In your view, based on the information below, who is most likely to win this test match?
Team A is currently batting in the 4th innings on day 5 at lunch. Their score is 5/150. The batsmen currently at the crease include one of its openers and its number 7.
Team B is currently bowling, and has set a target of 250 to win.
No team has any injuries.
You do not have any further information.
I've asked this question to a range of people and have generally received evenly split responses, so curious what CWers think. When I ask for the reasoning behind their answer it tends to bring out different perspectives on how they view test cricket. They apply a range of assumptions based on the info (e.g. what a target of 250 suggests about the pitch, what a set opener in means for a chase etc.) which I've found interesting.
