Default CRICKET 'THE ASHES' Australia v England - First Test

AUSTRALIA 1.47
DRAW 4.00
ENGLAND 7.00

Am I the only one here who think the Aussies are a certainty? Surely Australia will win. I think they will win the series 3-0

Im thinking about investing a grand on the Aussies to win $470 on this match. Yeah, its a big bet for me...

Anyone thinking different?

Hi dc you would think the Aus are a certainty, but you never now, it could rain (it would have to rain for three days)

Aus are paying 1.58 on betfair

cheers

Thanks for the big tip DC, not sure id be taken too much 1.47 on aything.

Im sure if you follow in play you will get more than 1.47 during the match.

Might wait for Mack to post his play in the special cricket betting forum, fom what Ive seen, he reads a days play better than anyone Ive seen, just need to make some money out of it.

As for the 3-0 result, will need some rain for that to occur. Can maybe see a draw in Perth, but doubtful elsewhere unless the drought breaks.

Cheers

Quickdraw

Well that was easy money.... yeah did worry about rain a little but the odds were big if that was to happen... i thought they should of been like 1.05 for australia.... so i thought 1.47 was good because i really felt they'd win. if i was on bet fair... a 1.58 is generous.

I put them in heaps of multis to take out the series, got em for 1.32... now they are like 1.15.




go aussies...! you guns!

Hope for your sake that you didn't back up in the 2nd test.

They may well end up winning this series, but I still think the Australians are incredibly over-rated in the betting markets. As soon as England won the toss yesterday, I quickly jumped on and backed both England and the draw at exactly the same odds as you've shown there ($7.00 & $4.00). I'm fairly confident about collecting right now. From the way they were talking pre-test, I think England will be determined to bat on as long as possible and play Australia right out of the game, just as we did in the first test.

Stayed out of this match as adelaide oval is a 5 cent coin, batting wicket.. Thought this game would be decided on the toss...
if you got $ 4.00 for the draw thats nice... I just put Australia in a multi but its looking like thats dead.. I still have the feeling that England wont win a game....
Think the aussie price fits the bill on paper.

Okay, what the hell's going on??? Surely England couldn't actually lose this test after scoring 6-551 dec!!!

This morning, being the incredibly cautious "always take a saver" type punter that I am, I actually decided to cover myself by throwing a small bet on Australia at $13, just in case there happened to be a HUGE English batting collapse. But I have to say that I never actually expected it to happen!!!

The draw is still a big chance if Harmison and Anderson can stay in with Collingwood for long enough, but if any big professional punters jumped on at the price of $1.01 this morning, then they're probably just a bit nervous right now.

England could still win this. If Australia keep playing reckless one-day type shots and get themselves out (like Langer just did), they could collapse in a heap.
