Darkie’s bets! The NZ ODI is tomorrow and the other 2 matches are currently underway.

Head top innings bat $25 @ 8
Khawaja century $35 @ 6

Philander top 2nd innings wicket taker $15 @ 4.50

Ross Taylor top match bat $25 @ 9

 

[THCLT]

Ross Taylor top match bat $25 @ 9

Taylor is the club house leader at the change of innings with a 90, narrowly eclipsing Munro on 87.

NZ made 7/319 and SL are currently 1/37 after 7 overs (Gunathilaka 23*).

Thought I had jinxed this bet when I saw that Gunathilaka was creeping up rapidly to that 90, but alas he has now been dismissed for 71 and SL are now 5/126 after 26 overs.

Unless there's an unlikely SL victory in the making, then I think we can take this one to the bank, well played @Darkie

Haha - I won't count my chickens, at one stage I was thinking "okay, just the Sri Lankans we need to worry about" ... but then Neesham smashed 20 off an over and was in the 60s with twelve balls to play. Neesham went from $201 for top bat to $26 in a matter of minutes!

Edit: Taylor in to $1.005 on Sportsbet. Where is the "lay" button?!

Shhh!

Sodhi now doing his thing...cleaning up the tail = BANK

 

[Darkie]

Peters has raced to 54 off 30!

 

[Diabolical]

Perera up to 78 ... this is getting a bit nerve wracking!!

 

[Rowsus]

The early crow strikes again.
Damn it!

It's all over I'm afraid ... Perera on 91!

Edit: four dropped catches apparently, and NZ reviewed one earlier and the vision was unavailable. It wasn't meant to be!

 

[IDIG]

Oh damn! Just started reading this now and could’ve looked at the cashout amount when it was $1.005

 

[THCLT]

Dam sorry guys...no free to air BBL got the better of my judgement!

Williamson dropped a dolly when he was on 79, what made it worst was that the ball dropped over the boundary for a SIX.

I'll give myself an enforced ban from this thread so no more early crow from me.

 

[IDIG]

But who doesn’t like an early crow. Doc was doing it earlier and it just built up the anticipation and excitement lol

Oh no, I didn't know this was possible! My "lay" comment was tongue in cheek.

Hopefully Philander can finish strong and we can recoup a little.

 

[Darkie]

WOW - Perera finished with 140 off 74, and got within 22 runs of NZ.

 

[Beijing_Sting]

C'mon Philander. Second innings starting now, yes? I note Taylor was @6 for top kiwi score.

Yes, just started ... one to Steyn.

 

[Diabolical]

Yes, just started ... one to Steyn.

Rabada gets the second with his first ball!

Philander still only needs 2!

Great minds, I was just thinking that I never expected him to take nine!
