How come the draw is not part of the main match odds market ? It's hard to trade the draw then ?

The Draw is offered as a tradeable option on all 4 or 5 day Test matches, or 3-4 day county games.

One day games (20 overs, 40 overs or 50 overs) cannot end in a Draw. It's a Tie if scores are level .. and all bets are voided.

Test matches can end in a Tie .. but it's like 1 in 200 yrs, so don't worry about it.

It's not just Indian money in the markets .. Sports hedge funds are also in there.

This looks safe and Bangladesh don't appear to be at it today so will let this run all the way down to hopefully 1.01

Are you picking specific moments in the match to trade in and out to lessen the risk of being caught with a big move ?

Yeah I try and pick spots where it feels value price and then slowly extricate myself, usually 1 tick at a time. Sometimes I am massively wrong.

If you can make small amounts consistently then over time with scaling up you could do well, theres so much liquidity there

How big a factor do the weather conditions have in the cricket match odds market?

Important especially in red ball cricket, when its overcast the ball swings and when the sun is out any moisture in the wicket dries out.

South African women show a complete lack of intent at times with bat.

Keeping an eye on the market today for England v Pakistan

Noticed theres a good 30 second delay between a large market move and the 'live' pictures on Sky

So, presumably, the market is being moved by courtsiders or people with access to very fast feeds ?
