Three people, three parts of a live price

A live cricket market asks three different questions: what the two prices beside a team mean, what a run line is doing over by over, and what to do with a bet once the price has moved. The site is split the same way, and each page has one person answerable for its sums.

Three plain closed notebooks with smooth covers in soft blue, rose pink and amber lying side by side on a dark glossy desk under a cool blue lamp glow, a black pen resting across the middle one and a white cricket ball at the right edge of the frame, soft reflections on the polished surface

Farhan Kapadwala — the moves

Hedges worked in rupees, and telling a price moved by the match from a price moved by money. Wrote loss cut and market load, and checks the figures on the bonus page.

How a page gets checked

Every rupee figure on a page is re-worked by a second author from the formula printed beside it. If the two sums disagree, the page waits.
