Cricket Betting at 662bet — place bets on every format from BPL to T20 World Cup
Cricket is Bangladesh's most popular sport. At 662bet you get access to detailed markets for T20, ODI and Test matches — from before the first ball until the last.
Three Cricket Formats and Major Competitions
Bet types and strategies differ by format — understand them first, then place your bets
T20 — The Fast Format
Results change very quickly in this 20-over format. BPL, IPL and the ICC T20 World Cup are the three competitions that attract the most interest from Bangladeshi fans. Every over can bring a shift, which is why live betting is particularly popular here. It is worth checking the recent form of teams before placing a bet.
ODI — A Balanced Contest
This 50-over format gives batting and bowling an equal chance. ODI matches are played at the ICC Cricket World Cup and in bilateral series. Toss, pitch type and powerplay performance are three factors that carry significant weight in ODI betting. Over/under markets based on run totals are more common here.
Test — A Test of Patience
This five-day format is complex in many ways. Weather, pitch conditions and team composition are all things to keep in mind for Test betting. Because a draw is always possible, the markets are different too. Innings-based and session-based markets are also available for Test matches at 662bet.
BPL, IPL and International Cricket — What to Follow
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is the competition closest to local fans. The presence of top local players alongside foreign stars makes the league special. The IPL is held every April-May and draws a huge audience in Bangladesh.
In addition, ICC T20 World Cup and Asia Cup matches on 662bet hold special interest for Bangladesh Tigers fans. Markets are wider for international matches — a single match can have dozens of different markets.
Interest in football is also growing in Bangladesh. Fans get caught up in the FIFA World Cup and European leagues. However, the innings-based or session-based markets available in cricket are not found in football — there, markets like number of goals, corner kicks and first goalscorer are more common.
Popular Cricket Markets — How to Bet on Each
Seven markets available at 662bet explained in simple terms
Match Winner
The simplest market — choose which of the two teams will win. Example: in Team A vs Team B, you pick Team A. If Team A wins your bet is successful; if not, the stake is lost.
Toss Winner
This market closes before the match begins. Bet on which team will win the toss. The toss matters in cricket because it creates the opportunity to take advantage of pitch and weather conditions.
Top Run Scorer
Which player will score the most runs in an innings or across the full match — this market requires choosing one name from several options. In T20 this market is highly competitive.
Total Runs — Over/Under
Choose whether the total runs in the match will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. Example: whether total runs will exceed 160. Pitch and weather have a big influence on this market.
Multi Bet (Combined Bets)
Combine multiple matches or markets into a single bet. If all selections are correct the return is much higher, but if even one is wrong the entire bet is lost. You can find full multi bet rules at 662bet.
Top Wicket-Taker
Who will take the most wickets in the match — this is also a popular market. On bowling-friendly or bouncy pitches, fast bowlers tend to dominate. It helps to understand the team's bowling lineup first.
First Over Score
Whether the runs scored in the first over will be above or below a set figure. The aggressive approach of opening batters in T20 matches makes this market lively. Read the FAQ to learn about more betting options.
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds — A Simple Explanation
There are three ways to express odds in betting. They all convey the same information in three different ways — none is bigger or smaller than the others, they are just written differently.
Example 1 — Three forms of the same price
Team A to win, bet ৳1,000:
If you win you get back ৳2,250 (৳1,250 profit + original ৳1,000 stake). If you lose, ৳1,000 is gone. Decimal is the simplest — multiply the stake by the odds to get the total return.
Example 2 — Odds for the favourite
Team B is expected to win:
In American odds, the minus (-) sign shows how much you need to stake to win ৳100. On a ৳1,000 bet the return is ৳1,500 (৳500 profit). The favourite pays less, but is considered more likely to win.
Odds shift when a wicket falls — Live In-Play Betting
Bet while the match is in progress — new calculations with every ball
What happens when a wicket falls
When a team's key batter is dismissed, that team's odds rise immediately — meaning the platform considers their chance of winning to have dropped. This creates an opportunity to place a new bet at that moment.
Markets after the powerplay
In T20, after the first 6 overs the score gives a sense of where a team might end up. During this period the over/under market odds update continuously and new markets may open.
Duckworth-Lewis situations
If overs are reduced due to rain or other reasons, live markets may temporarily suspend. Once the situation is clear, markets reopen with new odds. This is particularly relevant in ODI and T20 matches.
The final-over tension
If the match is close in the last 5 overs, odds can change with every ball. Live betting is most active during this phase of the match. Quick decisions are needed, though.
Live betting markets change quickly. Keeping the ground conditions, pitch report and each team's recent performance in mind makes it easier to follow live markets. Live markets are also available for football betting, but there events like half-time or a penalty shootout have a bigger impact on odds.

Things to keep in mind for cricket betting
- Understand the format first: Aggressive batting matters most in T20, while mental strength and the ability to read the pitch count for more in Test. The same team can produce different results across formats.
- The pitch report matters: A dry, grassy or damp pitch affects batters and bowlers differently. This is why winning the toss is often decisive.
- Set a budget: Decide the maximum amount you will stake before each bet. Betting is for entertainment — not as a source of income.
- Check multiple markets: Rather than sticking only to match winner, look at top batter, over/under or toss markets too. Variety makes the experience more enjoyable.
- No rushing in live betting: Odds change fast in live markets. Make your decision after watching enough of the match — betting on impulse can lead to regret.
- Responsible betting: Know your limits and stick to them. For more details, read the responsible gaming guidelines. Betting is prohibited for those under 21.
Beyond cricket — Football and Other Sports
At 662bet there are opportunities to bet on many sports beyond cricket
Football Betting
The FIFA World Cup, UEFA Champions League and English Premier League attract huge interest in Bangladesh. In football, markets beyond match winner — such as total goals, both teams to score, handicap and half-time result — are the most popular. Unlike cricket, football does not have specific milestones like wickets or overs, so the markets work differently. During in-play betting, odds shift the most at the moment a goal is scored.
Other Sports
Betting is also available on Kabaddi, badminton and tennis. Each sport has its own type of markets. Tennis offers set-based markets, while badminton has game-score markets. Betting is also available on virtual sports and e-sports. See the terms and conditions for all market types and rules.
