Cricket betting on bet 77 — from T20 to Test, a new opportunity on every ball
Bet on BPL, IPL and T20 World Cup matches on the bet 77 platform. From match winner to live in-play — follow every moment of cricket more closely.
The three cricket formats and how betting differs
T20, ODI and Test — the type of bet and the approach vary across all three formats.
Twenty20
Matches in this 20-over format move fast. T20 match markets are the most active during tournaments like BPL and IPL. A single six or wicket can shift the odds instantly, which is why live betting is especially popular here.
One Day International
The pace of play is comparatively slower in the 50-over format. Here you can plan your bets by watching the team's position mid-match, the run rate and partnerships. ODI match markets tend to be quite large at ICC events.
Five-Day Test
In this five-day format, a draw is a valid result, so there are three markets — Team A wins, Team B wins, draw. Pitch conditions, weather and session-by-session changes make betting more complex. This is the most strategic format in cricket.
Competitions popular with Bangladeshi fans
For Bangladeshi cricket fans, BPL is the closest tournament to home. Watching local and overseas players compete in every match makes betting all the more enjoyable.
Alongside that, IPL generates huge interest every year. Enthusiasm runs high for Bangladesh Tigers matches at the T20 World Cup and other ICC events. All these competitions are available to bet on in one place at bet 77.
Beyond international matches, there are also opportunities to bet on domestic T20 tournament games. Each tournament has a variety of markets open, giving you another reason to follow cricket more closely.
7 popular betting markets with examples
Let's look at how each market works with a simple example.
Match Winner
The simplest market — which team will win? Example: in a T20 match between Team A and Team B, you bet on Team B. If Team B wins, your bet is successful; if Team A wins, you lose. There is no draw in T20 or ODI, so you choose one of two options.
Toss Winner
You can bet on the toss result before the match starts. Example: either Team A or Team B will win the toss. This is a perfectly even-odds market because the toss does not depend on either team's skill.
Top Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in a specific match — you can pick any batsman in this market. Example: you bet that Team A's best batsman will be the top scorer. If he scores the most runs in his team, the bet wins.
Total Runs — Over/Under
Will the total runs in a match or innings be more (over) or less (under) than a set number — the result of the match does not matter in this market. Example: a line of 160 runs is set for a T20 innings — if you think the pitch is batting-friendly, you bet "over".
First Over Runs
This smaller market is just about how many runs will be scored in the first over — you do not need to rely on the whole match. Example: will more than 6 runs be scored in the first over — if the openers tend to be aggressive, you can bet "over".
Multi Bet (multiple selections)
A multi bet combines bets from multiple matches into one. Example: you bet that Team A, Team B and Team B will win three separate matches — three selections combined into one multi bet. If all three are correct, the odds multiply and the return increases, but if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Series Winner
A bet on which team will win a full series (such as a three-match or five-match series). Example: in a three-match series between Team A and Team B, you bet that Team A will win the series — the series winner is determined by the result of each individual match.
How to read and understand odds
The same odds are written in three different formats — decimal, fractional and American. The decimal format is used most on bet 77.
Three formats in one example
Say you bet ৳1,000 on Team A to win. The same odds are written in three formats:
| Format | Odds | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | Total return is 2.5 times the stake |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 stake |
In this example, if you win a ৳1,000 bet, your total return is ৳2,500 (৳1,500 profit + ৳1,000 original stake). If you lose, you lose ৳1,000.
Shorter odds mean higher probability
Say Team B is the favourite with decimal odds of 1.80 — that is 4/5 in fractional format and -125 in American format. This means you need to stake ৳125 to win ৳100. If you win a ৳1,000 bet, your total return is ৳1,800 (৳800 profit). A negative American odds figure always indicates the favourite.
Higher odds mean a higher potential return
An outcome considered less likely carries higher odds — decimal 2.50 or above. Underdog teams generally have higher odds because their chances of winning are considered lower. That said, betting should always be treated as entertainment — higher odds do not guarantee a win.
Live in-play betting — new odds on every ball
Odds shift constantly while a match is in progress. Betting at the right moment is what makes live betting interesting.
When a wicket falls, the odds change — and so does your opportunity
The odds before a match starts are not the same after the first wicket falls. If the batting team loses two quick wickets early on, their odds of winning lengthen (meaning the probability goes down). Equally, the bowling team's odds shorten.
In live betting you can place a new bet at any point during the match — how many runs will be scored in an over, when the next wicket will fall, or what the total runs will be at the end of the innings.
The situation changes rapidly in the last five overs of a T20 match. Live betting markets are most active during this period. Keep in mind that the quick pace of change makes it important to stay level-headed when making decisions in live betting.

Football and other sports betting — what is different?
Beyond cricket, bet 77 also has markets for other sports.
Football Betting
Three outcomes are possible in football — home team wins, away team wins, or draw. This is different from T20/ODI cricket where there is no draw. In football, bets on the number of goals (total goals over/under) and whether both teams will score are particularly popular markets. You can also bet on a combination of half-time and full-time results.
Tennis, Kabaddi and more
Tennis has separate markets for each set and game — live betting here is much more fast-moving. Markets are also available on local sports like Kabaddi. Each sport has its own rules and market types, but the basic method of reading odds is the same — decimal, fractional or American.
Beyond cricket, you can find details on markets and betting options for a range of other sports on the bet 77 Bet page. Those who prefer casino games can play live table games and slots at bet 77 Casino.
Some practical tips before you start betting
Keep these points in mind to enjoy betting as entertainment.
Set a budget
Set aside a fixed amount before each session. Do not bet more than that amount. Betting is for entertainment, not a source of income.
Understand the format before you bet
The odds structure differs between T20 and Test markets. Take a moment to read up on which type of market suits which format. In particular, do not overlook the draw market in Test cricket.
Be careful with multi bets
Multi bets offer higher returns but also carry higher risk. If even one of three selections is wrong, you lose the entire bet. It is better to keep the number of selections in a multi bet low.
Take breaks
Do not bet for long stretches at a time. If you lose, take a break rather than immediately trying to recover. Responsible betting means knowing your own limits.
