mostplay Cricket Betting — from the Tigers to BPL, a new chance on every ball
From T20 to Test, BPL to IPL — bet at live odds on every format. Cricket betting at mostplay is not just watching the score; it is a chance to put your own analysis to work on every over.
Three Formats of Cricket and Major Tournaments
Each format has its own character — and betting strategy changes accordingly.
T20 — Fast-Paced Betting
BPL IPL T20 World CupThis 20-over format moves the fastest of all. Markets shift quickly as Bangladesh's teams perform in BPL and the world's best cricketers take the field in IPL. The T20 World Cup brings together the top ICC sides. For betting, this is the most fast-moving format.
ODI — A Game of Balance
50 Overs ICCIn the fifty-over one-day format, a match can swing several times. After the first innings, market odds typically see a significant shift. The Tigers' ODI performances are especially important to Bangladesh supporters.
Test — A Test of Patience
5 Days Test SeriesIn five-day Test cricket, betting markets run for the long haul too. Pitch conditions, weather and bowlers' form shift the odds with every session. The longer format gives more time for analysis.
Cricket fans in Bangladesh are most active on mostplay during the BPL season. The same enthusiasm carries over to IPL and international matches. If you are interested in football betting alongside cricket, you will find all sports markets in the mostplay Bet section.
Football and Other Sports Betting
Beyond cricket, mostplay also offers betting on football, tennis, badminton and many other sports. There are, however, some key differences between cricket and football betting.
In cricket betting, markets shift far more during a match — every wicket and every six directly affects the odds. There are separate innings and session-based markets that do not exist in football.
In football, markets generally run on a single 90-minute result. There are three possible outcomes — win, draw or loss — which is different from a two-team cricket match. Markets on the time of a goal, the half-time score or cards are also specific to football.
Live in-play betting is available for both — odds update in real time as the match goes on.
Popular Betting Markets in Cricket
These are the markets with the most bets placed at mostplay.
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which team will win the match. Choose between Team A or Team B — just two options.
Toss Winner
A separate market on which team will win the toss. The result of this market is known before the match even starts.
Top Batsman
Who will be the highest run-scorer for their team? Pick who will score the most runs in a given team's innings.
Total Runs Over/Under
Will the total runs in an innings be more than a set number (Over) or fewer (Under)? Choose one of the two options.
Multi Bet
Combine the outcomes of multiple matches or events into a single bet. If all selections are correct, the return multiplies — but if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Wicket Markets
How many wickets will fall within a set number of overs, or how many wickets will a bowler take — these markets are especially popular in T20.
How Odds Are Written in Three Formats
mostplay displays odds in decimal format by default, but fractional and American formats are also common. All three express the same probability — just written differently.
Example 1 — one bet in three formats:
Say you are calculating the return on a ৳200 bet if Team A wins. The same odds can be written three ways: Decimal 2.25, Fractional 5/4, American +125. If Team A wins, you receive ৳450 (৳250 profit + ৳200 original stake). If Team A loses, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — odds for the favourite:
When Team B is the favourite, the odds are lower. Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200. A negative American odds figure means how much you need to stake to win ৳100 profit — here ৳200. On a ৳200 bet, if Team B wins the return is ৳300 (৳100 profit).
When a Wicket Falls, Odds Change — Live Betting Strategy
Live in-play betting in cricket is a different experience. You can place bets even after the match has started, and odds change in real time with every ball.
If a batting team loses 2–3 wickets quickly, their chance of winning drops and their odds go up. Conversely, the team taking wickets will see their odds shorten. After every over, the odds on total runs markets also shift depending on the run rate.
A few things to keep in mind during live betting: if runs flow in the powerplay, Under odds drop fast; if scoring slows in the middle overs, Over odds come down. The death overs (last 5 overs) are the most unpredictable.
To ensure responsible gaming, keep to your budget during live betting and avoid placing large bets on impulse.
