Cricket Betting at dk 33 — Best Experience for BPL, IPL and International Matches
From T20 to Test — bet on every format. With live odds, multiple markets and straightforward payments, dk 33 is fully ready for cricket fans in Bangladesh.
Cricket's Three Formats and Popular Tournaments
To understand cricket betting, you first need to know how the three formats differ from each other. The pace of play, team strategy and betting opportunities vary across each format — so the same market works differently in all three.
T20: The fastest format — 20 overs per side. In Bangladesh, BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and the international T20 World Cup are played in this format. The game changes quickly, making this format especially active for live betting.
ODI: In one-day cricket, each side plays 50 overs. The ICC World Cup and Asia Cup are held in this format. Many markets stay open mid-match, particularly over-under runs and partnership betting.
Test: This longer five-day format involves greater depth of strategy. Since a draw is a possible result, the match winner market here has three options — Team A wins, Team B wins and draw.
IPL is India's top T20 league and is hugely popular among viewers in Bangladesh as well. At dk 33, regular betting markets are available for BPL, IPL and international tournament matches.
Beyond Cricket — Differences in Betting on Football and Other Sports
dk 33 is not limited to cricket — there are opportunities to bet on football and various other sports. However, the betting structure for each sport is different.
In football, you can bet on three outcomes in a 90-minute match: win, draw or loss. Handicap, goal over-under and corner betting are available as separate markets. Compared to cricket, football scorelines fluctuate less, so the rhythm of in-play betting is different.
In cricket, every ball, every over and every wicket shifts the odds. In T20, betting looks completely different in the final five overs. The pitch, dew factor and batting lineup — all of these together make cricket betting far more fast-moving.
Betting markets are also available for sports like tennis, badminton and kabaddi. These sports generally have fewer markets than cricket or football, but match winner and handicap markets are available in almost all of them.
7 Popular Markets in Cricket and How They Work
Each market needs to be understood separately — beyond just "who will win", cricket offers many different types of bets.
The simplest market — you predict which team will win the match. In T20 and ODI there are two options (Team A or Team B), in Test there are three (win, draw or loss). Example: Team A vs Team B — if you choose Team B, your bet wins only if Team B wins.
This bet is settled before the match even starts. The only question is which team will win the toss. It is entirely luck-based, as the toss does not depend on any team's skill. However, since it is a quick-result market, many people use it as a warm-up.
You need to pick which batsman will score the most runs for their team. Taking each team's batting order and current form into account makes this a relatively analytical market.
The bookmaker sets a specific runs line — for example, 160. You predict whether the total runs will be above (over) or below (under) that number. The pitch and weather play a major role in this market.
Which bowler will take the most wickets — the pitch type and the opposing team's batting strength are especially relevant here. On spin-friendly pitches, spinners' odds shorten, while on pace-friendly pitches, pacers' odds do.
Combining multiple markets together creates a multi bet. All selections must be correct for the whole bet to win. Example: placing bets on three different matches at once means the total odds are the product of all three — higher potential return, but also higher risk.
Innings and Over-Based Markets
Beyond these, markets for the number of runs in the first 6 overs (powerplay) of each innings, total runs in a specific over and the method of the next wicket (caught, bowled, run out) are also available in major tournaments. In dk 33 Bet's full sportsbook, these markets are available in detail.
Odds in Three Formats — Decimal, Fractional and American
The same odds can be written in three formats. The examples below make the difference clear.
| Format | Team A Win (Even Odds) | Team B Win (Favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | 1.50 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | 1/2 |
| American | +200 | -200 |
Example 1 — Team A Win (৳1,000 bet)
Decimal odds 3.00, fractional 2/1, American +200 — all three mean the same thing. A ৳1,000 bet returns ৳3,000 if it wins (৳2,000 profit + ৳1,000 original stake). If it loses, you lose ৳1,000.
Example 2 — Team B Win (Favourite, ৳1,000 bet)
Decimal 1.50, fractional 1/2, American -200. A negative American figure means how much you need to bet to win ৳100 — here it is 200. A winning ৳1,000 bet returns ৳1,500 (৳500 profit).
Which Format Will You See Where?
- Decimal — Most common in Europe and Bangladesh. Multiply directly to get the total return.
- Fractional — A British traditional format. Numerator ÷ denominator × stake = profit.
- American — A plus means profit on 100, a minus means how much to stake to make 100 profit.
- All three formats are just different ways of writing the same odds.
Live In-Play Betting — Odds Change When a Wicket Falls
The ability to place bets after a match has started is what live betting is about. In cricket, the situation changes after every ball — when a wicket falls, the batting team's odds may rise, and after a six is hit, the bowling team's odds may go up.
In the MT Live Betting section, real-time odds updates and multiple live markets are available during matches.
Practical Examples of Multi Bets and Cricket Match Winners
Below are two practical examples that are commonly seen in cricket betting.
Cricket Match Winner (ODI)
In a limited-overs match (no draw except a tie or super over):
- Team A decimal odds: 1.65
- Team B decimal odds: 2.30
- ৳500 bet on Team B — if Team B wins, return: ৳1,150 (৳650 profit)
- If Team A wins, you lose ৳500
Multi Bet on Three Selections
A multi bet on three different matches with decimal odds of 1.60, 1.70 and 1.90:
- Total odds: 1.60 × 1.70 × 1.90 = 5.17 (approximate)
- If all three win on a ৳100 bet, return: ৳517
- If even one loses, you lose the full ৳100
- Higher potential return, but much higher risk
Practical Tips for Cricket Betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — it is not a way to earn income. Keeping the following tips in mind makes the experience more enjoyable.
- Start with one market: Begin with match winner or toss betting. Placing bets on many markets at once splits your focus.
- Read the pitch report: Spin vs pace — knowing the pitch type makes it easier to decide on top bowler or runs over-under markets.
- Set a budget in advance: Keep a separate budget for each session and do not go beyond that limit. Betting is for enjoyment — not for chasing losses.
- Avoid rushing in live betting: When a wicket falls, let the situation settle a little before changing your bet.
- Keep multi-bets small: Limit yourself to two or three selections. Adding more selections quickly reduces the overall chance of winning.
- Play responsibly: If betting is causing you stress or anxiety, read the responsible gaming guidelines.
