Cricket Betting at 35bd bat — Bet on Every Match from BPL to the T20 World Cup
Cricket is Bangladesh's most popular sport. Bet on T20, ODI and Test formats at 35bd bat — across markets from match winner to top batsman. Live betting, easy payments and support in Bangla, all in one place.
The three cricket formats and popular competitions
Cricket has three main formats — T20, ODI and Test. Each has its own pace, tactics and betting markets. Understanding these differences matters for betting, because a T20 match can turn around in three hours while a Test runs for five days.
T20 is the shortest format — 20 overs per innings. The ball-by-ball pace and last-over drama make it the format bettors prefer most. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are both played in this format, and they are the two competitions that get the most attention among Bangladeshi fans.
An ODI, or One Day International, has 50 overs per innings. Strategy plays a relatively bigger role here — run rate, partnerships and mid-innings shifts often influence betting decisions. The ICC Cricket World Cup is played in this format.
Test cricket is the longest and most tactical format. In this five-day match, weather, pitch conditions and the possibility of a draw set its betting markets apart. Unlike T20 or ODI, a Test has three possible outcomes — Team A wins, Team B wins, and a draw.
Beyond cricket — football and other sports
Alongside cricket, 35bd bat also offers football betting. Football betting works a little differently from cricket — results are decided within 90 minutes and a draw is a normal outcome, so the three-way market is usually available as standard. The World Cup, Premier League and Asian competitions are popular among Bangladeshi football fans.
Betting markets are also available for other sports like kabaddi, tennis and badminton, though it is important to understand each sport's own rules and scoring system. Odds in these markets are structured a little differently from cricket because match length, sets or round systems differ.
7 popular markets that attract the most bets
Each market works differently. Below is a brief overview of seven common markets — with a simple example for each.
Which team wins the match
The most straightforward market — pick which team will win the match. Example: if Team A wins, your bet succeeds; if Team B wins, your bet loses.
Which team wins the toss
The toss matters in cricket because it gives the winning captain the choice of batting or fielding based on pitch and weather. The toss market usually has just two options.
Who will score the most runs
Predict which batsman within a team will score the most runs. You choose one player from several options.
Will the total runs be more or less
The betting platform sets a runs line — for example, 160. You bet on whether the total runs scored will be over or under that number.
Who will take the most wickets
Which bowler will take the most wickets in the match — this market depends on both pace and spin bowling conditions.
Multiple bets combined
Combine the outcomes of several matches into one bet. Every selection you win increases your total return, but if any one of them loses, the whole bet is lost.
Handicap betting
When there is a gap in strength between two teams, a virtual advantage is given to the weaker team. Example: if Team A is given a 15-run handicap, you can still win your bet even if Team A scores 15+ runs fewer.
Decimal, fractional and American — how to read odds
Odds are a numerical expression of the potential return on a bet. Different platforms display odds in different formats, so it helps to understand all three. Below are three representations of the same odds.
| Format | If Team A wins | If Team B wins (favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 1/4 |
| American | +125 | -400 |
Example 1 — betting on Team A to win (৳500 stake)
Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. With a ৳500 stake, if Team A wins your total return is ৳1,125 — that is ৳625 profit plus your ৳500 stake back. If Team A loses, you lose ৳500.
Example 2 — favourite Team B (৳500 stake)
Team B is the favourite, so the odds are lower — decimal 1.25. American -400 means a ৳400 stake returns ৳100 profit. On a ৳500 stake, if Team B wins your total return is ৳625 — a profit of just ৳125.
Multi bet example
Three matches with decimal odds of 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.70 = 3.57 (approximately). A ৳100 stake wins ৳357 if all three selections come in. If any one of them loses, the full ৳100 is gone — that is the risk with multi bets.
Odds shift with every wicket — live in-play betting
Live Betting Now Active
You can place bets even after a match has started — that is live in-play betting. In cricket it is particularly engaging because the situation changes quickly with every wicket, every boundary and every over.
Say Team A gets off to a good start in the first ten overs — their odds to win will shorten because they look more likely to win. But if two wickets fall in the next over, the odds will jump back up. In live betting, these changes are visible in real time and you can act on them.
Live betting is most active in T20 matches — in the last five overs under run pressure, over/under and six-hit markets see odds move fast. In ODIs and Tests the changes are slower, but session-based markets remain interesting.
Keep in mind — live betting puts pressure on you to decide quickly. Staying within a set budget is the sensible approach. It is worth reading the responsible gaming guidelines.
Which markets are available in-play
- Who takes the next wicket
- Total runs in the next over (over/under)
- Six or four off the next ball
- Total runs remaining in the innings
- Match winner (at updated odds)
- Total wickets in the powerplay
Before you start betting — practical tips
- Start with one format: T20 matches are relatively short and results are easy to follow, so they are a good starting point for newcomers.
- Focus on one market: Betting across too many markets at once leads to confusion. Start by getting to know the match winner market well, then try others.
- Set a budget before you start: Decide how much you will bet before the session begins. Betting is a form of entertainment — chasing losses with bigger bets can cause problems.
- Compare odds: Comparing odds across different markets for the same match helps you see where the risk lies. This is straightforward to do in decimal format.
- Factor in pitch and weather: Especially in ODIs and Tests, pitch type and weather can change how a match plays out. This has a real effect on betting markets.
- Be careful with multi bets: Even though the potential return looks bigger in a multi bet, one wrong selection and you lose everything. Start with fewer selections.

Betting Exchange — a simple guide to BACK and LAY
Beyond a standard sportsbook, a betting exchange works differently — here you bet against other bettors, not against the platform.
BACK bet: You stake ৳1,000 on Team A to win at decimal 1.80. If Team A wins, you earn ৳800 profit before commission; if Team A does not win, you lose ৳1,000.
LAY bet: If you think Team A will not win, you LAY them. Against a backer staking ৳1,000, your liability is ৳800 (৳1,000 × 0.80). If Team A does not win, you receive ৳1,000 before commission; if Team A wins, you pay out ৳800.
Commission applies on exchanges and terms may differ. Please read the terms and conditions.
