I can't believe Australia declared so early. They should have taken a 500+ run lead before sending the WI into bat again

That is the confidence level on there bowlers. West Indies still require another 369 runs with 8 wickets. It looks like WI will not score so many runs even though they play very slow. Australia just need to pick up another three more wickets than rest of them will not stay longer.

WI just lost another wicket so I don't think they will chase down this score. Australia will be the winner of this match.

Last 10 overs WI scored just around 1 run per over. This shows that they are really trying there best to keep the wickets but Australian bowlers are not allowing them to stand. It is very good performance from Australian team.

Australia took 2 wickets in quick succession just then, the mood has been turned around once again.

I thought for a sec there that the West Indians had a chance - but they don't.

Come on folks its a huge lead already , i was wondering why they wouldn't declare, chasing and winning  a total of 400 (on the fourth innings ) is a very hard thing even for class players and strong teams, and WI doesnt have those combinations right now.

Yes, chasing 400+ runs for victory in test cricket must be hard target. Australia has enough firing attack to defend West Indies. The first Innings performer Brovo already got out. So, it would be very easy task for Australia in this boxing test.

West Indies in great trouble after loosing five wickets within 200 runs. But the sixth wicket pair are doing some good job now with their partnership of 60+ runs. Only some miracle can save West Indies from losing this match. There is a result inevitable from this match, I guess that would be in Australia favor.

Today we have second one day match between Afghanistan and Zimbabwe.

I think again Afghanistan will win this match because Zimbabwe is still need to learn lot of thinks in cricket to win the matches. Anyway I will go with Afghanistan, any one else going with Afghanistan?

England VS SA test match

SA all our for just 214 runs and now England started second innings and scored 36 runs for lose of one wicket. I think it's worth Hales having a bit of a blast here, a quick 50/60 would really put England in the driving seat. This session of game is very important for England, they should add at least another 250 runs to take this match.

I believe England are already in driver seat by taking decent lead in the first innings. Another 200+ runs in this second innings and setting a target of 300+ for South Africa will make more chances for England to win this first test match of this series.

You are right England is in complete command now South Africa lost services of Steyn lead is already over 260 just more 140+ and African out of this match and their losing streak is on mean they are short of confidence and need to think about positive plains for next match

England is already leading by 261 runs with still 7 wickets remaining so I strong feel that they may go around 400 runs easily. If they do than mostly they will win this match quite easily.

West Indies still require another 396 runs to win this test match with 9 wickets remaining. By looking at there past performance against Australia I don't think they will reach this score.

England have taken lead 333+ and i think after lunch they should declare it and give south africa chase so that they can take wicket and win this test match.

West Indies lost this test match but second innings they some what played decently but it was clear that Australia was dominating from start of the match.

I totally agree with you but nor the Afghanistan know much about cricket but compared to the Zimbabwean crickets I thing I will go with Afghanistan

thats a wrap for AUS to win in the 4th day as predicted.. won my bet .. and really looking forward for the SA vs ENG match . doesnt understand how things play out. SA does lack in confidence at the moment, if they overcome it, then its going to be interesting

[QQ88]

Nicely played by the Australians again. Won comfortably.

and West indies have lost this match in 4 days itself the match finished , australia team will be in great boost after winning this second test and now they are leading with 2-0

England have taken a lead of 364 runs, i think after lunch they can play for more 24 over and then declare it so the score can past 400+ after that they have to defend that score. so that they can win this first test match in south africa.

[cluit]

South Africa is set a target of mammoth 416 to win their boxing day test. I guess, there is no possibilities for winning chances for South Africa. England got enough bowling attack and scores on board to defend.
There are only two possibilities from this match. England will win or South Africa will play a blocking cricket to draw this match.

[electronicfactura]

Zimbabwe is playing totally differently in this match as 161/2 in 35 overs.It seems today Zimbabwean came to win this match to make it equal by 1-1.I see Zimbabwe as winner today against Afghanistan.

[bithasher]

I do agree that Zimbabwe is dominating the match and their game plan looks to set up and target of 280+ for Afghanistan which will put them in struggle especially when it comes to chase.Anyway I will place my bet after the end of Zimbabwean innings to be more sure.

[newcripto]

I placed on Afghanistan before the start of the match and now at these odds of @3.50 I raised my bet.Both teams are equal and Zimbabwean side is really weak in bowling to defend this target.I am pretty confident about my decision.

[fantoos]

South Africa seems in troubles in 1st test match.England @1.49 was looking promising and safer so I placed on England right now.I dont see SA as winner neither this match being ended at draw.

[twister]

Zimbabwe is going to win today easily. I guess the last loss really affected them and they worked hard, 253 is looking like a big total to me and I don't think Afghanistan can achieve that, they're a good-ish team but I don't see them winning today.

Now Afghanistan is in trouble after have some good score by Zimbabwe its hard target for them even Zimbabwe is weak in bowling but Afghanistan is also not strong in chasing
England is in driving seat right now after taking 3 quick wickets this is last recognized pair from South Africa for resistance they need to play with patience if they want some positive result from this match

Afghanistan took and slow but careful start in this match.I don't think 253 is that high score where you can be sure of Zimbabwe win.I also will say Afghanistan has equal chances to win with so many wickets in hands.

I do agree with you thats why I placed on Afghanistan and till this moment I am convince of the winning of Afghan team in this one day match too.

Afghanistan won the match in 48 overs, i got the odd of 3.5 when they were 6wickets down., in this lower rank teams you can always go for high odds because 100% you will get other team also higher odds because in this type of matches you will get both team favrites 99% of time.

congrats on winning the bet on afghanistan
