Live on Skysports 1: Sat 10.30: England declared on 474-8 in the 1st Test and are quoted at 12/5 (bet365) to beat India.
Lord’s was basked in sunshine on day 2 and England made good progress, Kevin Pietersen landing his 19th Test century and ending on 202, and England ticked along nicely before exploding into life to end their innings on 474-8 declared.
It was a surprising declaration which shunted the odds in from 12/5 to 7/4 (Skybet) for an England win as Strauss looks to beat the weather but after India saw out a tricky patch for no loss, bet365 put 12/5 back on the board for the home side. Punters are still keen on the draw, which remains strong odds-on fav at 4/9 (Sportingbet) while India are right out at 22/1 (Betdaq).
This test is not over yet and perhaps the draw price is a little pessimistic.
