Pinny, 5dimes etc are not even chump change compared to the action illegal bookies in India, Pakistan, UAE take, specially India.
Its not uncommon for them to take six figures action but you have to remember its like stock market. A guy would bet -130 for couple hundred thousand then bet the other side +200 to cover losses and if its not going as planned then they don't shy away from firing the other side at - number. And all this is possible is because the vig in these markets is extremely competetive specially when the fav is sliding down.
Its also very common for bookies to go out and bet a side they like to even out the action or even in anticipation of action they might get. And all of this is done based on trust and credit, even overseas action and the settlement is done with a very unique system called 'hawala'.

Correct Information. I am from India. Cricket is most watched , played sport in South Asia. Betting is not legal here therefore we have to take illegal betting route.

You are underestimating Tigers. Uae has more of a shot of upsetting Zimbabwe than afghanis pulling an upset in my opinion. I'm gonna do more research on the game in a few but I really like tigers in this spot.
The only reason they are priced at -350ish is because of their poor warm up games performance.

there price is -350 because this is not the pitch they play on, the kids/men of bengal are used to playing dead pitches in different asian conditions, theres more chance afghans win this than UAE, I respect your opinion but no way zimbabwe lose tomorrow conditions favour them and as they showed vs there neighbors there a good side.

Good luck my friend.

Thanks mate, I know the start is a little crazy I don't recommend tailing all you need to do is slam that South Africa outright they have a very good chance, later on in the tournament we can pick a few solid winners

[sneakerhead]

Good luck ruder, let's see how the match unfolds

[smoke a bowl]

Does anybody here even like/know cricket or are we just interested because there is a lot of money bet on it?

[whitedogau]

I think Afghans have a better chance in this one than the odds indicate. They have 2 good quicks that hit the deck hard and may upset the smaller statured Bangladeshis.
Canberra is a road and as recent results there show, it will come down to who gets the best of the batting conditions.
I think this is closer to a 50/50....going to have a dabble on the underdogs

bengals have the superior experience and talent I like the value but they are heavy favs for a reason, out of the two I give myself a shot with this one.

I took your advice the other day and put a few bucks on SA. Didn't realize the tournament was so long mate.

Great start by Afghanistan, they are bowling very well

[Jackalking]

Got Afghanistan for 3.6. Their bowling unit is looking good.

[sneakerhead]

Bangladesh are just batting scared, gotta rotate the strike or pressure is gonna build up. Well there you go irrational shot and he paid the price

[Mase of Base]

Big wicket, Bangladesh are going super slow.

[Jackalking]

Bangladesh have sent their powerhitting batsman before more established batsman like shakib & rahim. But still they are playing very slow.

[Mase of Base]

Bookies still think Bangladesh are going to do this easily which is surprising.

If Afghanistan could field they'd be looking even better they must of gifted them 10-15 or so.

Live odds are surprising to me. Even if Bangladesh get to 225-250, it still isn't a good enough total for this pitch.
There goes another wicket 119/4. I would hedge my Bangladesh bet if 5dimes offered live betting. Bengalis still -250 wth

[drfunkmaster]

lets go afghanistan!!!

[drfunkmaster]

afghanistan needs to field better..then have given up easily 20

[sneakerhead]

That's just pressure, playing on big stage. Bangladesh will make the same fielding mistakes

[Mase of Base]

Most of it isn't pressure just not enough effort. See that guy dive feet first at the ball! That was pure comedy.

Bangladesh starting to look likely for a decent total now. Death bowling has been the big difference between the minnows and the more accomplished sides so this will an interesting ending.

[drfunkmaster]

wow afghanistan is done after the other bowler got kicked out... for running in danger zone... bengal about to go crazy now, they keep scoring 4s ... ever over we seeing a 4... oh well. it was good for the first 20 overs, after that another story

[drfunkmaster]

bengals on pace to score well over 260 at this rate, was hoping 210,

that slide was all inexperience and pressure lol
its a mix of both.

Shakib needs to stay till the end and Bengalis need to hold wickets.
the spinner shamiulah being taken off was a blow for Afghanistan as well.
Its gonna be a good game nonetheless.

[Mase of Base]

That's two huge referall blunders, didn't help he smoked a six straight after.

[sneakerhead]

Not sure what they are saving the referral for. Afghanistan just losing it at this point, brilliant effort in the first half of the game gojng to waste

[Mase of Base]

I haven't seen this many overthrows in a game since my school playing days. That was a shocking throw to the keeper!

[drfunkmaster]

afghanistan impolded!!!! bengals gonna score 265+ easily...afghanistan wont score more than 230
