THE PLAY: Away +154
After dominating the T20 series, and this opposition in the ICC Trophy, it is understandable that New Zealand would start hot favourites in the ODIs. However this overlooks the squad details. New Zealand are very much under-strength, with Tom Latham now withdrawn. Compared to that excellent side which reached the ICC Trophy final, they've also lost Ravindra, Conway, Williamson, Henry, Phillips and Jamieson. (In other words, the key players). Pakistan, meanwhile, are close to full strength and surely underestimated at these odds.

Consultant Bio
I’ve been gambling literally every day since childhood. After discovering soccer coupons aged 13, I became the school bookie. At 18, I worked at the dog track and in betting shops. I would either bet or lay bets on anything from sports to next song would play next on the radio.
It was non-stop, crazy, fun, indisciplined, until I went to uni aged 25. Then I realised the value of specialisation and prioritising. From there, I focused and mastered a few niche areas - cricket, golf, snooker, politics and in 2003, gambling became my main living.
For two decades, I’ve also been an analyst covering my areas for various outlets, most notably Betfair. I helped pioneer political betting in the UK and USA, analysing it for big political outlets such as Politico and on TV, before US elections became the biggest betting event on Earth. In 2020, I was Betfair's US Election Ambassador.
Since 2019, I've been a co-host of Betfair's cricket podcast, Cricket Only Bettor. Since 2021, I've combined all those roles with being a senior oddsmaker for BetOnline.
