Punters make Australia their $2.25 favourites at Sportingbet to win the second Ashes test after stumps on day 1 in Adelaide. A draw is now the second favourite option at $2.50, while an England victory is $4.50.
Australia firmed into as short as $2 during live betting at Sportingbet during play on day 1 but drifted to $2.50 following an afternoon batting collapse.
The odds of a draw fluctuated between $2 and $2.75 during play on day 1, while the odds of an England victory fluctuated between $3.75 and $7.
One Sportingbet punter will be hoping Australia reach 300 runs on day 2 without the fall of another wicket, after placing $10,000 on that option at $1.90 when Australia was on 260 runs.
“The punter would no doubt be one of Michael Carberry’s biggest fans at the moment after that crucial dropped catch in the final overs,” Sportingbet’s Andrew Brown said.
