Would be intriguing to know how much of that is actual positions vs traded in and out volume. Also how much of it comes from Betfair and how much via the Asian white labels.

India has, I believe, recently banned online gambling, with measures in place to punish banks and transaction providers which facilitate payments. I thought cricket volumes might drop off as a result, but that Asia Cup match suggests otherwise.

Nice work.

So the profit to traded volume % for your trading on that market is 0.9%. A very broad assumption I know, but if you apply that ratio across the whole market then £105m traded volume would equate to less than £1m actually changing hands, and only about £20k commission for Betfair.

My understanding is that a large percentage of cricket volume is position taking, this is relative to racing/football.
