133bet Cricket Betting — Place Bets on BPL, IPL and T20 Matches
133bet brings a wide range of cricket betting markets for cricket fans in Bangladesh. You can bet on your favourite team across all three formats — T20, ODI and Test. From live in-play to the toss — all markets in one place.
The three formats of cricket and favourite tournaments
To understand cricket betting, it helps to know the difference between formats first. T20 is the fastest — matches end in 20 overs, results come quickly, and odds shift with every ball. In Bangladesh, BPL is the biggest T20 competition, while globally it is the T20 World Cup. In-play markets for BPL matches on 133bet are especially popular.
ODI, or one-day cricket, is a 50-over game that takes a bit longer, but also offers more room for strategic betting. The ICC World Cup, bilateral series and Champions Trophy are the main stages for ODI betting.
Test cricket is a five-day contest — beyond the match winner, there are various innings-based markets to bet on. Among the biggest Test tournaments, the Ashes and the ICC World Test Championship stand out.
IPL is India's domestic T20 league on the international stage, yet it has a huge following of viewers and bettors in Bangladesh. Multiple markets are available on 133bet for every IPL match.
Popular betting markets — how each one works
In a cricket match you can bet on much more than just the match winner. Below is a brief introduction to 7 popular markets.
Match Winner
Which team will win the match — a straightforward bet on that single question. In T20 there is no draw, so there are only two options. Example: Team A or Team B — bet on whichever you think will win and collect if you are right.
Toss Betting
Which team will win the toss before the match starts — this market is short-lived and does not depend on anything else that happens in the match. Odds are usually close to even.
Top Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs for their team — decisions in this market require considering the team's batting line-up. Separate markets are available for both Team A and Team B.
Total Runs Over/Under
Whether the total runs in the match will be above (over) or below (under) a set number — this type of bet focuses more on the nature of the scoring than on which team wins. Pitch conditions and weather are relevant factors.
Runs in the First Over
How many runs will be scored in the first over — this market is available before in-play begins. The pace bowler's approach and the batsman's tendency influence the outcome.
Multi Bet (Multiple Selections)
Combining the results of several matches into a single bet is a multi bet. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply to give a much larger return — but if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Man of the Match
Which player will deliver the best performance — this market is available for specific matches. Since an all-rounder has more ways to influence the game, odds vary across players in different roles.
How to read odds — three formats
Odds on a betting platform are shown in three different formats. All three express the same probability — only the way they are written differs.
| Format | Example: Team A wins | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | Total return on a ৳500 bet: ৳1,250 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet |
Example 1 — evenly matched teams:
Odds for Team A to win — Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150. If you place a ৳500 bet and Team A wins, your total return is ৳1,250 (৳750 profit + ৳500 original stake). If Team A loses, the full ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — odds for the favourite:
If Team B is the favourite, odds might be — Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400. A negative American odds figure shows how much you need to stake to win ৳100 in profit. On a ৳500 bet, total return is ৳625 (৳125 profit).
At 133bet you can choose between decimal, fractional and American odds formats. Before you start betting, read the responsible gaming guidelines.
Live in-play betting — odds shift the moment a wicket falls
In-play betting means placing bets while the match is in progress. In cricket, odds are recalculated after every ball, every over and every wicket — giving you the chance to bet at the right moment based on how the game is unfolding.
For example: if 3 wickets fall in 15 overs, odds on the batting team lengthen because a side under pressure may struggle to build a total. On the other hand, when a big hitter comes in during the final overs, the bowling side's advantage narrows.
Real-time odds for BPL and IPL matches update continuously in 133bet's in-play section. Following every moment of the game from your mobile and adjusting your bets accordingly is a completely different experience from standard pre-match betting.
Beyond in-play, 133bet also offers betting markets on football, tennis and other sports — though the detailed over-by-over markets found in cricket are generally not available for other sports. If you enjoy casino games, there is also the option to play live baccarat and roulette at 133bet Casino.
Betting on football and other sports
Alongside cricket, 133bet also offers football betting. However, cricket and football betting work quite differently. In cricket, the over-by-over structure — overs, wickets, powerplays — generates far more in-play markets. In football, match winner, number of goals and half-time result are popular, but the variety of markets is not as deep as in cricket.
Betting markets are also available for tennis, badminton and other international sports. Each sport has its own pace and strategy, so the betting experience differs accordingly.

Cricket vs Football Betting
- Over-by-over markets in cricket
- Half-time and number of goals markets in football
- Multi bets possible in both
- Odds change more frequently in in-play cricket
Practical betting tips — for beginners
- 01 Before placing a bet, understand the format involved. T20 and Test cricket move at completely different paces — the same approach does not work for both.
- 02 Multi bets offer higher returns but also carry higher risk. If three selections have decimal odds of 1.50, 1.60 and 1.70, the combined odds are roughly 4.08 — a ৳100 bet returns ৳408, but one wrong selection and you lose the whole amount.
- 03 Set a budget in advance — decide how much in total you are willing to spend and stick to it. Betting is a form of entertainment, not a source of income.
- 04 Do not rush in in-play betting. After a wicket falls, take time to assess the situation before making a decision.
- 05 Rather than sticking to one market, try out different ones. Toss, top batsman or runs in the first over — smaller markets are easier to follow closely.
