Cricket Betting at 33bd: Top Markets for BPL, IPL and International Matches
From T20 to Test — place bets on every format, follow live odds, and deposit using the most familiar payment methods in Bangladesh.
The Three Formats of Cricket and Favourite Tournaments
The first thing to understand about cricket betting is which format you are betting on. A T20 match finishes in a few hours, so its markets move fast. In ODI, teams play different strategies across 100 overs, and in a five-day Test match, statistics and pitch conditions carry much more weight.
The most popular competitions among Bangladeshi fans are BPL, IPL and the ICC T20 World Cup. Because BPL is held on home soil, every match draws a special level of interest. The IPL brings together world-class players, and every innings Bangladesh Tigers play in the T20 World Cup raises supporters' heartbeats.
At 33bd, betting markets are available for matches across all three formats. Place a bet before a match starts, or watch the live market shift with every ball while the game is in progress and make your decision then.
Betting on Football and Other Sports
Alongside cricket, 33bd also offers betting on football and a few other sports. There are several differences between cricket and football betting. Cricket has far more specialised markets based on wickets, runs and overs — such as top batsman, highest run scorer, or who will take the first wicket. Football markets are generally focused on match result (1x2), total goals, or both teams scoring.
Another feature unique to cricket is the draw — in Test matches three results are possible (team A wins, team B wins, or a draw), whereas T20 and ODI normally have only two outcomes, which means the odds structure is different. Understanding these differences makes it clear which markets to pick in each sport.

7 Popular Betting Markets
You can bet on several types of markets in a cricket match. Here is a quick look at how each market works.
Match Winner
A bet on which team will win the match. Example: if team A wins, your bet is successful; if team B wins, it is not.
SimplestToss Bet
A bet on who will win the toss before the match starts — team A or team B. The outcome depends entirely on chance.
Pre-MatchTop Batsman
A bet on who will score the most runs in the team. Example: who will be the highest run scorer for team A.
Player MarketTotal Runs Over / Under
A bet on whether the total runs in a match (or an innings) will be above or below a set number. Example: if total runs exceed 160, "over" wins.
Total MarketMulti Bet
Multiple selections combined into one bet. If all selections are correct the return increases; if any one is wrong the entire bet is lost.
Multiple MatchesFirst Wicket to Fall
A bet on which over or at what score the first wicket will fall — this market is particularly popular in T20.
Cricket SpecialAn Example of a Multi Bet
Say you place bets on the winners of three separate matches. The decimal odds for the three selections are 1.40, 1.80 and 1.90. Multiplied together, the combined odds come to 1.40 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 4.79 (approximately). So a ৳100 bet returns ৳479 if all three selections are correct. If even one selection is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost. A multi bet offers a higher return but also carries higher risk.
The teams are fictional examples — not live odds or a guarantee of winnings.
How to Read Odds
The same odds can be written in three different ways — decimal, fractional and American. 33bd generally displays decimal format, but knowing the others helps you feel comfortable on any platform.
Example 1 — Team A to win, bet ৳1,000
If the ৳1,000 bet wins, total return is ৳2,250 (৳1,250 profit + original ৳1,000 stake). If it loses, ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 — Favourite team B to win, bet ৳1,000
If team B wins, a ৳1,000 bet returns ৳1,800 in total (৳800 profit). American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100 profit.
The figures are fictional examples — not live odds.
Decimal odds are the easiest to work with: simply multiply the odds figure by your stake to get the total return. Fractional and American are just different presentations — the value is the same.

Live Betting: Odds Shift When Wickets Fall
Live or in-play betting is the ability to place bets while a match is in progress. In cricket, every ball, every wicket and every over reshapes the odds.
Say team A is batting and they were going well through the first 10 overs — team A's odds to win will be lower at that point, meaning they are the favourite. If three wickets suddenly fall, their odds will lengthen, because the result is no longer certain. Likewise, when team B comes in to bat, if runs start piling up quickly from the start, their odds to win begin to shorten.
In T20, the required run rate in the last 5 overs can shift dramatically, causing rapid changes in the live market from moment to moment. In ODI these changes are relatively slower, but a drinks break or a wicket in the middle overs can turn the odds around.
Live betting calls for quick decisions. Before placing a bet, be clear on what the market is asking and what your analysis tells you. Remember — betting is a form of entertainment, not a livelihood.

Practical Points Before You Start Betting
Cricket betting can be enjoyable, but a few simple habits help keep the experience positive.
Choose Markets Based on the Format
High-scoring markets are popular in T20 because runs come fast. In Test, it is better to factor in pitch conditions and weather before picking a market.
Set a Budget Beforehand
Set a limit for yourself before each match. Rather than chasing losses with bigger bets, taking a break is the wiser move.
Compare Odds
Odds can differ across markets in the same match. Decimal format makes comparison straightforward — a higher number means more risk and a higher potential return.
Be Careful with Multi Bets
The return on a multi bet can look attractive, but one wrong selection loses the whole bet. Until you have some experience, keep the number of selections low.
Betting is Entertainment, Not Income
Betting is a leisure activity. Never bet with borrowed money or money set aside for essential expenses. For ages 21+.
