Cricket betting at xbajee — bet on the best markets from BPL to the T20 World Cup
Bet on the most popular sport in Bangladesh right here at xbajee. From match winner to live in-play — new opportunities every over.
Cricket Formats and Major Tournaments
T20
Just 20 overs per innings — every ball carries tension and odds shift fast. BPL and IPL are the biggest stages for this format. Bangladeshi fans follow BPL most closely.
ODI
A 50-over one-day match with two innings — powerplay, middle overs and death overs each call for a different approach. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in ODI format.
Test
In a five-day Test match, pitch conditions, weather and team ability shape the markets. Because a draw is possible, three-outcome markets are available here — beyond just a tie.
BPL, IPL and International Series
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is the biggest domestic cricket event in the country. Every season this tournament brings together local and overseas stars, and xbajee opens multiple markets for each match.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) is the most-watched T20 league in the world — countless Bangladeshi fans follow every match live. Big markets are also available for the T20 World Cup and other ICC events.
Alongside cricket, xbajee also offers football and other sports markets at xbajee Bet — these are covered below.
Differences in betting on Cricket, Football and Other Sports
A cricket match runs for several hours or several days — every over and every wicket affects the odds. That makes in-play betting especially relevant here. Tests have three possible outcomes including a draw, while T20 and ODI have only two.
A football match lasts just 90 minutes and goals are scarce, so results like 1-0 or 0-0 are common. Handicap and corner count markets are popular in football. In basketball or tennis, where points are plentiful, totals markets for runs or games work differently.
The key difference is match length and scoring patterns — in cricket, a big partnership or a run of wickets can shift the market very quickly, something you see less in football.
Popular Cricket Markets
A single cricket match at xbajee can have dozens of markets open at the same time. Here is a brief overview of the seven most familiar markets.
Match Winner
The simplest market — which team wins the match? In T20 or ODI there are two options. Example: a ৳500 bet on Team A returns a set amount at the given odds if Team A wins.
Toss Winner
Bet on which team wins the toss before the match starts. The outcome is completely independent — it has no relation to pitch conditions or team strength.
Top Batsman
Which batter will score the most runs in the match? This market is usually opened separately for each team — giving you the option to back an opener or a middle-order player.
Total Runs Over/Under
Will the total runs in the match go above (over) or stay below (under) a set number? Pitch type and weather play a big role in this market.
Multi Bet
Combine the outcomes of multiple matches in a single bet — if all selections are correct, the odds multiply; if one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. Example: three selections at 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.80 = approximately 4.03 times.
First Wicket Partnership
Will the opening partnership's total runs exceed a set number — if no wicket falls the odds drop quickly, and once the wicket falls the bet is settled.
Series Winner
Which team will win more matches in a three- or five-match series? Odds on this market shift as the series progresses — you can bet both before the first match and during the series. For detailed rules and conditions, see the Terms and Conditions page.
How to Read Odds — Three Formats
Odds are written in three different ways: decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability — only the notation differs.
| Format | Team A win odds | Team B win odds |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 1/4 |
| American | +125 | -400 |
Example 1 — Betting on Team A to win
Say Team A's win odds are 2.25 decimal, 5/4 fractional, +125 American. A ৳500 bet returns ৳1,125 if Team A wins (৳625 profit + ৳500 stake); if Team A loses you lose ৳500.
Example 2 — Favourite Team B
Team B's win odds are 1.25 decimal, 1/4 fractional, -400 American (American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit). A ৳500 bet returns ৳625 if Team B wins (৳125 profit).
Live In-Play — New Odds with Every Wicket
Betting while the match is in progress
Live betting means you can place a bet even after the match has started — odds refresh automatically at the end of every over and after every wicket falls. If a team loses four or five wickets in a row, their win odds lengthen because their chances have fallen.
Conversely, if a team scores well in the powerplay, their win odds shorten — meaning the expected return on that outcome also drops. Watching how the match develops and timing your bet well is therefore important.
Over-by-over markets
In-play markets include options such as how many runs will be scored in an over, whether a wicket will fall off the next ball, or how many runs in the next five overs. In T20, a batting team's explosive performance in the final few overs can shift odds in an instant.

Some Practical Tips Before You Start Betting
Start with one market. If you are new, it is better to get comfortable with simple markets like match winner or toss first. Placing bets on many markets at once makes things complicated.
Keep a separate budget. Only set aside what you can afford to lose for entertainment. If you lose one match, do not try to recover that loss on the next.
Choose markets that suit the format. Total runs markets are active in T20, while Tests have special markets for the final session of the day — understand the character of each format.
Watch the live match while you bet. Following the match as it happens makes it easier to decide at the right moment in in-play markets.
Be careful with multi bets. Adding more selections increases the potential return, but one wrong pick loses the whole bet. Think carefully before adding more than three selections.
Betting is entertainment, not a job. Cricket betting is a way to enjoy the game more — it is not a reliable source of income. Losses on individual matches are a normal part of it.
