CHAMPIONS LEAGUE TWENTY20 NEW SOUTH WALES VS EAGLES BETTING TIPS
New South Wales are set to take on Eagles in the 2nd fixture of the Champions League Twenty20 and bookmakers Blue Square have listed them as odds-on favourites to take the win. Currently available at 1/2, New South Wales boast a test-quality bowling attack with the likes of Brett Lee, Nathan Hauritz, Doug Bollinger and Stuart Clark all available to the team. They won the 2008/9 Big Bash and are among the favourites to win the competition outright. Eagles are a bit of a of a different story, as the runners up in the Standard Bank Pro 2008/9 they don't really boast any big names but are an effective and talented side. You get the feeling that this fixture might just be too big of a step up for them, but their 13/8 odds indicate that they have a very real possibility of winning the match. If they are to pull it off, Morne van Wyk is expected to be the leading batsman and he's 10/3 to top their runscoring list. Boeta Dippenaar is 4/1 while Rilee Rossouw is 9/2. Dean Elgar is 5/1 while Adrian McLaren carries an 11/2 price. Phil Hughes is favoured to get the job done for New South Wales and he joins David Warner at 3/1. Simon Katich is at 4/1 while Dominic Thornely is at 6/1. These are the only real plausible candidates in my opinion. NSW are odds-on to score the most sixes and they're also 8/11 to have the highest opening partnership. If you think somebody in the match is going to get beyond 50, you can back that at 10/11 for the highest individual total to be between 50-74. 75-99 pays out at 4/1 while a century or better pays a whopping 12/1. The top match runscorer is favoured to be with New South Wales and they've got a 4/6 price to do so.
