Review Conclusion
I originally set out to review this service for 12 weeks but soon realised the lack of matches and therefore selections meant it needed longer. I decided to give it 24 weeks to get a decent number of selections to record.
Banking 7.2 points profit was nice but not enough over such a long time to add the Cricket Betting Tipster to my recommended list. I will therefore add this service to my list of on the fence reviews and may revisit it in the near future.
