Cricket Betting at yesbet apps — Top Markets from BPL to T20 World Cup
yesbet apps offers cricket fans in Bangladesh multiple markets — including Match Winner, Toss, and Top Batsman — both before and during matches.
Cricket Formats and Favourite Competitions
T20 Cricket
In this twenty-over format, matches can turn quickly. The calculation can change with every ball — which is why T20 is the most popular format among bettors. BPL, IPL, and the ICC T20 World Cup are the crown events of this format.
ODI Cricket
The fifty-over contest involves more strategy and patience. Odds shift at different stages of the innings, making mid-match bets quite interesting. The World Cup and bilateral series are played in this format.
Test Cricket
In a five-day match, pitch behaviour and weather play a big role. From a betting perspective, a draw is a possible result — something that does not exist in T20 or ODI. This difference is worth keeping in mind when choosing markets.
Cricket Holds a Special Place in Bangladesh
From Dhaka's galleries to tea stalls in the villages — cricket is woven into the emotions of people across this country. When BPL begins, the streets go quiet, and when the Tigers take the field, the whole nation holds its breath. Cricket betting adds an extra dimension to that passion — every over, every wicket feels that much more significant.
yesbet apps covers BPL, IPL, and international match markets. Those who are also interested in football can find football and other sports markets at yesbet apps Bet.
Football and Other Sports
After cricket, football is the most popular sport in Bangladesh. During European leagues or the World Cup, the number of bettors rises noticeably. In football betting, a draw is a regular outcome — so a three-result (1X2) market exists, whereas in limited-overs cricket only two outcomes are possible.
It is worth keeping this key difference in mind when choosing markets. Cricket has specific markets like runs, wickets, and powerplay that do not exist in football. Football, on the other hand, offers markets such as corners, cards, or both teams to score.

Popular Betting Markets
Cricket betting offers various types of markets. Below is a brief introduction to seven familiar markets.
Match Winner
Bet on which team will win. Two outcomes in T20 and ODI, three in Test (Team A, Team B, or Draw). A straightforward market, making it the first choice for newcomers.
Toss Betting
Bet on which team will win the toss. The result is entirely random, so odds for both teams are usually roughly equal. It is settled before the main match begins.
Top Batsman
You need to pick who will score the most runs for a specific team. You can choose from multiple players, so odds are generally attractive.
Total Runs (Over/Under)
You choose whether the total runs in a match or an innings will be above or below a set number. The pitch type and the team's recent form play a particularly important role here.
Multi Bet (Multiple Selections)
Multiple bets across different matches or markets are combined at the same time. For example, three selections with decimal odds of 1.40, 1.70, and 1.80 give a combined odds of 4.28 (rounded) — a winning ৳100 bet returns ৳428. However, if any one selection loses, the entire bet is void.
Top Wicket Taker
Bet on which bowler will take the most wickets. This market gets more attention on pace-friendly pitches or in spin-friendly conditions.
First Over Runs
You choose whether the runs scored in the first over of the match will be above or below a specific number. This market settles quickly, making it popular in in-play betting as well.
How to Read Odds
Three Formats, Same Value
Cricket betting odds are written in three formats. Decimal format is most common on platforms in Bangladesh. Below, a single example is used to explain — Team A can win, ৳500 stake:
All three represent the same value. A winning bet returns ৳1,250 (৳750 profit + ৳500 original stake). A losing bet means ৳500 is gone.
How Favourite Odds Look
If Team B is the strong favourite, their odds will be much lower. For example: Team B to win at 1.25 decimal, 1/4 fractional, -400 American. A negative American odds figure means how much you need to stake to win ৳100 — here, ৳400. On a ৳500 bet, a win returns ৳625 (৳125 profit).
Cricket Match Winner: Calculating in Decimal
In a limited-overs match — Team A odds 1.45, Team B odds 2.75. A ৳1,000 bet on Team B returns ৳2,750 if Team B wins (৳1,750 profit). If Team A wins, the full ৳1,000 is lost.
These figures are for illustration only — live odds on an actual match change every moment. Betting is for entertainment — there is no guarantee of winning.
Live Betting — During the Match
In-Play Betting LIVE
You can place bets even after a match has started — this is live or in-play betting. In cricket, odds change with every wicket and at the end of every over.
What Happens When a Wicket Falls
When an important batter from Team A gets out, their odds of winning suddenly rise and Team B's odds come down. An in-play bettor can watch this shift and make their decision accordingly.
Odds Update After Each Over
If few runs are scored in the powerplay, pressure builds on the batting team and their odds may rise. Conversely, after a big over they can become the favourite. This constant movement is what makes live betting distinctive.
When Markets Close
Markets are closed for a few seconds before each ball or over. No new bets are accepted during this time — the market reopens once the result has been processed.
A Few Things to Know Before Betting
Set Your Budget First
Betting is an entertainment activity — decide in advance how much you can afford to spend. It is best not to rely on winnings as a source of income.
Start with One Market
If you are new, start with the Match Winner or Toss market. Once you are comfortable, moving to other markets becomes easier.
Be Careful with Multi Bets
In a multi bet, if one selection loses, everything is lost. Three selections at 1.40 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.28 — a ৳100 bet could return ৳428, but all selections must be correct.
Take Regular Breaks
It is best not to bet for a long stretch without a break. Taking a short break after each match helps you make decisions with a clearer head.
