Big Win In 5th Odi With Difference

Yesterday P/L +1020.8
This is the biggest win since start of blog and it is interesting that main contribution is from going against bowling team when target was high in 2nd inning than back them with topup.Another thing which i want to mention is that in first inning our first trade looking going against us and then we recover.So it is a win with difference.
We will discuss each innings trade in 5th Odi one by one:
1st Inning:
You can see in my inplay post that our planning was small back of England around 1.9+ along with other plans and my prediction was that market favouring England and any wicket may cut england by 0.3 at least but this was not happened and Indian openers after quiet start going for shots and soon there was flip flop.Then India odds starts shortening and reached to 1.4x zone,it was a true 'free lay' simply because if India make 300 or 320 than even odds going to be in 1.4x zone.It happened two or three times that odds drifted to 1.6x zone from 1.4x or 1.5x zone specially after fall of 1st two wickets and because of these lay and back we were in small green position on India after the end of 1st inning.
2nd Inning:
India made 324 and odds was 1.48 after 1st inning.I mentioned inplay that if the match looking to be high scoring then we will do most of the trading in 2nd inning.And the plan was to back 'India 1.8+ if comes early or lay them in 1.2' if there is couple of early wickets.But infact we find India odds around 1.2 after fall of 1st wicket (cook) due to slow start of England.And lay of India at 1.2 looking good when there odds started upwards with England batsmen hitting.I back India at 1.45,1.59 and 1.88 with top up.Then some quick couple of wickets and India odds shortened to 1.16 and this was our exit point.
So this win is different because first trade was not good,than a free lay,than lay of bowling team in 2nd inning although it was high chase and lastly back them with top up.Things going well in our side most of the times (fingers crossed).
P.S:
Just a little mention of P/L of last match i traded before 5th Odi (warwickshire v lancashire) I left that match in middle with a small profit of 38.7 due to some important work and thats why there was no inplay update after first.
Busy with some urgent work and probably miss todays pro40 match.If i got time than may be inplay post in 2nd inning.Best wishes to all.
