Formats and Competitions

Cricket's three formats and Bangladesh's favourite tournaments

Cricket is a sport where three different formats offer three different experiences — and the way you bet on each format is also a little different.

T20 Cricket

Just 20 overs, fast results and drama on every ball. BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup are the most popular among Bangladeshi fans. Odds shift quickly in this format, which makes live betting especially engaging.

ODI Cricket

In 50-over matches, both strategy and endurance matter. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in this format. Bangladesh Tigers are strong in ODIs — which means market opportunities open up in every innings.

Test Cricket

In a five-day match, a draw is a possible result, so odds run three ways. A range of markets is available here, covering innings totals, top scorer and pitch conditions.

For cricket fans in Bangladesh, BPL means the winter festival. The intense battle the country's top franchise teams put up through to the final becomes even more enjoyable in the m baji cricket betting section. There are also plenty of active markets for IPL and international tournaments.

Football betting works much like cricket — there are match winner, total goals and handicap markets. In football, however, a draw is a possible result in every match, and odds shift after each goal. Other sports such as tennis or badminton have fewer markets, but the core idea is the same — betting on the outcome of a team or competitor.

Market Variety

Popular betting markets — seven options on one platform

There are many ways to bet on cricket beyond just asking who will win the match. The markets used most on m baji are explained below in plain language.

View all markets on m baji Bet

1Match Winner

Which team will win the match — this is the simplest market. In T20 and ODI there are only two outcomes (in Test there are three — Team A, Team B or Draw). Example: if Team A wins, the bet is successful; if not, the stake is lost.

2Toss Winner

A bet on which captain will win the toss before the match starts. The result does not depend on the match itself, so odds are generally close on both sides — a well-known market for quick results.

3Top Batsman

A bet on which batsman will score the most runs in a specific innings. Several candidates exist within a team, so odds vary. If you know a particular player is in good form, this market can be of special interest.

4Total Runs Over/Under

A bet on whether the total runs in a full innings or a set number of overs will be more (over) or less (under) than a given number. Example: whether more than 50 runs will be scored in the first powerplay.

5First Wicket Fall Runs

A bet on a range for the team's total score at the time the first wicket falls. If the openers play aggressively, the over bet has a better chance of coming in.

6Multi Bet (Multiple Selections)

Multiple matches or events can be combined in a single bet — if all selections win, the full combined odds are multiplied to give the return. Read the FAQ for detailed multi bet rules.

7Top Bowler

A bet on which bowler will take the most wickets — particularly popular in Test and ODI cricket. The pitch type and weather can help you think about whether conditions favour spinners or pacers.

Understanding Odds

Decimal, fractional and American odds — what does each one mean?

The same bet on the same match can be written in three different ways — but the underlying meaning is the same. The two examples below will make this clear.

Odds Type Odds for Team A to win Odds for Team B to win
Decimal 2.25 1.80
Fractional 5/4 4/5
American +125 −125

Example 1 — Betting on Team A to win (৳500 stake)

Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. If the bet wins, the return is ৳1,125 — made up of ৳625 profit and the ৳500 original stake. If the bet loses, ৳500 is gone.

Example 2 — Team B the favourite (৳500 stake)

Decimal 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American −125. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100. A winning ৳500 stake returns ৳900 — a profit of ৳400.

The higher the odds, the higher the potential return — but the lower the implied chance of winning.

m baji In-Play Live Betting Wickets and Overs
Live Betting

In-play betting during the match — odds change on wicketsLIVE

Live betting is one of the most exciting aspects of cricket. On m baji, odds continue to update after the match has started — the numbers shift every time a wicket falls or a big shot is played.

Say two wickets fall in the first over — at that moment, Team B's odds of winning will shorten and Team A's will lengthen. In live betting, this change is visible instantly.

If, after the powerplay, a team has scored more than expected, the odds on that team winning in the mid-match markets will come down. In other words, there is an opportunity to bet based on how the situation unfolds as you watch the match.

Keep in mind though — live betting moves fast, so set your own limits before placing a bet. Play for entertainment.

Betting Tips

Some useful advice for beginners

Start with one type of market. Match winner or toss — these simple markets are easy to understand. Once you are comfortable, you can move on to other markets.

Be careful with multi bets. Combining selections increases the potential return, but if one fails the entire bet is lost. Only try it when you have a good understanding of every selection.

Consider pitch and weather. On a dry, spin-friendly pitch, spinners have more influence. In overcast conditions, pacers get swing. This information is useful when choosing markets.

Set a fixed budget. Decide in advance how much you will bet on each match. Chasing losses by betting more turns betting from entertainment into a problem.

Understand odds formats. Multiplying decimal odds directly gives the total return — 1.8 × ৳500 = ৳900. Once you understand this, fractional or American odds will not seem confusing.

Avoid rushing in live betting. Odds change quickly, but you do not need to bet on every shift. Make a decision when a particular moment feels right for a wager.

Play responsibly. Betting is a form of entertainment — not a source of income. If it starts to feel like more than that, read the responsible gaming guide.

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions about cricket betting

T20 and ODI matches generally have more markets — including innings-based totals, powerplay scores and live markets. Test matches have markets too, but in-play changes are slower due to the longer duration of the game. Most bettors are most active during BPL and IPL T20 tournaments.

Yes, selections from different sports can generally be combined in the same multi bet — though it is worth checking the specific terms on the platform. In a multi bet, all selections must win for a full return: three selections at 1.50 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 5.13x — a ৳100 stake could return ৳513, but if even one selection loses, the entire ৳100 is lost.

If a match is cancelled or the required number of overs is not completed due to rain, bets are generally voided and the stake is returned. However, if the match is completed under the Duckworth-Lewis method (DLS), the result may be considered valid. Full details on this can be found in m baji's rules and terms.

In live betting, odds can update after every ball — changes are immediate, especially when a wicket falls, a big six is hit, or a no-ball is bowled. At certain moments (such as while the ball is in play), placing bets may be temporarily suspended — this is normal.

In American odds, the minus sign means that team or player is the favourite. −125 means a ৳125 stake returns ৳100 profit — a total return of ৳225. This is the same as 1.80 in decimal. The plus sign (+125) means the underdog — a ৳100 stake returns ৳125 profit, a total of ৳225 — which is 2.25 in decimal.
