Betting Coach - Australia vs India The Fourth Test

In the early hours of Thursday morning, Australia and India will lock horns once again in this pulsating Test Series. With no Fifth Test scheduled - we wouldn't want to interfere with endless ODIs just for the sake of Test Cricket's greatest rivalry would we - there's no series at stake, but nobody believes that these two teams will be anything other than fiercely committed.

Join me over the jump for some value at the bookies. 

Straight off the back of Perth's unexpected win, India are available at 8/1 with Boylesports, which, especially if they win the toss, looks very generous. Just about the only other value with the fixed odds merchants can be found at Totesport who offer Virender Sehwag as top Indian bat (1st innings) at 6/1 and Stan James who offer RP Singh at a very generous 4/1 to be top Indian bowler (1st innings).

Sportingindex are quoting Australia at 85-105 on 1st innings supremacy, which the Trumpet sees as a sell expecting neither side to be leading by many after the first digs. Elsewhere, in the total match runs market, Punter is quoted at 103-110 which is another sell for me. Finally, I see VVS signing off a wonderful career in Australia with a big knock, so recommend a buy on his total match runs quoted at 73-80.
