Dead pitches are an existential threat to cricket. Sadly, Indore was rated "poor" but we can bet this crap pitch won't be.

In the other WTC-relevant series, the money's still with NZ...
NZ v SL 1st Test
NZ 1.48
SL 4.80
Draw 5.50
If you just look at the scores, it looks closer than that!

I went with the draw!!K wrote:... I guess we can ignore the draw.
'Cos of the rain, of course. Sheesh... Losing 4 1/2 hours play on the final day, when they needed 257... Has to be a draw, right?
But the best batsman of his generation, Kane Williamson, rewrote the script!!

Did you watch it, Lazza? I supposedly had coverage. But it wasn't the right match! It was PNG playing some pajama cricket!!
(Dunno if it was 50-over or 20-over.)So I couldn't see what has happening! Didn't know how many balls were left.
The punters stayed with NZ almost all the way. At some point near the end, NZ's odds were 1.005. SL's were 71-ish. How is that possible?? NZ needed 15 runs from the last 2 overs, 8 wickets down! How can you be 1.005?? Surely a draw, maybe even a loss, is possible.
