Cricket Formats and Tournaments — What Kind of Bets for Each?

To understand cricket betting, you first need to know which format is being played, because each format has a different pace and odds are built differently for each.

T20: The fastest format. Results are decided in just 20 overs, so odds change quickly. BPL and IPL are the biggest celebrations of this format — these two tournaments are the most talked-about among cricket fans in Bangladesh. The T20 World Cup is also of special interest to Bangladeshi fans, as the Tigers always play competitive cricket in it.

ODI (One Day International): This 50-over format is a test of strategy. A lot can change between the first and second innings. The biggest ICC one-day tournaments offer the widest variety of betting markets.

Test Cricket: In this five-day format, pitch conditions, weather and batting order play a major role. A draw is a possible outcome in Tests, so there are three types of odds — Team A wins, Team B wins, draw.

banglabet supports betting on all three of these formats. Markets for football, tennis and other sports are also available, as discussed in the sections below.

How Is Betting on Football and Other Sports Different?

Beyond cricket, football is also a popular betting option at banglabet. You can bet on match winner, number of goals and handicap markets in the Premier League, Champions League or local tournaments. Draws are very common in football, so a three-way market (Team A win, Team B win, draw) is available for every match — something absent in T20 cricket.

Sports like tennis, badminton or kabaddi do not have as wide a range of markets as cricket, but the main bets — match winner and set winner — are generally available. In cricket, over-by-over betting is possible; in football, the equivalent opportunity comes after half-time or when the situation shifts following a red card.

For those interested in card games too, the Tongits Go betting experience is a completely different world — one where skill and strategy are what matter most.

Popular Betting Markets — What Can You Bet on in Each?

Cricket betting offers many types of markets. Here is a brief introduction to seven popular markets:

Match Winner

A straight bet on which team will win the match. For example, if you back Team A at the available odds and Team A wins, you get the payout; if they lose, your bet is lost.

Easiest to Understand

Toss Winner

A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. Since both teams have equal chances, odds are usually close.

Quick Result

Top Batsman

A bet on which batter will score the most runs for their team. The team's batting lineup and pitch conditions have a big influence on this market.

Individual Performance

Total Runs Over/Under

A prediction on whether the total runs in a match will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. Wickets, pitch and weather directly affect this market.

Stats-Based

Multi Bet

Combining multiple markets into a single bet. If all selections are correct the payout is much higher, but if even one is wrong the entire bet is lost.

High Returns

Handicap and Innings Betting

A virtual advantage or disadvantage is given to one team to create balance. How many runs will be scored in the first innings is also a separate market.

Three Types of Odds — Decimal, Fractional and American

There are three main ways odds are written on betting sites. All three express the same information — only the format differs.

Format Team A Win (example) Team B Win (example)
Decimal 2.50 1.50
Fractional 3/2 1/2
American +150 −200

Example 1 — Team A (underdog): Place ৳200 on Team A and if they win, the total return is ৳500 — meaning ৳300 profit plus your original ৳200 back. If Team A loses, you lose the full ৳200. Decimal 2.50, Fractional 3/2 and American +150 all mean the same outcome.

Example 2 — Team B (favourite): Team B's winning odds are Decimal 1.50, Fractional 1/2, American −200. Place ৳200 on Team B and if they win, the total return is ৳300 — profit of ৳100. American minus odds show how much stake is needed to win ৳100; −200 means you need to stake ৳200 to win ৳100.

Decimal format is the most straightforward — multiply your stake by the odds to get the total return. banglabet shows decimal odds by default.

When a Wicket Falls, Odds Change — Live In-Play Betting

Live or in-play betting means placing bets in real time while a match is in progress. In cricket, every over, every wicket and every boundary affects the odds.

Say Team B is batting and two quick wickets fall early. Team B's odds to win will lengthen and Team A's odds will shorten, because the situation has moved in Team A's favour. This change happens within seconds.

In T20, with a big batter at the crease in the final five overs, odds swing much more sharply. In ODI, the situation tends to be relatively stable through the mid-game phase. In Test cricket, fading light at the end of the day or a deteriorating pitch can bring big shifts in odds.

Live betting requires quick decisions, which is where the banglabet mobile app helps — you can place bets from anywhere.

Some Useful Tips for Cricket Betting

  • Start with just one market. Get familiar with the match winner market first, then move to other markets gradually. Betting on too many markets at once makes it hard to keep track.
  • Set a budget. Decide how much you will bet each session before you start. Betting is a form of entertainment — placing large bets to chase losses is not the right approach.
  • Understand the format before betting. The same team's chances can differ between T20 and Test. Check pitch reports and weather beforehand.
  • Be careful with multi bets. Three selections with decimal odds 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.70 = 3.81 — a ৳100 bet returns ৳381, but if even one selection is wrong you lose the full ৳100.
  • Play responsibly. Betting is for enjoyment. If you ever feel it is getting hard to stay in control, read the responsible gaming guidelines.
  • Know the rules. If you have any doubts about bonus terms or the rules of a particular market, check the FAQ section for common questions or ask in the 24/7 live chat.

Common Questions About Cricket Betting

T20 and ODI matches generally have the most markets, as these formats attract larger audiences and produce results quickly. Test matches offer match winner, draw, first innings lead and wicket markets. The most markets are active during BPL or IPL seasons.

Yes, odds change in real time during live betting. They shift when a wicket falls, an over ends or a big shot is hit. In some cases betting may be briefly suspended at key moments in a match — this is normal.

In a standard multi bet (such as an accumulator), if even one selection is wrong you lose the entire bet — there is no partial payout. However, some platforms offer a cash out option, which lets you withdraw your bet partially while the match is still in progress.

The toss is a completely random event — both teams have statistically equal chances. So odds are usually close to 1.90 to 1.95 for both sides. The small difference comes from the platform's margin.

If a match is abandoned or has no result, bets are generally voided and the stake is returned. If a result is determined by the Duckworth-Lewis method, that result stands. Check banglabet's terms and conditions for specific rules.
