Cricket Formats and Competitions
T20, ODI and Test — each format has a different style of betting
Cricket has three main formats and the betting experience is quite different in each. T20 is the shortest — in a 20-over game results can turn around quickly, so odds move up and down fast. Tournaments like BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are the most popular among Bangladeshi fans — ck888 offers a range of markets on these matches.
ODI (One Day International) cricket is played over 50 overs per side, making tactics more important. The ICC World Cup, T20 World Cup, and bilateral series are the main areas for ODI betting. Test cricket is a five-day game — a draw is a valid result here, so the match winner market has three options and odds work differently.
Whether it is a Bangladesh Tigers match, a BPL franchise clash, or the T20 World Cup — you can join your preferred market for every event at ck888.

Football and Other Sports — How They Differ from Cricket
More than just cricket — a bigger sportsbook
At ck888, you can bet on football alongside cricket. Football betting works a little differently — in most matches a draw is a normal result, so the match winner market has three options (home win, draw, away win). In T20 cricket there are no draws, which makes the odds structure simpler.
In football, goals-based markets are common, such as total goals under or over. The cricket equivalent is total runs or runs-per-over markets. Events are also available for other sports like basketball, tennis, and kabaddi — each with its own market structure.
In addition, ck888's cricket and sports betting platform covers football league events from various countries, all accessible from the same account.
Popular Cricket Markets
5 markets to help you get started with betting
Match Winner
The simplest market — which team will win the match? In T20 or ODI there are two options (Team A or Team B); in Test there are three (Team A, Team B, or draw). For example: Team A odds 1.45, Team B odds 2.75 — a ৳1,000 bet on Team B returns ৳2,750 if Team B wins.
Toss Winner
Which team will win the toss — this market is settled before the match begins. The toss matters in cricket because teams choose to bat or field based on pitch conditions. There are usually two options — since the chances are roughly equal, odds are close to even.
Top Batsman
Who will score the most runs in a specific innings? This market lists several players and you pick the best performer. The player with the higher chance of topping the scores has lower odds; the riskier pick has higher odds.
Total Runs (Over/Under)
You choose whether the combined runs of both teams will be more than the set number (over) or fewer (under). For example: if the total runs line is set at 310, choose 'over' if you think runs will exceed 310, or 'under' if you think they will fall short.
Multi Bet
Placing multiple selections together makes a multi bet. Example: three selections with odds of 1.40, 1.60, and 1.90 — combined odds are 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.90 = 4.26. A ৳100 bet returns ৳426 if all selections are correct. However, if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
First Wicket to Fall
At what score will the first wicket fall, or which batsman will be dismissed first — this in-innings market is settled quickly. It is especially popular in T20 because the result is known early in the match.
Reading Odds — Three Formats
Decimal, fractional and American odds all carry the same meaning
Odds on different betting platforms may be displayed in three formats — decimal, fractional, and American. All three express the same information in different ways.
| Odds Format | Team A (Underdog) | Team B (Favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 4/5 |
| American | +150 | −125 |
On a ৳200 bet, if Team A wins you get back ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 stake). If Team A loses, you lose ৳200.
On a ৳200 bet, if Team B wins you get back ৳360 (৳160 profit + ৳200 stake). In American odds, −125 means you must stake ৳125 to make a ৳100 profit.
A simple guide to reading odds
- Decimal odds: stake × odds = total return. Subtract 1.0 to get the profit.
- Fractional odds: 3/2 means ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked.
- American + odds: profit on a ৳100 stake — for example, +150 means ৳150 profit.
- American − odds: how much you need to stake to make a ৳100 profit.
- The lower the odds, the bigger the favourite — and the lower the return.
Live Betting — How Odds Shift with Wickets and Overs
Bet while the match is in progress and make decisions based on what is happening on the field
Live or in-play betting means you can place bets after the match has started. In cricket this is especially engaging because the situation changes quickly with every over and every wicket.
Say Team A is batting well in the first innings — their odds of winning will shorten. But if two wickets fall in quick succession, the odds will lengthen again. This constant movement is what sets live betting apart.
In T20, odds shift fastest during the death overs (the final 5 overs) — because batsmen take more risks at that stage. At ck888, you can easily pick your preferred market for live betting.
A Few Things to Know Before You Bet
Cricket betting is for entertainment — play with a plan
- Set a budget first: Decide how much you will spend per session before you start. Betting is a form of entertainment — it is not a way to earn income.
- Start with one format: Begin with simple markets in T20 or ODI (such as match winner or toss), then gradually learn other markets.
- Be careful with multi bets: Combined odds may look large, but one wrong selection means the entire bet is lost. It is better not to add too many selections at once.
- Do not chase losses: If you lose several bets in a row, placing a larger bet out of frustration or anger is not wise. Take a break.
- Play responsibly: Stay in control. Detailed guidance is available on ck888's Responsible Gaming page.
- Know the rules: Before betting, read the platform's terms and conditions — especially regarding bonus wagering.
