Cricket Betting at 355bet — Best Odds on BPL, IPL and T20 Matches
Cricket is more than a sport in Bangladesh — it is a passion. Bet on T20, ODI and Test cricket at 355bet and follow every moment of the match more closely. 355bet is ready with live odds, multiple markets and simple payment options.
The Three Cricket Formats and Tournaments You Can Bet On
The three main cricket formats — T20, ODI and Test — each offer a different betting experience. T20 is the fastest; the situation can change with every ball, so odds shift from moment to moment. In ODIs, the 50-over game means team strategy and middle-over strength have more influence on betting. Test matches run over five days, where pitch conditions and weather play an important role.
The most popular competition among Bangladeshi fans is the BPL (Bangladesh Premier League). Betting markets are especially active during this T20 league, which features competitive matches between local franchises. India's IPL is also hugely popular in Bangladesh, and you can bet on those matches at 355bet too. The T20 World Cup and other ICC international tournaments create the biggest betting season of the year.
Bangladesh Tigers matches naturally attract the most attention. Before placing a bet, analyse the team's batting lineup, the pitch type and the opponent's recent form yourself.
Football and Other Sports — How They Differ from Cricket
You can bet on football as well as cricket at 355bet. There are some fundamental differences in the betting structure between the two sports. In cricket, every ball is an event — a six, a wicket, a wide — so in-play odds are far more dynamic. In football, goals are less frequent, but events like penalties or red cards can suddenly change the picture.
In limited-overs cricket there is no draw, so the match winner market has only two outcomes, which makes odds straightforward to calculate. In ODIs and Test matches a draw or tie is possible, making it three outcomes to consider — much like football. You can also bet on hockey, tennis and badminton, but cricket remains the first choice for Bangladeshi bettors.
Betting is not limited to cricket or football. At 355bet you can also enjoy the Aviator game — a completely different experience from sports betting, where you decide when to cash out yourself.
Cricket vs Football — Market Differences
- T20/ODI — only 2 outcomes (no draw)
- Test and Football — 3 outcomes (win/draw/loss)
- Cricket in-play odds change with every ball
- Football sees large odds shifts when a goal is scored
- Cricket has unique top batsman/bowler markets
Popular Betting Markets — 7 Picks
In cricket betting, who will win is not the only option. The following seven markets are especially popular on 355bet.
Match Winner
The simplest market — just pick which of the two teams will win. With only two outcomes in T20 and ODI, it is a good starting point for new bettors.
Simple MarketToss Betting
Bet on the toss result before the match starts. Since each team has an equal chance of winning the toss, odds are generally close for both sides — for example, Team A and Team B.
Pre-MatchTop Batsman
Bet on which player will score the most runs for a team. Batting order and pitch type play an important role here.
Player MarketTotal Runs Over / Under
Pick whether the total runs will go over or under a set line. Example: will the total runs in the match exceed 310? Analyse the pitch and team composition before deciding.
Line MarketMethod of First Wicket
Bet on how the first wicket will fall — caught out, bowled, LBW. Also available in in-play markets, with odds changing each over.
In-PlayTop Bowler
Bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. Whether pace bowlers or spinners are more effective depends on how dry or damp the pitch is.
Bowling MarketMulti Bet (Multiple Selections)
Combine multiple matches or markets into a single bet. If all selections are correct the return is much higher, but if even one is wrong you lose the entire bet. See details below.
Multiple EventsHow to Read Odds — Three Formats Explained
Odds on 355bet are usually shown in decimal format, but fractional and American formats are also available. All three convey the same information — they just display it differently.
Example 1 — Team A to Win (Stake ৳500)
The same odds in three formats:
If you stake ৳500 and Team A wins, you get back ৳1,250 (৳750 profit + your original ৳500 returned). If Team A loses, the full ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B the Favourite (Stake ৳500)
Because Team B is the favourite, the odds are lower. A ৳500 stake returns ৳750 (৳250 profit). American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100 — here, ৳200.
In a multi bet, each set of odds is multiplied together. Say you have three selections: decimal 1.40, 1.50 and 1.90. The combined odds are 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.90 = 3.99 (approximately). So a ৳100 stake returns ৳399 if all win — but if any one loses, the full ৳100 is gone.
Decimal odds are the easiest: multiply the number by your stake to get the total return. In fractional odds, the numerator is the profit and the denominator is the stake. In American format, a plus (+) shows profit on a ৳100 bet; a minus (−) shows how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit.
Keep in Mind
- Higher odds mean higher risk and a higher potential return
- A multi bet can deliver a high return but every selection must be correct
- Favourite teams have lower odds — lower return but a better chance of winning
- Betting is for entertainment — no outcome is guaranteed
Live Betting — Odds Change Every Over
Betting during a match — in-play betting — adds a whole new dimension to cricket. Odds update instantly every time a wicket falls, an over is completed or a big six is hit in the powerplay. For example, if Team A reaches 80 runs in the first 10 overs without losing a wicket, their odds of winning will drop noticeably because the balance of the match has shifted.
You need to make quick decisions in this fast-moving environment. The 355bet mobile platform lets you check live odds and place bets from anywhere. The app is available on both Android and iOS and can be downloaded through official channels.
The most popular in-play markets are: which over the next wicket will fall in, the total runs in the next 5 overs (over/under), and whether the current batsman will hit a six off the next ball. These markets open and close quickly, so follow the odds closely.
Some Tips That Help with Betting
Set a fixed budget
Decide on a budget before each betting session and stick to it. Betting is a form of entertainment — it should not be treated as a source of income. Read the responsible gaming guide to learn more.
Focus on one market
Spreading your attention across too many markets at once can work against you. It is better to start by focusing on the match winner or total runs market, as these are easier to analyse.
Learn about the pitch and weather
Spinners tend to benefit from rain or a damp pitch, while pace bowlers are more dominant on dry pitches. This information is useful across various betting markets.
Keep multi bets manageable
More selections in a multi bet means more risk. Adding more than 3 selections can be difficult for new bettors — practise with 2–3 selections first.
Avoid rushing in live betting
Odds move fast in in-play betting, so waiting is sometimes the smarter move. Watching one ball or one over play out can give you a clearer picture of the situation.
