William Hill issue profit warning following poor start to 2016 http://bit.ly/1MlFsNG 

The firm estimate that if these trends continue online profits will reduce by £20 to £25m in 2016.

Amazing the detail these forecasters can go into, isn't it?

going well in Delhi

run out your best batsman having lost two wickets in the over

bowler broke the stumps early and still had time to pick up the stump with ball in hand

England v afghans tomorrow, I like moeen Ali motm. Hales could miss the game due to a sore back, and one of the re-shuffles possible would see moeen open the batting. This is due to them thinking about playing 3 spinners on a very dry pitch, so either way he'll have a surface that suits. The trends this tournament have been opening batsman or spinners from the winning side getting the award. We could end up having both of those feautures rolled into one bet here. He's 14/1 at badbrokes and bet way, think hills have him as low as 7's. Looks decent value for a speculative tenner. Can't do oddschecker link, on my phone.

Had some small bets on Ali top England scorer 25-1 and top match scorer 50-1 as well as MOM - in retrospect not sure these were great bets. Sweating pretty hard right about now!

I did Ali top England bat when the sea of blue on oddschecker suggested he'd open. Wouldn't have been interested if I knew he'd bat 7. Lucked out a bit with how it turned out, certainly not what I'd expected. Bets certainly live now mind, gl us!

This would be pretty sick, GL both!

Couple of quick wickets now for Ali would be amazing!

lol Moeen got MOTM batting 7

When you are running well lads, you run well!

Ali gets man of match!  Great work!

Haha, theory was he could open and bowl his full compliment of overs. In the end he binks it in batting 7 and only bowling 2 overs, unreal 

[bergeroo]

I'm laughing so much. Both top batsman bets and MOM got there. Gets MOM with a 41 and 1 wicket. Amazing!

  More chance of the dancing than the sandwiches for rabbits.

I played cricket at primary in Bermuda, at college in Coventry & when I was working in Liverpool. Just have never been a fan of anything apart from the long days drinking....

Anand loses to Caruana.

As he's now got worse records in head to head than Caruana and Karjakin, I'd say we are in big trouble now.
