Well guys, that's it for me for the night.

I'm off to the Oaks tomorrow, before we fire it up again Friday night.

I can only hope it keeps raining or Sachin and Dravid get right on top!

Good luck with whatever you try.

I had some great luck with this game. I was looking to back both teams, during the day before the match the odds i could use were giving a 33% return. With Warne out and bad odds i was going to leave it. Then with around a hour till play the odds were on the move and a 45% return was on the cards. I had to go to the TAB shop to put my bet on, gave my tickets to the ticket lady and with 20 mins left OPTION CLOSED. She rang head office and they said it had been closed early because of rain. I had checked the forecast on BBC and it was showing nothing but sun shine and 35 degrees so i thought it was just an excuse. The ticket lady also said she had just served a guy who put 12k on the same play.
I could make the play now and get a 70% return. 11 overs gone india are 22/2 they may fall over again. I would need the draw to be at +$2.50 to bail out.

Wow, maybe that was bad luck.
India all out for 104
Australia are 1/37 in 12th over. with 53
The draw option is now paying $11.00 at bet365. That would of gave 47% with every option covered. Shit

Australia 44/2
If you are watching this game could you tell me what the weather is doing.
If Australia fall here aswel the odds just might even again. With good weather it would take a draw out of the equation.

Mate weather is all clear. No chance of a draw at this stage. I am screwed...

Well done Fernando, I have done basically the same thing. Layed the Draw @ $2.84
Weather forecast is clear for the last 3 days, so looks almost certain of a result now.
