What the expert says..
Former favourite Stuart Broad drifts slightly to 2/1 to win the SPOTY award this year
Former England cricketer Stuart Broad has been favourite ever since he announced his retirement from all forms of cricket during the last Ashes test this summer.
In that Ashes series, Broad became one of only five players to take 600 test wickets moving him firmly into the legend category if he wasn't cemented there before.
Broad put in a heroic display on the final day of the fifth test to take the last two wickets and wrap up a win for England to draw the series.

Frankie Dettori was the shortest price at one point but has since drifted after retirement U-turn
Frankie Dettori has been the shortest price in the market for a period of 4 or 5 months this year when he confirmed he would be retiring from Horse Racing.
Dettori has since done a massive U-turn by confirming he will continue to be a professional jockey by continuing his career over in America.
The 52-year-old will now unlikely be a winner of the award in what could well have been a shoe-in if he went ahead with retirement.
