Pinnacle never had Cricket until recently and their games and options are very limited. TAB will take potentially millions. I just had a live chat with SportingBet Oz - was told I could bet $1million on the First Ashes Test.

Agree on IPL and any game involving Pakistan! Pretty sure this is why Pinnacle does little to no cricket. 365 has easily most options. Canbet is also a good cricket book.

Why does it matter? You bet $100 a game. Does it matter when you don't even bet much?

It's for knowledge and research pal
Always a bad attitude when people say to me why does it matter
Ask a lot of questions and you will learn a lot

You speak a lot of useless stuff. Have seen your threads. You seem to give out a ton of misinformation as well. Saying things like you can bet 100k a month with arbs easily when there is not possible b/c you will get limited way before that even occurs. And obviously the books you are talking about are those euro books. Quit posting wrong information.

Would depend on the League
I doubt too many books would take mega bets on IPL or anything less than test matches between legit countries.
Outside Asia I would like to think that cricket is no more rigged than NRL/AFL/Rugby or any US sports,
Rigging of games has happened but the real rigging occurs with prop bets within the game.
You can bet on the outcome of every delivery on 365. Imagine if you could bet on the next pitch in baseball being a ball/strike/hit/homer. Pitcher adjusts his laces - and now you have your cue that a ball is coming up.

Cricket is one of my largest portfolios. My average stake is £20k and I could turnover £2-300k per match. There used to be a cricket specific bookie, started in Aus and came to the UK/India, they closed down 6-9 months ago. I'm a small fish in the vast cricket ocean. Don't think people realise just how huge the cricket market is.

You're right. It's utterly massive in India, Pakistan and Sri Lanka with most of their betting done with illegal bookies but those guys bet back into the legitimate outlets.
I doubt too many reading this forum would appreciate just how big a following the sport has. I rarely bet on it these days but for me it's the greatest game ever invented.

Couldn't agree more. Should be a cracking Ashes series!
