 1.25 already.. someone's keen Wink

nz batting line-up improved, but still think this is a result. last 25 matches 24% drawn, plus the forecast really doesn't seem that bad atm

I posted the weather for the first test and got it spot on.

This test will be badly affected by rain on the first 3 days......70% chance of rain day 1.....60% day 2.....80% day 3.Days 4 and 5 dry and sunny.

Of course this c r a p New Zealand batting line up could be bowled out twice on days 4 and 5!!!!!

There are bad storms in NZ at the moment.

Forecast has been improving significantly over the last few days according to my readings - not that it was ever particularly bad.

A cautious draw lay for me to start with.

Groundsman saying the saturated outfield will remain a problem for the entire match , with more rain epected tomorrow night
By:

When: 22 Mar 12 22:08
Another problem is going to be light , this wikll be an issue every day , thats what happens when you play in autumn , so will be no chance to make any time up , i reckon both sides would settle for a draw

Now they talking about afternoon start :-(

PTTT was reading the groundsman report other day and the reason they cant put the full covers on was the high winds in this part of NZ is a major problem once blew the heavy roller from one end of the pitch to the other

2.6 is a lay for me on the draw. No such thing as a free lay but this is an inexpensive one!
