3333bet Cricket Betting — from BPL to the T20 World Cup
Follow every moment of bat and ball more closely. At 3333bet you get match winner, toss, top batsman, over/under runs and all types of markets in one place, including live in-play betting.
T20, ODI and Test — what to bet on in each format
Cricket's three formats are each distinct from a betting perspective as well. T20 matches last only a few hours, so results come quickly and the situation can shift every over. ODI involves over five hundred balls, making innings-based batsman markets more relevant here. In Test matches, weather, pitch conditions and the tail end play a big role — a draw is a valid result, so markets offer three options.
BPL is extremely popular among Bangladeshi cricket fans. Besides that, 3333bet keeps betting markets open for every match of the IPL, ICC T20 World Cup and bilateral series. These tournaments give you the chance to bet while enjoying the best cricket moments from the country.

How cricket betting is different from football
What makes cricket different
Cricket tends to have more markets — every wicket, every over and every partnership creates a separate market. In a T20 match, even a single wicket falling can shift the odds noticeably. Rain or pitch conditions can heavily influence the outcome in cricket, which is not the case in most other sports.
Football and other sports
In football, scoreline markets matter more because goals are fewer. In tennis, each set creates a separate market. Sports like Kabaddi or chess have limited markets. Where cricket offers repeated betting opportunities over a long match, football wraps up quickly. Since each sport has its own betting structure, being familiar with one makes it more enjoyable.
The most played betting markets
Below is a brief explanation of how each market works. Each example uses Team A and Team B — these are only for illustration and do not refer to any real teams.
Match Winner
Pick one from two options — will Team A or Team B win? There is no draw in T20, making this the simplest market. Example: if you pick Team A and they win, your bet is successful.
Toss Winner
Which team — Team A or Team B — will win the toss before the match starts. Since the probability is equal, the odds are usually about the same for both sides. An easy market to start with using a small stake.
Top Batsman
Predicting which batsman will score the most runs in the match. You pick the name of the top run-scorer from a team. A team's batting order and recent form come in handy here.
Total Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a specific number, such as "total runs 160". You decide whether the actual total runs will be more (over) or less (under) than that. Pitch and weather conditions are important here.
Multi Bet (multiple selections)
Selecting the outcomes of multiple matches together multiplies the odds and increases the potential return, but if even one selection is wrong the entire bet loses. Example: odds of 1.70, 1.80 and 1.90 across three matches — combined they come to around 5.81 — a ৳100 bet returns ৳581 if all are correct.
Top Wicket Taker
A market on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. On spin-friendly pitches, the odds for spinners shorten. Considering the pace-spin balance is a natural factor in this market.
Decimal, Fractional and American — three types of odds
Different betting sites display odds in three different formats. All three convey the same information — only the way they are written differs. Let's understand all three formats together using the example below:
| Format | Odds | Return on ৳1,000 bet |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | ৳2,250 (profit ৳1,250) |
| Fractional | 5/4 | ৳2,250 (profit ৳1,250) |
| American | +125 | ৳2,250 (profit ৳1,250) |
Example: Team A to win — the same odds in all three formats. A ৳1,000 bet returns ৳2,250 if Team A wins (original stake ৳1,000 + profit ৳1,250); if they lose, ৳1,000 is gone.
Now a favourite example: Team B looks easier to back — decimal 1.50, fractional 1/2, American -200 (American minus means how much you need to bet to win ৳100). A ৳1,000 bet returns ৳1,500 (profit only ৳500).

Live In-Play — betting while the match is on
With in-play betting you can place bets even after the match has started. Wickets, runs, powerplay — odds shift with every event. It gives you a reason to watch cricket with even closer attention.
Odds change when a wicket falls
When the batting team loses a wicket, their odds lengthen (meaning a loss looks more likely) and the bowling team's odds shorten. This change is visible instantly in the live market.
Powerplay runs
If a lot of runs come in the first six overs, the chances of a big total increase, so the over/under market line moves up. The reverse happens when fewer runs are scored.
Rain and pitch
If rain stops mid-match or the pitch breaks down, the DLS method may apply — in-play markets can be temporarily suspended, and new odds come through once play resumes.
Pressure in the death overs
In the last five overs, when the target is close, the odds for one team in the match winner market can drop sharply. In-play betting at this point moves fast.
Some practical things to keep in mind
-
Understand the market before placing a bet
Read how the market you are betting on works before placing your stake. The rules for match winner and multi bet are different; mixing them up leads to unexpected results. -
Set a fixed budget
Betting is for entertainment — it is better not to bet beyond what you can afford to lose. Decide how much you will spend each session before you start and stick to that limit. -
Keep the number of selections low in a multi bet
The difference between three selections and five is significant — the chance of all of them being correct drops quickly. Higher odds do not make a multi bet easier. -
Do not rush in in-play betting
Live odds change fast. Rather than betting in a sudden moment of excitement, it is better to understand the situation before making a decision. Betting is always meant to be enjoyable. -
Follow responsible gaming guidelines
3333bet has responsible gaming guidelines — including options to set limits and self-exclude. Keep in mind that betting should not go beyond being enjoyable.
A reminder
Betting can add to the enjoyment of watching cricket, but it is not a guaranteed source of income. Treat every bet as entertainment.
