📊 Odds & Betting Value
| Team | Our Model | Market Implied | Odds | Fair Odds |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Garden Route Badgers | 14% | 10.7% | 6.50 | 7.14 |
| Titans | 86% | 89.3% | 1.10 | 1.16 |
Fairly priced on both sides. Titans at 1.10 sit under our fair odds of 1.16, and the Badgers at 6.50 sit under our fair 7.14. With its margin removed, the price makes Titans 89.3% against our 86%. The toss call, bat first at 60%, is where we see the angle. Odds captured on 28 October 2026.
Our model is 3.3 points below the market on Titans. Here's why. Both sides' results this season leave a smaller gap than a price of 1.10 implies. Titans' last pool game, in Paarl on 25 October 2026, ended level on 137, and Boland won the second Super Over. Leo Sadler took 4 for 18 in the Dragons innings on 10 October and 3 for 32 against Northern Cape Heat on 21 October, so the Badgers have a bowler who can take wickets in a cluster. We still make Titans clear favourites, just by a little less than the market does.
