Rugby Union Betting - Wasps' Odds Improved By Cipriani Return?

England international Danny Cipriani has recovered from a broken leg after a "frustrating" lay-off.

Cipriani, who fractured his fibula, played 40 minutes for Wasps A against Harlequins A, but admitted the time out was testing, Sky Sports News reports.

"After the first four weeks healing the bone it gets a bit frustrating," he remarked, adding that training in the gym every day during his recuperation was equally exasperating.

However, the fly-half claimed that "you just have to keep doing it" to remain match fit and used Jonny Wilkinson as a fine example of an athlete who has had to keep returning from injury.

The 22-year-old is expected to return to the Wasps first team in time for their Amlin Challenge match against Bayonne this weekend.

Wasps are currently 13/2 with bookmaker Paddy Power(Go to Paddy Power ») to win this year's Guinness Premiership, while 888Sport(Go to 888sport ») considers Saracens the favourites to lift the title and is offering odds of 15/8.
