The three cricket formats and the most popular competitions
Cricket is played in three main formats — T20, One Day (ODI) and Test. Each format has its own pace and the betting markets are arranged accordingly.
T20: Only 20 overs per side, so every wicket and every big shot directly affects the odds. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL matches are played in this format, and live betting is especially popular here. The T20 World Cup offers a chance to bet while watching the Tigers compete on the international stage.
ODI: Fifty-over matches involve more strategy. There is an opportunity to bet based on a team's mid-innings performance. The betting markets for ODIs are at their broadest during major ICC tournaments.
Test: Conditions shift repeatedly over five days. Pitch, weather and the progress of each innings all affect market prices. A draw is a valid result in Test cricket, so the odds structure is different.
During the BPL season, bajibet lets you bet on matches both before and during play. The number of markets also increases during IPL and international series.
How betting differs in football and other sports
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football, tennis, badminton and kabaddi at bajibet. However, there are some key differences between the betting structure for cricket and football.
Football has three possible outcomes — Team A win, Team B win, and draw. This "1X2" market is the simplest. In limited-overs cricket there is no draw, so the market is split between two possibilities. Test cricket has a draw as a third outcome, similar to football.
Football betting is points-based — how many goals will be scored, who will score first. Cricket betting is broader — markets can cover runs, wickets, overs, boundaries, and even the outcome of a specific delivery. This variety sets cricket apart in the betting space.
Other sports have fewer markets by comparison, but the core principle is the same — understand the odds and bet as part of your entertainment.
The most commonly played cricket betting markets
How each market works — with simple examples.
Match Winner
Which of the two teams will win — this is the most straightforward market. Team A vs Team B in a T20 — if the side you back wins, you collect.
Pre-match and LiveToss Winner
A bet on which team wins the toss before the match starts. The result is entirely independent and has no connection to pitch conditions or form. Odds for both teams are usually close to each other.
Pre-matchTop Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs for a given team — that is what this market is about. The team's batting order and the nature of the pitch influence this market.
Pre-matchTotal Runs Over / Under
A bet on whether the runs scored in an innings or across the whole match will be more (over) or fewer (under) than a set number. Example: over or under a line of 165 runs in the first innings.
Pre-match and LiveMulti Bet
Combining selections from multiple matches multiplies the odds together. All selections must win — if any one loses, the entire bet is lost. More detail in the odds explanation below.
Multi MarketTop Bowler
This market is about which bowler will take the most wickets for a team. The pitch conditions and the bowler's recent form are taken into account.
Pre-MatchThe difference between Decimal, Fractional and American odds
The same price is written in three formats — see the examples below.
Example 1 — Team A wins, bet ৳1,000
If Team A wins, you get back ৳2,500 (profit ৳1,500 + original bet ৳1,000). If Team A loses, you lose ৳1,000.
Example 2 — Team B is the favourite, bet ৳1,000
If Team B wins, you get back ৳1,500 (profit ৳500). American minus odds show how much you need to bet to make a profit of 100.
How odds work in a multi bet
When you combine selections from three separate matches, the odds of each selection are multiplied together. Say the decimal odds of the three selections are 1.40, 1.60 and 1.80 — multiplied together they come to roughly 4.03. So a ৳100 bet returns ৳403 if all three win.
1.40 × 1.60 × 1.80 = 4.03
৳100 × 4.03 = ৳403 — but only if all three selections win. If even one loses, the entire ৳100 is gone.
A multi bet offers a higher potential return, but the risk is also higher. It is a form of entertainment — not a way to earn a steady income. Read about responsible gaming.
When a wicket falls or an over is bowled — how in-play odds change
Live or in-play betting means placing bets while a match is in progress. Odds are recalculated after every wicket, every boundary and every dot ball.
Say Team A loses two wickets in the first five overs. At that point Team A's win odds will lengthen, because their chances are considered to have fallen. Conversely, if Team B's batsman hits two sixes in a row, Team B's odds will shorten.
In ODI and Test matches, the run rate is assessed after the powerplay. If a team falls behind the target, their in-play odds lengthen, and that change is reflected instantly in the live market.
In a T20 match, odds move fastest in the final five overs, when the pressure on the run rate is at its peak. On the bajibet live betting screen you can see real-time updates and make decisions accordingly.
Live betting is even easier on mobile. Keep push notifications turned on in the bajibet App so you never miss a key moment.
Things to keep in mind before starting cricket betting
Understand one market well
Rather than jumping into every market at once, build experience with one first — Match Winner or Total Runs.
Set your budget in advance
Set a separate budget for each match. Never go beyond your total allocation — betting is entertainment, not a source of income.
Keep track of pitch and weather conditions
A batting-friendly pitch raises the chance of a high-scoring game; a spin-friendly pitch makes the Top Bowler market more interesting.
Avoid rushing in live betting
Odds move quickly in in-play betting. Assess the situation rather than acting on impulse.
