Surprised this isn't up & running yet...

Aussies are $1.50 currently, & they are 1/82

like the Draw option if it gets out to $4-00+....rain about and Gabba pitch is a road, Sri Lanka have had some great results on the road recently and bat well, without Warne and McGrath and the x factor Tait I struggle to see us bowling them out twice....

i backed the draw ($3.60) last night because of the forecast (i know they make up time) & i agree with what dutchy says & i'll add these blokes will show more fight than the poms did (& do)

ps, still happy to be on after day 1

I know you've got the weather to help the draw but as a rule Australia dont play in too many.

with McGrath and Warne...your right

just took the $3.85 on offer for the draw...looking at the forecast the weather might help this one, Aussies bat all day tomorrow then Sri Lanka have to bat for 3 days, but remember Aussies dont enforce follow ons so that may kill some time also....

Forecast for Friday
A few showers, chiefly afternoon and night. Mostly moderate SE winds.


Precis: A few showers
City: Min 17 Max 25
Bayside: Min 17 Max 24

Saturday Shower or two Min 19 Max 25
Sunday Shower or two Min 18 Max 25
Monday Mostly fine Min 19 Max 24

I had a couple of bets on this game.

Had Phil Jaques to make in between 26-50- That obviously failed.

Stuart Clarke to take the most wickets.

Went for Australia at $1.50 and the Draw at $4.50

$1.50 aus win is a good price IMO- they can make up alot of time in a test match these days with extended hours, early starts etc. Good call taking both win and draw. In hindsight $100 on aus to win- and $50 on the draw is almost a free bet really,

Aussies still the same price to win as they were at the start of the game.....WTF???

This session gonna be a crucial one for the outcome of the match I reckon. If Aussies can get some quick runs, declare and pick up a wicket or 2 tonight they'll be huge favourites. However, if Sri Lanka can restrict the runs a little and perhaps force Australia to bat out the rest of the day (or be 0 down tonight if they have a hit) then the draw could be back on the cards. It looks an absolute belter of a deck, only getting quicker. Should still be prime to bat on tomorrow and day 4.
