That oss dark moment I tipped last week goes again today at catterick but I can't get in touch with my bro who knows the owner but I do know they want another "touch" before the h capper gets hold of it. They had planned to run it Sunday but the ground was to soft so they pulled it out it has a 6lb penalty though they was saying sat that's not a bother as its still hammering higer marked horses at home. Like I say I not had the word but it has been backed this morn 7/1>11/2! Make of it what you will.....

Cricket has only 3 results win lose or draw.

Football correct scores have numerous combinations so you are not comparing like with like.

If you wanted Owen first goalscorer and Man Utd win the first match of the season they would not have accepted that bet either (as a multiple).

Yes but if a player hits a double century, its more likely that the team will win.

Imagine top runs scorer is 5/1 and the win is 2/1. Obviously if your man hits a double century than the bookies aren't going to give you 2/1 and 10/1 on the double for it are they?

Because one outcome effects the other - and if you want to do a bet like that you'd need to get a price for the correct score in the cricket ie. England by 5 wickets (if you want to be pedantic and compare like with like) and then Matt Prior top run scorer.

You might get 20/1 and 8/1 and they'd work out the price in Ladbrokes trading room (or whoever you bet with)
