dicebet Cricket Betting — Every Match from BPL and T20 to Test Series
Bet on every format of cricket — from BPL night matches to international Test series. Understand the markets, learn to read odds, and follow live betting.
Cricket's Three Formats and Major Tournaments
Each format has its own pace and strategy. It helps to know a little about each before betting — it makes it much clearer which markets to bet on and how.
T20 — The Fastest Cricket
In this 20-over format, the situation can change with every ball. BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup are the most popular tournaments among Bangladeshi fans. Because the match moves quickly, odds in live markets shift rapidly too.
ODI — The Fifty-Over Contest
The 50-over ODI format tests strategy and patience. The ICC World Cup and tri-series are played in this format. ODI is ideal for over-by-over betting, as separate markets are available for each powerplay and middle-over phase.
Test — The Five-Day Challenge
In a five-day Test match there are three possible outcomes — win, draw or loss — which sets it apart from the other two formats. When Bangladesh Tigers play a series, Test betting becomes a topic of particular interest.
Football and Other Sports
dicebet is not limited to cricket. In football, each match is 90 minutes with three possible results — win, draw or loss. Handicap betting and corner markets are more common in football than in cricket.
In individual sports like tennis or badminton there are only two outcomes, and set-by-set live betting is very popular. While cricket offers innings- and over-based markets, football has goal-based markets that are equally engaging.

5 Popular Markets in Cricket
There are different types of bets available in every match. Below is a brief overview of the most commonly used markets.
🏅 Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which team will win. In T20 and ODI there are only two outcomes (win or loss); in Test there are three (win, loss, draw).
🪙 Toss Betting
Before the match starts, you can bet on which team will win the toss. Since each team has an equal chance, the odds are usually close to each other.
🏏 Top Batsman
Bet on which batter will score the most runs. Odds in this market are generally higher, since you have to pick one player from many.
📊 Total Runs Over/Under
The bookie sets a specific number (e.g. 160). If you think the total runs will be more than 160, bet 'Over'; if you think it will be less, bet 'Under'.
🔗 Multi Bet
Combining the results of multiple matches gives a much higher combined odds. However, if even one bet is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
⚡ First Over Runs
Bet on how many runs will be scored in the first over of an innings. This market is popular in T20, since a lot of runs can come in the very first over.
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds
The same price can be written in three ways — all three convey the same information, just in a different format. Decimal format is the most common at dicebet.
| Format | Value | How to Read |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Total return = Bet × 3.00 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 |
| American | +200 | ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake |
Example 1 — Bet on Team A to win (stake ৳200):
Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. If Team A wins, return is ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 stake back). If Team A loses, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Favourite Team B (stake ৳200):
Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400 (American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100). A ৳200 bet returns ৳250 (৳50 profit).
Odds Shift When Wickets Fall — How Live Betting Works
Live or in-play betting means placing bets while a match is in progress. In cricket this is especially dynamic, as every wicket or big shot immediately changes the balance of the match.
When the batting team loses a wicket, their odds of winning increase and the bowling team's odds shorten. Multiple wickets during the powerplay can cause a much larger shift.
As overs decrease, the pressure of the required run rate builds. In the death overs, if the required run rate is high, the batting team's odds increase further.
In T20, live odds can change within seconds. Take time to understand the situation before deciding — do not rush.
Markets may temporarily close during a drinks break or rain delay. When play resumes, new odds are offered.

Live Betting Checklist
- Get a basic idea of both teams' recent performance before the match starts.
- Pitch conditions and weather affect the match result — keep this in mind when live betting.
- Check the odds right after a big shot or a wicket falls — you may find good value at that moment.
- Bet within a budget set in advance — live betting moves fast, so keeping a clear head is important.
- If a cash out option is available, exiting early based on the situation can also be a sensible move.
Some Tips for Staying Informed in Cricket Betting
Decide how much you will spend before each betting session. Stop when you reach that limit — betting should be treated as entertainment.
For beginners, starting with the match winner market is the easiest approach. Placing too many different types of bets at once can get confusing.
The odds structure for T20 and Test are different. In Test, the possibility of a draw means odds are split across three outcomes — keep that in mind.
Even if the odds look high on a multi bet, the risk is also higher. One wrong bet and you lose the whole thing. So keep the stake smaller on this type of bet.
Never treat betting as a source of income. It is entertainment. To learn more about responsible betting, read the Responsible Gaming page.
