Cricket Betting at mostplay — top markets and live odds for BPL, T20 and ODI
mostplay brings cricket fans in Bangladesh dozens of betting markets including Match Winner, Toss and Top Batsman. Odds are available from before the match starts right up to the final ball.
Cricket Formats and Competitions — how betting differs for each
In Bangladesh, cricket is more than a sport — it is a passion. From BPL to the ICC T20 World Cup, each format calls for a different approach to betting. mostplay covers all three major formats.
Twenty20
The fastest format of the game. BPL and IPL are played in this format. The match situation can shift at any moment, which is why live betting is most popular here.
One-Day Cricket
In the 50-over format, Top Batsman and Total Runs markets are widely played. The ICC ODI World Cup and bilateral series fall under this format.
Test Cricket
In the five-day format, three results are possible including a draw, so the odds structure is different. There is also the option to bet over individual sessions and wickets.
Bangladesh Tigers and Local Competitions
Bangladesh's biggest domestic tournament, the BPL, generates enormous interest across the country every season. The competition among teams from Dhaka and other cities offers a variety of betting options. On the international stage, the Bangladesh Tigers compete in the T20 World Cup, ICC ODI World Cup and various bilateral series — every match is available on mostplay.
During the IPL season, Bangladeshi users also show strong interest in betting on those matches. Markets for all these competitions are regularly available on mostplay.
Football and Other Sports Betting
mostplay is not limited to cricket. Football betting is also popular here, especially during the FIFA World Cup, UEFA Champions League and Premier League season.
The main difference between cricket and football betting is the number of outcomes. Football has three results — Home Win, Away Win and Draw. ODI and T20 matches generally cannot end in a draw, so odds are set around two outcomes. Test cricket, like football, has three possible results.
In football, Handicap, Over/Under Goals and Both Teams to Score are common markets. The cricket equivalents are Run-Line Handicap and Total Runs Over/Under. However, each sport has its own terminology and rules that need to be understood separately.
Those who prefer casino games can enjoy live casino and slots at mostplay Casino. All types of gaming are available on one platform.
Football Betting
FIFA, UEFA, Premier League — multiple markets available including three-outcome markets.
Home/Away/Draw Over/Under GoalsPopular Betting Markets — explained
Once you understand how the most commonly used cricket betting markets work, making decisions becomes easier.
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which of the two teams will win. Example: if Team A has longer odds, the payout is higher.
T20 ODI TestToss Winner
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. Both outcomes have roughly equal probability, so the odds are usually close to each other.
Pre-MatchTop Batsman
Choose which batter from a given team will score the most runs in a specific innings or match. If your pick scores the most, you win.
Innings-Based Match-BasedTotal Runs Over/Under
Choose whether the total runs in an innings will be above (Over) or below (Under) a set number. Example: if the total runs exceed 170, "Over" wins.
T20 ODIMulti Bet
Combining bets from multiple matches or markets creates a Multi Bet. All selections must be correct to win — if even one is wrong, the entire bet loses.
Multiple Matches Higher ReturnsMethod of First Wicket
In this specialist market you bet on how the first wicket will fall — run out, bowled or caught. The odds are comparatively higher.
Specialist MarketA Multi Bet example
Say you place bets across three different matches. The odds for each are 1.40, 1.60 and 1.90 (decimal). Combined, the total odds are 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.90 = 4.26 (approximately). So a ৳100 bet returns ৳426 if all three selections are correct. But if any one of them loses, the full ৳100 is gone. This example is only to illustrate the calculation — it is not a guarantee of profit.
Team A and Team B are generic names — not information about any specific team or match. Betting is for entertainment, not as a means of income.
How to Read and Understand Odds
Three main odds formats appear in cricket betting. mostplay generally uses the decimal format, but it helps to know the other two as well.
| Format | Example (Team A wins) | How to read it |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | Total return = Stake × Odds. A ৳200 bet returns ৳450 (profit ৳250). |
| Fractional | 5/4 | ৳5 profit for every ৳4 staked. A ৳200 bet gives ৳250 profit + ৳200 stake = ৳450 total. |
| American | +125 | A plus sign means ৳125 profit on a ৳100 bet. A ৳200 bet gives ৳250 profit. |
Same odds in all three formats — Example 1
Team A's winning odds: Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. On a ৳200 stake, if Team A wins you receive ৳450 (৳250 profit + ৳200 original stake). If Team A loses, ৳200 is gone. All three formats express the same risk and reward — only the notation differs.
Favourite's odds — Example 2
If Team B is the favourite, the odds are lower: Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200. A negative American odds figure means you need to bet ৳200 to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳200 stake, if Team B wins the total return is ৳300 (৳100 profit).
Live In-Play Betting — odds shift as the game unfolds
The biggest difference between standard pre-match betting and live in-play betting is that odds update every moment. If a team loses quick wickets in the first five overs, their odds to win lengthen — because their chances have dropped.
Conversely, if a strong batter is at the crease and the run rate is comfortably ahead of target, the odds shorten. In-play betting requires you to understand these shifts before making a decision.
Some Practical Tips for Betting
Betting is for entertainment — not a guaranteed way to make money. A few habits can help keep the experience enjoyable.
Set a budget
Decide in advance how much you will spend on betting each week or month. Do not go beyond that limit. Follow the responsible gaming guidelines.
Choose markets carefully
Match Winner and Total Runs Over/Under are relatively straightforward markets. Beginners can start here. Make sure you fully understand specialist markets before getting into them.
Be cautious with Multi Bets
Multi Bets offer higher returns but also carry higher risk. If any selection is wrong, everything is lost. The more selections you add, the lower the chance of winning.
Take your time with live betting
Odds move fast in in-play betting. Analyse the situation before deciding — do not rush.
