    Two cracking bets

    There is no way South Africa should be $1.60 to beat West Indies in tonight's second semi-final, and looking ahead I am equally surprised Australia is $1.70 to beat Wales in Saturday's rugby international.

    Both games in my opinion are close to 50/50. Fill yer boots. Certainly the cricket match tonight has the potential to be a trading dream. SAF's batting while good on paper hasn't really fired in this tournament while most of the WI's top order has at least one decent score. The SAF seam attack will I suspect be negated somewhat by the Jaipur pitch and WI have Gayle, Samuels and perhaps Sarwan in the slow bowling department compared to Robin Petersen (who?) for SAF. I won't be surprised at a Windies win but more to the point I'd settle for a game with some twists and turns and a result in doubt right down to the wire.

    The inference being last night's game wasn't in doubt right down to the wire??

    I'd actually make Windies slight favourites; as with Wales on Saturday.

    November is always such a great month....
