Cricket Odds: Big Bash Semi-Finals Time
January 22nd, 2015 by G WaldorfWe won’t know for sure where the second of the Big Bash 2015 Semi-Finals will be held, because the Sixers are in action tonight against the Thunder (get all the Cricket odds by clicking that link!), but we know the teams that are going to be involved, and we know that the Strikers have already earned the right to host one of those three other teams at the Adelaide Oval on either the 24th or the 25th.
The Strikers have been in sizzling form and they’ve more than earned that home advantage, finishing the regular season three points clear of their nearest rivals, and with the best net run rate by a country mile. Along with the Scorchers (both teams are at odds of $3.25), they are the bookies’ favourites, too, to go on and win this year’s Big Bash Final. Significantly, they secured that home Semi-Final with a convincing win over the Sixers that saw them make short work of the Sydney top order – and that will give them good confidence going into the business end of the season. Remember, though, that it was the Scorchers who ended the Strikers’ perfect run in this year’s Big Bash, and both sides will have memories of that if they meet in a Semi-Final or in the Final itself.
We’ll be re-visiting the Big Bash prospects in these pages before the Semi-Finals and the Finals come around next week – and, of course, we’ve got all the Cricket odds you could want, both for the Big Bash and for the ongoing tri-series between Australia, England and India…
