1:32 which it's all a bit of a dilemma at the moment, isn't it? When we're going at such a rate. Question is, do you play it safe? You know, I had two big odds on bets last time, big favorite bets last time. Maybe we do the same, but let's long way continue. We just keep going, keep doing what we're doing. Uh, let's say hi to best bet supreo number two, Richard M. I was going to say give us your P and L, but just give us your P. >> Yeah, it's 3143. I think last week was 16s, 9-2, and a 5-6 winner. And England let me down on the 9-2. Both teams to score against the West Indies. But but no, not complaining. I I'm definitely just trying to try and keep going with with the same modus opera and I am I'm certainly not changing up at the moment.

Let's get on to telling you what is on the show. Uh we're going to do a full rundown of the outrightes on the T20 World Cup as we approach the
3:05 Super Eights. This is the business end of the tournament. Look at the winner market. Reach the final. I've got a bit of a spot for you on group winner. Get Paul and Rich's view on that. We got some updated rankings trying to work out what these teams are doing well and not so well. and then full previews the team news pitch report stats trades strategies for the three super eight matches across the weekend Pakistan versus New Zealand versus England and India versus South Africa let's look at those outrights and trying to break down who wins the T20 World Cup however and the super rates are upon us and we're quite grateful for that a bit bored of the associate stuff now but India 11 to 10 these prices with bet right South Africa for England and sixes. Kiwis are eight, Pakistan 10, Sri
3:52 Lanka 12's Wendy's 16, Zimbabwe 80 to reach the final again with Betright 4 to7 India South Africa 7 to4 England 5-2 11 to4 Kiwis Pakistan 4 to1 Sri Lanka 11-2 West Indies 11-2 Zimbabwe 22 um let's take a bit of a pause on me just reading out numbers we'll come back to super eight group one winner and two winner prizes with bet right in a second. Uh Paul uh let's get an overview from you. Second favorite Australia went home. Well, they were second favorites at one stage. England are wobbling. India have got 100% record but I haven't exactly convinced. South Africa looking strong. Where you at?
4:38 >> Well, I think we all agreed at the start there's a big gulf between the two groups. these two groups um India and South Africa to me and what we've seen and what we know anyway about them they look a class apart for my money of course that could change some of us could find some form but at the moment they both look really strong all I would say about India though as well and I think we discussed this a little bit the other day but really I've been thinking more about it they are I think they're beatable I just think that I don't know why they haven't picked Shuman Gill and Shria doesn't make any sense to me They need leaders out there. They've got this way of playing which they don't need to do. I mean, for me, their bowling is just impeccable and really truly outstanding and no team is going to
5:25 really hammer them too much. But the way they bat, the way they go all out at the top head, it could so easily go wrong and it has gone wrong bit. You know, it went wrong against America and against Namibia, they just fell in a hole as well. you know, if they did that against a good side against a South Africa, uh, or maybe even England, if England improved, they'd be in a bit of trouble. So, I don't think they're any value. I think you probably could get a bit of value taking them on at laying them at 2.26, whatever they are on bet fair. I just think at some point they'll go bigger. But I think that the real value bet here is South Africa for the final because, right, so they're 5.8 eight on the exchange I believe to um win the tournament right they can't play India in semi so if they're seven to four in
6:13 the semi surely that's a better seven four surely that's a better bet than to reach the final when they probably play India right and um you know to me okay I respect that I respect West Indies they've done well they're a bit unlucky to be in that group but you would still fancy South Africa to get out of that group and to be a clear favorite in the semi All right, as you've mentioned that that group largely Paul Super 8 group one winner with bet right India 8-13's on South Africa 5-2 Wendy's 13-2 Zims 25 uh super eight group two winner with Betright England 7 to4 New Zealand 5-2 Pakistan 7-2 Sri Lanka 4 to1 come back on that Sri Lanka price in a bit um rich um outright views I mean I've got a
6:59 question about England we we were very keen on them to reach the final. Uh they are in the weaker group. They're supposed to be the strongest team in that group. How are you feeling about them? Because they've been they've been very they've been very poor, haven't they? >> Underwhelming. Yeah. Um but but we we identified at the start that they had a really good draw and it has worked out that way. It's a really good opportunity now. Um, look, Butler and Salt at the top of the order were key to their chances and neither have fired. I can't believe Butler will go through the composition without making a big impact somewhere along the way. So, I'm not as down on them. I know they've lost one game to the West Indies, but turning pitch at the one batting second against what I
7:45 think is capable West Indies outfit. I don't think it's doom and gloom at all for England. I think you can go right through the sort of top four or five who you think are potential winners. They've all got kinks in their armor. I don't think there's a perfect side at all. I mean, we've everyone's build India up, but this isn't Australia in the early 2000s, is it? This far from that. And I agree with Paul at 5 to four, they look a pretty shocking price. Um, so no, I England are still 5-2 to reach the final. I could definitely get on board with that because I think come to the semis, you will be in a naturally a better position. even if you get India or South Africa, you're not they're not going to be 5-2 to win the game against either of those sides. Um, but I agree on Paul's broader point about South
8:30 Africa have been the best side in the competition. Um, for my money, South Africa and New Zealand have been the two most impressive sides and then when they played, South Africa had too many guns for them. Um, the slight sort of concern really is that we have seen this a lot with South Africa in IC events. They've bossed tournaments in the early stages and then when they've got to the latter stages, that's when they've come unstuck, but we're banking on the fact that they won the test championship final last summer at Lords, that's the monkey off the back. If it if it is the monkey off the back, I think they're just about the team to beat. I really do because I think they've been super impressive. >> All right, I want to give an update on the rankings just to work out where what these teams are doing well and not so well. And uh interesting India and
9:18 England sort of middle ranking on strike rate. They came into this tournament as one and two in terms of explosive batting. New Zealand and South Africa your fastest run scorers. Pakistan um second bottom to Zimbabwe. Bowling economy. Well Zimbabwe are top of the Super Eight pile in that regard. India number two. Um as Paul mentioned their bowling is superb. Sri Lanka at number three. Sanka also at uh number three for batting power. So in terms of all round game they're doing rather well. I'm just wondering whether this makes Sri Lanka value not necessarily to um go uh to the final um or even to make it out of the
10:03 well this this porter one about them winning group two. Um they play all their games at home. I know they've lost Pathana and has Saranga's win injury. I don't think the loss of Pathan is a huge problem. Madishan coming in actually got a better win rate in terms of um winning top bowler. So not worried about that. Paul, you were on them to win group um the first group stage anyway and that's in balance as we record. But what have you thought about Sri Lanka and is that four to one a bet? Um I think they did great the other day against Australia. Obviously they did brilliant in that game. I've still got my doubts and to be honest with you I think the odds have come in now um accordingly. You know it's hard to get
10:50 away from the fact if we look over the longer term England comfortably beat them and Sri Lanka last month. Um over the last couple of years they have in this format they have not been top rate. They are not quite in that top top echelon and in a wide open group. Okay. I mean they're a sporting bet for one but I think the value is probably gone. The value is when they were 40 to1 to win a tournament at the start. I would also say I I think that's a negative path to hana personally. I think that's a big loss. >> Rich just very quickly you just spotted something on top England run scorer. Yeah. Well, I mean, if England are going to go deep and the draw gives them a chance of doing that, the top tournament
11:38 batsman market could could clearly be turned upside down. Bethl leads at the moment and he's a short price, but Harry Brook's nine to one with Betright, top England tournament run scorer. There's still plenty of cricket to be played. We saw what Brooke did in Sri Lanka in the one day as and the T20s. He could turn that around quickly. you're looking at one match winning in somewhere and he's he's right back in the mix there. 55 he's got a makeup. Um he's batting down at five as well at the moment and I just wonder if we get to crunch time whether we'll see Brook go up certainly to four um and potentially even to three as well. I just feel like with Butler out of Brook's the best player and I feel like they're wasting him a little bit. Um I've I mentioned this off air didn't
12:24 last week. I've got a sense that since Australia who's had the bit between his teeth Brooke bited a bit more responsibly in Sri Lanka and I just wonder if we get to crunch time if he'll take a bit more responsibility a big price 9 to1 just on that just on that market right okay I know hasn't played well so far but do you not think that butler has sort of reasonable value there just in that it only takes one in these are class players right and it's not that far behind they could have five more things. Well, well, I did actually look at Butler as well. I mean, form has has put me off, but it just with the same theory, you just need one really big match winning innings, you get a highscoring game somewhere with 220 players 220, which I think we do. Um,
13:09 and that market's turned completely upside down. I won't we but yeah, you could throw a few quid at Butler big price as well. I mean, I'd argue that England's entire tournament rests on Butler and whether this is some sort of terminal decline or something more serious. He hasn't actually won top back for 14 games now. And Rich mentioned it a while back in terms of player performance. That opportunity to bet him on player performance has completely gone now. His numbers are just through the floor. So in terms of somebody setting the tone and being a leader maybe if England have lost a pivotal player and Butler's form's just gone uh completely the wrong time let's just move very very quickly
13:54 Paul uh name the finalists what were you on what you on now >> I was on India South Africa final at 9-2 and I would have the same bet again today at 11 to4 >> Rich what are you on >> yeah I I think I was I think I took India on. I think I was South Africa, England and it's 12 to1 now and I'd be happy enough with that still as well. >> All right, do get subbed up to those telegram channels in the comments section below.

14:39 right. Let's get some uh games on. We'll deal with three super eights in this podcast. The first one is Pakistan versus New Zealand Saturday 13:30 Columbbo at the RPS. Uh I've got New Zealand's marginal fair is 1.8. We'll see what prices transpire. Um it is a night match comebacks the importance of that in a bit. Possible 11s for you. Pakistan farab salmon baba shadab noazes mane tariq and abra armed coming back into the team. New Zealand seafood Allen Rainda Chapman Mitchell Phillips Nisham Sati Henry Duffy headto-head 4-1 New Zealand won at home in March was a 2-2 draw in Pakistan in April 2024. New Zealand fastest scorers
15:24 in the tournament versus Pakistan who are bottom feeders in that regard but Pakistan much tighter with the ball. Uh Kiwis have struggled in that regard. Second um uh that's a statistic about Afghanistan at second bottom. I don't know why I'm reading Afghanistan statistics for you. Uh Rich, what you made of the Kiwis? >> Really good. I thought they've been brilliant. Um, apart from the South Africa game where they played pretty well, just outmuscled by by what I think is a very good side. Um, just a massive switching conditions for the Kiwis zone. They're usually the sort of side to adapt really well. Um, but they played the cricket at Chennai which has been a road unusually but it's been brilliant for runs scoring at this tournament and now they've got a shift here where we
16:11 know it's tougher for batting lots of spin. Um anywhere else I would say New Zealand or a banker here because I don't think Pakistan are great but here loaded with spin it does it's definitely a leveler. >> Uh Paul just a quick view on on Pakistan. >> Uh I think they value here I think uh they've been predictably inconsistent murial as they always are. I I mean look they were absolute rubbish against India but then they have been in every big match against them in recent years in the group apart from the Oakler they've been okay I think that you know now we're on a spinning pitch like Premadasa they've got they've got a big chance really at this level I would say that in
16:58 that group if I had to have a bet in a really trappy group it would be them. >> All righty. Uh I mentioned the ground guide that may hold the key here. 14 T20 internationals in N games since 2021. 10 won by the chaser. Average runs per over in first things 6.91 165 or more. Busted once 60 or more busted five times. Um we'll come to Paul V's ground nuggets in a second. But Richard, we do we just back the chaser here. >> It's very tempting. I hate doing this unless it's Dubai. just it goes against everything I I want to believe him but I've watched the Sri Lankan games and it has been wet through in the second innings particularly Pal Kelly actually but here as well loads of
17:44 due massive advantage batting second I suppose that lends itself to backing Pakistan if the 2.2 22 2.3 um even pritos because you are at an advantage about second. >> Quite like to be on the Kiwis in a chase. So when you're just reliable. >> Yes, >> you would, wouldn't you? Um Paul, great stats on this ground. I mean, you're the king of the grounds. What you got? >> This has been the one, hasn't it? Um so we've now got 16 T20 at nationals in the last 5 years. The sixes, the highest number of sixes in any game is 12. Only three of them have been higher than nine. So 13 out of 16 under 10, which you would that would be the lowest line in the tournament, 9.5. They put that up. Um on total match runs, only three
18:31 out of the 16 made 300 and only one beat 313. So it's definitely an underground. I would add as well that this will be the sixth game at the Premadasa and we had some games there as well last month. Uh I'd be very surprised if this isn't a used pitch now. >> All righty. Uh let's move on to player win rates uh for you. Tim Cifa is your top performer in international cricket T20 at this World Cup with a win rate of 40% over a 22 game study on your top bats. Uh also strike rate of 207 against Pakistan last year. Scored 249 runs at 62. Finn Allen wasn't far behind in terms of um runs 144th average 33 strike
19:21 rate with 211. Uh very interesting in terms of what happens in the power play in that one. Duffy 13 wickets in five uh in that home series a wicket every eight balls 38% win rate. I had a bit I had a bit of a sort of meltdown about Duffy um early on this tournament on our own Watsra app group um when he got beat on top bowl in the last two balls uh of a match. I'm not sure I can bet him again because of that worried about him getting the um uh full quot um he has actually won since then and he won outright in terms on of economy as well. Uh so Duffy 38% win rate. Nazarez 22% win rate. Uh top bowler for Pakistan
20:07 often underrated. Rich who do you like? >> Well I like Phillips in the tops market but I think probably a better bet player performance market life score have just gone up. Phillips 33.5. Um he's he's made actually over 145 of the last nine. I think he might ball some overs here as well. he hasn't really needed to ball that much. Um, but if it spins, he's very handy going in the field as well. So, I did like that. I couldn't argue with him for top New Zealand bat either, but I just think that's a safer way to go. I just wanted to mention Fan at the top of the order for Pakistan. I know he's been getting all the runs and he now heads the betting, but I do think he's as as Paul as snooker fans would say, he's had plenty of run of the balls. you know, he
20:52 has had some luck and I just felt like Salman made a score of recording on Wednesday in that Namibia game. Feel like he's just coming right. I think it might be the time to back salmon. >> Paul, who' you like? >> So, um, well, first of all, I just want to note that there have been three stumpings in four matches at the Premadasa. So, the average fielding point for the wicket keepers is 14 in each game, right? which points to a Tim Seaffort player performance bet at 32.5 every chance there. I'd also note I mean S maru performance I know the line's gone up but it's only 36.5 he's beaten it five of his last seven even if you look over the long term it's 15 all over
21:37 30 matches but in a lot of those games he didn't bowl he's definitely going to bowl at the primadasa suits him down the ground so I'd look at him I also like Philillips uh for top bat as Rick said um and I would just say um I mean again I'll be interested in the W mad has platforms if anyone goes up and because I'm a little bit keen on Pakistan I'm going to go Usman TK and S my man in a match dutched I think Usman Tar could be big problem for New Zealand on this pitch >> we put you on to in our preview show for India versus Pakistan the big one that was the last time we were in the ears and on your uh screens uh if you want to get best bets to straight to your

Second game now Sri Lanka versus England Sunday 09:30 dayight game. Pal England were 1.55 and Sri Lanka 2.75 in that series in January. Sri Lanka Nisanka Pereira is into the team. Kusel, Lassanaka, Shanaka, Kamindu, Weather Large, Himantha, Chamira, Thik Shana, Magis, Shan coming in, Salt, Butler, Bethl, Brandon, Book, Sam, Cars, Jamie Everton, Dawson, Archer, Rashid. Uh, no dayight matches on this ground since 2020. Uh, seven of those 12 were won by the side batting first. Um,
23:12 five of the last six in the last 12 months were nine games. England won 3-0 in that series in January and February. Run scoring good in first two games but then a used surface the last one. England defended 128. Uh Paul you've had a bit of a say on Sri Lanka already. So um any value in Sri Lanka and match odds? >> Well considering there's probably a top spot wise here I think they probably are value and given how bad England have been. You know, if you ignore what happened last month between the two sides, England have been terrible in this group has definitely been the best side and it's about second place. No doubt about it. It's too much. There was massive the Australia game. It was a huge advantage going in second.
23:58 >> Uh Brit uh England are England a full blank side against Sri Lanka. Rich, >> well do think things like that are important when you've been playing a side for a month and you've been getting beat up by them or you've been doing the beating up. I definitely think it'll it it has some importance. Um so yeah, I I would favor favor England though. I just would yeah the chase bias would put me off. Interesting how much we get, but we've seen significant deal at this ground >> round BS ball. >> Well, you know, I'm in a bit of two minds here because this is the best ground for runs in Sri Lanka. this is a potential 200 grand and you saw that high scoring game against unmarked right so it could happen if it's on if if it's
24:44 a new surface but then I don't know what you guys made of that Australia innings the other day I mean it was truly shocking wasn't it they looked like they're going to go about 230 or something and they just completely stopped scoring at halfway right then wasn't it >> yeah but I mean it was shocking though wasn't I mean they couldn't get anything and they got their team can't play Yeah. So maybe it's just the team. It wasn't that the pitch was that hard because again I know it was due, but it looked incredibly easy to bat after that. It looked like a 200 pitch. >> So um I'm a bit on the fence for that. I'm inclined to think it will be high score in this. >> Okay, one more nugget from Richard before I go to players to follow. >> Yeah, we have a look at your player performances. Uh been trying to get Tom
25:30 Banton who's batted well, but he's an absolute gun in the field. I think it was three catches in last game. If you can get anything player performance, we're waiting for firms to price up around the 30 mark. You know, the runs line will be like 25 and they generally stick a a cursory five on, don't they? And make it up player performance. But Banton's field in the hot spots, England bowling, loads of spin, so he's banging the game. Um the other one is current, but I don't think we'll get it. But I mean, in these last three, he's made up at 73 68 85. Um maybe man of the match for Sam Curran. Actually, I doubt we'll get our player performance quite sadly. >> Players to follow. Don't forget India versus South Africa coming up after this with the bet right boost and best bets combined on that from uh yours truly.
26:16 Let's go back to England and Sri Lanka. Let's talk Butler and Salt. No wins yet in this tournament for either of them. Salt winning at 30% since the end of the last World Cup. Butler's win rate has gone uh such as the Dibling form 23% and Nether actually had a great series in that Jan Feb encounter. Salt did get a top bat win. Uh as I said Butler now not one for 14. Uh and you won't be getting win rate value at 23%. No bookmaker is going to be going anywhere close to that. This Sanka 33% is somebody who goes back to back. Uh and a big potential follow on top bowl is Chamira 27.7 win rate took five wickets against England the last time they played. Um
27:03 Richard and Paul. >> Yeah, Kamir is interesting because we you just picked holes in the opening pair and you know he'll take the new ball. So he he's got an in straight away there. Um Manka is just miles the best for showanker. I I wouldn't be put off by going in again if the price is right. I did actually wonder if Nasanka was more of a top match batsman bet. He'd probably get another two or three points on that. And again with England's top two struggling, he might be taking on England's middle order and he's obviously an opener, so he's at an advantage there. That might actually be a lesser stake play, but they take the bigger price. Um, England's a middle order for me, and I'd go for Brook, who was Imperious on the toe here about a month ago. >> Uh, Paul, who do you like?
27:49 Well, I think Oakers have got a big advantage here. I think that's definitely the best time to bat. So, I couldn't put anyone off this anchor. I mean, really solid player. Um, I'm not sure I'd have the bottle to bet them, especially since I've got Jos Butler positions running already, but he's got to win soon. Class is, you know, class is permanent. And we have said before he is the one player in one batsman in T20 in cricket you stick with. So, I'm still going to say Butler. I think it's interesting we bought that. I'm I've tried to change it over the last year and stop writing off these great players because we famously did it on this podcast for David Warner, didn't we? And he came back and bit us. So, I'm trying to just give people a little bit more space these great players and
28:34 hopefully he's got a got a renaissance coming in the next week or so. >> All righty. Please subscribe to our partners bet. Right. You bet 10 quid and get a£10 a new customers only. Thanks to the offer with the cricket betting podcast. Enter your code aka 10. Minimum five-fold aka with total odds of evens or greater. There you go. You might find an aer in this India versus South Africa game 1330 Sunday. A medabad India likely to be certainly no better than 1.7. India Abishek Ishan Tilac Skyhardik Dub, Rinku, Axar coming back in on Bumra and Von South Africa, Markham, DK, Rickleton Brevis Stubs Miller Yansen, Bosch, Maharaj, Rob and Nigi.
29:20 Um, and just a little bit of an angle here. Mark and Stubs with their off breaks off breaks. I wouldn't be at all surprised if Mark opens the bowling. India have the lowest run rate against off spin in this World Cup. That's lower even than Oman because they got six left-handed batters in their first choice top eight and the teams have worked that out and even South Africa who aren't exactly the brightest has probably worked that out as well. So I could well see Mark opening the bowling there. So player performance potential with Mark. Uh India second on economy with the ball though against South Africa in sixth on a potential road. But it is red pill or black pill. Red soil or black soil which we all want to know about. So we're very keen to find out uh
30:07 on the pitch report. Uh we were quick on the draw in the VIP for India's game against the Dutch when we worked out is black soil. That means we sell the runs lines which were very high for India 228 227 and all those kinds of number numbers and they came way short. um head India beat South Africa in a runfest in 2025 at this ground. That was obviously black soil. So 22 232 played 2011. Uh Paul thoughts on the match. I mean obviously with the huge caveat that we don't know what the pitch is. >> Well I think that um it will probably be um red soil because the last one was black soil and they usually are red soil here. Um and in that case that means
30:53 another run fest for me and whilst India obviously I respected South Africa have to be valued for me as I said before I've got my doubts about India's batting I just think you know obviously they can do anything but I can also see them just losing a couple of early wickets again and stalling and you've got a side who are good enough to take advantage of it. >> Uh Rich, who wins the match? I think South African beat them. I think we'll definitely be value particularly near the off because I expect India will be very hard in the buildup. India unimpressive so far for me. They could and they should improve but there's absolutely the other thing as well is is is all the pressure that is going to come on to them now we get to the latter stages people in India have been
31:39 unimpressed with how they've played and now people expect a lot of pressure on a the shoulders of a young size. Just get this. India have dropped nine catechis at the tournament so far. Um that's the second highest after Ireland who dropped 10. I think they've dropped most of them in that one game as well. Ireland >> dropped five in one game. >> Five in one game. So and then it's Namibia who dropped six. India tournament favorites have dropped nine catches so far in four games. I mean that's a shocking shocking stat. >> What else happens Paul? One more thing. >> Runs galore. both teams to score. Um, this is the most reliable runs ground in India. We've seen it in the IPL. 200 is odds on and that counts on average
32:25 including the black saw pitches. So, I'd be well up for backing. Both score 200, both score 210, even 220. I think it could be that cuz the other thing is look, these big scores, we haven't seen that many of them cuz I think teams are holding back. They're not going to take a risk when they're playing the associate side in this match. They both know they can't hold back. The 220 might not be enough. So, I think really big runs. >> All righty. Uh, one more thing that happens to you, Richard, in this one. >> Well, we haven't been talking beforehand before people say, but Mark can play a performance for exactly the the reasons you said the board to the leftanders. I think Marah actually is a bit of a worry for South Africa bowling all those left-handers. So, they'll need Markham to pick up the slack. He's been batting brilliantly as well. So, another one for
33:12 player performance for me and Corbyn Bosch, who I'm sure Eddie going to talk about in a minute and and and Kurt, but another for player performance because you'll talk about his bowling in a second, but his batting is very handy. It hasn't been needed yet, but he can really give it a whack down the order. Now, we're getting to the latter stages where teams get more tested. Jansen Bosch, you'll need to bat. Um, he's just so reliable. So, those of those would be two player performance looks for me. uh player win rates. Now I've got a question to uh Rich coming up on on Southpaws related to Marco Yansen. Rich, just to get your brain ticking away. Um now then it's the bet right boost time for you and it's going to be best bets from me. As I said, Paul and Richard are put in their best bets into the
33:58 channels. Their five units each specifically requested for this game by betright and it is Abashek Sharma top India back 3 to one with Betright. You're getting three to one about a guy who's winning 34% of the time. I know he's an incredible start. It's like talking telephone numbers. Uh duck duck duck. It can't continue with just somebody like Abasha because he just talking about players with ability. Richard mentioned it just an astonishing run surely has to come to an end at some point. Had a nice little tuneup with 34 from 21 against South Africa at this venue when they met. Um so that's a bet from me. And my second one also with
34:44 Betright boosted is Von 13 to5 for top bowler as we hope we might get some grip on this pitch four for 43 versus South Africa in that Amedabad game that we mentioned in the head-to-head. He took 10 wickets in four games against South Africa. So best bets Abashek Sharma top India bat 3 to one bet right. Baron Czechravati top India bowler 13-5 bet right there you go other win rates Quinton Dotting 28% at the time 250s in that series against India Bosch 47% win rate on top bowler I backed him in all three of the matches that South Africa
35:30 had played hadn't won non-runner in one of them didn't do it in the associate game against uh UAE because I didn't think UA would take it to death. Bosch of course won. Uh you got to keep taking the wrong prices. Um Bosch also won top bar in that head-to-head match at a medbed. Richard man, what you got? >> I'm glad you ran about Yansen. I had a brain freeze for a minute. Yeah, really good bowler obviously. Um but his record against leftanders brilliant. So in T20s his average to rightanders 17 dismissals is 1958. That's that's perfectly respectable. But to left-handers and we know India are loaded with left-handers um it's 14.66 and then in one day international cricket to right-handers
36:17 28 dismissals average of 24 per perfectly respectable but to left-handers 21 dismissals average of 13.19 I mean it's just astonishingly good. It's not just a difference it's just how good he is against leftanders full stop. Um, so Abashek, Ishan, Tillak, there's three in the top three straight away. I mean, him and Markham, I agree. I think they'll open with Markham and I think they'll open with Yansen. Um, or they should because I think Jan, he makes Yansen really interesting. He might not win top bowler, but he might not knock Abashek and Ishan over and that might doom the man of the match award. You know, just two or more. Yeah. Two wickets or more bet 365 bet way. Shame more firms don't do that market. Um, how about that
37:04 original man's brain working like that for you on the cricket betting podcast comes up with the stats in minutes flat. Uh, brilliant stuff Paul. >> Well, I like your two bets on Abbyishek and um, Faren. Um, I think you've got to go with openers on meds. I think that the best way to do it is other market. So the mark player performance absolutely he's in great form. Also though I think the [ __ ] to make a 50 he is so due. He was in such great form going in and this is the place for me. All righty.
