Just like earlier in the week a Notts win doubles my return.

A vile game to trade the IPL final and a vile tournament....good riddance for another year. You simply cannot foresee some of the incidents in that game....about 20 of them. Very fortunate to get out of that without serious damage.

One of the markets that has grown over the years, as opposed to many that have shrunk, is Cricket

£75M matched on England-Pakistan so far

Cricket markets were never this big, when I started out many years back

Please forgive my absolute ignorance on the subject but whats the cause of the huge traded volume in Cricket in the last few years. I am assuming it must be some form of courtsiding ?

India is the source of much of that liquidity, especially bookies, how it's finding its way onto betfair is a mystery to me to me as betfair officially pulled out of India a few months ago and afterwards I saw no drop off at all.

We who have cricket as out fave trading sport feel privileged to have them.

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 ?
