Cricket Betting at jetbet — Bet on T20, ODI and BPL Matches
From BPL, IPL and T20 World Cup to bilateral Test series — jetbet offers betting on matches across every format. Easily place bets on Match Winner, Top Batsman, Over/Under and many more markets.
The Three Formats of Cricket and How Betting Differs
Each format has a different style of play, so betting approaches differ too. Having a basic understanding of the formats helps you make better decisions before placing a bet.
T20
The shortest format, with just 20 overs per side. BPL and IPL are played in this format. Scores can shift rapidly, so live markets change with every over. Winning the toss takes on particular importance here.
ODI
Each team plays 50 overs. The longer scope compared to T20 means there is more pressure and opportunity during the middle of the match. Top Batsman and mid-match Over/Under markets are popular here.
Test
A long five-day format where a draw is possible. Series Winner and session-based markets are available here. The slower pace of Test cricket allows more time to read the situation.
Betting on BPL, IPL and International Matches
Major Tournaments You Can Bet On
The competition most familiar to Bangladeshi fans is the BPL (Bangladesh Premier League). Interest in this league's matches is naturally high every season. jetbet also offers betting on India's IPL and the ICC's T20 World Cup and ICC Champions Trophy.
Matches featuring the Bangladesh Tigers in bilateral series are also available in the markets. Whether the format is Test, ODI or T20, the main markets are available for all of them.

Popular Betting Markets
Cricket offers a wide variety of markets. Below is a brief overview of seven common markets and how they work.
Match Winner
A straight bet on which team will win the match. In T20 there are no draws, so you simply pick one of the two teams.
Toss
A bet on which team wins the toss. It does not depend on the match result, which is why many people choose this market separately from other bets.
Top Batsman
A bet on which player will score the most runs for their team. Most commonly seen in ODI and T20.
Total Runs — Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs scored in a specific over or an entire innings will be above (over) or below (under) a set number.
Multi Bet
Multiple markets are combined into a single bet. For example, picking the winner of three matches together multiplies the odds — but if any one selection loses, the entire bet is lost.
First Wicket Partnership Runs
A bet on how many runs the opening partnership will produce. In T20 this market is settled quickly.
Handicap
The weaker team is given a notional run advantage to level the bet. This can produce attractive odds even against a strong opponent.
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds
How to Read Odds
Betting platforms display odds in three formats. jetbet generally uses the decimal format, but knowing the other two is also useful.
Say you place a ৳500 bet on Team A to win. The odds in three formats: 2.25 (Decimal) = 5/4 (Fractional) = +125 (American). If Team A wins you receive ৳1,125 (৳625 profit + ৳500 original stake). If they lose, the full ৳500 is gone.
Team B is the favourite — odds 1.80 (Decimal) = 4/5 (Fractional) = −125 (American). American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100. On a ৳500 bet, if Team B wins you receive ৳900 (৳400 profit).
The higher the odds, the greater the potential profit — but the lower the perceived chance of winning. Betting is for entertainment; there is no guarantee of profit. Read the responsible gaming guidelines.
In-Play Betting — Placing Bets While the Match Is On
In cricket, odds change after every wicket, every boundary and every over. jetbet's live betting market lets you place bets after the match has started, and new markets open as the situation changes.
Say Team A is 60 for 4 after 10 overs in a T20. Team A's odds to win will lengthen, meaning there is a chance of a higher potential return than at the start of the match. However, the situation changes quickly — a big partnership or a run of wickets can shift the picture entirely.
In Test matches, pitch conditions and weather at the end of each day affect the next day's markets. In ODI, markets may close or reopen after a rain break due to the Duckworth-Lewis adjustment.
Real-Time Bets on Live Matches
Cricket vs Other Sports
Besides cricket, jetbet also offers betting on football and other sports. Knowing the key differences between each helps with betting decisions.
Cricket Betting
Longer matches (especially ODI and Test), with separate markets for each session. Cricket-specific markets such as Toss, individual performance (Top Batsman, Top Bowler) and team total runs are available here. In Test cricket, a draw is possible, so you can bet on three outcomes.
Football Betting
Goals are less frequent in a ninety-minute match, so odds are generally higher. Handicap, Both Teams to Score and Correct Score are football's own markets. Visit our football betting page to learn more about football betting.
If you are interested in slots or casino games, the jetbet Casino page has information on live baccarat, roulette and slots.
A Few Practical Tips Before You Start Betting
Cricket betting is one way to enjoy the sport — it is not a guaranteed way to make money. Keeping a few things in mind will make the experience better.
-
Understand the format before you bet. In T20, the final overs can shift the result dramatically. In Test cricket, weather and pitch reports play an important role.
-
Set a budget. Decide in advance how much money you are willing to spend on betting and stay within that limit. Avoid the urge to place larger bets to recover losses.
-
Do not spread across too many markets at once. For beginners, focusing on one or two markets is better. Match Winner is the simplest place to start.
-
No rushing in live betting. Even when odds are changing fast, read the situation rather than making a decision under immediate pressure.
-
Betting is entertainment, not a business. Do not bet under stress or driven by emotion. Take a break and, if needed, read the responsible gaming guidelines.
