William Hill have cut the price of the first test against the West Indies ending in a draw from an original quote of 5/2 to 2/1 as punters expect the rain to come to their aid.
"Just over ninety percent of the wagers in the book are for the draw including a £10,000 bet and having looked at the forecast you can see why punters are backing the weather to win." said William Hill's spokesman.
William Hill rate England as their red hot favourite's to blow the West Indies away offering 1/5 that England win the series with the Windies offered at 15/2. England are 7/2 to win the series 4-0. The pressure will be on Matt Prior who will take up the troublesome wicket keeping position and William Hill offer 9/2 he scores a fifty and 20/1 that he scores a century. The bookies also offer 4/6 that takes three or less catches in the first innings and 11/10 four or more.
