England v Pakistan First Test Odds: England Can Stifle Resurgent Pakistan

England has been made favourites when they take on Pakistan in the first of four tests starting this Thursday at Trent Bridge. Boylesports have made them 5/6 odds on, with Pakistan at 3/1 and the draw an 11/4 option, the same Bookmakers also makes England 8/15 favourites to win the series outright, while only giving the tourists a 3/1 chance of doing the same. A drawn series can be backed at 9/2.

Pakistan come into the matched clearly buoyed by their unexpected drawn series against Australia, made possible by a stirring second test performance in the wake of what most plaudits considered a disaster for them after Shahid Afridi had resigned the captaincy after losing the first test. It is great credit to them that the reverse happened.

England v Pakistan from Trent Bridge LIVE on Sky Sports 1 from Thursday, 29th July at 1100.

Trent Bridge might be the perfect pitch to begin the series on too, having achieved results in each of the last six tests played here and being conducive for both pace and spin bowling. In fact Boylesports has made Jimmy Anderson and Stuart Broad (on home soil) as joint favourites at 5/2 to be England’s top bowlers in the match, while the more astute punter will not want to miss out on the 7/2 being offered about Graeme Swann, the attack minded off spinner, who has been the England hero time and time again since making his England breakthrough. For Pakistan it is the left arm quick bowling of Mohammad Aamer who has caught the ‘punters eye’ he is as short as 2/1 to be Pakistan’s top bowler in the test.

New Pakistan captain, Salman Butt, will be eager to prove that second test win against Australia was no fluke meaning that punters can expect him to lead from the front. He is a good choice, we think, to be top batsman for Pakistan over the two innings and we would be very tempted to back him at 3/1, also with Boylesports. to achieve that.

England v Pakistan 1st Test Odds Comparison

It has to be said that the confidence within the England teams in all forms of the game, these days, is at a very encouraging high. The team is now full of players who are hungry for success and who are prepared to battle for their places in the team. Skipper, Andrew Strauss along with coach; Andy Flower, are working really well together and we believe that the English spirit will be stronger than the resurgent Pakistani’s. We take England to win this First Test, but accept that it may take a huge effort to do so; a victory will mean that at least one of the front line batsmen will need to make a big score. The betting on the top England Batsman for this First Test is as follows:

  • 3/1 Andrew Strauss
  • 100/30 Kevin Pietersen
  • 4/1 Alistair Cook
  • 9/2 Jonathan Trott
  • 13/2 Paul Collingwood
  • 9/1 Eoin Morgan
