MaharajahClub.com updates Cricket World Cup odds

23 Mar 2007

LONDON, England – (PRESS RELEASE) -- Odds on India to win the Cricket World Cup were lengthened after their shocking loss to Bangladesh in the Opening Match of Group B, but their win over Bermuda on Monday prompted MaharajahClub.com bookmakers to shorten the odds on India winning the Cup to 8/1. Australia remains the clear favourite at 2/1 to take the coveted cricket prize.

India, which had a record-breaking 257 runs in Monday's game, must win tonight's match against rival Sri Lanka to continue in the tournament. Additionally, with 155 runs so far, Indian Batsman Sourav Ganguly (12/1) is a strong contender for Best Batsman in the tournament but Australia's Ricky Ponting (136 runs) is the favourite for this prop at 6/1.

"Most of our punters are southeast Asians living in Britain, so their loyalties are split between India and England," said Sachin Pawa CEO of MaharajahClub.com. "The loss against Bangladesh had some people sceptical about India and we started to see more money wagered on England, but since the win against Bermuda we're seeing much more money back on India this week."

MaharajahClub.com offers more Cricket World Cup betting propositions than any other online sportsbook. While most sportsbetting sites just offer cricket as an afterthought, MaharajahClub.com offers odds on every match in the month-long Cricket World Cup tournament as well as player props like Best Batsman and Best Bowler. MaharajahClub.com offers in-running wagering on many games including Saturday's Australia/South Africa match-up.

The Second Stage, or Super 8, phase of the Cricket World Cup continues next week in Antigua & Barbuda, Grenada, Guyana and Barbados. The Semi-Final Round will be held in Jamaica and St. Lucia the following week with the Final Match in Barbados April 28th.
