cricxi Cricket Betting — Every Format from T20 to Test
Bet at cricxi on every match across BPL, IPL and international cricket. Join in across various markets — from match winner to top batsman — using Bangladeshi payment methods.
Cricket's Three Formats and Popular Tournaments
Among cricket fans in Bangladesh, T20, ODI and Test each hold their own appeal. T20 is the fastest format; results come within a few hours, which means more betting opportunities. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) generates excitement across the country every year — from the grounds in Dhaka to fans in every corner of Bangladesh who follow the tournament closely. IPL and the T20 World Cup are also particularly popular for betting at cricxi.
In ODI matches, the fifty-over game makes strategy more complex. If wickets fall mid-innings or the run rate shifts, market odds change quickly. Test cricket is the longest format — over five days, the situation can change at any moment, and a draw remains a possibility. Each format has its own betting character, so understanding them makes decision-making easier.
Alongside cricket, cricxi also offers betting on football and other sports. In football, a tie or draw is a separate outcome, which does not exist in limited-overs cricket — this difference is worth keeping in mind when choosing a market.
cricxi Popular Betting Markets
Each market works differently. Below is a brief introduction to six markets most commonly used in cricket betting.
Match Winner
Pick which team will win. For example, if Team B's odds are 2.00 in a match between Team A and Team B, a ৳500 bet on Team B returns ৳1,000 if they win (৳500 profit).
Toss Winner
Bet on who will win the toss before the match starts. The result is known within moments and odds are generally close for both sides.
Top Batsman
Pick which batsman will score the most runs. You choose the top batsman within one team or across the whole match, and odds tend to be higher.
Total Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether total runs in the match will be over or under a set number. For example: whether total runs in a T20 will exceed 150.
Multi Bet
Multiple selections are combined into one bet and all odds are multiplied together. For example, three separate matches at 1.40 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 4.79 combined odds — a ৳100 bet returns ৳479 if all selections win. For more details, read the Betting Tips and Strategy Guide.
Halftime / Innings Score
Bet on which team will be ahead after a set number of overs or at the innings break. You can make a decision based on the mid-game situation without depending on the final result.
Odds in Three Formats — How to Read Each One
Betting sites display odds in three common formats: decimal, fractional and American. Even though the numbers look different, all three say the same thing about the same match odds — only the way they are written differs.
Example 1 — Odds for Team A to win, stake ৳200:
| Format | Odds | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | ৳2.50 returned per ৳1 staked (including profit) |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet |
A ৳200 bet returns ৳500 if Team A wins (৳300 profit + ৳200 stake); if they lose, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Odds for favourite Team B: Decimal 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American -125. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. A ৳200 bet returns ৳360 if Team B wins (৳160 profit).
The decimal format is the most straightforward for Bangladeshi bettors because the total return is shown in a single number. cricxi displays decimal odds by default.
Live Odds Update: Odds change constantly during a match. When a wicket falls or a big over is bowled in the powerplay, the odds shift instantly — that is what makes live betting different.
Live Betting — Odds That Change with Wickets and Overs
In-play or live betting means placing bets while a match is in progress. Odds are set before the match, but once play begins, the result of every ball influences those odds.
There are certain key moments in cricket live betting. If the batting team posts a big score in the powerplay without losing a wicket, their odds of winning shorten (meaning they become more favoured). Conversely, if wickets fall in consecutive overs in the middle phase, the bowling team's odds shorten. In T20, the picture can change completely in the final five overs.
Live betting in Test cricket is more complex — the pitch changes character as the day goes on, and play may be stopped due to weather or bad light. For these reasons, the draw odds in a Test match also shift gradually. In ODI, markets may temporarily close when the Duckworth-Lewis method is applied.
If you want to enjoy live betting, follow the match as it happens and set a specific budget beforehand. Reading cricxi's responsible gaming guidelines will give you tips on keeping betting enjoyable.
Things to keep in mind with in-play betting
- When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds lengthen
- A big six shortens the odds quickly
- A high run rate in the final overs keeps markets unstable
- Markets may temporarily close due to rain or bad light
- A draw is possible in Test; not in T20/ODI
Beyond Cricket — Other Sports and Casino
Besides cricket, cricxi also offers betting on football, tennis and various other sports. Since a draw is a separate outcome in football, the market structure differs from cricket — there are separate odds for each of the three results (home / draw / away).
Among live casino games, the Dragon Tiger live card game is particularly popular with Bangladeshi players. It is a fast-paced card game where you bet on which of two hands — Dragon or Tiger — holds the higher card. Visit the Dragon Tiger page for more details.
If you are interested in slots and other casino games, the cricxi Casino page shows the full game library — including games from PG Soft, JILI, Pragmatic Play and many other studios.
Casino vs Sports Betting
In sports betting, the outcome depends on performance on the field. In casino games, each round's result is independent and measured by an RTP (Return to Player) rate. Both are forms of entertainment — not a way to make money.
A Few Practical Tips for Cricket Betting
Focus on one market: Start with simpler markets like match winner or total runs. Trying to follow too many markets at once makes decisions harder.
Keep a separate budget: Set a daily entertainment budget. Stay within that limit and do not place extra bets to recover losses.
Think strategy by format: In T20, the batting team's powerplay performance matters a lot. In Test, pitch reports and weather are more relevant. Applying the same thinking across both formats is not advisable.
Watch the match while betting: Making decisions in live betting without watching the game is difficult. Following the match as it happens makes it easier to read the situation.
Be careful with multi bets: Even though multi bets offer higher odds, every selection must win. If one loses, the entire bet is gone. When starting out, it is better not to combine more than two or three selections.
Treat betting as entertainment: Cricket betting is one way to have fun — not a reliable source of income. There is no guarantee of winning long-term, so only bet money you can afford to lose.
