Australia v South Africa: 1st ODI

Like Australia tonight, but not at $1.41. So.....I'll roll them into tonights A-League shoot-out

 

Australia / o1.5 @ $1.72 (1)

 

Australia / o2.5 @ $2.47 (1)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Good Luck AB.  I'm still uncertain on this match.

 

Australia have never beaten SA in a ODI at the G (5 attempts) and whilst the team is now brimming with confidence I expect SA to bounce back and make this a competitive match.  SA welcome back De Villiers and Kallis for this match.

 

Whilst the SA team seems to lose structure without Smith on the field, I am a little concerned about the Aus bowling attack over 50 overs.  Tait loses effectiveness after a few overs, so IMO Bracken and Hilfenhaus will be important and I'm not that impressed by the bowling of White and / or D Hussey.  Add to that the out of form Marsh and one of Clarke / Pointing / Hussey or Haddin will need to post a large score.  I expect the odds for Australia to come closer to $1.70 throughout the match and in that case think SA at $2.77 poses relatively good value for a small play.  May follow you if I can get Aus at better odds in-play.

Yeah, I heard that stat this morning. Surprised me. I agree that the Saffers at $2.70+ are good odds, I considered putting some of that in a small parlay (@$5ish) but will probably just roll with this.

 

As I stated, I still think Australia should win, but no value at $1.40

NSW as well

Adding:

 

Dale Steyn v Morne Morkel @ $1.87 (1)

 

Dale Steyn v Shaun Tait @ $1.95 (1)

Speaking of dodgy avatars.......daz

Studied and set a business up in Qld, but work brings me to NSW now.  Australia out to $1.55 - not ready to jump on yet
