Punters will also be busy during the series at Centrebet.com. The first Test of the series begins on Wednesday night (Australian time). At Centrebet.com, Australia is listed as a $2.40 favourite to get a 1-0 lead in the five-match series, while England is at $3.90. A draw is heavily favoured at $2.60, not surprising given the fact that heavy rain in England is common.
Cricket fans can also bet on runs scored by each player in the first Test in the pre-determined categories of 0, 1 to 24, 25 to 49, and so on. Young gun Phil Hughes is at $5.50 to score 100 or more in his first innings in a Test in England.
In betting for the series, Australia is priced at $1.71, despite some concerns in the lead-up matches, while the home team is an outsider at $3.30. A draw is a $5.75 chance in the eyes of punters. If you are keen for a bet, Centrebet provides a market for the series score-line. If you think Australia will claim the series 5-0, as it did in 2007, the odds are $13. You can get $9 for a 2-1 England win (the same result as 2005).
