scummbags Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread The Aussie price should be good for a trade, wait for a wicket then lay. Otherwise probably heavy on the draw. Cant see an England collapse before the rain.:unsure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primevil Posted August 3, 2013 Author Share Posted August 3, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Ok,,,end of play on day 3....day 4 should be a full day...day 5 looks an absolute washout....rain all day is forecast .....so 1 day left IMO....They may get a few overs Monday afternoon..MAY.....294-7...34 to avoid follow on...that's first...then just to block, nudge into that score...if Australia bat again...they will need 350 plus in front before they declare.....YES A DRAW...Only because of Monday....The rain is coming, you can bet on that.

whitepuma Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Hi guys im quite heavily invested in the draw and England over 398 First innings score Do you think this is still on considering 3 wickets in hand and the current score?

Is about right.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitepuma Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Ahhh so alittle bit of an outsider then,Thats a shame But who knows...I think they need 2 sessions to get those 100 runs and maybe once they reach the follow on target they may free up just a little bit...I mean Prior Broad and Swann shouldnt be that slow it simply isnt in their nature especially Prior and Swann....Would you say if they bat 2 sessions they would be over 398 by that stage?

If they manage to bat two sessions then i would be amazed, but then again England would be nearer 500 than 400 if they are somehow still batting come tea tomorrow afternoon!!

whitepuma Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Well I dont see any demons in the pitch at all and if Starc etc can make big runs then why not? The ball goes dead after 30 overs and wickets few and far between...Im keeping my fingers crossed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Ok....we will start on time..but between 2-5 is very doubtful....max today... 60 overs...for me...then the same Monday...no play in my book before 3pm tomorrow.....So knowing the rain is coming today...they may free up once they get the 34... Knowing they will be off for a few hours..BUT THIS GAME IS A DRAW..In no way can I see any other result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Phase 1 today is complete..329-7..follow on avoided, 50 partnership up, I'd say, 2/1 now for a 400 plus score for England... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Yep....money to be made.....Australia 2nd innings...CHRIS ROGERS...3/1..betfair...as he will go for it from the off...Australia need to get 200 plus in their 2nd inns to stand any chance,,,yeah for me he will be top batsman...This will be treated like a 40 over game by Australia...they need to score quick..2.30 pm-4.30 pm..is the rain...but the longer these two hang around..the worse it gets...if they survive another hour till lunch..England will be over the moon..

Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread All out 368.....159 runs behind....maybe 50 overs left today. After interruptions..they need to go at 5 an over...to have any chance of winning.....BUT ULTIMATELY IT'S THE WEATHER THAT WILL WIN...A draw will still be the result....

kevshat Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread I hope for the sake of everyone who has piled on the draw in this test that the rain doesn't miss OT because the draw is a non runner if it doesn't rain.

Westy Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Betting on mother nature is a very dangerous thing. We saw in the recent Champions Trophy where there were a couple of games that were '100% nailed on certainties' to be washed out that got completed.

Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread So...We lost what was expected today....if we start on time tomorrow...Australia need to bat still, 350 is min....he will not want to give England more than 70 overs max...We won't get a 90 over day...my money is still on 60 overs...bad light n rain will be the final winner here,,,the draw is now no price, and if you have backed the draw, and you don't fancy the heart attack...trade out at 1/7..... It will be a draw still IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevshat Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread They don't need to bat. They need to bowl. They can't win otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread So if and a big if.....we had a full day...any captain worth his salt would never ever give a team less than 4 an over to win a match.....so he needs a total that is 100% safe...yes he needs to bat first thing if we start on time...even if he goes for 30 then declares at 11:30...that then goes to about 4.5... Just out of reach..but only just...HOWEVER....we won't get 90 overs...in the day...if Clarke did not bat in the morning and by tea England were 220-3...needing another 100 or so...the Aussie press would hang him....he will not allow England any chance of winning this...The weather will win and be a draw...if u ain't had a bet,,,don't waste your money...wait till Thursday.

kevshat Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread Why does he need to be 100% safe? Whether we win or whether it is a draw they still can't win the Ashes. He will declare overnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread He won't want to lose....with the possibility of a 2-2 draw...still going for him...with only a retention and stopping a humiliating whitewash...he won't give England a sniff...he is in the running for two results...why would he ever want to bring a 3rd into it?..have you seen the Aussie media tear a captain to shreads for cocking up?....ask Kim Hughes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevshat Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread When he scored his ton he said it won't mean anything unless we win because we won't be able to win the Ashes. He'll play to win. He was about to declare when they went off for bad light tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread I'm sure your right, and he also had a few more runs in his mind I'm sure of that...it's not just his decision others will have a say..but the fact that ENGLAND can't win has to be number1...IMO...anyhow we will see what the weather brings in the morning....

kevshat Posted August 4, 2013 Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread They'll want England to be able to win. Makes it easier to get us out. This is a captain who declares behind, who declares on the opening day of a test match. He'll play to win. Even if he declares now England need to get 330 odd in 98 overs which isn't happening unless they bowl some real filth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primevil Posted August 4, 2013 Author Share Posted August 4, 2013 Re: Ashes - In play/Discussion thread England....will IMO use it as a defensive net session,,come what may...they will be thinking about Durham...and putting tired legs into these bowlers...

Primevil Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 A MORE CERTAIN THING.......YOU WILL NEVER EVER SEE.... The draw today, in the 3rd test....more chance of a meteor striking earth today, than this not happening today....The easiest money you will ever pick up off the ground...1/8 bet victor.....1/10 most others....FREE MONEY..IM TELLIN YA...Go and pick it up.....even if it stops raining....it still takes 90 mins minimum to clear the surface afterwards..
