Australia To Put An End To England's Hopes?

Following their disappointing loss to Sri Lanka, England are now 25/1 outsiders to win the World Cup with Hills who rate England at 1/16 to fail to reach the semi finals and 7/1 to do so. Sunday's match against Australia is now a must-win match with England offered at 12/5 and Australia the 3/10 favourites. England will need their Captain, Michael Vaughan, to get his scoring boots on and he is offered at 7/4 to score more runs than his opposite number Ricky Ponting who is 2/5. In-form Mathew Hayden will be the key wicket for England and Hills rate him at 5/6 to score 38 or less runs and 5/6 to score 39 or more."When you are on the ropes the last thing you want is to be facing Australia in a must win game and the odds suggest that Australia will put the final nails in England's World Cup coffin," said Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.Outright: 3/10 Australia, 12/5 EnglandMathew Hayden runs: 5/6 38 runs or less, 5/6 39 or moreMichael Vaughan vs Ricky Ponting runs: 2/5 Ponting, 7/4 VaughanTop Match Wicket Taker: 4/1 G McGrath, 9/2 B Hogg, 5/1 S Tait, 5/1 N Bracken, 6/1 A Flintoff, 7/1 J Anderson, 8/1 M Panesar, 10/1 S Mahmood, 12/1 P Collingwood, 14/1 A Symonds.William Hill World Cup Latest Odds: 11/10 Australia, 7/2 New Zealand, 7/2 Sri Lanka, 4/1 South Africa, 25/1 England, 50/1 West Indies; 250/1 Bangladesh, 750/1 Ireland.Hill's now rate England at 7/1 to qualify for the semi finals and 1/16 to fail to do.
