Cricket Formats and Tournaments

Cricket fans in Bangladesh mainly follow and bet on three formats — T20, ODI and Test. Each format has its own character, and the betting markets change accordingly.

T20 is the fastest format. In a 20-over match the situation can change on every ball, so live odds move very quickly. BPL is Bangladesh's most popular T20 tournament, while India's IPL and the T20 World Cup draw the most attention at the international level.

ODI is a 50-over format with a better balance of batting, bowling and fielding. The Bangladesh Tigers' one-day performances generate particular interest in the local betting market. Mid-match betting here gives slightly more time to think before placing a bet.

Test cricket is a five-day contest. Beyond the match winner, this format offers series score markets, likely end-of-day results, and innings-based markets. ICC World Test Championship matches are also available for betting on megapari apps.

Football and Other Sports Betting

megapari apps football and sports betting markets

Alongside cricket, megapari apps offers betting on football, tennis, badminton and several other sports. Football has the largest number of markets — match winner, both teams to score, correct score, first-half result, and more.

The main difference between cricket and football betting is the possibility of a draw. Football has three possible outcomes (Team A wins, Team B wins, draw), so the odds structure is different. T20 or ODI cricket generally does not end in a draw, so odds are split between two sides. Test cricket can end in a draw, making its odds structure three-way like football.

Popular Betting Markets

Cricket betting has many types of markets. The most commonly played ones are briefly explained below.

Match Winner

A bet on which team will win the match. You choose one of Team A or Team B. The simplest market and a good place to start.

T20 ODI Test

Toss Winner

A bet on which team wins the toss before the match begins. This is a separate market with no connection to the outcome of the match itself.

Toss

Top Run Scorer

A bet on which batter will score the most runs in an innings or across the full match. You pick a favoured batter from within a team.

Batting

Total Runs Over/Under

A bet on whether the total runs scored will be above or below a set number. Example: "more than 160 runs" — this does not depend on a specific result.

Over/Under

Top Wicket Taker

A bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. Interest in this market rises depending on the effectiveness of pace bowlers or spinners.

Bowling

Multi Bet

Multiple bets are combined together. If all selections are correct, the full combined return is paid out. A detailed example is given in the odds section below.

How Odds Work

Odds are written in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability; only the way they are written differs.

Example 1 — the same odds in three formats:
Team A to win, stake ৳1,000. Decimal: 2.25 = Fractional: 5/4 = American: +125. If the bet wins, you get back ৳2,250 (৳1,250 profit plus ৳1,000 stake returned). If it loses, ৳1,000 is deducted.

Example 2 — favourite's odds:
Team B to win at decimal: 1.50 = Fractional: 1/2 = American: −200. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳1,000 bet the return is ৳1,500 (৳500 profit).

The decimal format is the easiest to understand — just multiply your stake by the odds to get your total return. megapari apps lets you view all three formats and switch between them whenever you like.

Multi bet example:
Combining three bets — decimal 1.40, 1.80, 1.90 — gives combined odds of 1.40 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 4.79 (approximately). On a ৳100 stake, if all three bets win the return is ৳479. If even one loses, the full ৳100 is gone.

Format Team A (example) Team B (example)
Decimal 2.25 1.50
Fractional 5/4 1/2
American +125 −200
Return on ৳1,000 stake ৳2,250 ৳1,500

These figures are examples for explaining formats only — actual odds vary by match and market.

Live In-Play Betting

Live betting is active

Live in-play betting means placing bets in real time while the match is in progress. Odds change quickly when a wicket falls, an over ends, or during a batting powerplay. These fluctuations make live betting particularly appealing to cricket fans.

Say Team A has scored 50 runs in 5 overs — at that point the total runs over/under market odds will look very different from before the match. Similarly, if a wicket falls in the first over, the match winner odds shift quickly. On megapari apps, live markets update automatically, so you can watch the match and make decisions based on how the game is developing.

One advantage of live betting is the ability to place a bet after seeing how the match is unfolding. Keep in mind though — betting is for entertainment, not a guaranteed source of income. Read the responsible gaming guidelines and stay within your budget.

Practical Tips for Cricket Betting

  • Set a budget first. Before each session, decide on a fixed amount for yourself and do not go beyond that limit. Betting is part of entertainment, not a way to earn income.
  • Focus on one market. For new bettors, it is better to start with simple markets like match winner or toss. Placing bets on many markets at once makes things complicated.
  • Watch the pitch and weather. On a pace-friendly pitch, early wickets are more likely; on a spin-friendly pitch, runs tend to be lower. This information helps when making decisions in the over/under market.
  • Be careful with multi bets. Combining multiple bets increases the potential return, but one losing bet means everything is lost. Combining more than three bets increases the risk considerably.
  • Avoid rushing in live betting. When odds are changing fast, watch how the match is going rather than making a quick decision. Placing a large bet driven by emotion can lead to regret.
  • Take breaks. Betting for a long stretch reduces your ability to make good decisions. Take breaks from time to time and remember — entertainment is the main purpose here.

Keep in mind

Cricket betting is a form of entertainment. There is no guaranteed method of winning. For information on all betting-related details and limits, visit the FAQ page.

Frequently Asked Questions

The main betting markets are the same — match winner, toss, over/under, and so on. However, since BPL features Bangladesh's own teams, local bettors tend to have more information about familiar players. IPL has more teams and a slightly wider variety of markets. Both tournaments offer live and pre-match betting on megapari apps.

If a match is cancelled due to rain or any other reason, or if the required number of overs is not bowled, stakes are generally refunded. Whether a refund applies or whether a reduced-overs result stands depends on the rules of that specific market on megapari apps. Full details can be found in the terms and conditions.

In T20, the result is decided in fewer overs, so the stronger team typically has lower odds (as favourite). In Test cricket, conditions can change many times over five days, so the gap between odds is often smaller. A draw is a valid result in Tests, meaning odds are split three ways — which does not happen in T20 or ODI.

Odds move fastest at the moment a wicket falls and after the powerplay ends. In T20, if there are big runs or wickets in the first 6 overs (powerplay), the over/under market for the rest of the match shifts considerably. If a batter hits a quick fifty mid-match, the scoring rate market also moves.

Yes, on megapari apps you can combine bets from different sports in a multi bet. Keep in mind — if even one bet loses, the entire multi bet is void and the full stake is lost. Combining three bets (decimal 1.40 × 1.80 × 1.90) gives a combined odds of approximately 4.79, returning ৳479 on a ৳100 stake if all three win.
