555bet Cricket Betting — bet on every match from BPL to T20 World Cup
Match winner, toss, top batsman, live in-play — 555bet brings you the chance to bet on every moment in cricket.
Cricket's Three Formats and Major Tournaments
Interest in cricket betting has always been strong in Bangladesh — every match the Tigers play carries a special excitement for fans. At 555bet, you can bet across all three main formats of cricket.
T20: The fastest format of the game. Matches finish in just 20 overs, so odds shift quickly. BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup are the three most popular tournaments among Bangladeshi bettors. Emotions run high around BPL as it features home teams, while the IPL brings fresh anticipation every year.
ODI: In this fifty-over format, the pace is slightly slower but strategy plays a bigger role. International series and the ICC Champions Trophy are the main attractions here.
Test: In this five-day format, a draw is a possible result — so the odds structure differs from T20 or ODI. Session-based betting and innings markets in Test cricket are popular among experienced bettors.
Football and Other Sports
Alongside cricket, 555bet also offers betting on football and several other sports. There are some fundamental differences between cricket and football betting.
Football has three possible outcomes — home win, away win or draw. This makes the odds structure different from T20 or ODI cricket, where a draw does not normally occur. Goal-based markets (such as total goals) are very popular in football, while run and wicket-based markets are more common in cricket.
Betting opportunities are also available on sports such as tennis, badminton and kabaddi, where the match winner market is the primary option.

Popular Betting Markets and Examples
Here is a brief example of each of the most commonly used markets in cricket betting at 555bet.
Match Winner
A bet on which team will win the match. Example: Team A vs Team B — you pick Team A, and if Team A wins, the bet is successful.
EasiestToss Winner
A bet placed before the match on which team will win the toss. This market is settled quickly, regardless of the match result.
Easy to accessTop Batsman
A market on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings. Pick one player from the team — if they score the highest, the bet wins.
Skill-basedTotal Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs in a match will be above or below a set number — you pick one of the two options. Example: whether total runs will exceed 320.
Statistics-basedMulti Bet
Bets from multiple matches combined into a single ticket — if all bets win, you receive a large combined return, but if even one loses, the entire bet is void.
High return potentialOver of First Wicket
A market on which over the first wicket will fall. Understanding the batting conditions and pitch can make this market more interesting.
Expert pickHow to Read Odds — Three Formats
Odds may look different across platforms, but they all express the same information in different ways. Three main formats are available at 555bet.
| Format | Team A Win (Example) | What does it mean? |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | Multiply by stake to get total return including stake |
| Fractional | 5/4 | ৳5 profit for every ৳4 staked |
| American | +125 | ৳125 profit on a ৳100 stake (plus means underdog) |
Example 1 — Underdog bet (Team A): Say Team A's odds are 2.25 decimal, 5/4 fractional and +125 American. A ৳500 bet returns a total of ৳1,125 if Team A wins — profit of ৳625 plus the original ৳500 stake. If Team A loses, you lose ৳500.
Example 2 — Favourite bet (Team B): Team B's odds are 1.25 decimal, 1/4 fractional and -400 American. American minus odds indicate how much you need to stake to win ৳100 in profit. A ৳500 bet on Team B returns a total of ৳625 if they win, with a profit of ৳125.
Multi Bet Example
Three bets — decimal odds of 1.50, 1.70 and 1.80 — combined give combined odds of 1.50 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.59 (approximately). A ৳100 stake returns ৳459 if all three win; if even one loses, the full ৳100 is lost.
Live In-Play Betting — Odds Shift When a Wicket Falls
LIVE Live betting is the ability to place bets in real time while a match is in progress. It is a completely different experience from pre-match betting.
In cricket, live odds can change after every ball. For example: if the batting side scores 50 runs in 5 overs without losing a wicket, their odds of winning will shorten (they become the favourite), while the opposition's odds will lengthen. A key wicket falling can reverse this picture entirely.
The powerplay overs, death overs and middle overs each have their own pace of odds movement. During the powerplay, the higher likelihood of big shots means odds in the scoring rate market shift frequently. In the death overs, a maiden or a six can both cause a significant swing in odds.
There is less time to make decisions during live betting, so it is good to understand the markets in advance. Treat betting as entertainment — play within your budget by following the responsible gaming guidelines.
Some Useful Tips for Cricket Betting
-
Bet with an understanding of the format. T20 and Test odds do not work the same way. In T20, 30 runs in a single over is possible; in Test cricket, a session can pass quietly. Each format has its own rhythm.
-
Know the market before placing a bet. The match winner market is the easiest for new bettors. If you are interested in multi bets or in-play markets, practice with small stakes first.
-
Set your budget in advance. Fix a specific amount for each session and avoid going beyond it. Placing large bets to recover losses is a common mistake.
-
Stay calm with live odds. Rushing to bet on rapidly changing odds does not always produce good results. Waiting a little may bring the odds back to a more favourable position.
-
Remember that betting is entertainment. Cricket betting is a way to enjoy the game — it should not be seen as a reliable source of income. Winning and losing are both part of it.
