kevshat Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 One pick from Tuesday's matches for me, I think Derbyshire will win the other game starting Tuesday but they're a bit short for me. Will await team news before deciding on any plays on Wednesday. EventLancashire vs Sussex SelectionLancashire Strength10/10 Date09/06/2006 Bookmaker/Pricetotesport @ 1.83 (Back) ReasoningSussex go to Lancashire without star bowler Rana Naved who is out with injury, and without batsman Michael Yardy. Lancashire welcome back Sajid Mahmood from England duty and are at full strength. The loss of Naved could be crucial here because Sussex are top of the league, based mainly on their bowling, as their attack have earned them 17 bonus points (compared to Lancashire's 15) whereas their batsmen have only added 12 bonus points. With home advantage and a full squad to counter the injury hit Sussex squad I'm going for a home win here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidmphill Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 Good luck Kev, i've gone for Derbys to beat a struggling Glamorgan side this week. Somerset's victory over them last week must have knocked the stuffing out of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevshat Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 Cheers mate, they've started well and as I type Sussex are struggling at 188/7. I fancied Derby but they've not won a home Championship game for almost 3 years which sort of put me off at such short odds but at 201/3 they seem to be going ok today.

kevshat Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 At this point, this thread may need renaming to the Hampshire thread, I've got so many bets for our match! The game is on Sky and I'm all over it. I've been exploring Expekt and their batsmen match bets are appalling :rollin . So I've duly had a piece of a few of them! Here's my bets for the Wednesday start matches. EventHampshire vs Nottinghamshire SelectionHampshire (Not DNB) Strength10/10 Date10/06/2006 Bookmaker/PriceSportingodds @ 2.05 (Back) ReasoningBeing a Hampshire fan, I'm very reluctant to bet on Hampshire, particularly these days when I think we are often overrated but here I make an exception. I must state that I am betting here with the draw included. I don't think the draw will come into play though, there's no rain forecasted and generally matches at the Rose Bowl don't last 4 days. The reason I'm so strong on Hampshire is mainly the history of last year and the way the Championship was settled, there was a lot of uproar from Hampshire and I'm sure they'll be up for this match. Last time the 2 sides met at the Rose Bowl, which was the last game of last season, Hampshire batted 1st and made 714/5 dec and Notts were bowled out for 213 & 313 to lose by an innings and 188 runs. This season Hampshire, who are at full strength for this game apart from Chris Tremlett, lie 2nd whereas Notts come into the game 8th and without a Championship win all season. With the grudge that Hampshire hold on Notts, the near fully fit squad, form, and home advantage all on Hampshire's side I'm taking the Hawks to win this. EventHampshire vs Nottinghamshire SelectionJ.Adams to beat G,Lamb Strength10/10 Date10/06/2006 Bookmaker/PriceExpekt @ 1.85 (Back) ReasoningSometimes match bets just jump out at you and here is definitely one. James Adams, fresh off the back of a matchwinning 166* against Yorkshire last week, is Hampshire's 2nd top scorer this season and is up against Greg Lamb who has only started twice this season. Lamb is a capable batsman but bats down the order which restricts his impact in the side whereas Adams opens the batting and is growing in the role. I think Adams would win this bet 8 times out of 10 so I have to be on this. EventHampshire vs Nottinghamshire SelectionM.Carberry to beat N.Pothas Strength10/10 Date10/06/2006 Bookmaker/PriceExpekt @ 1.87 (Back) ReasoningAnother match bet I feel Expekt have priced up all wrong. Michael Carberry is an opener and Pothas, a wicket keeper bats at 6 or 7. In the last 3 Championship matches Carberry has beaten Pothas in 5 of the 6 innings and given their respective places in the batting lineup he has to be backed to continue that trend here.EventHampshire vs Nottinghamshire SelectionJ.Crawley to beat D.Thornely Strength10/10 Date10/06/2006 Bookmaker/Price>Bet365 @ 1.83 (Back) ReasoningThis time it's bet365 who have a match-up out of line. In the last 3 CHampionship matches, Crawley has outscored Thornely in the 1st innings which is the innings that applies to this bet and over the 6 innings he out averages Thornely 49.16 to 43.83. Also in this fixture last season Crawley hit 313 not out so with the facts and stats on Crawley's side he's another I'm taking a punt on. EventSomerset vs Worcestershire SelectionC.White to beat W.Durston Strength10/10 Date10/06/2006 Bookmaker/PriceExpekt @ 1.75 (Back) ReasoningLooking back at the last 3 Somerset Championship matches, in the 1st innings Cameron White has outscored Durston on each occasion. If that wasn't enough, White comes into this match on the back of an unbeaten century in the 1-day match against Glamorgan at the weekend. Cameron White often bats at 3 with Durston much lower down the order and all things considered, this looks a good bet too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postman Pat Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 Tip Detail SportCricket EventHampshire v Nottinghamshire SelectionHampshire (DNB) Strength10/10 Date10/06/2006 Bookmaker/PriceSportingodds @ 2.05 (Back) ReasoningCounty Championship D1, Rose Bowl, Match starts 1100 BST Wednesday. Hampshire must be full of confidence after chasing down a big total against Yorkshire in their last match. They also welcome back all rounder Shaun Ervine to the side which is a bonus because at times they struggled to pick up wickets against the tykes but the Rose Bowl normally offers abit of assistance to the bowlers. Defending champions Notts have had a indifferent start to the season but have been unlucky with the weather. I expect a good game here as long as the weather holds off throughout, the wicket should offer something for both sides but I expect Hampshire to win with the draw voiding the bet.

Marie T Pat, the odds you've taken for this game includes the draw mate. Hampshire were 4/9 with Sporting Odds without the draw in play. I still think you'll be ok but thought I'd inform you in case Notts hold out for a draw. With us 341/5 as I type I can't see Notts winning from here. As for the match bets which I tipped up, Crawley has beaten Thornely, Adams vs Lamb is void as Lamb isn't playing and Pothas has beaten Carberry so it's 1-1-1 with the Somerset match bet to play.

TheRat Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 We are rinsing Somerset at the moment, and our 2 out of form players in the runs, Hick and Smith Good sign! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevshat Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 Certainly going well mate. Winning tosses and batting 1st this week was going to be crucial particularly down there at Taunton where it's a run fest. You've avoided facing their 2 spinners on the last day as well. :dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought this was a great bet but I never expected Durston to bat as well as he is right now!! 86 not out. Cameron Whites in with him now (27 not out), maybe he can get him run out for you!

davidmphill Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 Hants bet looks well nailed on. Conflictingly results in the H2H's with centuries for and against. Good stuff Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevshat Posted June 8, 2006 Author Share Posted June 8, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 Cheers mate. Hampshire aren't not going to win from here so it's been a good week this one, if Cameron White can produce one of those double centuries of his in this innings it could be a very good week!!

kevshat Posted June 9, 2006 Author Share Posted June 9, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 Hampshire complete a routine victory and Cameron White's century for Somerset was far too good for Durston so all in all it's been a good week for me cricket wise.

winbet Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Re: County Championship Cricket 6/6 - 10/6 Great Stuff Kevshat, I am a Notts supporter BTW. Cricket is a funny old game, 7 matches ago we were celebrating the title, now we are propping up everyone else. At least Notts have only lost one 1 dayer so far this season, expect it to be two after today though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
