Cricket Betting at bk33 — Place bets across all formats from T20 to Test
bk33 brings cricket fans in Bangladesh a range of markets covering T20, ODI, Test, and BPL as well as international cricket. From live betting during a match to multi bets — all betting options are available on one platform.
The three cricket formats and the difference in betting markets
Cricket's three formats — T20, ODI, and Test — each have a different style of betting. Understanding each format is important for bettors.
T20
In this format of only 20 overs, the match changes very quickly. T20 matches are seen in tournaments like BPL, IPL, and the T20 World Cup. Because the run rate is higher in this format, over/under markets are quite popular. Odds change quickly the moment a wicket falls.
One Day International
In this 50-over format there are more opportunities for the match to swing back and forth. ODIs are played at the ICC World Cup and bilateral series. Because of the longer match, markets like top batsman and highest winning margin are a better fit here.
Test Cricket
This five-day format is considered the highest level of cricket. In Bangladesh Tigers Test matches, bettors can bet on markets such as match winner, draw probability, and various innings-based markets. Odds here are comparatively stable.
Cricket betting compared to football and other sports
A football match is only 90 minutes, so odds settle quickly. In a single T20 cricket match, odds keep changing for over three hours. This makes cricket much more varied for live betting. In football, the main markets are match result (1X2), goalscorer, and total goals; cricket has those alongside special markets like toss, partnership runs, bowler wickets, and powerplay score.
Sports like Kabaddi and futsal can also be bet on at bk33, but the range of markets is smaller than in cricket. BPL and Bangladesh Tigers matches are the most familiar to cricket-loving Bangladeshi bettors, so this page focuses on cricket.
Popular betting markets in cricket with examples
Multiple markets are available for cricket betting at bk33. Below is a brief overview of seven popular markets.
Match Winner
A bet on which of the two teams will win. Example: Team A and Team B are playing — if you pick Team A and they win, your bet wins.
Simplest marketToss Winner
A bet on which team wins the toss before the match starts. This is unrelated to the match result, which makes it popular as a standalone market.
Standalone marketTop Batsman
A bet on who will score the most runs for a team. Example: a bet on a batter to be the top scorer for Team A — if that batter does score the most runs, you win.
Performance marketTotal Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs scored in a full innings or in a specific number of overs will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. Handicap or over/under example outcomes are explained in words only — no specific stake or return is provided.
Runs-based marketMulti Bet
A single bet combining multiple matches or markets. A payout is received only if all selections win. If any one loses, the entire bet is lost. Full details on multi bets are available at bk33 Bet.
High payout potentialHandicap Betting
A weaker team is given a virtual advantage or a stronger team is given a deficit to balance the bet. Outcomes are explained in words only — no specific stake or return example is given.
Balance-based marketTop Wicket Taker
A bet on who will take the most wickets for a team. This is a bowling performance market — the bowler's form and pitch conditions play an important role here.
Bowling marketOdds in three formats — Decimal, Fractional and American
On bk33 and most online betting platforms, odds are shown in three formats: decimal, fractional, and American. Bangladeshi bettors are most familiar with the decimal format because it is easier to calculate.
Below, two practical examples are used to explain the three formats. Note — these are hypothetical examples for illustration only, not the odds or result of any specific match.
| Format | Odds for Team A to win | Odds for Team B to win | Example explanation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.25 | ৳1,000 bet on Team A, total return if win: ৳2,500 (profit ৳1,500) |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 1/4 | ৳1,000 bet on Team B, total return if win: ৳1,250 (profit ৳250) |
| American | +150 | -400 | +150 means a ৳1,000 bet earns ৳1,500 profit; -400 means a ৳400 bet is needed to earn ৳100 profit |
Example 1 — An underdog bet
Team A's odds are 2.50 in decimal, 3/2 in fractional, and +150 in American. With a ৳1,000 bet, if Team A wins the total return is ৳2,500 — meaning a profit of ৳1,500 and the original ৳1,000 stake back. If Team A loses, the full ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 — A favourite bet
Team B is the strong favourite, so the odds are lower — 1.25 in decimal, 1/4 in fractional, and -400 in American. With a ৳1,000 bet, if Team B wins the total return is ৳1,250 — meaning only ৳250 profit. American minus odds (-400) means a ৳400 bet is needed to earn ৳100 profit.
Live betting — how odds change during a match
With the in-play or live betting feature on bk33, bets can be placed while a match is in progress. In cricket, odds change after every wicket, every boundary, and at the end of every over. For example: if Team A gets off to a good start in the powerplay, their odds of winning will shorten and Team B's odds will lengthen.
Similarly, if two key wickets fall for Team A, their odds may suddenly increase — meaning a bet on them at that moment would offer a higher potential payout. Live betting is possible on mobile from outside Dhaka as well.
In live betting, decisions need to be made quickly. Odds can change within a few seconds at the end of an over. So it is important to follow the flow of the match closely.

Keep these useful points in mind for cricket betting
- Bet according to the format: T20 and ODI play differently. T20 matches change fast, so live betting may be more effective.
- Be careful with multi bets: Adding more selections increases the payout, but if even one loses the whole bet is lost. Start with fewer selections.
- Set a budget: Before each betting session, decide how much you will spend and stick to that limit. Betting is for entertainment — not as a source of income.
- Compare odds: Check what the odds look like across different markets. Decimal odds are easiest to understand — 2.50 means a total return of ৳2.50 for every ৳1 bet.
- Play responsibly: It is better not to immediately place larger bets to try to recover losses. For more advice on betting, read the Responsible Gaming page.
- Know the rules before you play: Each market has its own rules. Reading bk33's Terms and Conditions once will help you bet more confidently.
