bdjl apps Cricket Betting — bet on all formats from T20 to Test
Place bets on every match in BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup and international cricket across multiple markets. Odds change as the match progresses — make your decision at the right moment.
Cricket's Three Formats and Popular Tournaments
Cricket fans in Bangladesh know the three main formats well — T20, ODI and Test. From a betting perspective, each format has a different nature, and the type of bets and odds differ across them too.
T20
This format is played over just 20 overs, so the pace of the match is much higher. BPL and IPL are both played in T20 format, and the Bangladesh Tigers' international T20 matches also draw a big response. Odds change quickly in shorter matches, so in-play betting sees frequent shifts.
T20 · BPL · IPLODI
The fifty-over one-day international brings together strategy and patience. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in this format. Total runs, match winner and partnership markets are the most popular in ODIs.
ODI · World CupTest
Five-day Test cricket is the longest format. A draw is a valid result here, so a three-way bet (team A wins / team B wins / draw) is available. Pitch conditions and weather play a big role in Test odds.
Test · 5 DaysFootball and Other Sports
At bdjl apps you can bet on football alongside cricket. In football, goals scored, handicap and match winner markets are the most common in a ninety-minute game. Environmental factors like pitch type matter less in football than in cricket, but team form and injury news are worth considering in both. Other sports are also available on the platform, but cricket is the most followed category among Bangladeshi users.
For those interested in card games too, Teen Patti 20-20 is available as a separate section — a completely different style of gameplay, as an alternative to sports betting.
Popular Betting Markets and How They Work
A cricket match has multiple betting markets. The type of bet in each market is different — some are straightforward, some require a bit more analysis.
Match Winner
Who will win the match — this is the simplest market. In T20 and ODI you pick one of the two teams. For example: team A and team B are playing — if team B has higher odds, a winning bet returns more.
Most CommonToss Winner
Which team will win the toss — this market closes before the match starts. The outcome is purely a matter of chance, so both teams' odds are usually close to each other.
Pre-Match MarketTop Batsman
Who will score the most runs for a given team — you pick one batter in this market. The batting order and pitch type both have an influence here.
Player PerformanceTotal Runs Over/Under
You decide whether the runs scored in an innings will be above or below a set number — for example, whether the first innings will exceed 160 runs. Pitch, team batting ability and weather are important factors here.
Over/UnderMulti Bet
Betting on multiple matches or events at once — you get a return only if all of them win. Losing just one loses the entire bet. The combined odds are higher so the potential return is larger, but the risk is also greater.
Multi BetPowerplay Runs
You can bet on how many runs will be scored in the first 6 overs (the powerplay). If no wickets fall, there is a higher chance of more runs, so you can also make in-play decisions after watching the opening overs.
In-Match SectionHow to Read Odds — Three Formats Explained
Betting platforms usually show three odds formats — decimal, fractional and American. In Bangladesh most platforms default to decimal format, but all three express the same information in different ways.
The two examples below illustrate all three formats. Keep in mind these are examples for understanding only — they are not actual match odds or guaranteed returns.
You can view odds in all formats in the bdjl apps Bet section.
| Example | Decimal | Fractional | American | Result (Stake ৳1,000) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Team A wins (underdog) | 2.25 | 5/4 | +125 | If you win, ৳2,250 returned (৳1,250 profit + ৳1,000 stake); if you lose, ৳1,000 is gone. |
| Team B wins (favourite) | 1.25 | 1/4 | -400 | If you win, ৳1,250 returned (৳250 profit); if you lose, ৳1,000 is gone. A minus American odds figure means how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. |
Remember: Decimal odds of 2.25 means you get back a total of ৳2.25 for every ৳1 staked (stake included). Fractional 5/4 means a ৳4 bet earns ৳5 profit. American +125 means a ৳100 stake earns ৳125 profit.
Live In-Play Betting — Odds During the Match
In-play betting means you can place bets even after the match has started. In cricket, odds shift after every wicket and at the end of every over. If a team loses 3 wickets in 10 overs, their chances of winning fall and the opposition's odds shorten. These changes are visible on screen in real time.
In T20, even a single six or a maiden over can immediately affect the odds. In-play betting moves fast — some markets are open for just a few seconds before closing when the ball is delivered.
In ODIs the most dramatic odds shifts can happen once the powerplay is over, and in Test matches during the final session of the day. Having a sense of how the match is flowing helps when following in-play betting.
A Few Practical Points Before Betting
Cricket betting is a form of entertainment. Keeping a few things in mind when making decisions helps keep the experience more controlled.
-
Set a budget first
Decide in advance how much you want to spend on each match. Increasing your bets to chase losses is not a good approach. -
Know the match context
A team's recent form, pitch type and weather all affect odds in the betting markets. Cricket is unpredictable, so outcomes are never certain. -
Understand multi bets
Three selections at decimal 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.60 = 3.36 (approximately) combined odds, meaning a ৳100 stake returns ৳336 only if all three win; losing even one loses the entire stake. -
Play responsibly
Betting is for entertainment, not as a source of income. Visit the Responsible Gaming page for guidance on setting limits and staying in control. -
Don't rush in-play
Odds change quickly in live betting. Taking a moment to understand the situation before deciding is better — acting on impulse can lead to problems. -
Read the rules
Each market has its own rules. It helps to check the Terms and Conditions before you start betting.
