A pretty simple day and no need to say much. Laid 1.3 for a completed match between England and the West Indies looking at it raining this morning. And backed Delhi to win after Mumbai posted a par score on a good pitch. Didnt get involved in the second game as it looked pretty even all the way and I had my William Hill bet running which thankfully came in with a few overs to spare while Deccan were in full collapse mode again, they really are the collapse kings of the IPL, you cant trust them at all once the openers go. The bet just sneeked over the line after Bangalore put 20 on, Deccan only added 15 chasing so it was close enough in the end, not the certainty it looked away. But I will be looking to do it again in the semi final thats here if its the same price, depending on the teams of course, I dont know which game is at Centurion but one of the semi's is there. Just something to keep in mind, the par score there is 170, very different from the other pitches.
