Cricket Betting at abc777 — Best Markets for BPL, IPL and International Matches
Cricket is the most popular sport in Bangladesh. At abc777 you can bet on all three formats — T20, ODI and Test. Odds are available from before the match starts right through to the final over, so cricket fans can follow their favourite competitions closely.
Cricket's three formats and popular competitions
T20 — the fastest format
Each team plays just 20 overs, so the outcome can change at any moment. BPL and IPL are played in this format and are the most watched by Bangladeshi fans. The T20 World Cup is organised by ICC every two years.
ODI — the fifty-over contest
One Day Internationals are 50-over matches. The style of play shifts in the middle overs, which makes the betting markets more varied. Local interest in Bangladesh Tigers' ODI performances is always high.
Test — the five-day classic
Test cricket is a game of patience and strategy. The pitch changes over five days, weather has an impact, and a draw is a possible result. For this reason Test betting has three possible outcomes in the market (win, loss, draw), which T20 and ODI do not have.
How does football betting differ from other sports?
Cricket betting markets are far more detailed — runs per over, time of wicket, total runs in an innings — markets that are generally not available in football. In football the most popular markets are match winner, both teams to score and handicap. Sports like Kabaddi or Badminton have fewer markets, but abc777 carries a range of sports.
The biggest difference with cricket is its pace — five-day Test matches have long-term markets, while in T20 odds can shift within seconds after every over. Alongside cricket, detailed coverage of football and other sports is available at abc777 Bet.
Popular betting markets
Cricket betting is not just about the match winner — the markets below are available at abc777.
Match Winner
Bet on which team will win the match. T20 and ODI have two outcomes (Team A or Team B); Test has three (Team A win, Team B win, draw). The most straightforward market.
Toss Winner
A bet placed on the result of the toss before the match begins. This is unrelated to match performance — it is a purely luck-based market.
Top Batsman
Bet on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings. This is an individual performance market — it does not depend on the match result.
Total Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether the total runs in an innings will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. Example: whether the first powerplay will produce more than 50 runs.
Multi Bet
Multiple selections from different matches or markets are combined into one bet. If all selections are correct the return is much higher, but if even one is wrong the entire bet loses — see the odds section below for details.
Handicap and Run Line
To level the difference in strength between two teams, one team is given a virtual run advantage or deficit. The result is determined from the handicap score, not the actual score.
How to read odds — three formats
The odds for the same match may be shown in three formats. Decimal format is usually the default at abc777.
| Format | Team A win odds | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | Total return ৳2.50 per ৳1 bet (including stake) |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit per ৳2 bet |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet |
Example 1 — the same odds in three formats
Team A to win — ৳200 bet:
- Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150
- If you win: total return ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 stake)
- If you lose: the full ৳200 is lost
Team A and Team B — the numbers are examples only, not live odds or a guarantee of any return.
Example 2 — odds for the favourite
Team B to win (favourite) — ৳200 bet:
- Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400
- If you win: ৳250 returned (only ৳50 profit)
- American minus odds mean: how much you need to bet to win 100 — here ৳400
A favourite has lower odds, so the return is also lower — understanding the format helps avoid confusion.
Odds multiply in a multi bet
Three separate matches with decimal odds of 1.60, 1.70 and 1.80 — in a multi bet these are multiplied together:
1.60 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.90 (approximate)
A ৳100 bet returns ৳490 — but if any one selection is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost. A multi bet offers a higher potential return but also carries more risk.
The numbers in the examples are for illustration only — they are not a guarantee of any outcome.
Why are decimal odds the easiest?
Decimal odds show the total return directly — stake included. Fractional odds show only the profit, and the American system works differently. For new bettors, starting with decimal format is the simplest approach.
Live Betting — during the match
Once a match starts, odds in live in-play betting change continuously. When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds increase immediately because pressure shifts to the next batsman. The bowling team's odds drop accordingly.
As overs are completed, the odds on total runs markets also shift. If only 30 runs come in the first powerplay, the under market for the next over may become attractive. abc777's live betting shows these changes in real time.
One important aspect of live betting is the speed of decision-making — odds can change within seconds. Planning ahead helps. For easy mobile access, using the abc777 App is convenient.
- When a wicket falls, odds change instantly — new odds last only a few seconds.
- After the powerplay ends, the total runs market for the rest of the innings is updated separately.
- If the match is interrupted by rain or bad light, odds may be temporarily suspended.
Things to know before you start betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — not a way to earn money. There is no way to guarantee the outcome of any market, so it is best not to bet beyond your budget. Reading the responsible gaming policy can help you build some good habits.
- Set a budget: Decide in advance how much you will bet in a session. Once you reach that limit, stop for the day.
- Understand the market: Make sure you know the rules of the market you are betting on — handicap and over/under markets are a little more complex.
- Focus on one market: For new bettors it is a good idea to start with the match winner market — it is the most straightforward.
- Patience in live betting: Rushing a decision increases the chance of getting it wrong — take time to read the situation before odds move.
- Caution with multi bets: If one selection is wrong, the entire multi bet stake is lost — start with fewer selections.
Common mistakes in cricket betting
- Betting on a familiar team or player out of emotion — it is better to look at the market without bias.
- Placing a large bet after a loss to recover — this leads to even bigger losses.
- Spreading attention by betting on too many markets at once — starting with no more than two or three is better.
- Betting on the total runs market without understanding its rules — practise on paper first.
