Whose odds are those? Yours or the bookies?

I think you can get $1.60+ about England in the first test, and depending on the weather, I reckon that's okay.

And they should do it more easily final 2 tests with West Indies captain Ramnaresh Sarwan ruled out of the rest of the tour of England after damaging his shoulder in the second Test at Headingley.

Andrew Flintoff is also likely to miss the rest of the series against West Indies after it was decided he should have further ankle surgery.

$2.25 two horse race, in retrospect not bad considering England's up & down form past months. Our mate Pietersen bowled out for 25 from 25 balls..
