Betting massive on it which is hard to believe
so fukkin boring also
Coach, crickt is like nfl. If you've never seen it b4 then you'll have no idea. This test series will be a cracker. Still think australia can win 1st test.
Coach, on wednesday morning around 2am ish take the adelaide strikers ML in T20 cricket cup. . These guys have been untouchable at home
:cheers:
cricket is easy to bet...just need to know the teams inside out...which I do...but most US books dont offer cricket betting :banghead:.
It's even more boring than baseball.
they call a home run a boundary belt. pretty pathetic to know anything about that game, played by english stodgies.
Test cricket is often not the most exciting thingto watch but it is a great sport for betting. There are nearly always angles to exploit in the hundreds of props that are offered.
I won't take lectures from citizens of a country whose favourite TV sports are just advertising opportunities on what constitutes "boring".
test cricket might be boring...but its the purest form of cricket. The old school cricket fans love test cricket. Now its all commercialised form with one days and 20/20.
:lmao:
Hawley couldnt agree with u more.
Remember when 1st started watching NFL, had no idea what was going on. But i persevered and after a couple of seasons can safely say that i know enough to understand the basic mechanics.
Other thing is that learning NFL has given me a appreciation of the game that i wouldnt have had otherwise. You'd be surprised what we can learn with a little perseverance pal....PS GO AUSSIES!!!!
It seems very popular all over world except USA
USA seems to be very closed minded gambling and every other area of life
like Tennis - it can be a game with massive in-play betting swings. A couple of wickets or in T20 low run overs and all of a sudden the odds swing dramatically. I don't bet in-play, but i'd imagine there is a lot of low risk money to be made betting cricket in the run.
If you ever watch a Betfair in-play market you will see that there is nearly always an immediate over-reaction to a wicket falling. If you do nothing else but scalp a few ticks each time you would do fairly well over the course of a match.
For the biggest matches, these markets are quite crowded in terms of the number of traders but for lower profile games it still works very well.
I read your PM btw.
Big difference as far as cricket and tennis is this
Low profile tennis matches at Betfair have potential to get a lot of volume and do if not a lot of matches being played or match is hot
Cricke NO
Only thing i bet in Cricket is sometimes the Under 1.5 run outs. Otherwise nothing. Quite the boring sport.
I am not ashamed to admit I love test cricket. Great game! I went to the Aus/India Test today and will be going again on Day 4. :an_dance:
I bet on Cricket a fair bit, mostly innings totals while in-play, and match outcome. I only bet on test & one day matches. 20/20 is not worth touching at all.
Any sites that have gambling cricket data?
Have you heard of 5ives Cricket?
It has innings rules kinda sorta like baseball. Which apparently makes it more appealing to non-fans (Americans)

I have no clue how it's become better or worse over the years as I didn't grow up with it obviously. But I quite enjoy it now. I like the traditions with it too. How they have drinks and tea breaks and the things people chant in the crowds. I'd definitely take someone for a day out to the MCG if they came to visit. At least you get your money's worth. :lmao:
Cricket= Fun to play, grueling to watch
Cricket is a very simple game and hundreds of millions of its admirers are able to enjoy it because its rules are simple and the fun of the game has been increasing from last 4 decades. Test cricket was not so interesting as the players spent lot of time to settle in the game but the introduction of one day game its popularity as players took less time to settle and started to hit soon. The introduction of T20 format reduced the time of a match to a few hours and the players take not a single minute to settle these days. They start to hit as soon as they come to their side of the crease.
Cricket not entertaining, loved this from yesterdays coverage - http://youtu.be/D04vnWZfQUU
And then ex-player, now commentator Ian Healy tries to take the piss and ends up doing the same today! http://youtu.be/ag_fyvebA1I
Man it's set up for a great finish for you on day 4 Mat!
