123bet Cricket Betting — Bet on Every Bangladesh Tigers Match
From T20 to Test, from BPL to international cricket — 123bet lets you bet on every match with odds that update ball by ball. This page explains everything in plain language, from match winner, toss and top batsman markets to live in-play betting.
Cricket Formats and Popular Tournaments
When betting on cricket, the first thing to understand is which format you are betting on. T20 matches are fast-paced — results come out within a few hours, so odds shift quickly with every over. ODI matches span 50 overs, giving you more opportunity to read how the game is developing. Test cricket runs over five days, and a draw is a valid result — so there are three possible outcomes to bet on: home win, away win or draw.
For Bangladeshi cricket fans, BPL is the most talked-about tournament of the year. Every match between domestic franchise teams carries its own excitement. IPL also draws strong interest from Bangladeshi viewers, as several Bangladesh Tigers players take part in that league. In the ICC T20 World Cup and ODI World Cup, every Bangladesh Tigers match captures attention across the country.
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football at 123bet. Match winner, total goals and handicap markets are available for the English Premier League, UEFA Champions League and Bangladesh Football League. Football betting differs from cricket because draws are more common and matches run for a fixed 90 minutes. Other sports include tennis and badminton, where you can place separate bets on the outcome of each set.
Popular Betting Markets with Simple Examples
Cricket offers far more than just a match winner — every match has dozens of markets. Below are the seven most common markets, each with a brief example.
Match Winner
A straight bet on which team wins. T20 and ODI have just two options. Example: in Team A vs Team B, if you back Team A and they win, you receive a return based on the stated odds.
T20 ODI TestToss Winner
Settled before the match begins. Pick one of the two teams — even though the result is close to 50/50, there can be slight differences in the odds. It has no relation to how the match plays out.
Easy BetTop Batsman
Who will score the most runs in the innings? You pick the highest run-scorer from a specific team's batsmen before the innings begins. Consider the batting order and current form when deciding.
High OddsTotal Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a runs line — for example, 160. You bet on whether the total runs scored will be over or under that number. Factoring in pitch conditions and weather makes this decision easier.
Popular in T20Multi Bet
A multi bet combines several selections into one bet. If all selections are correct, the return is much higher — but if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. A detailed example is in the odds section below.
Higher ReturnTop Bowler
Who will take the most wickets in the innings? Choose between a pacer or a spinner. Looking at the pitch type and the opposition's batting lineup helps you make the call.

How to Understand Odds — Three Formats
Odds are written in three formats: decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same information in different ways. Two practical examples are explained below.
Example 1 — The Same Price in Three Formats (Team A to Win)
Say you are backing Team A to win — the odds for that bet can be written three ways:
If you stake ৳200 and Team A wins, your total return is ৳600 — ৳400 in profit plus your ৳200 stake back. If Team A loses, you lose the full ৳200.
Decimal 3.00 means the total return is three times your stake. Fractional 2/1 means ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked. American +200 means ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake.
Example 2 — The Favourite's Price (Team B to Win)
When Team B is the favourite, the odds are lower:
If you stake ৳200 and Team B wins, your total return is ৳300 — ৳100 in profit plus your ৳200 stake back.
American minus odds (-200) mean you need to stake ৳200 to make ৳100 in profit. The stronger the favourite, the larger the minus number.
In-Play Betting — Bet While the Match Is On
Live betting lets you place bets after the match has started. Every time a wicket falls or a big over is completed, odds update instantly. For example — if Team A loses two wickets in the 15th over, their odds of winning will rise at that moment and Team B's odds will shorten.
Things to watch in in-play betting: how the run rate stands at the end of the powerplay, whether rain interruption is possible, and which bowlers are coming on in the final overs. These factors drive the movement in odds.
For quick in-play betting on mobile, the 123bet app lets you see the scorecard and odds on the same screen.
