England vs India First Test - Punters Betting On A Draw

 
With rains lashing down on the city of Chennai, which is the new host to first test match between England and India on Thursday, both the teams had to curtail their practice sessions.
After the weather man predicted more rains over next three days, punters have woken up to the prospect of the match being partly washed away and thus a Draw being the most likely possibility.
 
There is heavy backing for a draw now and drawn result has become the odds on favourite now with UK bookmakers with money still coming in.
"The draw is particularly popular with two bets of £2,000 and India are also well supported, sadly the out of form England are truly friendless," said Hill's spokesman Rupert Adams.
The best odds to back a draw are now available at 28/29 with Betfair.
England seems to be getting even less attention now from the punters and is as big as 12/1 with VC Bet.
Interestingly, India has also drifted now and is availabe for a nice 11/8 at VC Bet and 39/29 at Betfair.
Betting Choice Analysis - It was recommended by us yesterday to back India to win the series instead of the test matches individually to avoid such unforseen situations. We still recommend backing India to win the test series at odds of 8/13 with Betfair. Though if the weather plays good and India gets a chance to bat first to score a big one, it would still be possible for India to take the first test match from England. Hence, some amount of bet can be taken on India to win the first test also at these nice odds.
