India Vs England 2006 ODI Series

[icyman]

The wash out isn't helping me. : Is the vCash betted on the 5th ODI going to be handed back?

No it's not.
The wash out has been considered to be a part of the win on behalf of the those who placed bets on :
England to avoid white-wash.

No it did not. If u betted on a draw, you would win hell a lot of points...

 

[gaurav_indian]

I won 500 Vcash on a draw.

 

[cricket_lover]

i won a 1000..wish i put more money into that.

 

[gaurav_indian]

I thought I should put my whole money on that.But settled with only 50 vcash.

I guess I have to explain some things then:

First of all a draw only happens only in Tests. There isn't such a thing in ODI like that. In ODI only a match can end in a win, loss or a tie. And a tie is when teams are on 256-8 and 256-4. A wash out in ODI leads to abandonment

Previously with wash out games money has been handed back, so why not now?

Aussie1st also explained it here: http://www.planetcricket.org/forums/showthread.php?t=19572

In this the abandonment was included: http://www.planetcricket.org/forums/showthread.php?t=19490

From which I guess someone didn't know about this and clicked on draw while vBookie's like this go in the abandon section: http://www.planetcricket.org/forums/vbookie.php?type=ABANDONED&selecttype=Go

I was talking about the seperate 5th ODI betting. Not the one where you could bet if India would whitewash England.

I didn't click the draw button, I was all happy about my big winnings from the Whitewash one that I forgot the other vBookie thing.

Sorry guys I'll be taking the money off from those that won in the draw and the rest will be getting theirs back.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Yeah, I knew you didn't click on the draw. Since you've already dealt with abandonments before. Anyway I need the same players to perform, who performed in the 3rd ODI, since that lifted a lot of places up back then. The 4th ODI dropped me.

And Flintoff didn't do much with the bat as I expected. Having Pathan as captain would have been better now.

 

[cricket_lover]

i agree, Pathan would have been a better captain, pressure on Flintoff to perform.

 

[aussie1st]

Pathan seems to be the number 3 batter these days so that is a huge bonus. I knew he would be at at 3 at some stage hence I made him captain. Hopefully more of the same for the next 2 games.

Oh and I was wondering who stolen my Vcash anyways no problem.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Flintoff won't play, so that's not good news for me.

 

[gaurav_indian]

Don't worry almost everyone has got Flintoff in their team. :cool:

 

[cricket_lover]

it'll hurt people who have him as the captain...and i'm one of them...

Well its getting worse now, seeing that Flintoff and Dravid both wont be playing these matches.
