The 1st Test of the Ashes 2021/22 series gets underway on Wednesday, and Grosvenor are getting in on the action! Bet £10.00+ on any Ashes market, and Grosvenor will give us a £2.00 free bet each time an England Batsman scores 50 runs in an innings. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £7.33 and here’s how…
Key terms

We can calculate our lay stakes using my Matched Betting Calculator…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £9.51…
Place £10.00 on Australia @ 2.15 = Potential profit of £11.50
Lay £9.51 on Australia @ 2.28 = Potential liability of £12.17
Outcomes
Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…
| Outcome | Grosvenor | Smarkets | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| Australia win | + £11.50 | – £12.17 | £0.67 loss |
| Australia lose or draw | – £10.00 | + £9.31 | £0.69 loss |
So, no matter the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.69 in qualifying for our potential free bets.
Free bets
We’ll receive a £2.00 free bet each time an England Batsman scores 50 runs in a 1st Test innings. Free bets will be credited within 24 hours and valid for 4 days.
If an English Batsman scores 50 runs five times, we’ll receive £10.00 in free bets.
Using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to convert our free bets into 80% cash, so £8.00. If we take into account our minimum qualifying loss of £0.67, this gives us a potential profit of £7.33 on this Grosvenor offer!
* Australia won the 1st Test, with two England Batsmen scoring 50 runs in an innings, resulting in £2.53 profit on this Grosvenor offer. *
