366bet Cricket Betting — the best place to bet on BPL, IPL and international matches
From T20 to Test, BPL to T20 World Cup — 366bet offers multiple markets for every cricket format. Check odds and place bets on any market before the match starts or while it is live.
Cricket's three formats and tournaments popular with Bangladeshis
Cricket has a special place in Bangladesh. Each format plays differently, and understanding that difference is useful for betting.
T20 — Fast-paced cricket
Results can swing in an instant across just 20 overs. Leagues like BPL and IPL are played in T20 format and are the most popular among Bangladeshi fans. T20 is ideal for live betting because odds can shift every over.
ODI — The fifty-over contest
Strategy matters more in a 50-over match. The ICC Cricket World Cup and bilateral series are played in ODI format. Changes in run rate during the middle overs directly affect betting markets.
Test — The five-day challenge
In a five-day Test match, a draw is a valid result, so you can bet on three outcomes (Team A win, Team B win, draw). Pitch, weather and wicket conditions have the biggest influence on odds.
Betting on BPL, IPL and ICC events
Bangladesh's own league, BPL, keeps cricket fans engaged every season. IPL, ICC T20 World Cup and Bangladesh Tigers international matches are also covered at 366bet.
Separate markets are open for each tournament — from group stage matches through to the final. Football and other sports markets are also available at 366bet, covered further below.
Football and other sports alongside cricket
Besides cricket, 366bet offers betting on football. Major events like the World Cup, Premier League and AFC Championship have match winner, goalscorer, over/under and handicap markets.
The main difference between cricket and football betting is the pace of play and the number of markets. In cricket, the situation can change ball by ball, keeping in-play markets very active. In football, goals are less frequent, so odds tend to stay relatively stable.

5 popular betting markets in cricket and how they work
Each market has its own characteristics. A brief explanation and one example are given for each below.
Match Winner
This market asks which of the two teams will win. Only two outcomes are possible in T20 and ODI (three in Test). Example: Team A vs Team B — if Team A is the favourite, their odds will be lower and Team B's odds will be higher.
Toss Result
Bet on which team will win the toss. Since the probability of both outcomes is nearly equal, odds for both sides are usually close. The importance of the toss can increase depending on pitch conditions.
Top Batsman
The market for which batsman will score the most runs in an innings. Available separately for one team or across the whole match. Considering current form and batting position makes this market easier to read.
Total Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether the total runs in the match will be above (over) or below (under) a set run line. For example, if the line is 320 runs and you think the total will exceed 320, choose "over". Like handicap betting, the result is determined by the numbers.
Multi Bet (multiple selections)
You can add selections from multiple markets to a single slip to create one bet. All selections must be correct to win — if even one is wrong, the entire stake is lost. However, the combined odds are much higher, so a win returns more.
Top Wicket-Taker
Bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. The effectiveness of pace bowlers versus spinners varies by pitch, and this difference shows clearly in live odds.
Decimal, fractional and American odds — three formats explained simply
Odds at 366bet cricket betting are usually shown in decimal format, but knowing all three international formats is useful on any platform.
| Format | Team A (Underdog) | Team B (Favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.50 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 1/2 |
| American | +125 | -200 |
Example 1 — betting on Team A to win, stake ৳500
Decimal odds of 2.25 means — if you win, total return is ৳1,125 (profit ৳625 + original stake ৳500); if you lose, ৳500 is gone. Fractional 5/4 or American +125 show the same result.
Example 2 — Team B (favourite), stake ৳500
Decimal odds of 1.50 means — if you win, total return is ৳750 (profit ৳250); American -200 means you stake ৳200 to win ৳100 — this is how favourite odds are displayed.

In-play betting — odds shift the moment a wicket falls
In-play betting during a match is especially significant in cricket because the situation can change with every ball. When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds rise immediately. Conversely, after a six or a high-scoring over, the bowling team's odds increase.
Over count plays a big role here. After the powerplay, the run rate gives a sense of where the match is heading. If spinners dominate the middle overs, total runs markets shift. In death overs, when batsmen take risks, the chance of wickets also rises.
One thing to keep in mind with live betting — odds update very quickly. So look at the situation carefully before making a decision. You can read the responsible gaming guidelines to build good betting habits.
In-play market examples
- Next wicket — at what score will it fall?
- Total runs in a specific over
- Outcome of the next ball (wide / no-ball / boundary)
- Updated innings score markets
Some practical tips for cricket betting
-
Understand the market before you bet. Match winner is straightforward, but handicap or over/under markets have different conditions. Read the rules once before placing a bet.
-
Stick to your budget. Decide how much you will stake on each match beforehand and keep to that limit. Betting is for entertainment — do not increase stakes trying to recover losses.
-
Be patient with live betting. Odds change fast, so avoid placing bets in a rush — assess the situation first. Waiting a little in in-play markets often leads to better odds.
-
Be careful with multi bets. Three selections at decimal odds 1.50 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.59 (approx.), meaning a ৳100 stake returns ৳459 if all win. But if even one selection is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost. Fewer selections in a multi bet means lower risk.
-
Use the app. The 366bet Android and iOS app is available through official channels. Tracking live odds on mobile is easier, especially during a match.
-
Keep your account secure. Log in safely on the 366bet Login page and do not share your password with anyone.
Betting as entertainment
Cricket betting is for enjoyment — it is not a reliable source of income. There is no guarantee of winning any match.
If you notice signs of a betting problem, take a break and read the responsible gaming page.
