TAB Sportsbet punters launched straight into the Adam Gilchrist-led All Stars to win tonight's Twenty20 match against Australia. "The first bet taken on the match was $5000 on the All Stars at $2.80 which was quickly followed by another bet of $2000 at those odds," TAB Sportsbet's Glenn Munsie said.
Gilchrist heads the most-runs market for the All Stars at $4, with Australia's Matthew Hayden at $4.50.
Sportingbet Australia has installed Australia as $1.40 favourites to win the first Test against New Zealand at the Gabba, despite Ricky Ponting's men struggling in India.
"Australia were outplayed in India but will be a lot stronger at home and New Zealand are not in the same class as the Indians," Sportingbet boss Michael Sullivan said.
