cx Cricket Betting — Odds on Every Match from BPL to T20 World Cup
Follow Bangladesh's favourite sport more closely. At cx, you'll find a range of markets across BPL, IPL and international T20 and ODI matches — from match winner to live betting.
Formats and Tournaments
Three Cricket Formats and Major Tournaments
T20 — The Fastest and Most Popular
T20 cricket is the heart of cricket betting. Odds shift with every over, and a falling wicket can change the picture in an instant. BPL brings a great opportunity for Bangladeshi cricket fans every year. IPL and the ICC T20 World Cup are also available at cx.
ODI — A Contest of Strategy and Patience
In a fifty-over match, odds move differently at each stage of the innings. A wicket in the powerplay can push a team's odds up considerably. The Bangladesh Tigers' international ODI series always generates strong interest in the local betting market.
Test — A Slow-Burning Drama
In a five-day Test match, the third result — a draw — makes the betting market more complex. Weather, pitch behaviour and batting line-ups all have to be considered together. Odds move more slowly in Test cricket than in T20, but there are more markets available.
Other Sports
Football and Other Sports Betting
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football at cx. In international football there are three possible outcomes — home win, away win and draw — so the odds structure is different from cricket. Cricket tournaments generally have a direct winner (no draws in T20 or ODI), which makes the betting markets simpler.
In football you'll find markets like goal line, corner kicks and both teams to score, which don't exist in cricket. Cricket, on the other hand, has markets like top batsman, total runs, over/under and toss that have no equivalent in football. Understanding these differences matters — each sport has its own strategic considerations.
If you want to combine results from multiple sports in a single bet, visit the cx multi-bet page for full details — it explains step by step how to combine multiple selections and multiply the odds.
Betting Markets
7 Popular Markets and How They Work
Match Winner
Pick which team will win the match before it starts. In T20 and ODI there are no draws, so there are only two options. Example: if Team A wins, your return is calculated according to the set odds.
EasiestToss Betting
You can bet on the toss result before the match begins. Choose whether Team A or Team B will win the toss. The toss is a completely independent event and has no bearing on the match result.
Pre-MatchTop Batsman
Pick which batsman will score the most runs in the match. This market usually features each team's leading batsmen as candidates. You can choose a top batsman from either Team A or Team B.
Individual PerformanceTotal Runs Over/Under
Decide whether the total runs scored in a match or innings will be above or below a set number. For example: will the total runs exceed 160? Your ability to read batting or bowling pitches is useful here.
Total Score BasedPowerplay Runs
Bet on how many runs a team will score in the first six overs. Fielding restrictions during the powerplay encourage batsmen to play aggressively. This market settles quickly — it's done within the first 6 overs of an innings.
Quick ResultTop Wicket-Taker
Pick which bowler will take the most wickets before the match starts. Spinners tend to have the edge on turning pitches, while fast bowlers do better on pace-friendly ones. You can choose a bowler from either Team A or Team B.
Bowler FocusedMulti-Bet — Combining Multiple Markets
You can combine several of the markets above into one multi-bet. If all your selections are correct, the odds multiply and the return can be significant. However, if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost. The cx multi-bet page walks you through how to calculate a multi-bet step by step.
Understanding Odds
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds
The odds for the same match can be displayed in three different formats. You can view odds in any format at cx. Below is a comparison of all three using a real example.
| Odds Format | Team A Value | Team B Value | Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.50 | Total return = stake × odds |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 1/2 | Shows profit only; original stake is separate |
| American | +125 | −200 | + shows profit; − shows how much you need to stake to win 100 |
Example 1 (betting on Team A to win, stake ৳1,000):
Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. If Team A wins, a ৳1,000 stake returns ৳2,250 in total (৳1,250 profit + ৳1,000 original stake). If Team A loses, the full ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 (betting on favourite Team B, stake ৳1,000):
Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American −200. If Team B wins, a ৳1,000 stake returns ৳1,500 in total (৳500 profit). American −200 means you need to stake ৳200 to win ৳100 profit.
Live Betting
In-Play Betting During the Match
In-play betting means you can place bets even after the match has started. In cricket this is particularly engaging because every ball creates a new situation.
When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds rise at that moment because the situation has become harder for them. Conversely, the winning odds for the bowling team shorten. A big shot from the incoming batsman can reverse the picture again.
As the overs progress, the pressure of the run rate increases. If Team A needs a lot of runs in the last five overs, Team B's odds of winning drop sharply. Live betting takes advantage of these moment-to-moment changes.
Betting Tips
Practical Advice for Cricket Betting
Set Your Budget Beforehand
Before each betting session, decide the maximum amount you are willing to spend. Once you reach that amount, stop betting. Betting is a form of entertainment — treating it as a source of income can cause problems. Learn more about responsible betting on the cx responsible gaming page.
Choose Markets That Match the Format
Total runs markets work well in T20 because estimating the run count is more manageable. Evaluating the top batsman market correctly in Test matches is harder — a single innings can change everything. Focusing on the format you know best makes for a more comfortable betting experience.
Compare Odds
Odds for the same match differ across markets. Look at the match winner odds, then notice how they shift in the live market. Pre-match odds and live odds are two completely different experiences.
Read the Betting Terms
Every bet has its own rules. What happens to your bet if a match is abandoned due to rain, and in what circumstances a bet is voided — you'll find full details on cx's terms and conditions page.
Start with Simple Markets as a New Player
Match winner and toss betting are the easiest to understand. It's better to learn multi-bet and live betting gradually. Placing bets across too many markets at once makes things complicated.
