Tips for Tikay

Any Budget Buzzword Bingo for tomorrow?

And are we loading up on Chris Ferguson to win the Main Event with Ladbrokes? How much do you reckon they'll lay at 250/1?

[MereNovice]

I have spent hours, perhaps days, on a deep analysis of the upcoming Test series between Australia and England and have come up with a winner.

Stan James are 21/20 for Australia to win the toss (as part of a promotion).

Ladbrokes are evens each team.


Obviously I'm not a professional gambler so my opinion isn't worth much with some people but I believe that the percentages for winning the toss are as follows:

Australia  50%
England  50%


Edit: I'm aware that TfT cannot bet with Stan James. Merely posted for general information.

Australia have won the last 5 tosses so this obviously changes the odds imo

Oooooooooh, excellent point.

Are England "due" or do Australia have a genuine edge?

I should have done more research.

[stumpythefish]

Australia have the edge always go for the smaller captain when tossing

No, no, no.

You haven't taken home field advantage into consideration:

OK, you've convinced me.
I'm re-mortgaging the house and sticking it on the man in the green baggy.
I should be able to raise £10 which elevates me to "pro" status, I think.

Wish me luck.

no bets completed yesterday

Djokovic our big Wmbldeon mens bet at 2-1 is into 11-10 generally after beating Anderson in five sets. He plays against Cilic in the quarters today



in cricket warwickshire are right up against it against Yrkshire. Needing over 400 in 110 overs to win they lost a wicket early, captain chopra getting a pair, and ended the third day 43-1 really needing a draw minimum to stay in touch. More of this from Trott, hopefully



Middlesex are also looking to secure a draw on the final day as under sunny skies a now flat pitch enabled Notts to score 419 in their innigns with a chris read 100

More rain in Manchester and Lancs are 257-5 after two days againat Esserx

Derbyshire are 122-2 replying to Gamorgan's 400+ at Chesterfield

For the cyclist team, how relevant is Sky being this far behind at this stage to the bet? What odds u make them now?
