Basically they are saying a "sharp" is someone who will study the line movement and invariably bet against the public money. A square is the opposite, bettor who backs a public play or what seems to be the most obvious one.

Like Ace says it's all bullshit and just another "cool" American gambling term.

I'm going to need Swann to score a 50 to have any chance to win the match performance bet as well

At least he is attempting to play some shots

I ended up taking NZ.....

I initially saw Pakis at $2.00 and saw value.....then after i saw the toss Paki went to $1.75......

Then after Rider got out 1st ball NZ, NZ went to $2.50.........i waited for a few overs then got them at $2.25.........

BOL.......

Pakis are going to find it tough to win at 9.5 runs an over. They have some hitters but are too inexperienced.

Rostos are you watching this on the web. If so where at ?

I was watching it at https://fromsports.com but the channel closed about half way through the NZ innings.

9 runs an over is pretty hard to get in a second innings and Pakis you just never know what you are going to get. Just my thought.
