Cricket : WARNER TO HEAD AUSSIE BATTING IN BRISBANE

Australia’s latest batting sensation David Warner is being tipped to continue his brutal run scoring exploits when the Aussies line-up against South Africa in tonight’s second Twenty20 international in Brisbane.

Warner is the talk of Australian sport after his brutal knock of 89 from 43 balls two night’s ago at the MCG, and Betfair customers have rallied behind the New South Wales left-hander to be the leading Australian batsman once more.

The 22-year-old is a resounding $4.60 favourite to top the Aussie run scorers at the Gabba tonight, after initially trading at $4.20.

Australian captain Ricky Ponting is the second favourite at $5.00 with Betfair, fractionally ahead of Shaun Marsh at $5.20

Warner’s influence has also seen Australia installed as short priced $1.48 favourites to clean sweep the Twenty20 series. South Africa will make three changes to their side and a despised $3.00 outsiders.
