January 4th – Australia vs Pakistan
I have been watching the odds in the Australia vs Pakistan game with great interest and am amazed that the odds for Pakistan has barely changed from the opening ball today even though they have batted themselves into a strong position leading by 60 at tea on day 2 of the 2nd test. With 8 wickets in hand and some aggressive batters to come, it is hard to see how they won’t be 150 in front at the end of the day and could well bat Australia out of the game by the time they have finished. Pakistan has been streaky today and Australia have missed some opportunities but the runs are on the board now. If you add that plus the fact the pitch is getting slightly better (but still doing some tricks) just leads me to believe that the Aussies will have to be super aggressive to have a chance to win this game. As far as I’m concerned the $1.50 about Pakistan is a steal when you consider their talented bowling line-up which features some good seam bowlers and one of the world’s best spinners in Danish Kaneria who will be licking his lips watching Hauritz spinning it sideways already.
The weather report says fine conditions for the rest of the test so we shouldn’t get beaten by the rain this time round.
Our Bet is:
PAKISTAN to beat Australia in the 2nd test at $1.50 on Betfair (Sports Managed Fund 10% Bet)
