g baji Cricket Betting — All Matches from BPL to the T20 World Cup
g baji brings a complete cricket betting experience for cricket fans in Bangladesh — place bets on markets including match winner, toss and top batsman, and enjoy live odds.
The Three Formats of Cricket and Major Tournaments
Before betting on cricket, it helps to understand the formats, because each format is played differently — and that changes the types of markets available.
T20: The fastest format, where each team plays 20 overs. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL (Indian Premier League) are the most popular among Bangladeshi fans. In T20 matches, wickets and runs can change quickly — making it particularly suited to live betting.
ODI: In a 50-over one-day match, the pace of play is relatively slower, but the excitement is no less. ODI markets are most active during international events like the ICC World Cup and T20 World Cup. Bangladesh Tigers matches in this format receive particular attention.
Test: Five-day Test cricket is a completely different game. Since a draw is possible, there are three-outcome markets — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw. Having three options means the odds are somewhat lower in comparison.
Beyond BPL and IPL, you can also bet on major international cricket events at g baji. All active markets can be found on the g baji Bet page.
Popular Betting Markets and Examples
In cricket, there are many more markets beyond just "which team will win". Below are the seven most commonly used markets with simple examples.
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which of the two teams will win. In T20 and ODI there are only two outcomes, so the market is straightforward.
Most PopularToss Winner
Who will win the toss — Team A or Team B? This is a pure 50-50 chance, so the odds are nearly equal. A quick, small market for fast decisions.
Quick BetTop Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in a specific innings? Pick one from the team — the result depends on that innings' performance.
Expert MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
Choose whether the total runs in an innings or the full match will be more (over) or less (under) than a set number. Example: "Will Team A score more than 160 runs in the first innings?"
Statistics MarketMulti Bet
Combine results from multiple matches in a single bet. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply for a larger return. If even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost — so the risk is higher.
Multiple MarketsRuns Per Over
How many runs will be scored in a specific over (such as the powerplay or death overs)? This market is especially active in live betting because the situation changes quickly.
Live FavouriteHandicap Betting
A method of narrowing the gap between two unevenly matched teams to make the market more balanced. The weaker team is given a notional run advantage, giving both sides a fairer chance.
Useful in One-Sided MatchesHow to Read Odds — Three Formats
In betting, odds are written in three different formats: Decimal, Fractional and American. All three express the same probability — only the way they are written differs.
| Format | Odds (if Team A wins) | What does it mean? |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | Total return of ৳2.25 for every ৳1 bet (profit + original stake) |
| Fractional | 5/4 | ৳5 profit for every ৳4 bet |
| American | +125 | ৳125 profit on a ৳100 bet (plus sign means underdog) |
Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. If the bet wins, the return is ৳1,125 — that is a profit of ৳625 plus the original stake of ৳500. If the bet loses, ৳500 is gone.
Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100 — here it is ৳400. On a ৳500 stake, a win returns ৳625 (profit of only ৳125).
The favourite's odds are usually lower, so the profit is smaller. The underdog's odds are higher — the chance of winning is lower but the profit is greater. Both examples above are for illustration only — they are not actual or guaranteed returns.
Live Betting — Odds Change During the Match
Live or in-play betting means placing bets while the match is in progress. In cricket this is particularly engaging because every wicket, every over and even every ball can change the situation.
Odds Shift on Wickets
When an opener is dismissed, that team's batting strength weakens — so their odds of winning immediately increase. The opposition's odds fall in response.
Changes After Each Over
If the run rate is high after the powerplay, the batting team's odds shorten. A low run rate shifts the odds in favour of the bowling side.
Quick Decisions Required
Live markets close fast. If you want to bet at a specific moment, you need to decide right away.
Live betting is a big part of the entertainment — but in a fast-changing environment, set a budget in advance and do not go beyond it. For information on responsible betting, visit our Responsible Gaming page.

Practical Tips for Cricket Betting
Set Your Budget Beforehand
Before each session, decide how much you will bet. Betting is for entertainment — winning and losing are both possible, so only bet what you can afford to lose.
Understand One Market Well First
Start by gaining experience with simple markets like match winner or toss. Then gradually move to markets like top batsman or over/under.
Be Careful with Multi Bets
Multi bets can look attractive with their higher returns — but if any selection is wrong, the entire stake is lost. Adding more than three selections significantly raises the risk.
Do Not Rush in Live Betting
Odds change quickly in in-play betting. After a wicket falls, think the situation through rather than placing a large bet on impulse.
