Cricket Betting at crickex welcome — T20 to Test, all formats
BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup or Test series — crickex welcome brings you varied betting markets, live odds and easy payment options for every match.
Cricket's three formats and popular tournaments
Only 20 overs per side — results can shift quickly. T20 is the most popular format among bettors because the odds take a new shape with every over. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are two major tournaments in this format that Bangladeshi fans follow most closely.
50 overs per side. Strategy plays a bigger role than in T20 — the style of play differs across the powerplay, middle overs and death overs. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are the main stages for ODI cricket. Bangladesh Tigers matches in this format carry particular importance.
A five-day contest — the ultimate test of patience and strategy. Odds in Test betting shift gradually, giving you more time to analyse the match. A draw is also a possible result, which creates additional markets.
BPL, IPL and international cricket
BPL holds a special place for Bangladeshi cricket fans. Local franchise teams, a mix of domestic and overseas players, and closely fought matches make BPL a popular tournament for betting.
IPL is India's top T20 league, but it has a large following in Bangladesh as well. With world-class players in every team, the quality of matches is high and the betting markets are rich.
Beyond those, crickex welcome also has active markets for the T20 World Cup, ICC Champions Trophy and bilateral series. Any Bangladesh Tigers match naturally draws the most attention.
Betting on football and other sports
Alongside cricket, crickex welcome also offers football betting. The market structure for football differs somewhat from cricket — there are generally three possible outcomes (win, draw, loss), so the odds work differently. In T20 cricket there is no draw, meaning only two outcomes are available.
Betting on tennis, badminton or other individual sports is more straightforward — one of two competitors wins and there is no draw. Markets are fewer but odds are easier to analyse.
For those interested in card games, Teen Patti 20-20 is available as a separate section, where you can play online versions of familiar card games from the Indian subcontinent.
Popular cricket betting markets
A cricket match offers far more than just 'who will win'. Here is an overview of seven familiar markets.
Match Winner
Simplest marketPredict which of the two teams will win. You bet on either Team A or Team B — a straightforward two-option market. T20 and ODI matches have no draw, so the market is simple.
Toss Winner
Quick resultThe result is known before the match begins. You bet on which team will win the toss. The odds for each option are usually close to each other.
Top Batsman
Team-basedBet on which batsman will score the most runs for a specific team. You pick one player from that team's list.
Total Runs Over/Under
Score-basedThe bookmaker sets a specific run total, for example 165. You bet on whether the total runs in the match will be over or under that number.
Multi Bet (multiple selections)
High returnCombine multiple matches or markets into a single bet. If all selections are correct the return is much higher, but if any one selection is wrong the entire bet is lost.
Top Wicket-Taker
Bowling-basedBet on which bowler will take the most wickets. Like the top batsman market, this can be team-based or cover the whole match.
Multi bet example
Say three separate selections have odds of 1.50, 1.70 and 1.90. The combined odds for the multi bet would be 1.50 × 1.70 × 1.90 = 4.84 (approximately). On a ৳100 bet, if all selections are correct you would receive ৳484. However, if any one selection is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
Reading odds — three formats
The same market's odds can be written in three different ways. The example below shows a bet on Team A to win, with a stake of ৳200.
| Format | Value | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Stake × odds = total return. ৳200 × 3.00 = ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 stake). |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked. On a ৳200 bet the profit is ৳400, total return ৳600. |
| American | +200 | A plus sign means ৳200 profit on a ৳100 bet. On a ৳200 bet the profit is ৳400. |
Now look at the odds for the favourite (Team B to win) — decimal 1.80, fractional 4/5, American -125. A minus sign means how much you need to bet to make ৳100 profit — here ৳125. A ৳200 bet returns ৳360 in total (profit ৳160).
crickex welcome shows decimal format as the default, which most bettors find easiest to understand.
Quick points
- Decimal odds above 1 mean your stake is included in the return.
- In fractional format, the stake must be added separately.
- American minus odds mean that team is the favourite.
- All three formats express the same market differently — the underlying information is identical.
- Understanding the odds before placing a bet is helpful.
Live betting during the match
In-play or live betting lets you place bets while the match is in progress. In cricket this is particularly interesting — every wicket, every big hit or every maiden over instantly changes the odds.
For example, if Team A loses 3 wickets in the powerplay, their odds of winning will rise quickly and Team B's odds will shorten. If the run rate is low at the 15th over, the odds in the target market will also shift.
Live betting requires the ability to make quick decisions, as markets can be suspended within seconds — especially when a wicket falls or on the last ball of an over.
Live market updates can be followed in real time in the crickex welcome Bet section, helping bettors make decisions at the right moment.
Some useful habits for betting
The best way to enjoy cricket betting is to treat it as entertainment. Building a few practical habits helps keep the experience well-managed.
- Set a budget: Decide in advance how much you will spend for each match or week and stay within that limit.
- Know one market well: Instead of jumping into many types of bets at once, start with simpler markets like match winner or over/under.
- Do not rush in live betting: Watch the match for a while to understand the flow before placing a bet.
- Keep records: Noting how well you do in each market makes it easier to understand your preferences and weak spots.
- Take breaks: Continuous betting reduces focus. A break helps you think more clearly before the next decision.
