Curious as to what odds I could have got at the end of day 4 - anyone any idea?

I heard that the draw was 30/1 on. The odds on a victory must have been absurd! I just wish I'd listened to myself yesterday at work when I said the Aussies were the only team that could win the test.

I'm going to have a few quid on England to retain the Ashes though, the odds on this must be quite daft now. Win, draw, win - job done!

At the close of play on day 4 Australia were available at 10/1 for the win.

10/1 I'm surprised it wasn't better - more 25/1 plus. It was an incredibly unlikely win!

I don't know, it was England they had to beat. I bet if the situation was reversed the odds on an England win would be higher.
