You can always bet on T20 cricket to provide the odd surprise. Games can turn on a good knock or a spectacular bowling spell. However, we didn’t really bet on the T20 World Cup delivering a seismic shock in the first few days. India, the favorites, got battered by Pakistan of all people in their first game. So if this is how it starts, where does it all end? Online betting sites in the UK like Bet365 have had to adjust their odds on India, and Virat Kohli looks decidedly downbeat.

England had to field a second string side. Five new caps. Stokes as captain. It was all a bit budget. However, their complete domination of Pakistan in the ODI series shows just how good England are at white-ball cricket now. They evidently have a depth of squad to envy. So, whilst the odds on India are shorter at online sportsbook sites in the UK like Bet365, England are perhaps the better wager. They’re a 4/1 bet on the T20 World Cup and those prices are worth snapping up.

Nich Moore July 22, 2020 12:55:52

After the disappointing result in the 1st Test the 2nd proved England can still play cricket. With the return of Joe Root, the team put on a great performance and found the West Indies wanting.

Those who took advantage of UK gambling laws to pick up the long odds being offered on the West Indies before the 1st Test will be laughing now.

Nich Moore July 14, 2020 16:52:55

In the aftermath of their defeat in Southampton England face an uphill struggle to save the series. The West Indies are a far better side than Ben Stokes seemed to believe. Likewise, the bookies odds on the West Indies last time round were a bit parsimonious. This time the 2nd Test odds on England are more realistic. Even if their chances aren’t. Online sportsbook sites in the UK give the hosts 2/5 and the tourists 7/2 right now. Question is; Has this series already slipped out of grasp?

First Test Odds On England Tempt Fate A Little Too Much

Nich Moore June 18, 2020 12:59:23

They’re heavily favored to win. Which only makes it more likely they’ll lose. England return to Test cricket with a series against the visiting West Indies. The three games will be played under extraordinary circumstances but will the cricket match them? Normally the first Test odds on England would suggest not. However, “normal” doesn’t really apply right now. This won’t be like any other series. So, taking advantage of UK gambling laws to back England could be an error.

The England West Indies 2020 Test series odds are, by and large, what you’d expect. Online betting sites in the UK, like Bet365, giving the hosts quite the edge.

Sorry Joe, The Odds On England To Win The Ashes Stay Long

Nich Moore January 29, 2020 19:03:03

You have to be an optimist to be captain of the England Cricket team. Joe Root is no exception. Having won the fourth test and got a 3-1 series win he bubbled with praise, hopes, and dreams. However, the odds on England to win the Ashes demonstrate he is a slightly rose-tinted view of the future. Bookies like Bet365, one of the biggest online betting sites in the UK, give them barely 3/1. Apparently beating South Africa doesn’t mean you can take on the Aussies at home.
