Centrebet punters around the country and across the world are tipping Australia to retain the Ashes, but forced to settle for a drawn five-Test series on the eve of The Oval showdown!
Centrebet media chief Neil Evans said a 72-hour surge of money had all been around the final Test ending in a stalemate, with the Draw backed from an opening $2.50 into $2.20! “Michael Clarke has said Australia will be gunning for the win, but with rain around and The Oval wicket traditionally full of runs, punters have gone down the middle big-time,” Evans said.
“You have to remember both sides have a genuine fear of losing this match – Australia would relinquish the Ashes for a second straight tour, a result which for a long time seemed unthinkable, while a 1-1 result would be seen as a massive over-achievement for the Poms! Australia will have only one mission going in – win the toss and pile on as many runs as imaginable!”
Evans said there was five times as many bets on a Draw, than Australia and England put together, including $10,000.00 from a Sydney client at $2.50, $7,500.00 from a Lower North Shore punter at $2.50, $4,000.00 from a Brisbane client at $2.45, $5,500.00 from a Maharastra-based punter in India at $2.45, $5,000.00 from a Sydney professional at $2.40, $3,500.00 from a Melbourne client at $2.38, and even 2000 Pounds and 1500 Pounds from two London customers at $2.25!

Meanwhile, in an exclusive Anglo-Saxon offer, Centrebet is offering punters the chance for a 5th Ashes Test-European Grand Prix double! “Punters can back Australia, the Draw, or England into Mark Webber, Jenson Button or Lewis Hamilton to finish highest in the European GP at Valencia in Spain! A Draw/Lewis Hamilton double is the early favourite at $4.50 ahead of $5.00 for Australia into Hamilton! “The $7.00 for an Australia/Webber double surely will be popular. Webber’s in career best F1 form – and he loves his cricket. It might be in the stars! We’ve turned this week into a real England v Australia showdown, making runs and burning rubber,” Evans added!
