bazi Cricket Betting — Smart Bets on BPL, IPL and International Matches
From T20 to Test cricket — bet across multiple markets in every format. bazi brings you live in-play betting, decimal and fractional odds, and easy deposits via mobile wallet, all in one place.
Cricket's Three Formats and Your Favourite Tournaments
For fans in Bangladesh, cricket is more than a game — it is a celebration every season. bazi offers betting markets across three distinct formats, each with its own characteristics.
T20 Twenty-Over Contest
Runs and wickets packed into twenty overs — T20 format creates the most active betting market. In BPL and the T20 World Cup, odds shift after every over, making live betting particularly popular.
ODI Fifty-Over Strategy
In One Day Internationals, innings run across fifty overs. Betting markets are shaped by run rate and wicket count through the middle overs. Bangladesh Tigers regularly take part in ICC tournament ODI matches.
Test Five-Day Test
Test cricket can end in a draw, so the market has three outcomes — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw — all reflected in the betting odds. Odds can shift significantly after each day's play.
BPL, IPL and International Matches
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) holds special appeal for local fans, as familiar players and teams compete throughout the tournament. The Indian Premier League (IPL) and the ICC T20 World Cup are also active betting seasons on bazi. If you are interested in football and other sports, bazi Bet's sportsbook offers a separate, wide-ranging market — covering many leagues beyond cricket.
Cricket betting runs continuously throughout a match — odds shift during each innings, partnership, and powerplay. Just as odds change after a goal in football, in cricket they adjust immediately when a wicket falls or a big six is hit.
Popular Betting Markets and Examples
On bazi, you can bet on multiple markets within a single match. Understanding each market separately makes for a clearer betting experience.
Match Winner
Which team will win — Team A or Team B. There are no draws in T20, so you are betting on one of two outcomes. Example: Team A at odds 1.45, Team B at odds 2.75 — a ৳1,000 bet on Team B returns ৳2,750 if they win.
Simplest MarketToss Betting
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The odds for both teams are usually close to equal, around 1.90. Example: a ৳500 bet on Team A to win the toss returns around ৳950 if successful.
Pre-Match MarketTop Run Scorer
Bet on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings. This market is available within a single team or across both teams. Players in good form generally have lower odds.
Skill-Based MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
This market is about whether the total runs in a match or innings will be above or below a set number. Example: target is 165 runs — if you pick Over, the bet wins when 166 or more runs are scored.
Number-Based MarketNumber of Wickets
Both types of market are available — how many wickets a bowler will take in a given match, or at how many wickets a team will be all out. Pitch conditions and weather affect this market.
Bowling-Focused MarketMulti Bet
Combining multiple selections into a single bet. Example: three selections with decimal odds of 1.40, 1.60 and 1.70 — total odds 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.70 = 3.81; a ৳100 bet returns ৳381 if all win. If one loses, the entire bet is lost.
Higher-Risk MarketHow to Read Odds — Three Formats
Cricket betting on bazi uses three common odds formats. Each expresses the same probability — only the way it is written differs.
| Format | Team A (to win) | Team B (favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 4/5 |
| American | +150 | -125 |
Example 1 — ৳500 bet on Team A (decimal 2.50)
Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150. If Team A wins, ৳1,250 is returned (৳750 profit + ৳500 stake). If Team A loses, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — ৳500 bet on favourite Team B (decimal 1.80)
Decimal 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American -125 (American minus odds show how much you need to bet to win ৳100). If Team B wins, ৳900 is returned (৳400 profit + ৳500 stake).
Live In-Play Betting — Bets During the Match
bazi lets you place live bets while the match is in progress. This is quite different from pre-match betting — because the situation changes after every ball.
What happens when a wicket falls? When a key batsman is dismissed, the odds for the batting team to win shift immediately — meaning a bet on that team may look less risky, but the potential return drops.
Last-over pressure: If a team needs 25 runs from the final five overs with 6 wickets in hand, their odds will be low. But if two wickets fall in quick succession, the odds can flip fast.
There is little time to decide in live betting. bazi's interface works on mobile, so you can place bets quickly from your smartphone via the bazi App.
Betting on Football and Other Sports — How It Differs from Cricket
There are no draws in T20 matches, but in football a draw is a common result. So the match winner market in football usually has three outcomes — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw. This is why the odds for each outcome in football are distributed differently compared to cricket.
In Test cricket a draw is possible, so this format creates a three-outcome market similar to football. Cricket also has many smaller markets — overs and wickets — which are comparable to goals in football but more numerous.
Football fans can place multi bets on club and national team matches in the same way. A sports betting platform covers markets across different sports — cricket, football, kabaddi, badminton, all in one place.
Key Differences at a Glance
- T20/ODI — no draw, two outcomes
- Test and football — three outcomes possible
- Cricket has more in-match markets
- Football matches are shorter, odds more stable
- Multi bets apply to both sports
A Few Practical Points Before You Start Betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — not a guaranteed way to make money. Keeping the following in mind will make for a better experience.
Set a budget
Decide how much you will bet in each session before you start. Do not go beyond that limit — whether you are winning or losing.
Start with one market
Begin with the match winner market. Once you understand the format and how teams are performing, move on to other markets.
Compare odds
Odds for the same match can differ at different times. Check the odds before the match starts and again after the pitch report is released.
Take your time in live betting
In-play requires quick decisions. It is better not to place large bets all at once out of emotion.
Know the responsible gaming guidelines
Read the responsible gaming guidelines on bazi. Know your limits and keep betting enjoyable.
