33bmw Cricket Betting — Best Markets from BPL to T20 World Cup
Make every moment of Bangladesh's most popular sport more exciting with 33bmw's range of betting markets — from before the first ball to the final over.
Different cricket formats and major competitions
Betting markets available across all three formats — T20, ODI and Test
Cricket's three main formats — T20, One Day International (ODI) and Test — each have their own character, and the betting markets differ accordingly.
T20: The shortest format, with each team playing 20 overs. Matches finish quickly, making this the most active format for in-play betting. BPL, IPL and the ICC T20 World Cup are the most popular with Bangladeshi fans.
ODI: The fifty-over format, in which Bangladesh Tigers have recorded most of their memorable wins. Bilateral series and ICC World Cup matches offer a wide range of betting markets.
Test: The longest format, played over five days. A draw is a valid result here, so the betting options differ from T20 or ODI. Special markets are available for session runs, innings totals and end-of-day scores.
BPL is Bangladesh's domestic T20 league, followed by large numbers of people across the country as local franchise teams compete. IPL is India's top T20 league, featuring the best players in the world. Alongside international matches, betting markets for both tournaments are available at 33bmw.
Football and other sports betting
Alongside cricket, 33bmw also offers betting markets on football and other sports. In football — covering the Premier League, La Liga and international matches — there are three possible outcomes: Team A win, Team B win and draw. This is fundamentally different from T20 or ODI cricket, where a draw is not possible in limited-overs formats.
Handicap betting is common in football, where the weaker team is given a goal advantage. The cricket equivalent is run handicap — if a team receives a 10-run handicap, 10 runs are added to their final score for the purpose of settling the bet.
Sports like tennis, badminton and kabaddi have set-by-set markets that update live odds quickly, similar to over-by-over in-play betting in cricket.
Football vs Cricket Betting
Football has a draw option; T20 and ODI do not. Test cricket does allow draws. It is important to understand the distinct market setup for each format.
Popular 5 betting markets and how they work
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which team will win the match. Two options in T20 and ODI; three options including draw in Test.
Toss Winner
Which team will win the toss before the match starts — this is a completely separate market. The toss result is not directly linked to the match outcome.
Top Batsman
Bet on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match. Options vary by team.
Total Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a specific run line. You bet on whether the actual runs will be over or under that number. Example: if the line for a T20 innings is 165, you choose Over or Under.
Multi Bet
Combine selections from multiple matches into one bet. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply and the return increases significantly — but if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Top Bowler
Who will take the most wickets in a match or innings — this market appears more often in Test and ODI formats.
Decimal, Fractional and American — odds formats made simple
Odds are displayed in three different formats across platforms. All three convey the same information — only the way they are written differs. The examples below make this clear.
| Format | How it is written (Team A wins) | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | You get ৳3.00 back for every ৳1 staked (including stake) |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked |
| American | +200 | ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake |
Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. If you win, you get back ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake); if you lose, you lose ৳500.
Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400 (negative odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100). On a ৳500 stake you get back ৳625 (৳125 profit).
Before you start betting at 33bmw, read the Terms and Conditions once — the rules for each market are explained there in detail.
The same odds in three formats — decimal is the easiest to read
Multi Bet Example
3 betting selections: odds 1.40 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 4.79 (approx). Return on a ৳100 stake: ৳479 — but if any one selection loses, the full ৳100 is lost.
Live In-Play Betting — Odds Shift the Moment a Wicket Falls
Live betting means placing bets while the match is in progress. Unlike pre-match betting, odds are updated automatically after every over, every wicket and every boundary.
Say Team A loses 2 wickets in the first 5 overs of a T20 match. Their odds to win might have been 1.80 at the start; after those wickets fall, the odds could move to 2.40 or higher — because their chances of winning have dropped. If you back Team A at that moment, you are getting a higher price.
Similarly, if a team needs 50 runs off the last 5 overs with 8 wickets in hand, their odds will be quite low. But if 2 wickets fall in one over, the odds will shift quickly.
In-play markets can close fast — especially at key moments (just before or after a wicket falls). Stay focused when betting live.
Those who enjoy virtual games alongside cricket can visit the Virtual Casino, where real-time games with live dealers are available.

How to stay on track with cricket betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — it is not a substitute for regular income. Keeping a few basic guidelines in mind makes the betting experience more comfortable.
-
Set a fixed budget. Decide in advance how much you will spend on betting each week or month. Do not go beyond that limit.
-
Understand one market well. Start with Match Winner or Total Runs. Build a solid understanding of straightforward betting before moving to Multi Bets or more complex markets.
-
Know the match conditions. Keep a general idea of pitch type, weather and recent team form — these help you understand the markets better.
-
No rushing in live betting. Watching a match and placing bets at the same time leaves little room to assess the situation. Plan your decision-making approach in advance.
-
Follow responsible gaming practices. 33bmw's Responsible Gaming page has tools such as self-exclusion and deposit limits.
-
Treat it as entertainment. Betting can be an enjoyable activity — but keep each stake at an amount whose loss will not put pressure on your day-to-day life.
