Let's move on LOL
Australia vs Pakistan who is going to win?

I pick Australia however Pakistan started well. They won the toss an elected to bat first. So far scored 28 without no lose after 6 overs.

They lost their 4th wicket. Shoaib Malik gone after hitting two constitutive boundaries. 194 for 4 right now. Yes, Pakistan is still looking good. They are capable to score quick runs so I think they will easily score over 270 runs.

If they can do then this will be a very good total for them to defend.

You are right. Team like Australia don't give up easily. Even if the target is over 400 runs they go after it. But Pakistan has good bowling side. So it will be interesting to see the match.

Saying is easy but risking money is something else ;-P

Pakistan had good bowling attack. It's proven by history and in-fact this team has some very good blowers. I don't know the new guy who is 18. I think he is playing today. He can make a difference.

Edit: It's Mohammad Hasnain. I checked and he is not playing. I thought they took him for this series?

I didn't watch the Pakistan innings. Congrats to Haris Sohail, I never thought Pakistan will be able to score 280 against Australia although they are going to lose the match. Finch is on attack and scored 85. Easy win for Australia unless miracle happen.

Aussies are going to have an easy win I can see. 242 and only lost 2 wickets. 8 wickets in hand and they need 39 runs from 37 balls. The job is very easy for them.

Good thing that Pakistan scored but it was not enough.

After watching first match I can say Australian can win this series by 5 - 0 or 4 - 1 because after beating India in India they are full of energy and high in confidence Pakistan is not good enough to give any resistance very poor in bowling.

True, suddenly this Australian team looking all charged up and each and every player is in form and more waiting on line to get their hands to get dirty and keep in mind Mitchell Starc is not in time atm.

I don't think Pakistan would win the match yesterday even if they scored 350+ runs. The run chase looked too easy for Aussies. I tell you what, in this series earning from betting will be easy.

Take yesterday's match as example. Before match the odd for Australia was 1.86 or something. When the game was in progress and Pakistan were batting well the odd was even 2.68 for Australia. I was able to pick the odd when it was 2.30 or something. I did not see the final odd after the Pakistan innings but I am sure the odd might cross 3+ for Australia.

So, here is what my strategy I will follow in this series...
It's obvious that Pakistan will lose the matches (may be one win).

- I will bet some (if the odd is good) before the match starts for Aussies just to make sure that when the game starts and Aussies do well then I do not lose the initial odd.

- I will wait to see Pakistan is doing well. The odd goes up for Aussies. When I find a better odd in play then I risk more for Aussies.

I will see how it goes :-P

The current New Zealand team is a strong team and their captain is one of the smartest captain in recent cricketing teams. If Dhoni, Steve Waugh, Arjuna Ranatunga were/are cool headed smart captains then Kane Williamson is one of them (It's my opinion by the way). So in this world cup New Zealand is not a Dark Horse or Underdog. They are as favourite as India or Australia. May be the history is not with them that is why we are not highlighting them much.


Australia had their best team when Steve Waugh and Pointing was their captain.
