Friday sees the kick off of another hotly anticipated cricket spectacle. With the game suffering on the back of negative publicity following the England vs. Pakistan spot-fixing controversy, many will be eager to get back to business and settle down for some thrilling 20/20 entertainment between the world’s top specialist sides.
The opener for the tournament see’s Indian powerhouse – the Mumbai Indians- taking on South African based Highveld Lions in Johannesburg.
The Mumbai side is in a word...class. With a batting line up boasting names like Tendulkar, Duminy and Bravo, coupled with bowlers the likes of Zaheer Khan, Harbhajan Singh and Malinga, one would feel that this side is just too good to bet against...and in most cases this would be correct. However, this is 20/20 cricket...and it is a wild ride. From a Lions standpoint Petersen is the only current international in the squad, with Neil McKenzie the most experienced, and Zander be Bruyn and Vaughn van Jaarsveld making up the contingent of the 'nearly but not quite men'
From the bookies perspective there will be only one winner in this tussle...and that will be Mumbai. Betfair feel that this, while thought to be a one-sided affair, will still suffer the adrenaline rush associated with this form of the game. They offer Mumbai at 1.43, with the lesser favoured Lions team at 3.25.
