Cricket Betting at dbbet — Bet on BPL, IPL and International Matches
Markets across every format from T20 to Test, real-time odds and support directly in Bengali — all in one place at dbbet.
Cricket Formats and Competitions
Cricket is Bangladesh's most popular sport, and betting on it is most rewarding when you understand the formats. dbbet offers betting across three main formats — T20, ODI and Test.
T20
In this twenty-over format, matches shift quickly. Every over in tournaments like BPL and IPL can create a new situation, which makes live betting that much more intense.
ODI
This fifty-over format is more about strategy and patience. ODI matches in the ICC World Cup and bilateral series offer many betting markets — from the toss to top batsman.
Test
In this five-day long format, you can bet on wicket, innings and session-based markets. The match-winner market is the most popular in international Test matches.
The BPL is the tournament closest to Bangladeshi fans. Each season, dbbet opens a range of markets for BPL matches. You can also bet on India's IPL and various ICC international series. dbbet gives you the chance to support the Bangladesh Tigers while also betting with a clear strategy.
Football and Other Sports Betting
Alongside cricket, football betting is also popular at dbbet. Football matches end in ninety minutes and a draw is a normal result, so markets are structured differently. In T20 cricket there is no draw, which gives odds a different structure.
In football, the 1X2 market (Team A wins / Draw / Team B wins) is the most familiar, whereas in T20 and ODI cricket there are generally only two outcomes — one team wins or the other. Keeping this difference in mind is important when planning your betting strategy. dbbet also offers Kabaddi and other sports markets.

Popular Betting Markets
At dbbet you can bet on multiple markets within a cricket match. Each market works a little differently — some are straightforward, others require more analysis.
Match Winner
A bet on the simple question of which team will win. Example: in a T20 between Team A and Team B, if you pick Team B and Team B wins, your bet is successful.
Toss Winner
Which team will win the toss before the match starts — this market is based purely on an equal fifty-fifty chance, with no connection to the game itself.
Top Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs — it is worth considering a team's best batter's form and the pitch conditions when choosing this market.
Total Runs Over/Under
Whether the total runs in a match will be above or below a set number — pitch conditions and a team's batting depth are relevant here. Example: whether total runs will exceed 150.
First Wicket
In which over or at what score will the first wicket fall — this market is particularly lively in T20 because wickets are more likely to fall during the powerplay.
Multi Bet
Combining multiple selections into one bet. Example: placing bets at odds of 1.40, 1.60 and 1.90 across three separate markets gives combined odds of around 4.26 — if all three win, a ৳100 bet returns ৳426, but if any one loses, the entire bet is lost.
Betting Exchange
On an exchange you can bet not just against the betting site but also against other bettors. BACK means betting on a win, LAY means betting on a loss — it is a bit more complex but offers an alternative method for experienced bettors.
Handicap Betting
The weaker team is given an advantage to level the gap between the two sides. Example: if Team A is given a -10 run handicap, Team A must win by more than 10 runs for the bet to succeed.
How to Read Odds
dbbet displays odds in three formats — Decimal, Fractional and American. All three show the same information, just presented differently.
| Format | Odds for Team A to Win | Return on ৳500 Bet |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake) |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳1,500 (same result) |
| American | +200 | ৳1,500 (same result) |
To explain the example above: Decimal 3.00, Fractional 2/1 and American +200 for Team A to win are all the same odds. A ৳500 bet returns a total of ৳1,500 if it wins (৳1,000 profit plus the ৳500 stake); if it loses, the ৳500 is gone.
Another example for a favourite: Team B's odds to win are Decimal 1.50, Fractional 1/2, American -200 (the minus sign means how much you need to bet to win ৳100). A ৳500 bet on Team B returns ৳750 if they win (৳250 profit).

Live Betting — Bet While the Match is On
Odds shift when a wicket falls
The biggest advantage of live in-play betting is that odds update with every moment of the match. If a team loses three wickets in the powerplay, their odds to win rise sharply, meaning a higher potential return on a bet — but also greater risk.
New markets open after every over — how many runs will be scored in the next over, when will the next wicket fall, and so on. This fits cricket well, given how much the game can change.
Remember, live betting calls for quick decisions. Take time to read the situation before placing a bet. Treat betting as entertainment — follow the responsible gaming guidelines.
A few things to keep in mind during live betting:
- Pitch conditions (whether the surface suits spin or pace) affect the odds.
- If the run rate exceeds the target in the final overs, the favourite's odds shorten.
- In rain or DLS situations, markets may be temporarily suspended.
- In T20, odds change fastest in the last five overs.
- In Test matches, session-based markets are the more familiar way to bet.
Some Practical Tips Before You Start Betting
Set a budget
Decide how much you will bet before each match. Do not chase losses by placing larger bets to recover what you have lost.
Start with one market
If you are a new bettor, focus on the match winner market first. Betting on many markets at once can get complicated quickly.
Understand the format before betting
Even a low-scoring T20 can go either way; in Test matches the pitch tends to break up on the final day — understand how each format naturally plays out.
Use multi bets carefully
Multi bets offer higher potential returns, but one losing selection costs you the entire bet. It is better not to stake too much on a multi bet.
Bet with analysis, not emotion
Even if you have a favourite team, think objectively when betting. Betting is for entertainment — if things do not go your way, accept the outcome rather than getting frustrated.
Take regular breaks
Rather than betting on match after match without stopping, take breaks in between. Following the responsible gaming guidelines is important for everyone.
