royal baji Cricket Betting — Bet on T20, ODI and Test Matches
royal baji brings a complete sports betting platform for cricket fans in Bangladesh. From BPL to the T20 World Cup, international ODIs to Test series — every format is covered with detailed markets, straightforward odds, and live in-play betting.
Three Cricket Formats and Favourite Competitions
The greatest appeal of cricket betting is its variety. Three distinct formats — T20, ODI, and Test — each offer a completely different playing experience, and the type of bets available differs accordingly.
T20: The fastest format. Each team has just 20 overs, so runs come quickly and wickets fall frequently. BPL, IPL, and the T20 World Cup are the most popular competitions in this format. BPL matches and the Tigers' T20 games are always a particular favourite among fans in Bangladesh.
ODI: 50 overs per team. The pace of the game is somewhere in the middle — sustained pressure builds up, but there is always a chance for a sudden shift. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series generate a great deal of interest in ODI betting.
Test: A five-day contest. Strategy matters most here, and the momentum of the match can change at any time. Test betting markets also include the possibility of a draw, which does not exist in T20 or ODI — that is a key difference.
Football and Other Sports — A Comparison with Cricket
Alongside cricket, royal baji also offers betting on football, tennis, badminton, and many other sports. In the Bangladesh market, however, cricket and football attract the most betting activity.
A football match generally has three possible outcomes — home win, away win, or draw (the 1X2 market). In cricket, T20 and ODI formats have no draw; only Test matches do. In football, because the goal margin is small, either team can turn the match around at any point, much like how a cricket match can swing in the final overs.
Tennis and badminton have separate markets for sets and games, similar to cricket's wicket-based or over-based markets. Across all sports, one principle remains the same — betting is for entertainment, and responsible play is important. Read our guide to responsible gaming to learn more.
Football vs Cricket
Football has the 1X2 market; cricket has only the match winner (except in Tests) — the betting structure of the two sports is different.
Popular Betting Markets — How Each One Works
Each of the markets below is actively available on royal baji. In every example, Team A and Team B are hypothetical teams used for illustration only.
Match Winner
The simplest market. You decide which of Team A or Team B will win. For example: if you bet on Team A to win and Team A wins, you receive a return based on the odds.
Toss Winner
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. Because the probability is roughly equal for both sides, the odds are usually close for both options. This is a standalone market.
Top Batsman
A bet on which batsman will score the most runs in the match. Wagers are placed based on each team's full batting lineup. A team's openers generally have lower odds in this market.
Total Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs scored in the entire match will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. For example: if you choose over on 150 total runs, you win if 151 or more runs are scored.
Multi-Bet (Multiple Selections)
Adding multiple matches or events to a single bet multiplies the total odds together, increasing the potential return. However, if any one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost — so a multi-bet carries greater risk.
Innings Score
A bet on what a team's score will be at a specific point — such as the powerplay score or the total runs at the end of the first innings. This market is very popular in T20.
Wicket Markets
Bets on which over the first wicket will fall, or the total number of wickets to fall in the match. Bowlers' form and pitch conditions play a significant role in these markets.
A Simple Guide to Odds — Three Formats
royal baji displays odds in three formats: Decimal, Fractional, and American. All three express the same information in different ways.
| Format | If Team A wins (Example 1) | If Team B wins (Example 2) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | 4/5 |
| American | +200 | -125 |
Example 1 — Bet on Team A to win, stake ৳1,000: Decimal 3.00, Fractional 2/1, American +200. If Team A wins, the return is ৳3,000 (৳2,000 profit + original ৳1,000 stake). If Team A loses, the ৳1,000 stake is lost.
Example 2 — Bet on Team B to win (favourite), stake ৳1,000: Decimal 1.80, Fractional 4/5, American -125. -125 means you need to stake ৳125 to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳1,000 stake, if Team B wins, the return is ৳1,800 (৳800 profit).
The decimal format is the most straightforward — it shows the total return amount directly. For newcomers, starting with this format is the best approach.
Live In-Play Betting — Placing Bets During the Match
LIVE
In-play betting means placing bets while a match is in progress. In cricket, this is particularly significant because the situation can change every over — or even every ball.
When a wicket falls, the bowling side's odds shorten and the batting side's odds lengthen — because the batting team's chances of winning have decreased. Conversely, if runs come quickly during the powerplay, the batting team's odds improve.
If the required run rate in the final five overs is high, the fielding side's odds will gradually shorten. This constant movement is what makes live betting a different experience.
Keep in mind, though, that odds move very quickly in live betting. The right approach is to stay focused and set a budget before you play.
A Few Things to Consider Before You Start Betting
- Understand the format first: Knowing the rules and typical score ranges for T20, ODI, and Test makes it easier to choose the right market. Start with the format you follow most closely.
- Focus on one market: Rather than betting across many markets at once, start with straightforward ones like match winner or total runs.
- Be careful with multi-bets: Adding more selections increases the odds, but one wrong pick means losing everything. If you are new to it, keep your multi-bet stakes small.
- Set a budget: Decide how much you are willing to spend before each session. This is entertainment, so chasing losses with extra bets is not the right approach.
- Do not rush in live betting: Odds move fast, but you do not need to make a decision after every ball. Analyse the situation with a clear head.
- Read the rules: Different markets may have different rules. Reading the terms and conditions on royal baji will give you a clear understanding of how betting works.
