After winning their two warm up matches, England go into their ODI opener against West Indies on Friday. This is a three-match series for the tourists, and Eoin Morgan’s tourists are favourites to take the series. They are a long 1/4 odds on price to actually go and win the ODI Series, which doesn’t offer much meat on the bone for punters, so it is over to the Series Correct Score market at Ladbrokes where you can find some better value.
England are 11/8 to win the series 3-0 and that’s not a bad offering really, but England are missing players like Alex Hales, David Willey and Reece Topley (plus more) who are all on the sidelines. So the tourists won’t be at their strongest, which is which is why the 3-0 series return is a longer price perhaps than it would have been. A more moderate England 2-1 correct score in the series is running at a price of 5/4 with Ladbrokes.
West Indies are 3/1 outsiders to win the series and are as big as 20/1 to make the clean sweep of the tourists over the three games. This is an important build up for England ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy in June and they will want to lay some big groundwork for that, even if it is through some of their back up players. Having quality in depth is never a bad thing.
Joe Root and Jason Roy and 5/2 joint favourites to be England’s top run scorer in the series, while Adil Rashid is 3/1 favourite to pick up the most wickets for the tourists. England are 4/11 odds-on favourites to win the opening match of the series on Friday with the hosts at 9/4.
