ENGLAND V AUSTRALIA 4TH TEST BETTING PREVIEW

Michael Vaughan came very close to winning man of the match at Old Trafford and rewarding those following the Bettingchoice advice with a 20/1 winner to go with the 11/2 for the skipper to be top England batsman. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />A heroic innings by Ricky Ponting to save the Test and quite possibly the series was for the majority of Channel 4 viewers the best performance. So the Ashes rolls onto Trent Bridge with both sides winning one game. Unlike the previous matches where reverse swing was highly prominent, the ground is expected to offer conventional swing and that should be great news for Matthew Hoggard. The Yorkshire bowler has had a quiet series to this point with only the occasional wicket to show for his efforts. However, a noticeable feature about England over the past few years is how the bowling unit have taken it in turn to shine. If Harmison or Flintoff hasn't fired on all cylinders, someone else has stepped up. Over the next days, it wouldn't be a major surprise should Matthew Hoggard be the one to trouble the Australians with his outswing. During his England career, Hoggard has been named man of the match on three occasions with two awards coming in 2005 - at the Wanderers back in January and earlier this summer at the Riverside Stadium.Most firms go 25/1 on Hoggard being named man of the match except for William Hill who offer a stand out 50/1. That looks a massive price considering conditions may turn out to be ideal for the Yorkshire man.
