There is a rhythm to a Test match, a classic structure. Slow, slowish, quick, then quicker still, it all builds to the final act, the shoot-out on the fifth afternoon. Well, not this one. It has marched to the beat of a different drum: super-slow, super-quick, non-existent. Following yesterday's wash-out, more than half the playing time has already elapsed, and we've only had an innings and a bit. The draw is such a hot favourite that if you decide to back it, you'll have to shell out a tenner for every £3 you stand to win.
