Betting notes

How to bet on NZ vs IND 1st ODI

Four angles worth weighing before you place a bet on this fixture.

  1. 01

    50-over games are won in the middle. Most of the liquidity sits in overs 11-40 and the final ten, which is where New Zealand (285-335) and India (302-350) will either hit or miss their projections.

  2. 02

    India go in as clear 63% favourites. Backing them early is simple, but the better value often comes from laying them in-play if New Zealand win the first hour.

  3. 03

    The previous result is already in India's price. If you think the market has overreacted, the exchange lets you take the other side at 37%.

  4. 04

    Powerplay247 is an exchange, so you can back or lay every market on New Zealand vs India. You can also trade out mid-match to lock in part of a profit.
