Three formats of cricket and the competitions Bangladeshis love

T20 Cricket

This 20-over format moves at the fastest pace. In tournaments like BPL and IPL, a single six or a wicket can change everything in an instant — and that shift is reflected immediately in the betting markets.

BPL IPL T20 WC

ODI Cricket

This 50-over format blends strategy and patience. ODI matches in the ICC World Cup, Asia Cup and bilateral series draw a huge response from Bangladeshi fans. The tactical play in the middle overs adds more variety to the betting markets.

Asia Cup ICC WC

Test Cricket

In this five-day format, pitch behaviour, weather and team composition all play a major role. The Bangladesh Tigers have made significant progress in Test cricket in recent years. The range of markets around innings performance gives Test betting its own distinct character.

Test Series Bilateral

In Bangladesh, cricket is more than a game — its pull is felt in the alleys of Dhaka and on fields across the country. BPL brings eight domestic teams together every winter, and during the international season, IPL and T20 World Cup matches are talked about everywhere. At 7bet you can bet on matches from all these competitions across a range of markets.

7bet football and other sports betting markets

Betting on football and other sports — what makes them different

Beyond cricket, football is also very popular in Bangladesh. The English Premier League, La Liga and UEFA Champions League generate excitement throughout the country. However, the betting structure for cricket and football differs — cricket can end in a draw (in Tests) or cannot (T20/ODI), while football always has three possible outcomes. This means the odds are calculated differently as well.

Football features markets like handicap betting and both teams to score or not score. Cricket has cricket-specific markets such as over/under runs, session betting and the toss, which are not found in football.

When doing sports betting at 7bet, keep in mind that every sport has its own rules and types of markets. Understanding what kinds of bets are available for each sport before you start is the smart approach.

Popular betting markets in cricket — how each one works

Understanding how each market works makes betting more enjoyable. Below is a straightforward description of seven key markets.

Match Winner

Which of the two teams will win — this is the simplest market. T20 and ODI have no draw, so there are only two options. Team A or Team B — place your bet and check the result when the match ends.

Toss Betting

A bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. It is a pure 50-50, so the odds are usually equal or very close. Many people favour this market because the result comes quickly.

Top Batsman

You bet on which batsman will score the most runs in the match or innings. Having a sense of the team's batting order and current form makes this market more interesting.

Total Runs Over/Under

You bet on whether the total runs in the match or a specific innings will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. Pitch conditions, the outfield and the weather all influence this market.

Top Bowler

You bet on which bowler will take the most wickets. The team's bowling attack and the match situation matter here. Consider whether the pitch is likely to favour pace bowlers or spinners.

Multi Bet

Combining bets from multiple matches or markets into one increases the combined odds significantly. However, all selections must be correct — if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. The potential return is higher in this market, but so is the risk.

Betting Exchange Market

On an exchange you do not only bet on outcomes — you can also LAY a bet, standing against someone else's selection. This adds more flexibility to betting and allows a range of strategies. See the section below for a detailed explanation of odds.

Reading odds — three formats in one place

Cricket betting odds are written in three formats — Decimal, Fractional and American. 7bet generally displays the decimal format, but understanding all three makes betting easier on any platform.

Team Decimal Fractional American
Team A wins 2.50 3/2 +150
Team B wins (favourite) 1.25 1/4 -400

Example 1 — ৳500 bet on Team A

Say Team A's odds are 2.50 in decimal, 3/2 in fractional and +150 in American. A ৳500 bet returns ৳1,250 if you win (৳750 profit + ৳500 stake). If the bet loses, ৳500 is gone.

Example 2 — ৳500 bet on favourite Team B

Team B is the favourite, so the odds are lower — 1.25 in decimal, 1/4 in fractional and -400 in American. A negative American odds figure shows how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. A ৳500 bet returns ৳625 if you win (৳125 profit).

Remember: lower odds mean the team is the favourite and the profit is smaller. Higher odds mean the team is the underdog and the profit is larger if they win. Neither guarantees a result — this is entertainment betting.

7bet guide to understanding odds formats and betting markets

Multi bet example: three selections with odds of 1.40, 1.70 and 1.80 — combined odds are 1.40 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.28. A ৳100 bet returns ৳428 if all three are correct. If even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.

Live In-Play Betting — the situation shifts over by over

Live betting adds a completely new dimension to watching cricket. While the match is in progress, every wicket, every six or four, every end of a powerplay — the odds change in an instant. Placing a bet on the right market at the right moment makes the experience much more enjoyable.

For example, if 60 runs are needed off the last five overs, the match winner and over/under runs odds will shift noticeably in that situation. A wicket falling will push the batting side's odds up, while a run of consecutive boundaries will bring them back down.

Decisions in live betting need to be made quickly. That is why using the 7bet mobile app makes it easy to follow the match and place bets from anywhere.

Odds after a wicket When a key batsman is dismissed, the batting side's odds go up immediately.
After the powerplay Use the run rate during the powerplay to judge the markets for the next session.

A few simple tips to stay sharp while betting

Cricket betting is for entertainment — not as a reliable source of income. A few simple habits help keep betting enjoyable.

Set your budget in advance Decide how much you will bet on each match before it starts. Never go beyond your total budget — not even after a win.
Understand the match context Keep track of the pitch report, team composition and form. This helps you make more informed betting decisions.
Start with one market Begin by getting a good understanding of one market (such as match winner). Spreading across too many markets at once divides your focus.
Take a break after a loss Placing a large bet to recover losses is the most common mistake. Take a short break — the next match will come.
Track your time Spending time on betting is entertainment — but too much time affects other parts of your life. Follow the responsible gaming policy.
Only on trusted platforms Only bet on verified platforms. Betting is for entertainment, not as a financial solution.

Questions about cricket betting

T20 markets are the most active because the match ends quickly and the situation changes every over. ODI offers session betting and partnership markets. Test matches have more innings-based markets — such as who will be the top scorer in each innings or how large the lead will be. T20 and ODI have no draw, so you bet on two outcomes. In Tests, a draw is the third option.

Decimal odds make it easy to calculate the total return — just multiply your stake by the odds. Example: if Team A's odds are 2.50 and you bet ৳500, your return if you win is ৳1,250 (৳750 profit + ৳500 stake). In fractional odds that is 3/2, and in American odds it is +150. All three formats represent the same bet on the same match — only the way they are expressed differs.

The basic structure is the same — match winner, toss, top batsman and over/under markets are available in both tournaments. However, BPL features Bangladeshi teams, so local player form and pitch conditions are more familiar. IPL has more teams and a greater number of international players, which means more variety in the markets. Odds and markets are set separately for each tournament.

When a key batsman is dismissed in cricket, the batting side's chances of scoring runs drop, so their odds of winning increase and the bowling side's odds fall. This is reflected directly in the market. Similarly, if several boundaries or a lot of runs come off consecutive overs, the batting side's odds shorten and they become the favourite. In live betting these changes happen in real time.

In a multi bet the combined odds increase, which means the potential return is also higher. If three selections have odds of 1.40, 1.70 and 1.80, the combined odds are 4.28. A ৳100 bet returns ৳428 if all three are correct. But if even one selection is wrong, the entire ৳100 is lost. In cricket, a single wicket or a rain interruption can change the situation suddenly — so the risk in a multi bet is higher. Enjoy it as entertainment and do not put in a large budget.
