South Africa v India and England v Zimbabwe, Wednesday 10th October

Wednesday sees an exciting African One Day Cricket double-header, as England take on Zimbabwe and India play South Africa. Ladbrokes has a range of match and special bets for these two games.

South Africa v India: Click here to bet

The Summer Spice triangular series is providing thrills a-plenty, with three hundreds scored in the first match between India and South Africa. Ganguly, Tendulkar and Gary Kirsten all passed the century mark with breathtaking hundreds. Tendulkar is 4-1 to repeat the feat in the next match against South Africa, with his captain Ganguly 5-1. Perhaps it's Dravid's turn – he is priced at 9-1 to join the hundred club in Wednesday's game.

If you think the match will turn on spin, you can bet on Kumble or Harbhajan Singh taking three wickets or more. Kumble is priced at 7-2, while Harbhajan is at 5-1.

England have already won the series against Zimbabwe, but will be keen to use the remaining games to further boost morale. Bulawayo is the venue for the fourth game in the series.

England are again favourites, priced at 1/4. Top England batsman odds are also available, with openers Knight and Trescothick top of the tree at 3/1 and 7/2 respectively. Perhaps England will give Owais Shah an outing this time – he is priced at 8-1 to be top England scorer in the fourth match.

Unsurprisingly, Andy Flower is tipped to be the top Zimbabwe batsman at 3/1. His breathtaking century in the last match was a class above his teammates. If you want to bet against Flower, other interesting prices are two talented young players who have shown signs of playing a major role:- Hamilton Mazakadza (6/1) and Dion Ebrahim (7/1).
