77 bit Cricket Betting — Place bets on BPL, IPL and international matches
From T20 to Test, home series to tours abroad — 77 bit offers a range of markets across every cricket format. Before the match or during it, in-play odds let you make decisions at every moment.
The Cricket Bangladeshis Love
In Bangladesh, cricket is more than a sport — it is a passion. T20, ODI and Test each have a different style of betting. In T20, situations can change rapidly every over, so in-play markets are the most active. In ODIs, with longer innings, top batsman or total runs markets are more popular. In Tests, the possibility of a draw means there are separate markets for three outcomes.
BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) is one of the most popular tournaments among Bangladeshi fans. IPL also draws strong interest, especially for its T20 format. The ICC T20 World Cup and bilateral series also have a good number of markets on 77 bit. Every Tigers match brings fresh excitement — and in those moments, the betting markets become even more engaging.
Alongside cricket, 77 bit also offers betting on football and other sports. Football has three possible outcomes (win, draw, loss), so the odds structure differs from cricket. Basketball and tennis have no draw, so bets are limited to two sides — similar to cricket ODIs and T20s. Among Bangladeshi bettors, cricket markets remain the most widely used.
The Most Popular Cricket Markets
Understanding the different markets helps you stay engaged at any point in a match. Below are 7 common markets with a brief description of each.
Match Winner
The simplest market — which of the two teams will win. T20 and ODI have no draw, so you pick between Team A and Team B.
Most CommonToss Betting
Which team will win the toss — this market is active right before the match begins. Those who understand the importance of the toss based on the pitch or weather tend to follow this market.
Pre-match MarketTop Batsman
Who will score the most runs for their team — this market takes into account recent form and batting position. A separate market exists for each team.
Player-basedTotal Runs Over/Under
Whether total runs in an innings will be above or below a set number — no need to pick a winner here. Pitch type and conditions play a major role.
Runs-basedMethod of First Wicket
How the first wicket of the innings will fall — caught, bowled, LBW or another way. This is a speculative market, usually settled within the opening overs.
Short-termMulti Bet
Combining selections from multiple matches creates a multi bet. The odds multiply together, offering the chance of a larger return, but one wrong selection means the entire bet is lost. The 77 bit Bet guide covers this in detail.
Combined MarketHandicap and Over/Under — in detail
In a handicap market, the weaker team is given a notional run advantage, bringing the odds of both sides closer together. For example, if Team A is given a 20-run handicap, that amount is added to the final score to determine the winner — no specific stake or return applies here. Similarly, in an over/under market, a set line is established and the outcome is judged by whether the result falls above or below it.
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds
The odds for the same match can be written in three different formats. The numbers look different but represent the same probability. The table below gives two working examples — team names are always hypothetical (Team A / Team B) and do not represent real odds or guaranteed returns.
| Format | Team A (Underdog) | Team B (Favourite) | Explanation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | 1.80 | Multiply directly to get total return |
| Fractional | 2/1 | 4/5 | Numerator/Denominator — numerator is profit, denominator is stake |
| American | +200 | −125 | + means profit on ৳100 stake; − means stake needed to profit ৳100 |
Example 1 — If Team A wins
Team A's odds are decimal 3.00, fractional 2/1, American +200. A winning ৳200 bet returns ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 stake); if it loses, the ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B as Favourite
Team B's odds are decimal 1.80, fractional 4/5, American −125. In American format, a minus sign means the amount you need to stake to win ৳100. A winning ৳200 bet returns ৳360 (৳160 profit).
Multi Bet Example
Three selections with decimal odds of 1.40, 1.60 and 1.80. Combined odds: 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.80 = 4.03 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳403 if all selections win; if even one loses, the full ৳100 is gone.
In-Play Bets While the Match is On
In-play betting is the most fast-moving part of cricket. When a wicket falls, the odds for the leading team shorten, and after a big over, the odds for the chasing team come down. These changes happen almost instantly.
Say Team A is batting first in a T20 match. At the start, Team A's odds are 2.20 and Team B's are 1.65. If Team A loses 2 wickets and scores only 35 runs in 6 overs, Team B's odds could drop towards 1.30. Conversely, if Team A scores quickly, the odds balance out again.
There is less time to decide in in-play betting. Reading the situation and staying within your personal budget keeps the betting experience enjoyable. Following the responsible gaming guidelines is important here.
Beyond live betting, 77 bit also offers live casino games with real dealers — baccarat, roulette and Teen Patti — giving the same kind of live environment.
Since odds change quickly in in-play markets, it is worth checking the latest odds before your bet is confirmed. This is a normal part of betting.
Some Practical Cricket Betting Tips
A few straightforward tips from experienced bettors that help keep the betting experience organised.
- Understand the format first: T20 and Test cricket play very differently — one demands quick decisions, the other tests patience. Focus on the format you understand best.
- Start with one market: Get comfortable with the match winner market first. It is better not to bet across multiple markets before you understand them.
- Set a fixed budget: Decide how much to allocate for each match before it starts. Not chasing losses with extra bets is a basic principle of betting.
- Be careful with multi bets: Even if the combined odds look large, one wrong selection means losing everything. Start multi bets with a small stake.
- Do not rush in-play betting: Live odds change fast. Take time to read the situation rather than betting in a hurry.
- Betting is entertainment, not income: Treat betting as a form of entertainment. A win is never guaranteed, so only bet what you can afford to lose.
