222bet Cricket Betting — Bet on Every Match from BPL to T20 World Cup
222bet offers a wide range of betting markets for cricket fans in Bangladesh. From match winner to live in-play — everything in one place.
Three cricket formats and major tournaments
In Bangladesh, cricket is more than a sport — it is a passion. From the lanes of Dhaka to the television screen, every match of the Tigers brings people together. 222bet honours that passion by offering betting markets across all three formats.
T20
Twenty-over innings, fast-paced batting and dramatic shifts every over — T20 matches have the most active betting markets. Popular leagues like BPL and IPL are played in this format. Every Bangladesh Tigers match at the T20 World Cup draws special interest.
Most MarketsODI
This fifty-over format tests a team's planning and patience. In ICC events, ODI match betting sees strong interest in toss markets, partnerships and individual performance markets. Alongside BPL, the ICC Champions Trophy also draws significant attention.
ICC EventsTest
Five-day Test cricket moves at a slower pace, but there are far more betting opportunities across a series. With three possible outcomes — series winner, match draw or match winner — the markets work differently. Experienced bettors tend to do more research before placing bets in this format.
Series Betting
Football and other sports
After cricket, football holds the biggest place in Bangladesh. European league matches have a large following here, which is why 222bet also offers a wide range of football markets. Football has three possible match outcomes — home win, draw and away win — which differs from cricket's two-way markets. Betting markets are also available for tennis, badminton and kabaddi.
Away from cricket, many people enjoy playing slots games for a completely different experience based on real-money spins. Sports betting and casino — both are available on one platform at 222bet.
Popular betting markets — how each one works
Each cricket match offers many different markets to bet on. Below is a simple explanation of the seven most common ones.
Match Winner
You bet on which of the two teams will win. In T20 or ODI, there are usually two options; in Test cricket there are three (Team A, Team B or Draw).
SimplestToss Betting
You can bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. This is entirely down to chance, as no statistics can reliably predict the outcome.
Quick ResultTop Batsman
You bet on which batter will score the most runs in a team's innings. Selections are usually made from the team's regular openers or middle-order batters.
Team-BasedTotal Runs Over/Under
You bet on whether the total runs scored in a set number of overs will be above (over) or below (under) a given number. The focus here is the full innings score, not any specific team.
Score-BasedMulti Bet
Multiple match outcomes are combined into a single bet. If all selections are correct the return is much higher, but if any one of them fails the entire bet is lost.
Combined OddsNext Wicket / Boundary
In in-play betting, you can bet on small moments — such as whether there will be a four or six in the next over, or when the next wicket will fall.
Live MarketDecimal, Fractional and American Odds — real examples
Odds are written in three different formats. The numbers look different but all three represent the same value. The example below shows what you receive on a ৳200 bet if Team A wins.
| Format | Value | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Stake × 3.00 = total return. On a ৳200 bet you receive ৳600 in total (profit of ৳400). |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked. On a ৳200 bet, profit is ৳400, total return ৳600. |
| American | +200 | A positive number shows how much profit you make on ৳100. On a ৳200 bet, profit is ৳400, total return ৳600. |
Favourite's odds — Team B is more likely to win:
Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400 (a minus figure shows how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit). On a ৳200 bet, a win returns ৳250 total — a profit of just ৳50. Favourites have lower odds, so the profit is lower.
The numbers in the examples are only for explaining the formats — they are not live odds or a guarantee for any specific match.
Multi Bet Example
Three selections across three separate matches — decimal odds of 1.40, 1.60 and 1.90 respectively. The combined odds would be 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.90 = 4.26 (approximately).
On a ৳100 bet, if all selections win you receive ৳426. But if any one of them loses, the full ৳100 is gone.
Remember: betting is for entertainment. No one can guarantee a win.
In-play betting while the match is on
As well as pre-match betting, you can also place bets after the match has started — this is in-play or live betting. When a wicket falls, a big boundary is hit or the powerplay score is low, odds change in an instant. It is that dynamic shift in odds that makes in-play betting different.
For example — if Team A loses 3 wickets for just 22 runs in the first five overs, the odds on Team B winning will drop noticeably and Team A's odds will rise. When a new batter comes in, the situation shifts again. Each of these moments creates a new betting opportunity.
In in-play betting you can place bets on the next wicket, total runs in the next over, or the final innings score. Many bettors prefer this style because it is easy to do from the mobile app.
Some practical advice before you start
- Set a budget: Decide how much you will bet on each match before you start. Betting is for entertainment — if you lose, it is better not to chase losses with bigger bets.
- Focus on one market: For beginners, starting with the match winner market is straightforward. Betting across many markets at once can get confusing.
- Understand the format: In T20, five boundaries in a single over is normal. ODI and Test cricket move at a different pace. Understanding the format makes it easier to understand the market.
- Be careful with multi bets: Multi bets may show a higher return, but the risk is also higher. If one selection fails, the entire bet is lost.
- Play responsibly: When betting starts to feel like pressure rather than enjoyment, it is time to take a break. Reading the responsible gaming guidelines will help you learn how to set limits.
- Watch live scores: Real-time scores are important for making decisions in in-play betting. Live updates are available on the 222bet platform.
How does a betting exchange work?
In regular betting you bet against the platform. In exchange betting you bet against other bettors. For example — BACKing Team A (odds 2.50, ৳1,000): if Team A wins you profit ৳1,500; if they do not win you lose ৳1,000.
LAYing Team A (backer's stake ৳1,000): if Team A does not win you profit ৳1,000; if they win you pay out ৳1,500.
Figures are before commission is deducted. Numbers are for illustration only.
