Latest Ashes Betting Update PT 2
- By A.J. Ryder on November 27, 2017 02:31 GMTWhile it will certainly depend on the quality of the bowling and the line-ups that are on display - you can expect Australia will remain relatively unchanged while England will probably make a few adjustments. This will be especially pertinent to do that with the lower and middle order in particular.
The bookmakers still seem to be fairly sure that England are likely to pull off at least one test victory while they are in Australia - a place where they have struggled to win at many times over the years. We all remember the past few series whitewashes when England were in Australia and you can assume there are more than a few punters who have been following both countries for quite some time having some serious flashbacks.
As it currently stands, you’ll find that England are trading at a 4/9 price tag to win at least one test while they are 13/8 to finish without a victory for the entirety of the Ashes series.
Steve Smith remains to be the main Australian batter and he’s listed as low as a 4/9 price to be named the top Australian batsman of the Ashes series - you’d have to reckon he’s right on schedule to do so.
Joe Root appears to be the big hope for England and he’s available at a 7/4 price tag right now to finish as the top English batsman. Stuart Broad is considered to be the top contender for English bowler with the best price hovering around a 7/4 margin while James Anderson is best priced at 9/4 right now with several top bookmakers.
Mitchel Starc is available as the top Aussie bowler and you’ll find him as low as a 6/4 price and facing some pressure from the likes of Nathan Lyons with a solid 3/1 listing right now.
