Couple of bets I like at prices in the upcoming Champions League T20.
Perth @ 20/1
Lahore @ 40/1
Format is as follows:
There is a qualifying group of Lahore, Mumbai, Northern Districts (nz) and southern express (sl). Top 2 qualify for the main group.
Top 4 in the main group go through to semis.
Perth have a very decent team and have not been hit by any of the IPL teams nicking their players. They have very good death bowlers in Coulter Nile and Yaser Arafat, Mitch Marsh is on fire with the bat and the ever reliable Voges give them a decent base with the bat.
At the price I think they are deffo worth a bet, outside of the IPL teams I made them 5th favs.
Lahore I'm surprised to see that big, there was a doubt whether they would participate as it looked like they visas were gonna get refused. (India/Pakistan politics diplomatic as ever)
Anyway they are deffo playing, half the team play for Pakistan, Hafeez, Shehzad, Jamshed, Umar Akmal and Riaz. They have players who will know the conditions, the younger guys not having the experience of such a big tournament is always a gamble. Anyway at the price I feel its a bet.
I know Fred can't get on with some firms, so I'll leave it to you Tighty if you wanna take a worse price on them.
