Southern Brave to Win (-159)

Odds available at Betfair at time of publishing

I'm picking Southern Brave to win against Birmingham Phoenix. The Rose Bowl has seen a lot of runs in past games, averaging around 249 total runs, which means the conditions are great for batting. Southern Brave is playing at home, and they usually perform well there. While nothing is guaranteed in sports, our numbers suggest they have a good chance to take this match. Just remember, anything can happen in cricket, so enjoy the game! It was priced at -159 when we wrote this, so a $10 bet returns $16.30 if it lands. The bookmakers have this as a slight favourite. Our model leans this way without loving it. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back it. And if this one does not feel right to you, skipping it is a perfectly good move.

That is how our model reads Southern Brave v Birmingham Phoenix. Prices move, so check the price at your bookmaker before you back anything. And if a game does not feel right to you, the strongest move is to skip it -- there is another one tomorrow.
