Even the squeaky Aussies have it at 12s

There must be some brave Saffers that will lay 18s for 5-0.
Come on it is England for farks sake,bound to be rain.
Is there any anti English that have the nuts to lay a bet,Hibs you must be tempted..

Weather Forecast
The weather, according to various forecasts, is expected to be warm, slightly humid and dry for the duration of the Test, with only day five, on Sunday, potentially seeing a 25 percent chance of rain. This lack of cloud cover, combined with the reportedly dry deck, will hinder the famous conventional swing but encourage spin and reverse swing.

England win the toss and will bat. The fat lady sings the anthems at the start rather than at the end ... oh, all right, maybe she's not fat but she sings like a fat lady, all wobbly-like. Australia (Pattinson) kick off by bowling a wide, and follow that one up with a bye. Two runs to England.
