*Official* Sri Lanka in Australia 2010

[irottev]

I like the slip. They need wickets to win. No use having run savers.

 

[Matt79]

Better now than in five overs I suppose.

Edit: and wide.

 

[Prince EWS]

I thought my bet was gone!

I now win $61.16 on Sri Lanka, and break even on Australia.

All thanks to Malinga and Mathews! Thought my money was down the drain!

How you lookng Prince? Hedged?

I get $310 if Sri Lanka win (win $270 profit) and nothing if Australia win. Never ending up hedging that first bet because Sri Lanka never got into decent favouritism and then had $10 on Sri Lanka at 25s. Should probably hedge that now, but it's so tempting to just ride it.

 

[Burgey]

It looked like Clarke signalled something to Smith about bowling and made some signal about his back. Anyone know if Smith has an injury at all?

Ooooh... Nearly a catch at cover. Sri Lanka should walk this now.

 

[Matt79]

Has Midge got the bogan sleeve tattoo now?

 

[Prince EWS]

Johnson already bowled too many overs in his first two spells; why bring the **** back on now? FFS.

 

[irottev]

Johnson bowling pies. I agree with Ritchie, where the hell is Smith? Is he injured? I can't understand why he's not been bowling. He bowled 3 overs at the cheapest economy....

 

[Prince EWS]

Have officially hedged FTR; get my money back if Australia win.

 

[robelinda]

Christ what a six.

 

[irottev]

SIX!!!! Holy ****. What a game. Matthews WAG

 

[Top_Cat]

Dude has liquid nitrogen in his veins!

 

[Matt79]

**** me. Get the quicks off. Watson and Clarke/Smith from hereon please.

 

[Ruckus]

Will the pendulum swing towards Australia?

 

[Jono]

Have officially hedged FTR; get my money back if Australia win.

I'm the same. What's your profit if SL get up?

 

[irottev]

Wicket now please. Wanna make it exciting. SL should piss in from here.

 

[social]

Matthews has played beautifully but any team that gets hit around by a complete bunny like Malinga deserves to lose

Siddle and Johnson have bowled absolute rubbish today - quick but rubbish

 

[vcs]

16 required. Malinga will be wrongly given LBW to Siddle with 11 to win and SL will get four overthrows from a wayward throw by Starc after that. It's just meant to be.

 

[Prince EWS]

I'm the same. What's your profit if SL get up?

$250 I'm pretty sure.

Had $30 on Sri Lanka at 2.00
Had $10 on Sri Lanka at 25.00
Had $20 on Australia at 3.02

So yeah, $250. Or 40c if Australia win.


Betting at such even numbers makes it pretty easy to work out.

 

[Nate]

I miss line and length bowlers. Haven't enjoyed the captaincy tonight.

EDIT: Well played Lasith!

 

[Jono]

Cool.

Get on Betfair man, it calculates all this **** for you.
