***Official*** West Indies in Bangladesh 2012

Haha weak from Nazimuddin.

Haha weak from Nazimuddin.

his form took a solid dip after Pakistan series

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

odd balls keeping low; this pitch might not play as it looks like

 

[benchmark00]

I find it baffling that channel 9 aren't showing this series.

Why does Naeem Islam bat so low? Chucked a bit of money on him to top score @ 23

 

[NUFAN]

Its been a pretty entertaining morning so far. Windies trying to bounce out the Bang batsman who are going for it and currently hitting heaps of runs from the short stuff.

$23? That's awesome odds, he was only $6.50 on the site I was looking on. I think he'll come in next by the way, batted 4 last test so it would be silly for him to drop down the order after making his maiden century.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

some heat going on between Best and Tamim

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

think Narine bowling from the wrong end

That's good news. Seems like bet365 are going off the cricinfo lineup or something.

edit: yep, and now that he's out in the middle it's gone to $6.50

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

never ending trend for Nafees; get to 20s and back to pavilion

You did well as he is now at $6.50. Even if he doesn't top score, its a very smart bet - I would have probably bet on Tamim, Shakib as bankers and then included Naeem if I knew he was paying $23. I have no funds in my bet365 account.

 

[Flametree]

Can you not sell him at 6.50 and lock in your profit? Or is it not that kind of a bet...

 

[NUFAN]

Bet365 doesn't have lay betting.

Sammy should bring on Permaul instead of Narine.

 

[Daemon]

Yessss.

 

[NUFAN]

Haha. I genuinely hope you win your bet Daemon, really poor market framing from Bet365..

Great ball from Sammy it has to be said.

I got on WI at $1.73 about an over before the wicket, pretty happy with those odds.

 

[Daemon]

Haha I really hope I do too. Have a bit on Shakib @ 6 as well so if he clicks I'll be happy.

I've had a bit of luck in the past with this, remember putting $1-2 on Philander @49 to top score against England and he actually pulled it off, top scoring alongside Duminy. If only I had put in $10 or so but I'll take it

 

[NUFAN]

Nice one.

I'm not the best at tipping team highest scorer. I'm better at predicting the players over/under and team total score. I definitely would have got on Naeem though if my site had him at $23.

Is sports betting popular in Singapore?

 

[Daemon]

It is for soccer and horse racing.

Buying lottery tickets, playing mahjong and poker is a lot more popular here with the slightly older folk though.

 

[NUFAN]

Man I can't stand those on screen displays of the horse numbers moving around all over the place on the racing at Kranji.

Shakib dropped, straight after lunch.
