I had some great luck with this game. I was looking to back both teams, during the day before the match the odds i could use were giving a 33% return. With Warne out and bad odds i was going to leave it. Then with around a hour till play the odds were on the move and a 45% return was on the cards. I had to go to the TAB shop to put my bet on, gave my tickets to the ticket lady and with 20 mins left OPTION CLOSED. She rang head office and they said it had been closed early because of rain. I had checked the forecast on BBC and it was showing nothing but sun shine and 35 degrees so i thought it was just an excuse. The ticket lady also said she had just served a guy who put 12k on the same play.
I could make the play now and get a 70% return. 11 overs gone india are 22/2 they may fall over again. I would need the draw to be at +$2.50 to bail out.
