3bd games Cricket Betting — Bet on All Formats from T20 to Test
Bet on every moment of BPL, IPL and international cricket. Markets built for the Bangladeshi audience, full support in Bengali, and direct transactions via bKash and Nagad.
Cricket's Three Formats and Major Tournaments
T20
With 20 overs per side, this is the fastest format. BPL and IPL are played in this format, and every Bangladesh Tigers match at the T20 World Cup draws huge interest across the country. Odds change quickly, making live betting especially engaging here.
One Day International
The 50-over format shows a clearer blend of strategy and patience. There are more betting opportunities in the ICC ODI World Cup and bilateral series, as the pace of the match shifts gradually and markets take a new shape with each innings.
Test Cricket
In a five-day Test match, a draw is possible, so there are three markets — Team A win, Team B win, or draw. Pitch conditions, weather and pitch reports play an important role in betting. Odds change slowly over the longer duration.
BPL, IPL and International Matches
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is the most anticipated tournament of the year for local cricket fans. Interest in every match runs high, and multiple markets are available for BPL matches at 3bd games.
The world's top players take part in IPL, so the odds situation differs from match to match. Betting opportunities are also available in the T20 World Cup and Asia Cup — markets covering Bangladesh Tigers' performance in ICC international series are included.
Before you start betting at 3bd games, it is worth reading the Terms and Conditions once — especially helpful for new users.
Betting on Football and Other Sports
Football betting is also popular at 3bd games alongside cricket. In football, three outcomes are possible — home team win, draw, and away team win. Because football has a fixed duration (90 minutes), the odds structure is somewhat different from cricket. Goal scorer, total goals, and half-time/full-time markets do not exist in cricket.
In cricket, run rates, wickets and over-by-over markets reshape things every moment. Understanding this difference makes betting on the two sports feel distinct. For more variety at 3bd games, you can check out the Monster Fight Betting Market.
In other sports — such as kabaddi or badminton — the number of markets is generally smaller, but live odds are available for major tournaments.
- A draw is possible in football; there is no draw in T20 or ODI
- In cricket, odds shift instantly when a wicket falls
- Football has a 90-minute structure; cricket is over-based
- Test cricket has a draw market, similar to football
Popular Cricket Markets — How Each One Works
Match Winner
The simplest market — which team will win the match? In T20 and ODI there are two options. Example: Team A and Team B are playing — if you bet on Team A, you get a return only if Team A wins.
Toss Betting
Before the match begins, you can bet on which team will win the toss. With two possible outcomes, odds are usually nearly equal. Example: Team A or Team B — bet on either one.
Top Batsman
Who will score the most runs in a specific innings or across the whole match? This market has odds against each batter in the team. With more players in the mix, odds here tend to be comparatively higher.
Total Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether runs scored will be more (over) or less (under) than a set number. Example: will the first innings produce more than 160 runs — choose over or under.
Multi Bet
Betting on multiple matches or markets together means a much larger return if all selections are correct. Example: bets on three separate matches — if any one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. See the odds section below for more detail.
Innings Runs Handicap
To narrow the gap between two teams, one team is given a run advantage or deficit in advance. After the handicap is applied, whichever team has the higher score wins the bet.
Top Bowler Market
Who will take the most wickets in the match? Similar to the top batsman market, odds are set against each bowler in the team. When a prominent spinner or pacer is playing, this market draws particular interest.
Odds Are Written Three Ways — How to Read Them
The odds for a bet are written in three different formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same information; only the way they are presented differs.
| Format | Team A Win (Example 1) | Team B Win (Example 2) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 1/4 |
| American | +125 | -400 |
Example 1 — Team A win, ৳1,000 bet: Decimal odds of 2.25 mean the total return is ৳2.25 for every ৳1 bet. On a ৳1,000 bet, the total return is ৳2,250 (৳1,250 profit + ৳1,000 original stake). If Team A loses, the full ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B win (favourite), ৳1,000 bet: Decimal odds of 1.25 mean a return of ৳1,250 (৳250 profit). American odds of -400 mean you need to bet ৳400 to win ৳100 — which is why these are called minus odds.
Multi bet example: Decimal odds of 1.40, 1.50 and 1.80 across three matches. Combined odds = 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.80 = 3.78 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳378 if all three are correct — but if any one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
- Decimal odds are the simplest — multiply the number by your stake to get the total return.
- Fractional is the British format — 5/4 means you get 5 for every 4 you put in (profit only), and the original stake is returned separately.
- American plus (+) means how much profit on a 100 bet; minus (-) means how much you need to bet to make 100 profit.
- All three formats express the same actual probability — none is bigger or smaller than another.
Live Betting — How Odds Change When a Wicket Falls
Once a match begins, odds are recalculated with every ball. Live betting in cricket has a distinct pull — because sometimes a single wicket completely changes the picture of the match.
Say Team A has scored 120 runs in 15 overs with 6 wickets in hand. At that moment, Team A's win odds will shorten because they are ahead. But if two wickets fall in quick succession, the odds can rise sharply. This constant movement is what keeps live betting dynamic.
The run rate at the end of the powerplay, bowling conditions in the death overs, and the Duckworth-Lewis method (in rain-affected matches) — all of these influence live markets. Knowing a bit about what you are betting on makes the experience more enjoyable.
Live betting is available on the 3bd games app — through the 3bd games App, you can easily view live match odds and place bets from your mobile.
Some Useful Points on Betting
- Understand one market well — start by focusing on match winner or total runs markets. Spreading bets across too many markets at once reduces focus.
- Set a budget in advance — decide how much you will bet before each match and keep to it. Resist the temptation to raise your limit after a win.
- Check the team's recent form — player changes, pitch type or the toss result often change the shape of a match at the last moment.
- Be careful with multi bets — the combined odds may look large, but the risk is also higher. If one out of three is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
- Do not rush in live betting — odds change fast, but take time to read the situation rather than making a decision immediately after every wicket.
- Betting is entertainment, not a business — increasing your bets to recover losses creates problems. Losing does not guarantee a win next time.
