WI v SL

that filth needs to hit and hit hard

night watchman goes and its hail mary on lankas for me

I might go again when Gabriel is spent. Still too dangerous with a new batsman. If they make it to lunch I would take a lower price

I'll wait for Gamage to go and then bet on a massive partnership.

u really thinks gamage will be out next

sounds like your sitting pretty WD

did it turn much yesterday?

detraveller • June 10, 2018 12:19 PM BST
I have a feeling Mendis may go early and make it a dull contest.

One thing I learnt from Grant is to have all aspects covered.

Almost topped up at 5.1 there too. Oh well.

big win coming for windies here, no batting left after these 2 mugs

pizza,beer,hookers,coke,early wickets...grant taught me well too

Not much and not terribly quickly. The variable bounce seems to be from one end and on a just back of a good length for seamers.

cheers FS

Tom must be doing good business on the 1 dayer, he has been proven right again.......nothing to worry about with that chase.

toms probably booking another holiday ffs

Detraveller is quite pleased to announce that he has a 600+ green on the Scotland game. Which makes up for the 500 red here.

A pro trader never doubts himself. It's only the haters that make all the noise.

nice one DT

The draw lay came too late to jump on England at 1.7I boldly took the 4.7. Rain or more cloud or even a few dots should bring it in. Could train of course, with another wicket.

4.7 nice FS

Amazing how quick the draw drops below 4

It does yes, 4 to 3.5 doesn't take long.

Sitting prettier Terry,

I would have probably had an ulcer but 2.62 was a steal. Coulda shoulda backed my original judgement but the ball is 70 overs old and they are making it talk!

Unfortunately I layed the draw yesterday at 20-25 as I was convinced they could not win but that restricted me yesterday to WI lays rather than draw backs but I can't complain 11.75 WI red now!

Need to be patient and jump when the market over reacts

WI win is the only fast train. Draw will be the slow train with plenty of opportunities to get off!

5 ticks difference between matchbook draw price and betfair at the moment. Someone desperate to back the draw at 3.2 to 3.4

already been som great moves in that first hour,shame i ballsed a few up!

I am hoping for a partnership now.

gamage gone

dickwella doesnt usually hang around but took his time 1st innings

this team is so bad, whoever layed evens for windies an hour aho must be reaching for the pills

They were not evens an hour ago you mug.

yeh they were

no they weren't

Are you getting ready to give the tennis forum a spanking? They made fun of you, me and the great game of cricket when i told them I backed Nadal because G said so.

yeah well done on rafa G,another poster for your bedroom

dickwella wants early finish

It was a week and a half ago. They called me the cricket guy and you some filthy words which i dare not repeat(though you are probably used to)

steam will be buying a couple of easyjet tickets from bucharest to London in a few mins, making the trip back after he was kicked out

oh I remember now det!

when rafa drifted a bit after his first round match!

yes

rafa hit evens when a set down to some player i forgot

Yes I backed him there too. But I am down 70 bucks in the outright. Had some great bets incl ones at 150 and 90 which both halved. Got Sloane at 25 which i cashed out in the final. Still lost because of Zverev and Djokovic.

diego schwartzman!

thats him

I had a 300 euro free bet on nadal not dropping a set which was ruined by schwartzmann. I layed in that market at 1.11 when nadal was 0-3 down in a set in second round i guess.

come on lanks,some runs please

well done steam!

I don't like to say itbut I told you so

There is some filthy could to the South. I have gone in again. Hoping to get out before lunch but there will be a new ball after lunch so I may have cooked my goose. We shall see. I have some Barossa Valley Shiraz so now I don't really care!

Grant,

You missed some controversy earlier. There was a no ball but no free hit. WTF I thought, that's not cricket but ashley it is!

wow 300 euro free bet, thats some VIP status right there, not sure even grant gets free bets that big

Barossa Valley Shiraz...SWISH

4444444

No tom, by free bet i mean I covered my exposure down to zero and had 300 euro on nada not dropping a set and zero on him dropping a set.

they should introduce free hits to test cricket, give the crowd a quick buzz

can't believe Eng still 1.2!!!

They are on track to chase it down with 10 overs to spare

444444 INTENT

4444444

THey might have a go with the new ball before lunch break

windies not appealing

anyone betting on a wicket before lunch?

It will be a massive wicket with massive returns.

but who has the balls?

maybe 1 over with the new ball before lunch

lol

oh ffs chandi ass
7 mins til lunch

did u do it DT?

No

nor did I

In fact I had backed draw with 100 bucks so it hurt.

ffs what was he thinking there?

sh1t...rafa wins so u can collect

and there was a long on!...joke

if jucel was online his blood pressure would have been out of control.

outty

layed 1.02

Lanka today have shave 25% off my return here.

I will not bitch though as long as England bring home the bacon.

ah well,another time for the hail mary to land
always leave a tip

Eng just lost a wicket while i was laying 1.05

This win makes up for the scottish run lines lay earlier today... but overall a good day !!

Shocking end to the session for me.

Hoping for rain again. can't see any but the hope was always around 4pm but they need to survive till then at best and they have a new ball and Shannon Gabriel to face. Most unpleasant! The another session against Chase and Bishoo. Looks like game over!

Yeah just stayed put with my position!! Thanks for the advise

Yup game over. No point wasting your money hoping SL to do something from here. Everything stacked against them.

Chandimal horror shot

Well that 7.4 SL price at start of play looks a long way off now. If I'd had the balls I'd have layed the f out of it, it was always the wrong price for a world record chase. Still, ended up +520 WI, +1,500 SL, +650 draw. Think I'll leave it there. Just one test match loss this year (-75 on the 2nd NZ v Eng test match)...roll on the next one...

Good grief, what an end!

The end usually comes quickly but not that quickly and usually after tea!  Some dumb shots from SL in both innings but that is how it goes. I think SL may be more competitive next match. They need another batsman and the batsmen not to capitulate like n the first innings. Great game.

Had some success picking the pennies up under the steamroller today but got some green flattened in the end, of course. I know better but I still do it.

Went out for the evening, leaving a few k of green on the draw ..... not a great choice in hindsight.
2.5k win in the end instead of 10 but better than a kick in the jacobs.
Probably would have lost on the England game so I'll call it evens and move on!
