2013 Ashes Special Bets

After one of the most wonderful weekends in eons for the world of British sport, we are now looking to get underway in the Ashes test series as Australia has travelled to England and look ready to tangle over a tough five matches. England go into this one as the distinct favourites to win with the Australian side effectively being the worst one at this point in decades of International competition.

Those looking for a bit of proof to those allegations need look no further than the Ashes specials section at William Hill and examining the price for both sides to win at least one test. England trade at a microscopic 1/50 while Australia can be backed at a much larger price of 4/9. 

England to retain the Ashes trades at a 1/7 price and that includes a series win or a series draw, as the holding side in a draw always retains the Ashes. 

With England looking likely to take the tournament again this year, a betting market is now available on when, exactly, Australia will regain the Ashes. They will be back in the southern hemisphere this winter for the 2013/14 series and they can be backed at 2/1 to win back the Ashes on home soil. 

You can also lock in a price of 7/2 for Australia to win it in 2017/18 - that would be an extremely long wait for Australian cricket fans and would likely see a good portion of the present side retiring in that period. 

The Oval is favoured to be the highest scoring ground used in the Ashes test series and you can back it at a price of 5/2 while there is an 11/4 listing available on the Lords test being the highest scoring shoot-out. Old Trafford is at 7/2 while Trent Bridge is available at 4/1. Durham can be backed at 9/2.
