Why would u think that ?
If bowlers have best conditions, they will take wkts, and draw becomes less likely.
I backed eng, and have continued to do so.. thou, admit was getting twitchy.
Wi 49-1
Eng 1.39 (been 1.7)

These games have in the past, had a predictable pattern.
I personally, can't have the draw onside (3.5) seems far too low, as there is no weather, and a low scoring rate required.
Eng may bowl negatively/Wi bat defensively as the afternoon wears on .. so, maybe etc .. but think there will be a result.
My position is largely with Eng, small win WI, small loss on draw.

Amazing game
Drinks after lunch .. Windies need 167 more, 8 wkts left from 50 overs.
Ball not really doing that much.
Eng 3.0
Windies 3.2
Draw 2.9 (went to 2.4???)
Massively against draw

Fair play to the Windies for digging deep and producing an unlikely win. This run chase is the 20th highest run chase achieved since 1877. Not a bad effort!
It remains to be seen if the declaration will make Root more conservative in similar situations in the future. I thought it was a good declaration and he backed his bowlers. Matches like this are why we love sport.

Pretty mad day at Lords .. on a slowish pitch, but, great overhead conditions (for bowling), Windies and England lose 14 wkts.
Rain expected on Day 2, so, Draw at 18. Highlights how much markets have changed .. years ago, draw would be sub, 6.0
Eng 1.16
WI 11
Draw 18
WI 123 All out .. Eng 46-4 ..
At the prices, you could argue, there might be some life in a draw (trade) back .. all depends on how much rain hits tomorrow.
