Windies at last?

A dazzling debut display by Dwayne Smith and determined knocks by Ramnaresh Sarwan and Brian Lara helped guide the Windies to a draw in the third Test at Newlands. As West Indies had lost their other seven Tests on South African soil, the Cape Town stalemate must have come as welcome relief to the injury-hit tourists. Sporting Index still make South Africa firm favourites for the fourth and final Test, but having built a foundation, can the West Indies give them a surprise at Supersport Park in Centurion?

Jacques Kallis - he may not be blitzing the Windies with his bowling, but his performance with the bat is a different matter. He has hit centuries in each of the three Tests to date, so it could be worth "buying" his batsman's runs at 97, ie betting that he will score more than 97 runs altogether, over both innings.

Ramnaresh Sarwan - after scoring just 13 runs in the first three innings of the series, he has upped his game in recent matches. Including his 114 at Kingsmead, he has scored over 200 runs during his last three visits to the crease. Could he and Brian Lara provide a crucial middle-order partnership? You can "buy" Lara's runs at 110, but "buying" Sarwan's at 77 over two innings could be equally tempting.

When asked about the series, Sporting Index's Senior Cricket Trader said: "South Africa are 2-0 up after three Tests, and have dominated the series, especially with the bat. The West Indies are heavily reliant on Lara to provide resistance. Expect lots of runs, especially from the home team ..." Commenting on Sporting's first-class service, he added: "We will be In-Running throughout the Test, including betting on Win Indices, Batsman Runs and Team Runs."

Sporting Index have also produced a market called Volcano, in which they quote South Africa to score 40 to 60 more runs than the visitors. If you think that they will give the Windies a walloping, you would "buy" at 60, although if you think it will be a lot closer than this then you would "sell" at 40.

In oither words, for this game you have a simple choice to make for Volcano:

Will South Africa score 60 runs MORE than the Windies?

or

Will South Africa beat the West Indies by less than 40 runs, or even lose the match?
