West Indies v Aust. Draw is presently 2.0 (evens). 2 days to go. Had a lay of £200. Hope it doesn't rain.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Had a lay on India @1.94 and hedged out all the way up to 10 for a £92 profit. Brilliant England keep getting better.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Hedging out now. Not sure about this game yet.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Laying England @2.14 early in the game. They're batting first and the ball could do a bit early on. Long way from winning the game.

Eyes on Trent Bridge for the 2nd test match and will be waiting for a decent entry point into 1 of the markets

W.I. v Ind. 2nd Test. Laid the draw at 2.7. Now laying W.I. at 3.3.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Had a cheeky lay of WI @ 2.94, thinking scoring will be difficult.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

W.I. v Ind. 1st Test. Wickets tumbled yesterday. Pitch spinning on day 1. WI over 200 behind and could struggle against Bhahjji/Mishra.

Looks like the weather has won at the Rose Bowl and it's a draw. Well done SL for great batting today. Match profit: £44.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Eng v SL 3rd Test. So far have managed to trade into £40 positive territory. Woopee! Game's is not over yet. Could easily lose it today.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Eng v SL 3rd Test. A rollercoaster of uncertainty about the weather. Will it rain? When? How much? How long for? Can England finish it?

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

If the weather is kind and there is more pace and swing around then wickets could send the draw out again

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

The draw is odds on with the Bookies. Given last 2 tests, strong batting sides, weather and possible flat pitch, it seems reasonable.

Eng v SL 3rd Test. Average trade price for lay of draw = 1.93.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Eng v SL 3rd Test. The CT 2nd trade. Lay draw at 1.84.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Eng v SL 3rd Test. The CT 1st trade. Lay draw at 2.02.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Eng v SL 3rd Test. Anderson back for England gives more variety. Dilshan out for SL. Advantage England. Pitch and weather are unknowns.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Eng v SL 3rd Test. Draw now down to 1.82 from 3 and they haven't tossed a coin yet. Weather forecast looks dodgy.

[Cricket Trader @cricket_trader]

Eng v SL 3rd Test. Pre-match trading. The draw has come in from 3.0 to 2.2 and is tempting to lay. Keep an eye on the weather.
