Cricket Betting at c baji — Bet on every match from BPL to the T20 World Cup
From Bangladesh's most popular cricket tournaments to international series — c baji lets you bet across multiple markets including Match Winner, Toss, and Top Batsman, all in one place. Live betting is also available while the match is in progress.
Cricket's three formats and how betting differs
Each format has a different style of play, so the way you choose your betting markets changes too.
T20
20 overs per side — aggressive batting and bowling under pressure. BPL and IPL are played in this format. With results arriving quickly, Match Winner, highest runs, and multi bet are the most popular markets in T20. The number of sixes can change in any over, so live odds move fast.
ODI
Strategy differs slightly in a 50-over match. The pace shifts from the first powerplay through to the final ten overs. ODIs are most common in the ICC World Cup and bilateral series. Top Batsman and Total Runs Over/Under markets are popular in this format because a longer game gives more opportunity to analyse information.
Test
Five days of cricket — a test of patience and strategy. A draw is possible here, so odds are built around three outcomes (Team A win, Team B win, or draw). Test odds move relatively slowly compared to T20 or ODI.
BPL, IPL and International Matches
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) creates its own excitement among cricket fans in the country every year. IPL matches are also widely followed. The ICC T20 World Cup and international series featuring Bangladesh Tigers — all these competitions have their own appeal for betting. c baji lets you join in on these tournaments across a range of markets.
Alongside cricket, c baji also offers betting on football and other sports. In football, markets for number of goals and handicaps are popular in addition to match results. While cricket betting leans heavily on individual performance markets, team result markets carry more weight in football.
What are the popular betting markets?
c baji cricket betting gives you access to several markets. Each one has its own characteristics.
Match Winner
A bet on which team will win. In T20 there is no draw, so you pick one of two outcomes. If you pick Team A and Team B wins, the bet loses.
All formatsToss Winner
A bet on which team wins the toss at the start of the match — this market has no connection to what happens on the field. Both teams' chances of winning the toss are generally close to equal.
Simple marketTop Batsman
A bet on which batter scores the most runs in a specific innings. Batters in the upper order of a strong batting lineup naturally tend to have shorter odds.
ODI and T20Total Runs Over/Under
A specific run line is set. You bet on whether the total runs scored in a match or innings will be above or below that line.
All formatsTop Wicket Taker
A bet on which bowler takes the most wickets in an innings or match. Pitch conditions and a team's bowling attack shape how this market is approached.
Bowling specialMulti Bet
Multiple selections are combined into a single bet. If all selections are correct, the odds are multiplied together for a larger return. However, if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet loses. For more details, read the c baji Betting Tips Guide.
Higher returnHandicap and First Over Runs
In the handicap market, a weaker team is given an advantage — for example, if Team B is given a 20-run head start, that amount is added when calculating the bet outcome. The "First Over Runs" market requires you to estimate how many runs will be scored in a specific over. These markets help you bet based on your understanding of how the game is played, without any specific stake or mathematical formula required.
Decimal, Fractional and American — three odds formats
At c baji, odds are generally shown in three formats. The same odds written differently still mean the same thing. Here is an example to explain:
| Format | Format | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | If Team A wins, a ৳500 bet returns ৳1,500 in total (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake) |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked — the same odds written differently |
| American | +200 | A positive number shows how much profit a ৳100 bet makes — here it is 200 |
Now suppose Team B is the favourite. Decimal 1.50, Fractional 1/2, American -200. A negative American odds number means how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit — here it is ৳200. A ৳500 bet returns ৳750 in total (৳250 profit). If the bet loses, the ৳500 is gone.
In-play betting during the match — odds change every ball
In-play or live betting means you can still place bets after the match has started. In cricket, odds update immediately when a wicket falls or a big six is hit. For example, if a team loses 5 wickets, their odds of winning lengthen (because their chances have dropped); and if 50 runs are needed off 20 balls, the odds shift again.
Some markets may be temporarily suspended at the start of each new over after the previous one ends. Once the powerplay is over, odds are recalculated based on the run rate. To make the most of this, you need to watch how the match is progressing closely.
Remember — betting is for entertainment. In-play betting requires quick decisions, so it is important to set your budget in advance. You should read c baji's Responsible Gaming guidelines on playing responsibly.
When do odds change?
- When a wicket falls — odds shorten in favour of the bowling team
- A big six or four — odds improve for the batting team
- End of the powerplay — odds are recalculated based on the run rate
- Final 5 overs — odds change quickly due to the pressure of the death overs
- An injured player or rain delay — any unexpected event
Useful tips for cricket betting
Betting is a form of entertainment. These tips will help you keep the experience enjoyable.
Set your budget first
Decide how much you want to bet before each match. If you lose, do not chase losses with larger bets.
Start with one market
If you are new, start with the Match Winner market. If you do not yet understand multiple markets well, it is better not to jump into multi bets.
Understand the pitch and weather
A batting pitch tends to produce higher scores. If rain is forecast, the D/L method may affect the match result.
Do not bet on emotion
It is natural to support your favourite team, but it is better not to base betting decisions on emotion alone.

What happens when you combine multiple selections into one bet?
A multi bet lets you combine the results of three separate matches into one bet. Say three selections have decimal odds of 1.60, 1.80 and 1.90 respectively. Multiplying all three gives combined odds of 5.47 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳547 if all selections are correct.
However, if any one of the three selections is wrong, the entire ৳100 is lost. A multi bet offers a higher return but also carries higher risk. For this reason, it is generally better to keep your stake small on multi bets. Regular betting on c baji's VIP Programme gives you access to weekly cashback benefits.
