Cricket Betting at betjee — top betting opportunities on T20, ODI and Test matches
betjee brings cricket fans in Bangladesh a wide range of betting markets for BPL, IPL and international matches. From match winner and toss to multi bets — all markets in one place.
The three cricket formats and tournaments popular with Bangladeshis
Cricket is played in three main formats — each with its own pace and strategy, and the differences are clear in the betting markets too.
T20 is the fastest format — results can swing in a moment in a 20-over match. The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) and IPL are both T20 competitions, so these two leagues have the most active markets on betjee. Every over and every wicket reshapes the odds.
ODI, or One Day International cricket, has 50 overs per side so the pace is a little slower, but markets like match winner, total runs and top batsman offer more options. The ODI stage of the T20 World Cup and ICC events holds particular interest for Bangladeshis.
Test cricket is a five-day contest. A draw is a valid result here, so the market structure is different — odds are split across three possible outcomes (Team A win, Team B win, draw). From a betting strategy perspective Test is the most complex format, but each session creates new opportunities.
Bangladesh Tigers matches on the international stage are always listed in betjee's markets — interest among fans runs especially high during the T20 World Cup and ICC Championship.
Differences in betting on football and other sports
betjee offers betting on football and several other sports, not just cricket. However, there are some fundamental differences between cricket and football betting markets that are worth understanding.
In football, a draw is a common result alongside a win, so every match has three main options. In T20 or ODI cricket there is generally no draw, making the market straightforward — which is easier for new bettors. In Test cricket a draw is again possible.
Because fewer goals are scored in football, a single goal can flip the odds for the whole match. In cricket the flow of runs changes constantly, so in-play markets offer many more opportunities. For those who want to enjoy live action alongside cricket, BetterLive live streaming and live markets is a great option.
Betting on sports like tennis, badminton or kabaddi works differently again — set-based or point-based markets are more common there. Cricket is naturally the first choice for bettors in Bangladesh.
7 popular betting markets with simple examples
betjee offers many types of cricket betting markets. Below are the seven most widely used markets with simple explanations.
A bet on who will win the match. In T20 there are only two options — Team A or Team B. Example: if Team B's odds are higher, there is an opportunity for a larger return on a small stake.
EasiestA bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. Since both teams have roughly equal chances, odds are usually close — a quick decision before the match starts.
Quick resultA bet on which batsman will score the most runs for their team. This market keeps interest going throughout the entire innings.
Innings-longA bet on whether both teams combined will score more (over) or fewer (under) than a set number of runs. Wickets falling increases the chance of under; the powerplay favours over.
Run-dependentChoosing the results of several matches together on one slip. For example: betting on three different teams to win three different matches. If all selections are correct the return is much higher, but if even one is wrong the whole bet is lost.
High returnA bet on which player will receive the Man of the Match award. All-rounders who can perform well in both batting and bowling generally have favourable odds.
Skill analysisThe stronger team is artificially set back to level the market. For example, if Team A is given a handicap of -1.5 wickets or -20 runs, even if they win in reality they lose the bet if the handicap is not covered. This market becomes useful when there is a big difference in strength between the two teams.
Odds in three formats: decimal, fractional and American
betjee displays odds in three familiar formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three formats convey the same information; only the way they are expressed differs.
| Format | Team A win (moderate pick) | Team B win (strong favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 1/4 |
| American | +150 | -400 |
Example 1 — moderate pick (Team A win): On a ৳500 bet, decimal odds of 2.50 give a return of ৳1,250 if you win — that is ৳750 profit plus your ৳500 stake back. If you lose, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — strong favourite (Team B win): Decimal odds of 1.25 mean a ৳500 bet returns only ৳625 — just ৳125 profit. In American format, -400 means you need to stake ৳400 to win ৳100.
Simple rules for understanding odds
- Decimal odds never go below 1.00 — 1.00 means zero profit.
- Fractional odds are numerator/denominator — 3/2 means ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked.
- American plus (+) means underdog; minus (-) means favourite.
- The higher the odds, the less likely the outcome is considered to be — and the higher the return.
- Betting is for entertainment — no format guarantees a win.
Odds change when wickets fall — the appeal of in-play betting
betjee's live in-play betting lets you place bets right in the middle of a match. After the match starts, market odds keep changing with every ball, every wicket and every over.
Say Team A is batting and 3 wickets fall in the powerplay — Team A's win odds will immediately lengthen (because the market considers their chances of winning to have fallen) while Team B's odds shorten. You can place a new bet on the in-play market based on these updated odds.
Last-over pressure, the Duckworth-Lewis rule or a rain break — these situations make live markets even more dynamic. There is less time to decide in in-play betting, so it is a good idea to set your budget before you start. To learn more about responsible play, read our responsible gaming guidelines.

Multi bet — calculating a bet across several matches at once
A multi bet, or accumulator, means adding the results of three or more matches to a single slip. The total odds are calculated by multiplying the odds of each selection together.
A practical multi bet example
| Selection | Decimal odds |
|---|---|
| Selection 1 | 1.50 |
| Selection 2 | 1.60 |
| Selection 3 | 1.90 |
| Total odds (1.50 × 1.60 × 1.90) | 4.56 |
A ৳100 bet returns ৳456 if all three selections are correct. But if even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost — that is the risk with a multi bet.
A multi bet is entertaining, but getting every selection right is difficult. It is therefore wise to use only a set portion of your budget on multi bets.
Know this before using multi bets
- Each selection is independent — if one is voided, the slip calculation changes.
- Because odds multiply, the return is higher, but so is the risk of losing everything.
- Adding more than three selections makes the chances of winning drop quickly.
- Every bet is for entertainment — not a source of income.

Useful tips for cricket betting at betjee
Betting is for entertainment — no strategy guarantees a win. That said, some general habits lead to a more informed experience.
-
Set your budget first. Decide how much you will spend each session before you start. Avoid placing large bets on impulse to chase losses.
-
Choose markets based on the format. Total runs markets are active in T20; in Test, planning is different because there are three options including a draw.
-
Time pressure in live betting. Odds change fast in in-play markets — take a moment before deciding, do not rush.
-
Focus on one market at a time. Spreading attention across many markets at once divides your focus. Beginners are better off starting with match winner or toss.
-
Follow the 21+ age rule. All betting activity on betjee is for people aged 21 and over only.
