Cricket Formats and Tournaments — How Does Betting Work in Each?

Cricket is played in three main formats — T20, ODI and Test. Each format has its own pace and character, so the betting markets differ too. BPL local franchise matches, the star-studded IPL, and Bangladesh Tigers' participation in the ICC T20 World Cup or ODI World Cup draw the most attention on betting platforms.

T20 Cricket

In this fast-paced format of just 20 overs, the situation can change at any moment. BPL, IPL and T20 World Cup are three popular T20 competitions. Odds shift every over, making T20 ideal for live betting.

BPL IPL T20 WC

ODI Cricket

In this 50-over format, the rhythm of the match builds gradually. Different strategies apply in the first and second innings. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in ODI format.

ODI WC Bilateral Series

Test Cricket

In this long five-day format, statistics and wicket counts go much deeper. While odds movements across the series are a little slower, a great deal can change over five days.

Football and Other Sports — Alongside Cricket

Alongside cricket, bajiok also offers football betting. In football, a draw is a possible result, so the market usually has three options — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw. This makes the football odds structure different from cricket.

In limited-overs cricket there is no draw, which keeps bet outcomes relatively straightforward — either Team A wins or Team B wins. In Test matches, however, a draw is possible. Football's handicap or Asian handicap markets are not common in cricket — cricket has a wider variety of run-based and wicket-based markets.

Before starting to bet, it is a good idea to read the specific rules for each sport carefully. Detailed guidelines are available on the responsible gaming page.

Popular Cricket Betting Markets

At bajiok you can bet on various cricket markets. Here is a brief overview of seven main markets.

Match Winner

A bet on which of two teams will win. In T20 and ODI, there are only two options — Team A or Team B. Simple structure, which makes it the most popular market for beginners.

Toss Winner

A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The result depends entirely on the toss — a team's form or strategy is not relevant here. However, knowing the pitch or weather conditions helps understand the importance of the toss winner.

Top Batsman

A bet on which batsman will score the most runs for a specific team. Knowing a team's batting lineup makes this market easier to understand.

Total Runs Over/Under

A bet on whether the total runs in a match or a specific innings will be more (over) or less (under) than a set number. Wickets, pitch and weather all affect this market.

Multi Bet

Multiple match results are combined into one bet. All selections must be correct to win. For example: three selections with decimal odds of 1.60 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.90 (approximately), so a ৳100 bet returns ৳490 if all are correct; if even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.

Top Wicket-Taker

A bet on which bowler will take the most wickets. The effectiveness of pace and spin varies with the pitch, which is important to consider.

Runs in the First Over

A bet on exactly how many runs will be scored in the first over of the match, or whether they will exceed a set limit. The pace bowler's form and the openers' approach are important factors here.

bajiok odds formats and betting calculation examples

Odds in Three Formats — Understand Them Easily

Betting platforms display odds in three ways: Decimal, Fractional and American. All three convey the same information, just presented differently.

Example 1 — Three Forms of the Same Price

Team A to win — stake ৳200. Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. If Team A wins, the return is ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 stake). If they lose, ৳200 is lost.

Example 2 — The Favourite's Price

Team B to win — Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400 (American minus odds means how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit). A ৳200 stake returns ৳250 (৳50 profit).

The decimal method is the easiest to calculate — stake × odds = total return. bajiok generally shows decimal format as the default.

Live Betting in Progress

Live Betting — Odds Change When Wickets Fall

Live or in-play betting means you can place bets even after the match has started. After every ball, every wicket and every big shot, odds update automatically. This makes live betting a completely different experience from regular pre-match betting.

Say Team A is batting and two wickets fall early. Team A's odds of winning will immediately lengthen and Team B's odds will shorten. Conversely, if Team A scores 60 runs in the first 5 overs, Team A's odds will shorten.

Since odds change quickly in live betting, there is less time to make decisions. Betting while watching the match live is therefore the most effective approach. Live cricket markets are available on bajiok's bajiok Bet platform.

  • Big odds shifts happen after the powerplay overs — watch for that period.
  • When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds temporarily lengthen — before the new batsman settles in.
  • Odds can shift sharply again in the death overs (17–20), especially in T20.

Key Features of Live Markets

  • Odds update in real time
  • New markets are added during the innings
  • Bet on runs or wickets in the next over
  • Markets may be suspended when the match situation changes
  • Place bets on mobile while watching the match live

Some Tips for Staying Aware When Betting

  • Set a fixed budget and play within that limit. Betting is a form of entertainment — not a source of income.
  • Instead of placing a large stake on one market, spread it across several smaller bets.
  • Avoid the tendency to place large bets to recover losses — this can increase losses further.
  • Live betting requires quick decisions — so be careful before placing large stakes.
  • Adding more selections to a multi bet increases the reward, but the risk increases equally.
  • To read the betting rules carefully, visit the terms and conditions page.

FAQ — Cricket Betting

BPL is Bangladesh's domestic T20 franchise league, while IPL is India's. The betting structure is similar, but the number of teams, matches and player quality differ. IPL naturally has greater odds variety and market depth due to higher international attention. Knowledge of local team form can be useful when betting on BPL.

Yes, there is a significant difference. In T20, markets change quickly and new betting opportunities arise every over. Test matches have more session-based markets — such as which session will see the most wickets, or what the score will be at the end of the day. In Tests, a draw is a valid result, so the match winner market has three options.

If a match is cancelled or abandoned due to rain or any other reason, bets are settled according to the platform's own rules. Generally, if a match is abandoned, bets are refunded, but if a result is declared via the Duckworth-Lewis method, that result counts. Details are available on the bajiok terms and conditions page.

In a multi bet, just one correct selection is not enough — all selections must be correct. So while the reward is higher, so is the risk. Placing a multi bet with a small stake keeps potential losses limited. Beginners are better off getting comfortable with single markets first.

In live betting, odds are updated in real time to reflect the match situation. A wicket falling, a big six, or a fielding error — each event changes both teams' chances of winning. The platform's automated system reflects these changes in the odds immediately.
