Cricket's three formats — how betting differs across them
Cricket is played in three main formats. Each has its own pace and tactics, so the betting markets available in each differ as well. Knowing which format you are most comfortable with makes it easier to choose the right market.
T20
In a 20-over match, every ball matters. BPL and IPL follow this format. Scores change rapidly, so live odds shift from moment to moment — making T20 betting the most fast-moving.
BPL • IPL • T20 WCODI
In a 50-over match there is more room to analyse each team's powerplay tactics and mid-over bowling plans. Major tournaments including the ICC Cricket World Cup and Asia Cup are played in the ODI format.
ICC WC • Asia CupTest
In a five-day match, pitch behaviour, weather and batters' form all combine to create a completely different betting environment. This format offers the most opportunities for long-term markets and session-based betting.
Test series • BilateralTournaments that Bangladeshi cricket fans follow most
For Bangladeshi cricket fans, BPL is the most anticipated domestic tournament. Each season, the battle between franchise sides captivates the entire country. IPL is also hugely popular among Bangladeshi viewers — the standard of cricket played by Indian stars makes it easy to stay glued to.
For many fans, betting on baji 2 while watching Bangladesh Tigers in international action is a way to feel even more connected to the game. During the T20 World Cup or Asia Cup, baji 2's markets offer a wide variety of betting options for every match.
Alongside cricket, the betting platform also covers football, tennis and other sports — more on those in the section below. If you prefer casino games over betting, baji 2 Casino has a large collection of live table games and slots.
Beyond cricket — how betting on football and other sports is different
In cricket, a result is usually decided between two teams (no draw in limited-overs), so the market focuses on two outcomes. Football has three possible results — home win, draw, away win. This difference has a significant impact on how odds are calculated and on the range of markets available.
In football, goal line (over/under), Asian handicap and corner betting are popular. The cricket equivalents are run line, total runs and wicket-based markets. For tennis, badminton or kabaddi, each sport has its own format and rules, so betting markets are built accordingly. The key point is: bet on the sport you know well — treat it as a form of entertainment.
At baji 2's baji 2 Bet, markets for cricket, football and many other sports are available in one place. It is worth reading the terms and conditions to get a clear understanding of the betting rules.
Cricket vs Football — key differences
- Cricket: usually 2 outcomes (in limited-overs)
- Football: always 3 outcomes (win, draw, loss)
- Cricket: over, wicket and run-based markets
- Football: goal, corner and Asian line markets
- Live in-play betting is available for both
5 popular cricket betting markets
Each market works differently. Below is a plain explanation of each one — once you understand them, choosing your preferred market becomes straightforward.
Match Winner
A bet on which of the two teams will win — a straightforward question. Example: Team A and Team B face each other in a T20. If you think Team B will win, place your bet on Team B. The bet is settled at the end of the match based on the result.
Toss Winner
A bet on which team will win the toss. In cricket the toss can be significant — depending on pitch conditions, the winning captain chooses to bat or field. This market is settled before the match begins.
Top Batsman
A bet on which batter will score the most runs in a team's innings. This bet is made by considering the recent form of the top batters in a team and the condition of the pitch.
Total Runs (Over/Under)
A bet on whether the total runs scored in an innings or the full match will be above or below a set number. Example: the run line is 160 — if you think the runs will exceed 160, select "Over".
Multi Bet
Placing several bets together on a single slip is called a multi bet. Example: selecting a team in 3 matches multiplies the odds of all three into a single combined odds figure. If all selections are correct the return is larger, but if one is wrong the entire bet is lost.
Powerplay Runs
A bet on the total runs scored during the powerplay overs in a T20 or ODI. Fielding restrictions during the powerplay generally produce more boundaries, so careful analysis of this market can improve your chances of a good result.
Decimal, Fractional and American — three odds formats
The same odds can be written in three formats. The examples below make the differences clear.
Example 1 — the same odds in three formats
Team A's odds to win: Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. On a ৳1,000 bet, if Team A wins the return is ৳3,000 (৳2,000 profit plus your original ৳1,000 stake). If Team A loses, the full ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 — odds for the favourite
Team B's odds to win: Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400. American minus odds indicate how much you need to stake to make 100 in profit. On a ৳1,000 bet, if Team B wins the return is ৳1,250 (৳250 profit).
The decimal format is the simplest — just multiply the odds by your stake to get the total return. On baji 2 you can choose whichever format you prefer.
Odds shift with every wicket — how live betting works
With in-play or live betting, you can place bets after the match has started. Every wicket, every boundary and every completed over causes the odds to change in real time. As the match situation develops, betting opportunities change along with it.
Consider this example: in the first 6-over powerplay, Team A reach 55 runs having lost only 2 wickets. At that point, Team A's odds to win will shorten (meaning Team A becomes the favourite). Conversely, if Team B lose their first 3 wickets quickly, their odds will lengthen.
Live betting is most fast-paced in T20 because scores change so quickly. In ODI and Test cricket, odds move more gradually, giving you a little more time to analyse. For live in-play betting on baji 2's markets, using the baji 2 app gives you the fastest odds updates. Log in via the baji 2 App to access the live markets.
Before you start — a few practical tips
Learn one format well
Rather than jumping into T20, ODI and Test all at once, focus on one format first. Understanding the pitch type, recent team performance and how markets behave in that format will make betting more enjoyable.
Set a budget first
Betting is a form of entertainment — decide in advance how much you are willing to spend and stick to that limit. For more on responsible betting, visit the Responsible Gaming page.
Build skill in one market
Instead of betting across many markets at the same time, focus on the one you understand best. Start with Match Winner or Total Runs — whichever you feel most comfortable with.
No rushing in live betting
In-play odds change quickly. Rather than making fast decisions driven by emotion, take a moment to assess the situation. In T20 especially, a single over can change the entire picture.
Keep selections low in multi bets
More selections in a multi bet mean a higher potential return — but the probability of all of them being correct also drops. Starting with 2–3 selections in a multi bet is a sensible approach.
Betting is entertainment — not a source of income
Cricket betting is for enjoyment. There is no method that guarantees regular profit — results are always uncertain. Keeping this in mind will make the experience better.
