New Zealand v Bangladesh

[frankgallagher]

Betfair cuurently have this

NZ 1.18
Bangas 19
Draw 8.6


Now, there's no doubt Bangladesh are the poorest test nation out there, and they are playing an away series (well, 1 test) in conditions that dont really suit, so there's no doubt in my mind NZ should start favourites.

However, there's rain around Hamilton and the forecast for day 1 is quite poor.
I intend to lay NZ @ 1.19, and then set up a back at 1.4ish

Hopefully with the rain arriving, this will drive up the NZ price.

I'm also a little tempted with the draw price, maybe just a little nibble.....

Wow.

Not a ball bowled yat and it's moving as I thought....

Prices now

NZ 1.28
Bangas 20
Draw 5.5


I've set my back at 1.35, so it's heading that way quickly already!!

Once (should I say if) thats matched I'll get green on the draw and NZ, with Bangas all square)

Weather forecast not too great in Hamilton, which will be driving the NZ price up

Good stuff Frank. I'm keeping an eye on this cricket lark. You seem to do alright?

When I check my P/L on betfair, I make more from cricket than anything else.
Helps I genuinely enjoy watching the sport....

Couple of test series coming up in March

Bangladesh v England
NZ v Australia


Both "should" be one sided, but if you keep on top of the weather forecast , you can trade on the draw price if much time is lost
