Late stages of the Tourny now, and lotsa "must-win" games .. This time, it's for the Stars .. Thunder have lost 7 from 7, and are playing for wages/jobs.
Stars aren't so great, but Thunder are poor.
Pre-game .. Stars drift from 1.50 to 1.57 ... Prob cos of Malinga.
Stars win toss and bat
Run line - 163
Gayle plays for Thunder .. And to say he owes em 1, is an understatement.
Small lay of Stars, initially. (Betdaq offline)
Changed my mind, got tiny position with Stars.
Looks a good pitch .. Think Lumpy will try get with Stars.
Here we go ..
Stars 3-0 after 1, Stars 1.61
Stars 13-0 after 2, Stars 1.53. .. With the Stars, at 1.64 avg
Wkt - Wright runs himself out .. 6 from 9, Stars 1.63
Stars 18-1 after 3, Stars 1.62 .. I make them bigger, so have taken, v small profit, and am trying to lay Stars, at lower levels. Lumpy is in the house.
Stars 25-1 after 4, Stars 1.68 .. Which is a tad low, but, couldn't have a bet.
