They have just about any sport and league you can think of, but they don't have lines on a sport watched and enjoyed by billions, with plenty of betting options?

maybe its easy to fix, maybe they are forbidden to do so because the cricket gambling can only occur at certain books, say in china or whatever, there has to be a very good reason whyComment -
It is rather odd really considering they do offer lines on squash matches.Comment -
There have been some match fixing allegations in the past, but probably no more than boxing, NBA or NCAAB. And no, there aren't restrictions on it in terms of countries. You see books like Greek, Bodog, SIA and Bookmaker offering lines as well as Euro and Aussie books/markets like Betfair, Will Hill, Centrebet and many others.maybe its easy to fix, maybe they are forbidden to do so because the cricket gambling can only occur at certain books, say in china or whatever, there has to be a very good reason whyComment -
They just haven't met that special someone yet to settle down with.Comment -
The only market worth persuing goes through Mumbai, and that's one heavilly rooted in the local culture. Being cut off from direct access to the money their only option would be to deal with the middle man, and that's one place where they will get out positioned most often then not.Comment -
Have any good cricket capping sites donjuan? Always interested in new profitable sports.Comment -
I don't handicap cricket or know anyone who does, I was just curious. I'm kind of getting into it, or at least the idea of sitting in the sun getting drunk while passingly watching it.Comment -
English, Saffers and Aussies not worth pursuing but Russian futsal bettors are?The only market worth persuing goes through Mumbai, and that's one heavilly rooted in the local culture.

In order for it to be a worthy endeavor it would have to project growth. None of the cricket nations can produce enough volume except for one. Cricket betting in India has been huge the past 30 years, they control the world of it even if it's hard for some to believe it, and incredibly it's only a small circle that controls the totality of it. Tight knit sharp money would outweight square money (India v rest) far more that even if they come away with prime leans at the end of a contest they would end up handing the bag.
Russian futsal- open money outweights the sharp, and they get the info relatively cheap.Comment -
Maledetto,
Then what's with all of these other sites offering cricket lines (Greek, Bodog, SIA, every UK book)? For clarification, I am talking only about international cricket (tests and ODIs) and not IPL or other domestic stuff.Comment -
Their model has never been simply to book it like those guys, they always been +EV bettors.Comment -
$7.1M+ matched on Betfair for NZ vs. England 1X2 with 6 hours left until first pitch. Small potatoes right?Comment -
6 hours left until "first pitch" on day 3 (of 5), but agree it's not small potatoes.Comment -
No, just "start of play"Comment
