yesbet Cricket Betting — Bet on All Major Matches from BPL, IPL and T20 to Tests
yesbet brings cricket fans in Bangladesh a full range of markets — Match Winner, live in-play, and specialist cricket markets. The action on the pitch is now on your screen.
Cricket's Three Formats and Major Competitions
The first step to understanding cricket betting is knowing which format is being played. T20, ODI and Test cricket each have their own pace and character, and markets and odds are structured differently for each.
T20
The fastest format. Each team has just 20 overs, so run rate and sudden changes affect odds quickly. BPL and IPL are the most popular tournaments in this format — both have a strong following among Bangladeshi fans.
One-Day International
Each team bats 50 overs. Less intense than T20, but with greater tactical depth. There is always special interest across Bangladesh in how the Bangladesh Tigers perform in the ICC ODI World Cup and bilateral series.
Test Cricket
In this five-day format, a draw is a separate result — so the betting market is three-outcome based. Pitch, weather and the progress of each innings shift odds gradually. It is a different experience for patient bettors.
Why the Major Tournaments Matter
BPL is Bangladesh's own home tournament — every match is lively with a mix of local and overseas stars. IPL is one of the most talked-about T20 leagues in the world, followed closely by Bangladeshi fans. The T20 World Cup and other ICC events bring international-level competition.
yesbet covers matches from all these competitions. Pre-match markets open before a match starts, and live odds continue to update while the match is in progress.
Cricket alongside Football and Other Sports
yesbet is not limited to cricket. Football betting gets equal coverage — across the Premier League, La Liga, and international tournaments, you can find not just Match Winner but also special markets like corners, cards, assists and scorers.
The key difference between cricket and football betting is that a format like T20 can shift odds very rapidly during live play, while in football odds tend to stay relatively steady until a goal is scored. Test cricket, with the possibility of a draw, creates a three-outcome market — just like football.
For anyone who wants to go beyond sports betting and try casino games, yesbet Casino has a full collection of slots and live table games.
7 Popular Cricket Betting Markets
Each market has its own character — see at a glance how each one works.
Match Winner
Which team will win the match — Team A or Team B? In T20 and ODI, only two outcomes are possible. In Tests, a draw is also an option.
Most PopularToss Winner
Which team will win the toss before the match starts? The outcome of this market is independent of how the match is played.
Quick ResultTop Batsman
Who will score the most runs for a specific team in the match? This is a player-focused market — batting form and pitch conditions are relevant.
Player MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
Will the total runs in an innings be above (Over) or below (Under) a set number? For example, if the line is 160, you bet on whether the score will be above or below that.
Totals MarketTop Bowler
Who will take the most wickets? Information about pace conditions and spin-friendly pitches is useful when deciding on this market.
Bowler MarketMulti Bet
Combine multiple selections into a single bet — for example, the Match Winner from three different matches on the same day. Odds multiply if every selection is correct.
Combo BettingHandicap Betting
When there is a gap in strength between two teams, the weaker team is given a notional advantage to level the market. For example, giving Team A a -1.5 over handicap means they need to be ahead after the handicap is applied for the bet to win. The core idea is to make the two teams "equal" on paper.
How to Read Odds — Three Formats
Odds are written in three different formats — Decimal, Fractional and American. yesbet generally uses Decimal format, which is the easiest to read.
The example below shows the same odds in all three formats. Suppose you are betting on Team A to win:
| Format | Written as | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | Total return of ৳2.50 per ৳1 bet (including the original stake) |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit for every ৳2 bet |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet (plus sign means underdog) |
Working Example 1 — Team A (Underdog)
Decimal odds of 2.50 on Team A to win (Fractional 3/2, American +150). On a ৳200 bet — if Team A wins: total return ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 original stake). If Team A loses: ৳200 is gone.
Working Example 2 — Team B (Favourite)
If Team B is the favourite, odds are 1.80 (Fractional 4/5, American −125). American minus odds mean — a ৳125 bet returns ৳100 profit. On a ৳200 bet, if Team B wins the total return is ৳360 (৳160 profit).
In a Multi Bet, odds multiply — 3 selections at 1.50 × 1.60 × 1.80 = 4.32 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳432 if all selections are correct. If even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
Live In-Play Betting — Odds Change with Every Wicket
Betting while the match is in progress — or in-play betting — is the most dynamic part of modern cricket betting. Odds update instantly after every wicket, at the end of every over, or following a big boundary.
Say Team A is struggling at 5 wickets down after 15 overs in a T20 — at that point Team A's odds to win the match will rise, and Team B's odds will fall. Taking part in this shifting market makes you follow the flow of the match much more closely.
In-play betting requires quick decisions, because markets sometimes close temporarily — especially at the moment a wicket falls. For the full live betting experience on yesbet, the yesbet App gives easy mobile access.
- If the batting team is ahead during the Powerplay (overs 1–6), their odds to win will shorten.
- In the death overs (17–20), rapid scoring or a collapse causes large odds movements.
- In Tests, if spinners gain more influence on a fifth-day pitch, both the draw and winner odds will shift.
Some Practical Advice Before You Start Betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — not a guaranteed way to make money. Every bet can be won or lost. Following a few simple guidelines helps keep the experience positive.
- Set a budget. Decide in advance how much you are willing to spend on entertainment — and do not go beyond that limit. The Responsible Gaming page has detailed guidance on this.
- Understand the format before betting. T20, ODI and Test have different rules — knowing the format before choosing a market is important.
- Be careful with Multi Bets. Higher odds come with higher risk — if one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
- No rushing in live betting. Odds change fast — but making decisions with a clear head gives you a better experience.
- Read the terms and conditions. Going through the Terms and Conditions before you start betting is a good habit.
- Do not place too many bets in one day. Rather than covering many markets at once, focus on 2–3.
