I think that New Zealand are a serious shout of winning this World Cup and the $9 on offer for them to do so is major overs.
They will open their campaign against Sri Lanka at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff and should be recording the first win of their campaign. Sri Lanka are in a rebuilding phase and simply do not have the firepower and spin capabilities that they once boasted, and it looks like being a baptism of fire for them when they stop out opposite the Black Caps.
Tips:
Trent Boult Top New Zealand Wicket Taker @ $3.50
Kane Williamson New Zealand Top Runscorer @ $4
The Aussies will launch their campaign against minnows Afghanistan in Bristol tonight and they should be walking away comfortable victors. There is something seriously wrong if they don’t.
I’m expecting a big tournament from both David Warner and Steve Smith, but I think that the former in particularly really needs to put his best foot forward from the outset and I’m keen to take the $4 that is on offer for him to top score for the Aussies. Given he’s an opener, he’ll be given every opportunity to notch a big one.
The swinging conditions in England tend to suit Mitchell Starc and he looks over the odds to take the most wickets for Australia at $3.50.

David Warner Top Australian Runscorer @ $4
Mitchell Starc Top Australian Wicket Taker @ $3.50
