We’re going to have a harsh winter. Not just because of the cold. We also have Brexit to deal with. Somehow, a bet on a white Christmas won’t distract from this looming disaster. Even putting a bet on Mariah Carey to save us all from Ladbaby won’t cut it. Fortunately, our friends down under are wearing their T20 togs, so we can bet on the Big Bash League. When it’s grey and chilly outside this a great bet on sports in Australia at Bet365 to take your mind off it all.

“It is nice to be hitting the ball well, feeling confident at the crease and having trust in what I do.” Affirms Glenn Maxwell. As Captain of the Melbourne Stars he’s played some useful innings and sees his side leading the table. Sure, it’s still very early doors in a regular season of some 56 matches, but they’ve played well. If they keep it up a bet on the Melbourne Stars might be a good bet on the Big Bash League this year. Certainly, the bookies think so, making them favorites.

At 11/4, however, it is all to play for. Glenn won’t underestimate Mitchell Marsh and the Perth Scorchers, who are right behind them. Those taking advantage of Australian gambling laws will spot the bookies definitely won’t. The lads from Perth garner an entirely creditable 9/2. This possibly makes them the best bet on the Big Bash League 2020. The right mixture of possibility and reward. However, again, do notice, this is still very early on in a long, hard tournament.

Perth And Hobart Chase Down Stars

There is plenty of time for the Sydney Sixers or Melbourne Renegades to catch up and overtake the Stars. This tournament is not short on talent. Sydney have already looked threatening and you have to take a team led by Aaron Finch seriously. Does that mean you should make them your bet on the Big Bash League 2020? Well perhaps, but both sides are loitering around the 6/1 mark. That’s quite some way behind the leaders so early on. The bookies usually have a reason for that.

Even the Hobart Hurricanes get better prices than that. So far, Hobart haven’t fired on all cylinders. However, their potential is so manifest the bookies are taking no chances. Right now you can barely get 4/1 on Hobart right now. Online betting sites in Australia like Bet365 are hedging against those who like to bet on the finalists. Still the Hurricanes are a superb bet on the Big Bash League 2020. They could well turn out to be the thinking fan’s longshot of BBL 2020.

The Brisbane Heat have shown a little spark or two so far and moved up to 8/1. Doesn’t make them a good bet on the Big Bash League 2020, but it’ll encourage them lots. Not entirely sure what would encourage the Adelaide Strikers. Money? Jail time? Who knows? Still you can always bet on T20 cricket to surprise you. Perhaps a bet on Brisbane or a bet on Adelaide will turn out a winner. Adelaide get 9/1. Only the Sydney Thunder get a longer price than that.

Putting a bet on Sydney Thunder is to display more hope than sense. They get 10/1 to win the tournament and, frankly, don’t stand much chance. You’re far better off putting a bet on Perth or Hobart. The Big Bash League 2020 odds at online sportsbook sites in Australia like Bet365 make them the most attractive wagers. A bet on the Hurricanes at 4/1 is about right. So, if you need to distract yourself from the winter woes of Brexit, why not bet on the Big Bash League?
