Bet on cricket at 111 beat — place bets across every format from T20 to Test
From BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup to international Test series — 111 beat's sportsbook lets you bet on multiple markets across a wide range of matches. From live in-play betting to multi bets, every ball can change the game.
The three cricket formats and Bangladesh's favourite tournaments
T20 Cricket
This 20-over format is the most popular for betting. The game moves quickly, momentum shifts constantly, and odds move with every over. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are both played in this format, and the T20 World Cup is the most followed event for fans in Bangladesh.
One Day International
The 50-over ODI format lasts longer, giving more opportunity to adjust your betting strategy mid-match. Bangladesh Tigers' ICC World Cup campaigns are all played in this format, which makes it particularly engaging for bettors.
Test Cricket
Five-day Test cricket is suited to patient bettors. Bets can be placed based on pitch conditions, weather and the batting and bowling order. A draw is a valid result in Test cricket, so odds are divided across three possible outcomes.
BPL, IPL and international matches
BPL is the closest tournament to cricket fans in Bangladesh — the rivalry between local franchise teams makes betting all the more interesting. IPL is a favourite for many because the teams are high-profile and results are often unpredictable.
For every Bangladesh Tigers match at the T20 World Cup, various markets are available on 111 beat's sportsbook. Betting markets are also regularly available for other international matches organised by the ICC.
111 beat also offers betting on other sports including football, tennis and badminton. In the context of Bangladesh, however, cricket betting markets are the most active and varied. Football mainly covers match winner and goals markets, but cricket's range of over, ball and wicket-based markets sets it apart.
The most popular betting markets and a brief introduction
A range of markets is available on 111 beat's cricket betting. The most familiar markets are explained below, each with a simple example. Note that all examples given here are for illustration only.
Match Winner
You bet on which of the two teams will win. In T20 or ODI only team A or team B can win; in Test cricket a draw is also possible. Example — if you bet on team A to win and team B wins or the match is drawn, your bet loses.
Toss Winner
You can bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. There are only two outcomes — either team A or team B. This is a completely separate market and has no connection to the match result.
Top Batsman
You bet on which batsman will score the most runs for a given team. Example — if you think a particular batsman will lead the innings for team A, you can place a bet on that player.
Over / Under Runs
You bet on whether the total runs in an innings will be more (over) or less (under) than a set number. The bookmaker sets a line, for example 165.5 — you decide whether the team will score above or below that.
Multi Bet
You bet on multiple matches at once, and all the odds are multiplied together. Example — betting on three matches at odds of 1.40, 1.70 and 1.80 gives combined odds of 1.40 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.28 (approximately). A ৳100 stake returns ৳428 if all three selections win — but if any one loses, the entire stake is gone.
Powerplay Runs
You can bet on how many runs a team will score in the first six overs (powerplay). This can be interesting to consider given field restrictions and pitch type. The outcome changes depending on whether the boundary rate is high or low.
Decimal, fractional and American odds — how to read them
The same match's odds may be shown in different formats across sportsbooks. Once you understand them, all three formats are easy to follow. Below, all three are explained using a single concrete example:
| Format | If team A wins (example) | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Total return including stake: ৳3,000 (on a ৳1,000 stake) |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 wagered |
| American | +200 | ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake |
In the example above, a ৳1,000 bet on team A returns a total of ৳3,000 on a win (৳2,000 profit + ৳1,000 stake); if the bet loses, ৳1,000 is gone. All three formats represent the same opportunity for the same match — only the way they are written differs.
The favourite's odds are generally lower. For example, if team B is the favourite: decimal 1.50, fractional 1/2, American -200. A ৳1,000 bet returns a total of ৳1,500 on a win (৳500 profit). American minus odds (-200) indicate how much you need to stake to win ৳100 — in this case, ৳200.
Odds shift when wickets fall — how live betting works
Beyond pre-match betting, 111 beat also offers in-play or live betting. This means odds are recalculated at every moment while the match is in progress.
Say team A and team B are evenly placed at the start of a T20 match. If the batting team loses three wickets in the first three overs, the bowling team's chances increase and their odds drop. Conversely, after a run of fours and sixes, the batting team's odds begin to fall. These changes are reflected in real time during live betting.
If the situation changes suddenly in the death overs (overs 16–20), new markets may open. In live betting you can participate in markets such as total runs, the next wicket outcome or runs in a specific over. Odds move very fast, so it pays to watch closely.
- Wickets in the powerplay cause the bowling team's odds to drop quickly.
- A falling run rate in the middle overs increases pressure on the batting team and their odds rise.
- A small target generally means the chasing team starts with lower odds.
- A rain break can change the target under the Duckworth-Lewis method — and odds shift accordingly.
Practical advice for getting started with cricket betting
The best experience comes from treating betting as one part of your entertainment. The tips below are especially useful for new bettors:
- Set a budget: Decide in advance how much you will bet on each match and stay within that limit. Read the responsible gaming guidelines to stay aware of your betting habits.
- Start with one market: Beginners should stick to the match winner market at first. Betting on multiple complex markets at the same time can be confusing early on.
- Be careful with multi bets: While multi bets offer larger potential returns, a single wrong selection loses the whole stake. Combining more than three selections is hard to get right.
- Decide quickly in live betting: In-play odds change in an instant. Watch the market carefully rather than rushing into a bet.
- Choose markets to match the format: Match winner and top batsman are more active in Test cricket; total runs and live markets are more active in T20.
- Betting as entertainment: Betting is not a way to earn income — it is a way to add a different dimension to watching the game. Keeping this in mind makes betting enjoyable.
