3333 bet Cricket Betting — Understand Odds in T20, ODI and Test
From BPL and IPL to the international T20 World Cup — bet on every format of cricket at 3333 bet. Understand the markets, read the odds, enjoy the game.
Three Cricket Formats and the Main Competitions
Before getting into cricket betting, it helps to know the three formats separately, because the type of bets available differs in each.
T20 — A match of just 20 overs. Fast-moving and the most popular for live betting. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are both played in this format. The Bangladesh Tigers' matches at the T20 World Cup are closely followed across the country.
ODI — A 50-over one-day match. This format carries its own significance at ICC events. Because the match is longer, more stats-based markets open up at different stages of each innings.
Test — A five-day match. With the possibility of a draw, markets offer three results — Team A win, Team B win, or draw. Patient bettors tend to focus on innings total or Top Batsman markets in Tests.
3333 bet gives you the chance to bet on all three formats. For those who also enjoy casino games during breaks, you can check out live table games at 3333 Casino.
BPL
The Bangladesh Premier League is the country's biggest T20 league. Local fans follow domestic team matches closely, and the range of betting markets during BPL season is especially varied.
T20 Domestic LeagueIPL
The Indian Premier League is the most talked-about international T20 league. Fans in Bangladesh follow IPL matches closely and participate in the betting markets.
T20 International LeagueInternational Matches
The Bangladesh Tigers' matches at the T20 World Cup, ICC Champions Trophy and bilateral series are watched with great enthusiasm across the country. These matches also tend to have a higher number of available markets.
ODI · T20 · TestNot just cricket — Football and Other Sports
At 3333 bet, you can bet on football as well as cricket. In football, three results are possible in each match — Team A win, Team B win, or draw — so the odds structure is different from cricket ODIs and T20s.
Just as Test cricket can end in a draw, a draw is a normal result in football too. But in T20 or ODI cricket, a draw does not usually happen — so those formats offer only two possible outcomes to bet on.
Markets are also available on table tennis, badminton and virtual sports. Cricket still receives the most markets on this site, especially during BPL and IPL seasons.
For a break from betting, the 3333 bet Slots section has hundreds of slot games available to play at any time.
Popular Betting Markets — How Each One Works
Multiple markets open for every cricket match. Below is a brief introduction to seven common markets — the numbers are purely for illustration; actual odds always vary.
Match Winner
Which team will win the match — two options in T20/ODI, three in Test (including draw). The simplest and most common market. Example: if Team A wins, your bet wins; if Team B wins, your bet loses.
All FormatsToss Betting
A bet on which team will win the toss. The result is entirely down to chance. Example: if Team A wins the toss, your bet wins; if Team B wins, you lose.
All FormatsTop Batsman
A bet on which batter will score the most runs for their team. Injuries or team changes can affect the result. Example: if the selected player scores the most runs for Team A, your bet wins.
T20 · ODITotal Runs — Over / Under
A bet on whether the total runs scored in an innings or the full match will be above or below a set number. Example: if more than 160 runs are scored, the "Over" bet wins.
T20 · ODIMulti Bet
Selections from multiple matches combined into one bet. All selections must be correct to win; one wrong pick loses the entire bet. Example: three selections with decimal odds of 1.50, 1.70 and 1.80 — combined odds are 4.59.
Any SportWicket Markets
Who takes the next wicket, or how many wickets fall in a specific over — these markets are very popular in live betting. Example: a wicket falls in the next over — if correct, your bet wins.
Live BettingHandicap and Run-Line Markets
When there is a clear difference in strength between two teams, the bookmaker gives one team a virtual advantage or disadvantage to balance the market. For example, if Team A is given a handicap of minus 15 runs, their final score is reduced by 15 when determining the result. Understanding the concept matters more than any specific numerical example — the handicap on any given match is always subject to change.
ODI · TestOdds in Three Formats — Explained with Examples
The same probability can be written in three ways: decimal, fractional and American. Once you recognise the formats, reading any market becomes straightforward.
The Same Value in Three Formats
Say Team A will win — the odds on this bet are 2.50 (decimal), 3/2 (fractional) or +150 (American). A ৳1,000 stake on Team A winning returns ৳2,500 — that includes ৳1,500 profit and your original ৳1,000 stake. If Team A loses, you lose ৳1,000.
| Format | Written as | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | ৳1,000 stake returns ৳2,500 in total (profit ৳1,500) |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 stake (plus sign means underdog) |
What do favourite odds look like?
Team B will win — odds are 1.80 (decimal), 4/5 (fractional) or -125 (American). American minus odds mean you need to stake that amount to make a ৳100 profit. A ৳1,000 stake on Team B winning returns ৳1,800 in total (profit ৳800).
| Format | Written as | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.80 | ৳1,000 stake returns ৳1,800 in total (profit ৳800) |
| Fractional | 4/5 | ৳4 profit for every ৳5 staked |
| American | -125 | Stake ৳125 to make ৳100 profit |
Multi Bet Calculation
What happens if instead of betting on three matches separately, you combine them into one bet?
Decimal 1.50 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.59
A ৳100 stake returns ৳459 if all selections are correct. But if even one selection is wrong, the entire ৳100 is lost.
A multi bet can return more, but the risk is also higher — betting is for entertainment, not a way to earn income.
Live Betting — Odds Change with Every Wicket and Over
Beyond placing bets before a match starts, live or in-play betting lets you bet while the match is in progress, with markets updating after every ball.
For example, if no wicket has fallen in the first five overs, the "Match Winner" odds for the batting team shorten — because the market assumes their chances of winning have improved. If three quick wickets then fall, the odds shift again.
What you see in live markets: current score, overs bowled, run rate, required run rate — based on this information, the market automatically displays updated odds.
Live betting in T20 moves fastest — five sixes in a single over can change the entire course of the match. For guidance on betting responsibly, read the responsible gaming guidelines.
Decisions in live betting need to be made quickly. It is best to start with small stakes after you understand the market.
Practical Betting Tips — For Beginners
- Start with one market. The Match Winner market is the simplest — get comfortable with it first, then move on to other markets.
- Adjust your approach by format. T20 in-play and Test session-based markets are completely different.
- Be careful with multi bets. Even if the potential return looks attractive, one wrong selection loses the entire stake.
- Set your budget in advance. Decide how much you will stake per day or per match — and do not change it after a win or a loss.
- Betting is entertainment, not income. Cricket betting can add to the enjoyment of watching a match — but treating it as a source of earnings puts you at risk.
- Read the terms. Before taking up any offer, read the terms and conditions carefully.
