Cricket Betting - Swann Fancies England's Odds For SA Tour

Graeme Swann has admitted that England's good form in the warm-up matches of their tour of South Africa have put the team in good spirits ahead of the two Twenty20 contests at the end of this week.

They defeated the Warriors by eight wickets on Sunday in Kimberley (November 8th) and Swann said this has led captain Andrew Strauss to commend their momentum for the rest of their visit.

Swann remarked: "He's (Strauss) put a lot of emphasis on treating them like full internationals and I think we have. Everyone's performed, which is positive."

England's final preparation match is today against South Africa A in a 20-over game before the Twenty20 internationals take place on Friday and Sunday.

Bookmakers are currently claiming a drawn series is the most likely outcome of the limited-overs competitions this weekend, with Totesport(Go to Totesport ») offering odds of 11/10 on this happening.

Skybet(Go to Skybet ») considers an England win the least likely option at 4/1.
