Australia are gonna do this!

A lot of folk obviously think so. Odds are now 11/8. England still favourites, though, at 8/13.

Now 5/4 (England 4/6)

i forget, as the pitch gets worse does this favor the bowlers or the batters? surely the batters?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Australia Evens (England 5/6)

 

[hybrid_x]

surely good to back england now - and then if the ozzies get to be supreme favorites say 1/2 then back them heavily....surely some arbiterage in that?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Australia and England now joint favourites at 10/11.

I think the pattern of the game will change as the shine wears off and the ball starts to turn for Swann and reverse swing for Anderson, I expect a few mini-collapses

Your advice is being followed. Australia have drifted out to 1/1. England 5/6.

Backed England, too far to go for Aussies at Evens

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Australia now favourites at 5/6. England evens.

63/0 in the real game.

 

[pasty]

Starting to look ominous. I know there's an awful long way to go, but could do with an England breakthrough sooner rather than later.

 

[del strangefish]

Breakthrough before tea please!

i see these situations very tasty.....back england heavily......then if ozzies run away with it and get to say 1/4 favorites, then back them even more heavily to cover losses of the first bet. there is no way it can be a draw (will be all out or beat the run target in 2.25 days).

Australia have got this in the bag, no chance of a wicket before tea.

 

[Danny-Boy]

As young master Agar has shown ... this is a test match where records can be broken. There's loads of time and scope for at least four or five decent batsmen to build a biggish innings.

Have the Aussies stated where he's batting in this innings, Lord B?

I doubt if they'll say. More than that. I doubt if they've yet decided.

It's not the Sussex bowling attack you know ?
