Tips for Tikay

That cycling post is incred. Had a little nibble.

Over £7m traded at 1.05 or less on South Africa at the T20 World Cup but the Dutch are now 4/1 to cause a huge upset after restricting South Africa to 145

Can't exactly imagine Steyn going round the park tho can we

Think 1/4 is pretty decent myself but I love a short one

[TightEnd]

6/4 SA in running now ahead of Tahir coming on will do me

Next Portsmouth manager market now out

Andy Awford 7/4 Glen Hoddle 7/1 Neil Warnock 15/2

not a clue, but marky147 can enjoy

They're off in the Volta a Catalunya, and the first breakaway has already been formed.

The bad news is that our man is not in it. The good news is that they are only 20sec in front.
Bad news is it contains Plaza, De Gendt, Clement and Mederel ... a few decent climbers in there. Good news is that Mederel is only 1:44 behind Contador, and shouldn't be allowed to escape. Clement only 3:07 behind.

Conclusion ... our man is saving his legs for an escape that will be allowed to get away. I hope.

Next Portsmouth manager market now out

Andy Awford 7/4 Glen Hoddle 7/1 Neil Warnock 15/2

not a clue, but marky147 can enjoy

If Forest can't tempt Warnock out of Cornwall/retirement then I doubt Pompey can! 15/2 seems way too short.

However, I've never ever been right about a next manager market so you can all obv now lump Warnock

[cheapwetsuit]

The breakaway now has a gap of 1:25, so things aren't looking good for Mr. Marczynski. However, the bet is still alive even though the theory behind it is dead in the water.

strong hunch in the second game

9 wickets in the dutch game to spin, 5 to malik, 4 to tahir.

sri lanka have 3 better spinners than those 2.

england's top 4 suspect against spin, and teams bowl spin against england early

http://www.oddschecker.com/cricket/t20-world-cup/england-v-sri-lanka/top-sri-lanka-bowler

waiting on the team news

ajantha mendis is the spinner england know well. herath as well

but the unknown quantity is sachitra senanayake, an offie who spins it, has a wrong 'un and England haven't faced before

available at 4-1, has bowled first change for Sri Lanka so far this tournament 

the leading wicket taker in the SLPL, signed up this year for big money into the IPL

Has a strike rate of a wicket every 14 balls in 12 International T20s. repeat that and he'll be in the hunt here,  a strike rate of 16 in 55 career T20s, and over 70 wickets

http://www.espncricinfo.com/srilanka/content/player/273439.html

England have never faced him.  cf Badree, Santokie recently

think he should give you a run for it.

[horseplayer]

The ball did not spin though did it? Tahir said as much on interview

He did though say it spins loads at night and not at all during the day which is a plus for the bets above

[Dubai]

The 4/6 SL looks pretty fair to me, we are a shambles and have at least 3 players who shouldn't be anywhere near the international stage, we struggle so badly in the middle overs that it's well worth going in again if we make a good start when batting as well

[DungBeetle]

Hard to argue with 4/6 on SL isn't it?

[Dubai]

Broad says England got a strong bowling lineup. Can only assume Malinga has found an English passport in his drawer

[TightEnd]

It's hard to back Eng. SL are a gun team, Eng have no spin, not enough death bowling and not enough batsmen who clear the ropes

Come on England, except for the thread!

[gherkin]

What on earth is going on.  2 laughable umpiring decisions and (even more shocking) Dernbach isn't bowling completely shit
