1111bet Cricket Betting — All Markets from T20 to Test in One Place
Explore multiple betting markets for BPL, IPL and international cricket — match winner, toss, top batsman and more. From live in-play to multi bets — everything is now clear in one place.
Cricket Formats and Popular Tournaments
The format of the game makes the biggest difference in cricket betting. T20 matches finish in just a few hours, so odds can shift in moments. A wicket or a six can change the market immediately. BPL and IPL attract the most betting market activity in this fast-paced format.
ODI, or one-day matches, see odds move gradually across the 50-over arc. Batting conditions, pitch nature and a team's average run rate play an important role here. The T20 World Cup and major ICC ODI series are a particular focus for bettors in this format.
Test cricket is a long five-day contest. A draw is a valid result, so betting covers three outcomes — Team A wins, Team B wins, or the match is drawn. In Tests, weather, pitch age and player fitness can dramatically affect betting odds.
Cricket fans in Bangladesh follow the Tigers' matches most closely. Betting markets are most active during the BPL domestic season and the T20 World Cup.
Football and Other Sports Betting
Alongside cricket, football betting is also popular at 1111bet. Football results are decided within 90 minutes, and markets like match winner, goals over/under and corners are available, much like in cricket.
The main difference between cricket and football is the number of betting markets and the pace of in-play action. In cricket, odds change after every ball, every over and every wicket, giving bettors new opportunities constantly. In football, the biggest changes come before and after goals.
If you want to bet across multiple sports at the same time, read the multi bet betting guide — it covers how to combine selections from different matches in detail.
7 Popular Betting Markets
Each market works differently. Below is a brief introduction to seven common markets.
Match Winner
In T20 or ODI, you pick one of two options (Team A wins or Team B wins). In Tests, a draw is added as a third option. Example: if Team A's odds are 1.80, a ৳1,000 bet returns ৳1,800 if they win.
Toss Winner
You pick which team will win the toss before the match starts. There are two equally likely options, so odds are usually close to 2.00. A simple market, but the outcome is entirely random.
Top Batsman
Pick the batter who will score the most runs in the innings. With multiple candidates, odds are higher, and a correct prediction gives a good return. Opening batters for each team usually have lower odds.
Total Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a specific run total (e.g. 160). You bet on whether the team's total runs will go above or below that number. Pitch and weather conditions can inform analysis of this market.
Total Wickets
Bet on whether the total number of wickets in the match will be above or below a set limit. Spin-friendly pitches tend to produce more wickets.
Handicap Betting
A virtual advantage is given to the weaker team to level the betting. Example: if Team A is given a -10 run handicap, the bet is successful only if they win by 11 runs or more.
Multi Bet (Multiple Selections)
Combining multiple matches or markets multiplies the total odds. However, all selections must be correct — if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. Learn more about multi bets on that page.
How to Read Odds — Three Formats
Betting odds are written in three different ways — decimal, fractional and American. All three show the same outcome, just written differently. Below are two examples of the same bet.
| Format | Team A Wins | Team B Wins (Favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 1/4 |
| American | +150 | -400 |
Example 1 — Team A (Underdog):
A ৳500 bet — if Team A wins, the return is ৳1,250 (৳750 profit + ৳500 original stake). If Team A loses, you lose ৳500. Decimal 2.50, fractional 3/2 and American +150 all show the same result.
Example 2 — Team B (Favourite):
A ৳500 bet — if Team B wins, the return is ৳625 (৳125 profit). American -400 means you need to bet ৳400 to make ৳100 profit — a common sign of a favourite.
Simple Rules for Reading Odds
- Decimal: stake × odds = total return (profit and original stake combined).
- Fractional: 3/2 means ৳3 profit on a ৳2 bet. Shows profit only.
- American (+): shows how much profit a ৳100 bet makes. +150 means ৳150 profit.
- American (-): shows how much you need to bet to make ৳100 profit. -400 means a ৳400 bet.
- A higher decimal number means more risk and more potential profit. A lower number indicates a favourite.
Live In-Play Betting — How Odds Shift During a Match
In-play betting lets you place bets after a match has started. In cricket this is especially relevant because every ball creates a new situation.
For example: Team A needs 60 runs off the last 5 overs with 8 wickets in hand. In this situation Team A's odds of winning are low. But if two wickets fall in quick succession, the odds rise sharply. An in-play bettor can make a decision at that moment.
Similarly, if many runs are scored in the powerplay overs, the total runs odds shift. If scoring slows in the middle overs, the under market strengthens.
In-play betting requires quick decisions. The market can update within seconds of a wicket or a boundary. Understanding the match pattern in advance and staying patient is important.
There is some similarity to the hi-lo betting format — the appeal of fast results. Learn more about 1111bet Hi-Lo gameplay on that page.
Some Practical Tips Before Betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — keep that in mind and follow the points below.
- Set a budget: Decide in advance how much you will spend per session. Do not go beyond that limit.
- Understand the format: T20, ODI and Test markets work differently. Being good at one does not automatically carry over to another.
- No rushing in live betting: It is better not to place large bets quickly out of emotion in in-play. Analyse the situation first.
- Focus on one market: Start by sticking to the match winner market. Move to other markets once you are comfortable.
- Read the rules: Different markets have different rules. Before betting, check 1111bet's terms and conditions.
- Play responsibly: Betting is for entertainment, not as a source of income. If needed, read the responsible gaming guide.
Cricket betting should be an enjoyable experience. Play within your limits and take a break when needed.
