Ind v Aus

[another grub]

Anyone see any value... 1st test

Im going on the theory that Aus dont play in to many draws and am going to lay it....

Draw $2.25
India $3.00
Australia $3.20

[Johno37]

what does "lay" it mean....

im gonna put 100 on aus

[Q.]

I like the draw as I don't think the Aussies are highly capable of taking twenty wickets. Is their batting susceptible too? Haven't looked great in tour matches so far, so I reckon an India win is even better value. Would hate to bet against the Aussies though.

Lay means bet against the Draw happening (on Betfair)

India look value to me

[Johno37]

ah ok.. it all makes sense now.
india will be very hard to beat at home.. but i just cant bet against the aussies.... cant bring myself to do it!

we got problems if white is our number 1 spinner to

[The Dutchman]

Hate to say it, but India in less than 4.5 days IMO...

[BIG SEXY]

india for mine too. even though the pitch looks quick and bouncy i reckon india will be able to knock off the aussies. as much as it pains me to say it. i have money on india first test $3.25 and india series $2.50

[Zelezny Chucks]

I don't think we have the bowling attack to knock them off over there. Draw would be a good result for us I think.

Link above will take you straight to the Betfair market now and during the match.

Reckon Im with AG and going to lay the draw, this pitch seems to have some pace and bounce, lay around $2.34 and then once a few wickets fall you can trade off for a profit

[Johno37]

so does that mean u can put money on it not being a draw... but u dont have to pick the winner sorta thing?

[Mr_Willy]

Correct

[Ducks Guts]

Turn it up you lot, I cant believe im reading this rubbish the Ozzies will spiflicate the Indians and anything over $2.00 is a steal especially on that pitch Brett Lee will carve them up in what will only be described as a legalised massacre.

Yep, you are a bookie in essence, say someone wants to back the Draw at $2.36 for $100-, I take the bet and risk losing $136- to win $100- (less BF commision) BF is not a bookie, just people matching bets hence the odds are great

Im going to trade this test match (like the stockmarket), Ill post my bets here to demonstrate

You've forgotten one very important ingredient in the mix gutsy.
Greg Chappell.....everything he touches turns to shit.
Get on India in everything until the vegan returns home to pollute our young elite in 7 weeks time.
India @ 2/1 is a steal.

Aussies don't seem to be making waves with their form as much as Clarke is on the toilet bowl at the moment ...

[bayman]

i've got a better bet than that for you, pontings record in india is ordinary (i know he is determined to rectify it) on the tab with the 'over & under' bet it is 43.5 runs i've backed under & believe this is a great bet, as for the test series/match itself just remember boys that we have an appalling record over there & this isn't as good an australian side that has played there in the past

[another grub]

looks like we are all pretty divided on the result..... going to stick to my draw lay...... and maybe layoff during event....
