Cricket Betting at betvisa — Best Markets for BPL, IPL and T20 World Cup
From every Bangladesh Tigers match to international T20, ODI and Test — betvisa offers betting on every format of cricket. Match Winner, Toss, Top Batsman and live in-play markets — all in one place.
Three Cricket Formats and Tournaments Popular with Bangladeshi Fans
Cricket is played in three main formats — T20, ODI and Test. These three formats not only differ in how the game is played on the field, but also change the type of betting markets available.
T20: The fastest format. Each team gets only 20 overs, so the pace of the match is high and the result can change at any moment. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are played in this format and are especially popular among cricket fans in Bangladesh. There is also keen interest in the Bangladesh Tigers' performance at the ICC T20 World Cup.
ODI: One-day cricket is 50 overs. There is more room for strategy here — run rate in the middle overs, powerplay advantage and the final ten-over finish make the markets more varied. ODI markets stay active during the ICC World Cup and bilateral series.
Test: In this five-day format, patience and strategy matter most. A draw is possible, so three outcomes exist in the market — Team A wins, Team B wins and Draw. When Test matches are played in Dhaka or in series abroad, those markets are also available on betvisa.
Alongside cricket, football and other sports markets are also available — these are discussed below.
How Betting Differs in Football and Other Sports
Football Betting
In football, a match result has three possibilities — home team win, away team win or draw. This three-way market differs from cricket in limited-overs formats, where a draw does not occur. Goal line, both teams to score and half-time result markets add further variety to football betting.
Other Sports
Sports like tennis, badminton and kabaddi generally have two outcomes, with no draw. These sports have fewer markets than cricket, but Match Winner, Set Winner and Handicap markets are available. Wicket- or over-based markets, as seen in cricket, are not relevant here.

The Most Commonly Used Markets in Cricket Betting
Match Winner
You pick which team will win the match. If Team A wins, the stake on Team A's market is returned with winnings; if Team B wins, the other side pays out. There is no draw in limited-overs cricket, so there are only two options.
Toss Market
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The outcome is completely independent — it has no connection to the game that follows, so the odds for both teams are roughly equal.
Top Batsman
Which player will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match. Several candidates from each team are in contention, so the odds are spread out.
Total Runs Over / Under
A bet on whether the combined runs of both teams will be more (Over) or less (Under) than a set number. Pitch conditions and weather play a significant role in this market.
Multi Bet
Bets are placed on multiple markets at the same time and all the odds are multiplied together. For example, placing bets on three separate markets at odds of 1.40, 1.50 and 1.70 gives combined odds of 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.70 = ৳357 per ৳100 staked — but all markets must win.
Top Wicket Taker
A bet on which bowler will take the most wickets. Separate markets may exist for pace and spin bowlers. If the pitch favours spin, that is reflected in the odds.
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds — Explained with Examples
Odds on a betting platform can be displayed in three different formats. The same value looks different in each format, but the underlying meaning is the same.
Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150
If you win, return is ৳2,500 (৳1,500 profit + ৳1,000 stake); if you lose, ৳1,000 is gone.
Decimal odds are the simplest — multiply the stake by the odds to get the total return. 2.50 means ৳2.50 back for every ৳1 staked.
Fractional odds are written in the British style. 3/2 means ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked — the original stake is returned separately.
American odds come in two forms — plus (+) and minus (−). +150 means ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet. Minus odds indicate the favourite:
Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American −400
American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳1,000 stake, the return is ৳1,250 (৳250 profit).
These figures are examples for understanding only — they are not actual match odds or any guarantee of winning. Betting is for entertainment, and every bet carries a chance of losing as well as winning.
Odds Shift When Wickets Fall — How Live In-Play Betting Works
Live in-play betting lets you place bets while a match is in progress. Odds change after every delivery, wicket or six — because the probability of each outcome is recalculated based on the situation at that moment.
For example, in a T20, if Team A loses 3 wickets in the 15th over, Team B's chances of winning increase and Team B's odds shorten. Conversely, if Team A scores 20 runs in one over, Team A's odds drop quickly.
In ODI, mid-match odds are shaped by the run rate at the end of the powerplay. In Test, pitch conditions and session-based markets apply — separate markets may be open for the morning, afternoon and evening sessions.
Decisions in live betting must be made quickly — odds can change within seconds. Paying close attention to what is happening on the field is important.
Next Over Market: Markets are also available on how many runs will be scored in the next over or whether a wicket will fall. These markets close quickly.
Cash Out: In some markets, you can close your bet before the match ends — taking a partial profit if you are ahead, or reducing your loss.

Things That Actually Help with Cricket Betting
Set Your Budget First
Before each match, decide for yourself how much in total you will bet. Do not go beyond that — cricket betting is a form of entertainment, not a way to earn money. It is worth reading the Responsible Gaming page to play responsibly.
Understand the Format Before Choosing a Market
A batsman's form in T20 and pitch behaviour in Test are two different things. Each format has its own rhythm, so choosing a market that matches the format keeps the picture clearer.
Be More Careful with Multi Bets
Even though odds go up in a multi bet, losing just one market means the entire bet is lost. Starting with a smaller number of markets combined together is a sensible way to get familiar with how multi bets work.
Stay Focused in Live Betting, Not Emotional
Watching a match can make it tempting to place bets in a rush when excitement builds. Watch how the odds move, understand the situation, then make your decision.
Start with Small Stakes
When betting on a new market or format for the first time, start with a small amount. The minimum deposit at betvisa is ৳200, so you can start at a comfortable level.
