betbet Cricket Betting — Bet on every Tigers match
betbet offers betting markets across all three formats — T20, ODI and Test. From BPL to ICC tournaments, live odds to multi bets — all in one place.
Cricket's Three Formats and Major Tournaments
One of the most interesting aspects of cricket betting is that each format creates different betting opportunities. T20 matches produce a result within a few hours — every over and every wicket can shift the odds. In ODI, both teams bat for 50 overs, giving more time to analyse each innings. Test cricket runs over five days — pitch conditions, weather and batting line-ups all factor in, making the betting calculation the most complex of the three.
In terms of tournaments, BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) is the most popular among Bangladeshi fans. The IPL also sees very active betting markets each season. Bangladesh Tigers matches at the ICC T20 World Cup and ODI World Cup naturally attract the most bets. betbet offers multiple betting markets for matches across all these tournaments.
Betting on Football and Other Sports
Alongside cricket, betbet also offers football betting. Football has an extra possible result — a draw — so the odds and market types differ from cricket. The main market here is 1×2 (Home Win, Draw, Away Win). Since cricket has no draw, bets are placed directly between two teams.
Other sports such as Kabaddi, Tennis or Hockey generally have fewer betting markets, but odds in these sports can sometimes be more attractive because the market is less competitive. However, cricket and football offer the most markets and live betting options.

Popular Betting Markets — Where to Bet in Cricket
Multiple types of betting markets are open for each cricket match. Below is an introduction to seven popular markets.
Match Winner
A straightforward bet on which of the two teams will win. Pick Team A or Team B. There is no draw in T20 or ODI, so the decision is simple.
Easiest MarketToss Winner
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. This is a completely separate market — it has no connection to the match result.
Match-Independent MarketTop Batsman
A market on who will score the most runs for a given team. This is an innings-based market with separate odds for each innings.
Skill-Based MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
betbet sets a specific runs line. You bet on whether the total runs in the match or a single innings will be above or below that line.
Line BettingMulti Bet
Bets from multiple matches are combined into a single slip. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply and the return increases significantly — but one wrong selection loses the entire bet.
Higher Return PotentialMethod of Dismissal
A bet on how a specific batsman will be dismissed — bowled, caught, run out. This market is more commonly available in live betting.
Live MarketFirst Over Runs
A bet on how many runs will be scored in the first over of the match — over/under or an exact number. In T20, the powerplay overs carry the most weight in this market.
Powerplay MarketOdds in Three Formats — Read and Understand
betbet generally displays odds in decimal format, but it is worth understanding fractional and American formats too, as all three are used in different places.
| Format | Odds for Team A to win | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Total return including stake. A ৳500 bet returns ৳1,500. |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked. On a ৳500 bet, profit is ৳1,000, total return including stake is ৳1,500. |
| American | +200 | Plus means profit on a ৳100 bet. On a ৳500 bet, profit is ৳1,000, total return is ৳1,500. |
Example 1 — Bet on Team A to Win (৳500)
Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. If the bet wins, ৳1,500 is returned (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake). If the bet loses, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — Favourite Team B (৳500)
Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200. American minus odds show how much stake is needed to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳500 bet, the return is ৳750 (৳250 profit).
All three formats express the same value — the difference is only in how they are written.
Live In-Play Betting — Odds Shift on Every Wicket
The defining feature of live cricket betting is that odds update with every event in the match. When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds can rise immediately — because their chance of winning has decreased. If five wickets fall in quick succession, a team that started as the favourite can suddenly become the underdog.
Odds move constantly as the run rate per over changes. Markets fluctuate the most in the last five overs of a T20 match. Losing quick wickets during the powerplay or hitting a big six — both show up in the odds right away.
In live betting, decisions need to be made before the market closes, so you have to think a bit faster. Having a clear understanding of betting markets before the match makes placing in-play bets easier. The betbet App shows live scores and updated odds, which is useful for in-play betting.
Practical Advice for Cricket Betting
Betting is for entertainment — there is no way to guarantee a profit. The advice below will help you bet responsibly.
- Set a budget first. Decide how much money you will spend on betting beforehand and do not go beyond it. Placing more bets to recover losses is not a good habit.
- Bet with an understanding of the format. The influence of pitch, weather and team strength differs between T20 and Test matches. Keep the match type in mind before choosing a market.
- Focus on one market. Start with either Match Winner or Over/Under. Spreading bets across many markets at once makes them hard to track.
- Be careful with multi bets. Combining multiple matches in a multi bet does increase the return, but one wrong selection loses the whole bet. Think carefully before adding more than three selections.
- Avoid rushing in live betting. Odds change quickly, which can make it feel like you need to decide immediately. But in most cases, waiting a minute or two still leaves the market available.
- Play responsibly. If betting starts to feel like pressure rather than enjoyment, take a break. Read our Responsible Gaming page for more information.
