Also, may as well put this here rather than on its own thread, but had a tip for Pragyan Ojha to be top wicket taker in the IPL. He was leading wicket taker 2 years ago, but fell away last year as he only played 10 of 14 matches. However, this season he's moved teams and gone to Mumbai and should be back to being first-choice again.
He's currently 20/1 with Sky and 22 with Stan James but the first game starts in 20 minutes so markets will get taken down.
watched him a lot last year for Surrey. Great spinner. that was a good price I missed ^
He's going to have to compete with a stronger bowling attack (particularly Malinga) for his wickets but it still seems a nice price.
Having thought about this, it's utter bollux really.
Malinga bowling tightly at the top of the innings should increase Ojha's chances of taking wickets as opposition batsmen try to pick up the tempo. Also, Malinga will almost certainly bowl two overs at the end when Ojha has already completed his spell.
The bet looks even better to me now.
