T20WC reportA fantastic performance from the West Indies, who bludgeoned their way to 205 with 14 sixes and thrashed Australia to make the final, where they play Sri Lanka on Sunday
That should be a corking final, too close to call though you have to fancy the West Indies with that batting power. Interestingly the WI are odds against, again. Very interesting.
Thread wins £55 from West Indies at 11/8 today which was that rarity, a hedge situation (give the sixes tournament bet threw the only two likely winners together in the semis) that was excellent value inits own right
Thread has to account for the Australia sixes bet as a loser, and should now do the same for the Dilshan sixes bet
That £55 covers those losses, so job done
The final then
Our one outstanding bet sees Malinga with 8 wickets and A Mendis with 11 wickets. Wehave £40 on Malinga as top Sri Lanka wicket taker. Unlikely, especially on these wickets that take some spin, but you never know
Who is your money on the final?

If pressed now I don't think West Indies are odds against, its evens each of two for me
