WCC Betting Thread

[Simon]

WCC will this season re-introduce betting into the game. No manager will be forced to take part people from outside WCC are also allowed to be involved. The betting aspect of the game will have no bearing on the game or teams themselves, it is just for added enjoyment.

The following betting options will used.
Seasonal prices:
Winners of each division
Highest run scorers in each form
Leading wicket takers in each form

Week by Week prices:
Head to Head on every match
Highest individual score across all matches
Selected matches (possibly two from each round) to have the following betting options:
- Highest scoring batsman
- Batsmen head to head
- Team first innings totals (First class only)
- Team batting first score (One day only)
Other options may be included during the season.
How it will work. Managers will be given an extra $500 every week regardless of their status. E.g everyone starts with $500 and if someone wins $2500 in week 1 then they will have $3000 for week 2. If someone fails to bet for 3 weeks their account will be suspended and no additional money will be given.

Bugs and I will be running this throughout the season, if anyone has any questions us know, again no one will be forced to take part if they'd prefer not to.

Bugs will release the round 1 odds shortly, what happens now is that everyone who wants to participate recieves $500, they can use that to bet on any of the options (multi bets are allowed), each week everyone wiill recieve another $500.

The Minimum bet is $100

 

[chaminda_00]

Interesting Murali basically retired for OD cricket and will probably be only used as an emergency and Ganegama isn't a first choice player in FC and he is favorite for most wickets.

you dont play Ganegama in FC, ur gonna struggle against teams that dont have turning pitches.

 

[NZTailender]

Haha geeze, we're up against it.

 

[chaminda_00]

you dont play Ganegama in FC, ur gonna struggle against teams that dont have turning pitches.

Still hard to get most wickets when you only play away from home. 3rd best FC seamer in the team.

 

[Simon]

fair enough, bugs did those odds so not my fault anyway

 

[Mister Wright]

$200 on Matthew Hayden as FC Div 2 leading run scorer.
