line Cricket Betting — Bet on all major matches from BPL to T20 World Cup
Bet on every format of cricket — Bangladesh's most popular sport — at line. Play across a wide range of options from match winner to over-by-over markets.
Three Cricket Formats and Major Tournaments
In cricket betting, three main formats each create their own betting opportunities. T20 is the fastest format — scores shift quickly in this twenty-over game, and live odds move with every ball. This makes T20 matches particularly well-suited for live betting.
ODI, or One Day International, is played over fifty overs. Performance-based markets like top batsman or top bowler are more popular here. In Test cricket, a draw is a valid result across the five-day match — alongside match winner, session-based betting options are also available.
Among tournaments, BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) is the closest to Bangladeshi fans. Beyond that, IPL and the T20 World Cup attract strong interest in the betting markets. line also offers broad betting coverage for major ICC tournaments.
Betting on Football and Other Sports
Alongside cricket, football betting also has a significant presence at line. Football has three possible outcomes — Team A wins, Team B wins, or a draw — so the odds are structured differently from cricket. T20 cricket generally has no draw outcome, making its markets a straightforward two-way choice — this is the key difference between cricket and football betting.
Football offers betting options like Asian Handicap, both teams to score, or first goalscorer — none of which exist in cricket. Conversely, cricket markets on wickets, run rate or partnerships are not available in football.

6 Popular Cricket Markets
Various markets are available for cricket betting at line. The most commonly used markets are explained below.
Match Winner
A straight bet on which of the two teams will win. In T20 and ODI there are two options — Team A or Team B. If the team you choose wins, you win the bet.
Toss Winner
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The result is entirely random and becomes clear at the very first moment of the match.
Top Batsman
A bet on who will score the most runs for a given team. If the player you pick scores more runs than anyone else in their team's innings, you win the bet.
Total Runs Over / Under
The bookmaker sets a runs line — for example, 160 runs. You bet on whether the team's total runs will be above that line (over) or below it (under).
Multi Bet
Combining selections from multiple matches or markets into one bet multiplies the odds. If all selections are correct you get a larger return — if any one loses, the entire bet is lost.
Over-by-Over Betting
Markets on how many runs will be scored in a specific over, or when the next wicket will fall — these are especially active during live play.
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds
Odds can be displayed in three different formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability in different ways. Use the example below to understand:
| Format | If Team A Wins (Example) | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Total return of ৳3 for every ৳1 staked |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 bet |
| American | +200 | ৳200 profit on a ৳100 bet |
Example 1 (Team A to win, stake ৳1,000): Decimal odds 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. If the bet wins, total return is ৳3,000 (৳2,000 profit + ৳1,000 original stake); if it loses, ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 (Favourite Team B to win): Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200 (negative American odds indicate how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit). A ৳1,000 bet returns ৳1,500 (৳500 profit).
Note that the odds and examples are for illustration only — they are not live odds for any specific match or a guarantee of winnings.
Multi Bet Example
Three selections — decimal odds 1.40, 1.60 and 1.80 — combined give: 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.80 = 4.03 (approximately). That means a ৳100 bet returns ৳403 if all three selections are correct.
But if any one selection is wrong, the entire ৳100 is lost. A multi bet offers higher returns but also higher risk.

Live In-Play — Odds Shift with Every Wicket
Live betting means placing bets while a match is in progress — odds change with every ball, every wicket and every six. In a cricket match, when wickets fall quickly, the batting team's chances of winning decrease and their odds lengthen. Conversely, a big over during the powerplay shifts the scorecard in the batting team's favour and shortens their odds.
Live betting is most dynamic in T20 matches because the short format means situations change rapidly. The market when 50 runs are needed off the last five overs is completely different from the market at the start of the game.
Some Useful Cricket Betting Tips
- 01 Before placing a bet, understand the format — T20, ODI and Test markets each work differently. The same market carries different weight across the three formats.
- 02 In a multi bet, odds multiply but so does the risk. It is better to get comfortable with single markets first.
- 03 In live betting, watch how the match is developing before making a decision rather than rushing. Keep your budget in mind as odds change.
- 04 Betting is for entertainment — chasing losses by increasing your stakes is not a good habit. Set your own limits.
- 05 Read line's terms and conditions — especially the rules on using bonuses. Visit the Terms and Conditions page for more details.
