crix Cricket Betting — Sports Betting in Bangladesh
From T20 to Test, BPL to T20 World Cup — bet on every format of cricket at crix. Match winner, top batsman, over/under and dozens of other markets, all in one place.
Cricket's three formats and how betting works in each
Cricket is the only sport in the world played simultaneously in three distinct formats — and the type of betting differs across each one. crix offers markets for all three formats.
T20 — The Fastest Format
In this 20-over format results can turn around quickly. BPL and IPL are both played in this format — T20 is the most familiar to fans in Bangladesh. The market shifts with every over and every wicket, which is why this format sees the most live betting.
ODI — A Balanced Contest
In a 50-over one-day match there is more opportunity to read the strategy inning by inning. For ICC tournaments and World Cup qualifiers, top batsman and total runs markets tend to be the most popular.
Test — A Test of Patience
In five-day Test cricket a draw is a possible result — so there are three markets: team A wins, team B wins, or draw. Pitch behaviour and bowling conditions play an important role in longer matches.
BPL, IPL and International Tournaments
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is the most closely followed tournament among fans in Bangladesh. When matches are played at home, supporter sentiment also influences betting markets. IPL takes place every year in April–May and, as a gathering of the world's best players, it is one of the most discussed tournaments on crix.
For every Bangladesh Tigers match in the T20 World Cup and other ICC tournaments, dedicated markets are available. Those who want to learn more about different aspects of sports betting can read about betting options at Kenio.
Football and other sports are also available for betting at crix. In football the 1-2-draw market is the primary one, but there are no wicket, over or partnership markets like in cricket — each sport has its own set of markets.
crix popular betting markets — how each one works
crix offers several betting markets for cricket. Below is a straightforward introduction to seven popular markets.
Match Winner
Bet on which team will win the match. Two options in T20 or ODI (team A or team B), three in Test (team A, team B or draw). A straightforward market — suitable for newcomers.
Toss Winner
This market is about which team wins the toss before the match begins. The result is decided in the very first minute of the match — making it one of the fastest markets. The probability for both teams is usually similar.
Top Batsman
Bet on which batsman will score the most runs in a specific innings. Pick the leading batsman from a team — considering the team's lineup and the nature of the pitch makes this market more interesting.
Total Runs Over/Under
crix sets a specific number — for example 320 runs. You bet on whether the total runs scored in the match will be above that number (over) or below it (under). Understanding scoring conditions helps with this market.
Multi Bet
Place a bet by combining multiple markets or matches on a single slip. If all selections are correct, the return multiplies significantly — but if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. An example of multi bet odds is given further below.
First Over Runs
Over or under on how many runs will be scored in the first over. This market is popular during powerplay overs in T20. The contest between the opening bowler and batsman is settled within minutes.
Specific Runs Market
Whether a specific batsman will score 50 or 100 runs — this handicap-style market is separate from the team's win or loss. A batsman's recent form is relevant here.
How to read odds — a simple explanation of three formats
Odds at crix may be displayed in three different formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three formats convey the same information; only the way they are written differs. Use the examples below to understand.
Example 1 — Team A to win, bet ৳1,000
| Format | Odds | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | Win: return ৳2,250 (profit ৳1,250 + stake ৳1,000); lose: ৳1,000 is gone |
| Fractional | 5/4 | Same bet, same return — only the way it is written differs |
| American | +125 | A plus sign means ৳125 profit on a ৳100 bet — scale the same ratio for larger bets |
Example 2 — Team B is favourite, bet ৳1,000
| Format | Odds | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.50 | Win: return ৳1,500 (profit ৳500 + stake ৳1,000) |
| Fractional | 1/2 | Same amount — lower profit because it is the favourite |
| American | -200 | A minus sign means you need to bet ৳200 to make ৳100 profit — a characteristic of favourites |
Key rule: the higher the decimal odds, the lower the chance of winning but the higher the profit. In American odds, a plus (+) means underdog and a minus (−) means favourite. Reading the responsible betting guidelines will give you a clear idea of how to set betting limits.
In-Play Betting — odds change while the match is on
In-play betting in cricket is different from any other sport, because every ball creates a new moment. When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds rise sharply; two sixes in a row and the situation changes in an instant.
In crix's live betting market you can find moment-by-moment markets such as over-by-over runs, whether a wicket will fall on the next ball, or total runs at the end of the powerplay.
In live betting you have to make decisions quickly, as odds update every few seconds. Viewing live markets and placing bets is easier through the crix app on Android or iOS — find out more about the crix app.
- 01 Browse the available markets before the match starts — it will be easier to compare once the match is live.
- 02 Odds move fast when a wicket falls — understand that moment before making your decision.
- 03 Market movements are highest during the powerplay and death overs.
A few things worth knowing before you start betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — it is not a reliable source of income. When playing at crix, set your budget in advance and stick to that limit.
- 01 Before a major tournament (such as BPL or T20 World Cup), familiarise yourself with which markets will be available.
- 02 Adding many selections to a multi bet increases the potential return, but if even one selection is wrong the entire bet is lost. Plan the number of selections carefully.
- 03 Odds change fast in live betting — confirm your bet only once you are sure, without rushing.
- 04 Decimal odds never go below 1.00. Odds below 1.50 mean a favourite bet — lower profit, but a higher chance of winning.
- 05 Know the rules before you play. Reading crix's terms and conditions will give you detailed information on betting rules.
