Three formats of cricket and popular tournaments

T20

The fastest format

Each innings is just 20 overs, so the result can turn around at any moment. Tournaments like BPL and IPL are played in T20 format. With more action in less time, T20 betting is the most familiar format among Bangladeshi players.

ODI

The fifty-over contest

In a One Day International, both teams bat for 50 overs each. The ICC World Cup and tri-series are held in ODI format. The pace is a little slower than T20, but when momentum shifts mid-match, betting odds can change quickly too.

Test

Five-day cricket

Test cricket is the longest and most tactical format of the game. Pitch conditions, weather, and a batsman's patience all combine to make Test betting a different experience. Because a draw is possible, there are three potential betting outcomes.

BPL, IPL and international series

The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is the country's premier T20 event each year. Bangladesh's national team — widely known as the Tigers — attract huge interest beyond BPL, with fans also following IPL matches closely. The T20 World Cup and ICC Champions Trophy are the biggest attractions on the international calendar.

Betting on all these tournaments is available at mc mcw. Before you start, reading the responsible gaming guidelines once will help you enjoy the experience more.

Football and other sports betting

mc mcw football and multi-sports betting options

Alongside cricket, mc mcw also offers betting on popular football matches. Football typically has match winner, total goals and handicap markets. The difference from cricket is that cricket has cricket-specific markets like overs, wickets and run rate, which are not available in football.

In cricket, a T20 match wraps up in just 20 overs, so odds shift fast and betting decisions need to be made quickly. In football, substitutions and corner kicks influence odds over 90 minutes. In both sports, a multi bet lets you place several event selections on one ticket, but all selections must win.

At mc mcw, betting options are available on several sports beyond cricket and football. To learn about different markets and odds formats, visit the mc mcw Bet page — it has full details on sports betting.

Popular cricket betting markets

In a cricket match, you can bet on many markets beyond just win or lose. Below is an introduction to seven common markets.

Most popular

Match Winner

A bet on which team will win the match. Example: if you back Team B in a Team A vs Team B match, you get a return if Team B wins and lose your stake if they do not.

Toss market

Toss Winner

You can bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The result is decided within seconds, making this one of the fastest-settling markets.

Player market

Top Batsman

A bet on which batsman will score the most runs in the match. Example: which batsman will score the highest for Team A — predict correctly and you win at the set odds.

Over/Under

Total Runs Over/Under

A bet on whether the total runs in an innings or the whole match will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. For example, whether Team A will cross 165 runs.

Combo bet

Multi Bet

Multiple selections from different matches or markets are combined into one bet. If all selections are correct, you can get a large return at the combined odds — but if even one is wrong, the entire stake is lost.

Series market

Series Winner

A bet on which team will win more matches across the whole series. The odds differ somewhat from a single-match bet, and the result is not settled until the series ends.

How odds work

Cricket betting odds are written in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability in different ways.

Format Odds for Team A to win Result on a ৳200 bet
Decimal 3.00 If you win, total return is ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 stake); if you lose, ৳200 is gone.
Fractional 2/1 The same bet on the same match — just written differently.
American +200 A plus sign shows how much profit a ৳100 bet will make.

Understanding odds for the favourite

If Team B is the favourite, their odds might be 1.50 in decimal, 1/2 in fractional and -200 in American. The minus sign shows how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. A ৳200 bet returns a total of ৳300 (৳100 profit).

Cricket match winner example

In a limited-overs match (T20 or ODI — no draw) Team A's odds are 1.80 and Team B's are 2.00. Placing ৳500 on Team B: if Team B wins, total return is ৳1,000 (৳500 profit); if Team A wins, ৳500 is lost.

Live in-play betting — odds change with every ball

Live betting in progress

Live in-play betting means you can place bets while the match is ongoing. In cricket, odds shift instantly when a wicket falls or a big six is hit. If Team A makes a strong start past 10 overs, their odds to win will shorten — meaning they become the favourite.

Big hitting in the powerplay overs sets the pace of the match. In the middle overs, protecting wickets or scoring quickly are turning points where odds can shift significantly. In the death overs (last 5 overs), the odds against the team chasing the target tend to lengthen under pressure.

When doing in-play betting, it is important to watch the match situation carefully. Rather than placing large bets at once, it makes more sense to assess the situation before acting. You can do live betting from anywhere using the mc mcw app — visit the mc mcw App page for details.

Some practical tips for cricket betting

Betting is entertainment — it is not a way to earn income. The tips below help keep the experience enjoyable.

01

Set a budget in advance

Set aside a fixed amount for each session and try not to go beyond that limit. Placing larger bets to recover losses is risky.

02

Understand the format before choosing a market

T20 and ODI play differently. Low-scoring matches are less likely in T20, but a single over can turn the match around.

03

Be careful with multi bets

Combining 3 selections in a multi bet raises the combined odds, but if all selections are not correct you get nothing. At decimal odds of 1.50, 1.60 and 1.70, the combined odds are 4.08, so a ৳100 bet returns ৳408 if all three win.

04

Understand the effect of pitch and weather

On a spin-friendly pitch, a team with strong spinners has an advantage. If rain is forecast, the outcome of an ODI or Test match becomes uncertain — this affects betting decisions.

05

Choose your odds format

Decimal odds are the easiest to read — multiply the stake directly to get the total return. Getting comfortable with decimal first makes it easier to understand other formats later.

06

Take breaks and enjoy the entertainment

Rather than betting continuously for a long time, it is good to take breaks. If betting stops feeling enjoyable, stop — read the responsible gaming advice.

Common questions and answers

Yes, they are different. In T20, the total runs over/under market has a lower limit and matches finish quickly. In ODI, longer innings mean mid-innings markets are available. In Test matches, a draw is also a possible result, so the match winner market has three options — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw.

Decimal odds of 1.50 means if you place a ৳200 bet and win, your total return is ৳300 (৳100 profit). In fractional format this is 1/2 and in American format it is -200. In American format, a minus sign shows how much you need to bet to make ৳100 profit.

In-play odds reflect the current state of the match. If a team scores quickly during the powerplay, their chances of winning increase and their odds shorten. Conversely, if wickets fall, that team's odds may lengthen. Since the situation is assessed after every ball, odds keep changing rapidly.

A multi bet lets you combine selections from multiple matches, even from different tournaments. If three selections are placed at decimal odds of 1.50, 1.60 and 1.70, the combined odds are 4.08 (rounded); a ৳100 bet returns ৳408 if all three are correct, but if any one loses the entire ৳100 is gone.

If a match is stopped due to rain or any other reason, how the result is settled depends on the specific terms of the betting platform. Generally, if the match does not complete at least a certain number of overs, the bet may be voided. Full details can be found on the mc mcw terms and conditions page.
