Cricket's three formats and popular tournaments

In Bangladesh, cricket is more than a sport — it is a passion. At 345 bet you can bet on all three main formats: T20, ODI and Test.

T20 is the fastest format — each team plays just 20 overs. Betting odds shift very quickly in this format, especially after big shots. BPL and IPL are both T20 tournaments that attract a huge following among Bangladeshi fans.

ODI gives each team 50 overs. Betting strategy is somewhat different here — the nature of the match changes during the powerplay and middle overs. The T20 World Cup and various bilateral series are played in the ODI format.

Test cricket is a five-day game of patience. Matches can end in a draw, so the markets are structured differently from T20 or ODI. Betting activity is quite active during ICC Test Championship matches.

BPL — Bangladesh Premier League

The country's biggest T20 tournament. Every match is competitive, featuring a mix of local and overseas players.

T20 Local

IPL and International T20

IPL features the best players in the world. Betting interest reaches its peak during Bangladesh Tigers matches at the T20 World Cup.

T20 International

Football and other sports betting

345 bet football and other sports betting markets

Alongside cricket, 345 bet also offers betting on football and several other popular sports. Football has three possible outcomes — Team A wins, Team B wins, or a draw. Limited-overs cricket formats have no draw, so the market is structured differently.

Football has specialised markets such as goalscorer, half-time result or number of corners. In cricket, the equivalent markets include top batsman, top wicket-taker or total runs in a specific over.

In individual sports like badminton or tennis, bets are placed directly between two competitors, making the odds structure simpler. Each sport has its own rhythm — it is worth understanding the rules of a sport before placing a bet on it.

5 popular betting markets

Each market has its own strategy. Below is a brief overview of the most commonly used markets.

Match Winner

Which team will win — Team A or Team B? The simplest market. For example, if Team A's odds are 2.10 and Team B's are 1.75, betting on Team B carries comparatively less risk but also less reward.

T20 ODI Test

Toss Winner

Settled before the match starts — who will win the toss? This is completely separate from the match result. Since both outcomes are equally likely, the odds are generally very close to each other.

T20 ODI

Top Batsman

Which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match? This market offers separate odds for multiple players. A batsman in good form will generally have lower odds.

T20 ODI

Total Runs Over/Under

Will the total runs in an innings or the whole match be above or below a set number? For example, whether total runs in a T20 match will exceed 160 — this type of market is especially popular in live betting.

T20 ODI

Multi Bet (multiple selections)

Multiple bets from different matches or events are combined together. You only win the full amount if all selections are correct. Example: three selections at 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.90 = 4.26 (approximately) combined odds — on a ৳100 bet the return would be ৳426, but if even one selection is wrong, the entire ৳100 is lost.

All Formats

Top Wicket-Taker

Which bowler will take the most wickets in the match? In T20, powerplay bowlers and death-overs bowlers generally take more wickets, so there is room for strategy in this market.

T20 ODI Test

How to read odds?

Odds are displayed in three different formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability, just written differently. 345 bet generally uses the decimal format, which is also the easiest to understand.

See the example below — the same odds for Team A winning, shown in all three formats:

Decimal 3.00 Total return including original stake
Fractional 2/1 ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked
American +200 ৳200 profit on a ৳100 bet

If you bet ৳500 on Team A and win, the return is ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + original ৳500 stake back); if you lose, ৳500 is gone.

The favourite team generally has lower odds. For example, if Team B is the favourite:

Decimal 1.50
Fractional 1/2
American -200 ৳200 bet for ৳100 profit

Betting ৳500 on Team B and winning returns ৳750 (৳250 profit + ৳500 original stake). American minus odds show how much you need to bet to make ৳100 profit.

These examples are for illustration only — actual odds differ for each match and change according to live conditions. Read the FAQ for more details.

Every wicket shifts the odds — live betting

Live or in-play betting means placing bets while a match is in progress. In cricket this is particularly engaging because the situation can change with every ball.

Suppose Team A scores 50 runs in the first 5 overs of a T20 match. At that point Team A's odds of winning will shorten because they are ahead. If three wickets then fall in the next over, the odds can quickly swing in Team B's favour.

You can also bet on over-by-over markets — such as how many runs will be scored in the next over, or at what score the next wicket will fall. These smaller markets make live betting especially interesting.

Keep in mind — there is less time to decide in live betting. Rather than rushing into large bets, set a budget in advance and stick to it.

A few tips for enjoying betting

345 bet cricket betting tips and advice
01

Set a budget

Decide how much you will spend in each session before you start. Do not go beyond that limit — betting is for entertainment, not as a source of income.

02

Focus on one market

Start by focusing on simple markets like match winner or toss. Spreading bets across multiple markets at once can get complicated early on.

03

Understand the format before you bet

T20 and Test markets are different from each other. In T20, a batsman's form matters more; in Test, the pitch conditions are key.

04

Be patient in live betting

In in-play betting, wait for the right opportunity. It is better not to place large bets on impulse after every wicket.

Frequently asked questions — cricket betting

T20 is the fastest format — with matches finishing in 20 overs, odds shift very quickly and there is less time to decide during live betting. In ODI, with 50 overs per side, the pace is comparatively slower and there is more opportunity to reassess odds mid-match. In Test cricket, a draw is possible, so three outcome markets exist (Team A wins, Team B wins, Draw) — there is no draw in T20 or ODI.

No, in a multi bet you can combine selections from cricket, football or any other sport together. Keep in mind that if even one selection is wrong, the entire multi bet loses. The more selections you add, the higher the combined odds — but the lower the chance that all of them will be correct.

If a match is cancelled or abandoned due to rain or any other reason, the bet is generally voided in accordance with the betting rules and the bettor's original stake is returned. However, if a result is determined by the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) method, it is usually treated as a completed match. See the Terms and Conditions for specific rules.

In handicap betting, the weaker team is given a virtual advantage. For example, if Team A is given a 20-run handicap advantage, Team A's total score is calculated with those 20 runs added. Betting on the weaker team offers higher odds because they still need to win even after the handicap is applied.

Since both are T20 tournaments, the main markets are the same — match winner, top batsman, total runs and so on. However, IPL has more world-class players, so the market is deeper and various special markets are also available. Many Bangladeshi bettors have a particular preference for BPL because they are more familiar with the local players.
