Cricket's three formats and how betting differs
Bangladeshi fans are familiar with all three cricket formats — T20, One Day (ODI) and Test. Betting works differently in each format because the pace of play and range of possible outcomes vary.
In T20, with only twenty overs, odds shift quickly. A wicket falling or a big over can move the market in an instant. ODI offers fifty overs, giving more room for tactical play — top batsman and over/under markets are more popular here. In Test cricket, with five days of play, the pitch, weather and possibility of a draw make the range of betting options the most varied.
| Format | Duration | Betting characteristics |
|---|---|---|
| T20 | 20 overs | Fast-moving odds, active live markets |
| ODI | 50 overs | Batsman and run-target markets are popular |
| Test | 5 days | Three outcomes including a draw, varied markets |
BPL, IPL and international matches — what kind of betting does each tournament offer?
BPL
The Bangladesh Premier League is the T20 tournament local cricket fans know best. The franchise cricket format means many markets open per match — you can bet at every stage from match winner to toss.
IPL
India's Indian Premier League is one of the biggest T20 leagues in the world. High-scoring matches make total runs over/under and top batsman markets particularly attractive.
T20 World Cup and international series
Bangladesh bettors have the most interest in Bangladesh Tigers matches at the ICC T20 World Cup and bilateral series. The number of available markets also increases noticeably during major tournaments.
Football and other sports — how they differ from cricket
Alongside cricket, football is a popular betting category in Bangladesh. The key difference between cricket and football markets is in the number of outcomes: limited-overs cricket matches generally have two results — win or lose. Football has three possibilities — home win, draw and away win — so the odds are calculated differently.
Handicap markets and both-teams-to-score markets are common in football. Cricket has detailed markets such as how many wickets will fall or how many runs will be scored in a specific over, which are generally not available in football.
Alongside cricket and football, 33bmw also offers markets on several other sports. Beyond sports betting, 33bmw Casino has live casino and classic table games to enjoy.
Cricket's 6 popular markets and how they work
The rules for each market are slightly different. Below are the six most common markets, each with a brief example.
Match Winner
A straightforward question — which team will win the match? Say Team A vs Team B. If you bet on Team B and Team B wins, your bet is successful.
Good starting pointToss Market
A bet on the toss result before the match starts. Pick Team A or Team B — whichever you think will win the toss. This has no connection to the match result.
Pre-matchTop Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in the match? This market lets you pick the highest scorer within a specific team or across the whole match.
Skill marketTotal Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a runs line — for example 160. You decide whether the team's total runs will be above that number (over) or below it (under).
Runs marketMulti Bet
Combining results from multiple matches multiplies the odds together. Three selections at decimal 1.50, 1.60 and 1.80 give a combined odds of 4.32 — so ৳100 returns ৳432, but if any one selection loses, the full ৳100 is gone.
Multi BetFirst Wicket Market
Which batsman will be dismissed first, or at what score will the first wicket of a team's innings fall — this detailed market is unique to cricket.
SpecialtyDecimal, Fractional and American Odds — three formats
A bet's price can be written three ways — decimal (e.g. 2.25), fractional (5/4) and American (+125). All three express the same information, just in different formats. Reading through these three before placing a bet in the 33bmw Bet section will help you understand the odds.
Example 1 — one bet, three formats
Team A to win, ৳200 stake:
Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125
If you win, you get back ৳450 (৳250 profit + ৳200 original stake); if you lose, you lose ৳200.
Example 2 — favourite's odds
Team B to win (favourite):
Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200
American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳200 stake the return is ৳300 (৳100 profit).
Decimal format is generally the simplest — the total return is shown directly. Fractional is the traditional format. In American odds, a minus (-) means favourite and a plus (+) means underdog.
In-play betting — how odds move when wickets fall and overs pass
Live or in-play betting means placing bets while a match is in progress. In cricket this is especially dynamic, because every wicket, every big over and every review can shift the odds.
Say Team A is batting and two wickets fall in the very first over. At that moment Team A's odds to win will rise sharply (meaning betting on Team A becomes riskier) and Team B's odds will shorten. Conversely, if Team A scores 30–35 runs in two consecutive big overs, Team B's odds to win will lengthen.
Decisions in in-play markets need to be made quickly. The end of the powerplay, a dropping run rate in the middle overs, or a batting change in the final five overs — each event affects market prices.

Some practical tips for cricket betting
- Choose markets based on the format. Match winner and total runs markets are popular in T20; session-based markets are available in Test cricket.
- Keep the number of selections low in a multi bet. Adding more than three selections raises the combined odds, but one loss means losing everything. Treat multi bets as a form of entertainment.
- Do not rush in live betting. In-play markets move fast — watch how the match is flowing before making a decision.
- Set a budget beforehand. Decide how much you will stake each session before you start. Betting is entertainment — it is not a way to earn income.
- Stick to one odds format. Decimal, fractional or American — use whichever you are comfortable with; switching between them can cause confusion.
- Read the responsible betting guide. To learn more about betting limits and protections, see the responsible gaming guide.
Keep in mind
Cricket betting is an entertainment activity. There is no guarantee of winning — every bet carries the risk of loss. Bet within your means and do not chase losses by placing more bets.
