Draw the favourite in St Lucia

West Indies and India island-hop to St Lucia for the second Test, which starts on Saturday with varying degrees of satisfaction from events in Antigua.

The home side should be buoyed by their efforts as they held on for a draw while India have to bounce back from the disappointment to claim a lead in the four-match series.

The draw is a slightly surprising favourite at 6/5 (2.20) while India are just 11/8 (2.37) and West Indies can be backed at 7/2 (4.50).

Both the two Tests to have been played on St Lucia have ended in draws and it is always worth checking the weather forecast at this time of year as rain is a big possibility.

As you might expect, Dravid heads the betting to be India's top runscorer in the first innings, at 5/2 (3.50) while Virender Sehwag is next best at 4/1 (5.00). Wasim Jaffer is 9/2 (5.50) and Yuvraj Singh is 5/1 (6.00).

VVS Laxman is 11/2 (6.50) to come out on top, while Mahendra Dhoni is a 13/2 (7.50) chance.

No surprise in the West Indies market - Brian Lara is the 3/1 (4.00) favourite, just ahead of the in-form Chris Gayle, at 9/2 (5.50) and Ramnaresh Sarwan, who is 5/1 (6.00).

Daren Ganga and former captain Shivnarine Chanderpaul are both 5/1 (6.00) while Dwayne Bravo is 11/2 (6.50).
