pk 11 Cricket Betting — Top Sports Markets from BPL to the T20 World Cup
Bet on every cricket format — from Match Winner, Toss, and Top Batsman to real-time live markets. All markets for Bangladesh's favourite sport, in one place.
Cricket's Three Formats and How Betting Differs
T20, ODI, and Test — each format has its own pace, so the types of bets available change too.
T20 is the fastest format — the game is over in 20 overs, with a result in just a few hours. The most betting markets are available in this format because the situation changes quickly after every over. In Bangladesh, BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and international T20 matches are the most popular with fans.
ODI, or one-day cricket, is played over 50 overs. The pace of the game is a little slower, but the situation can turn around mid-match — especially due to rain or a fall of wickets. IPL and various international series are also regularly held in the ODI format.
Test cricket is a five-day game. A draw is a possible result here, so there are three main markets: Team A wins, Team B wins, or Draw. Due to the long duration, weather and pitch conditions have a major effect on betting.
Popular Cricket Markets
Many types of bets can be placed on a single match — not just on the result, but also on innings-based and over-based markets.
Match Winner
Which team will win the match — Team A or Team B? In T20 and ODI there are two options; in Test there are three (Team A, Team B, Draw). The simplest and most widely played market.
Toss Winner
You can bet on the toss result before the match starts. The toss happens independently — it has no direct connection to a team's form or pitch conditions.
Top Batsman
A bet on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match. The team's batting order and the type of pitch are key factors to consider here.
Total Runs Over / Under
A bet on whether the total runs scored in a given over or a full innings will be more or less than a set number — bets are placed above or below the handicap line.
Top Bowler
Which bowler will take the most wickets in the match? Pace or spin — the bowler's advantage based on the pitch is reflected in the market.
Multi Bet
Combine the results of several matches into one bet — for example, placing the winners of three separate matches in a single multi bet pays out only if all of them are correct. If even one is wrong, the entire stake is lost.
Football and Other Sports
Alongside cricket, pk 11 offers the opportunity to bet on football and several other sports. In football, a draw is a common result, so there are three markets: Team A, Team B, or Draw. In addition, handicap and total goals (over/under) markets are very popular in football.
When betting on cricket, overs and wickets are the two factors that change odds the most. In football, odds shift quickly after a goal or when a player receives a red card. Understanding this difference is especially useful in live betting.
Betting is always for entertainment — no strategy should ever be seen as a guaranteed path to profit. Read the responsible gaming guidelines to learn how to stay within your limits and enjoy the experience.
How to Read Odds
The same odds price is written in three different formats — use the examples below to understand.
Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200.
If the bet wins, you get back ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 stake). If the bet loses, ৳200 is gone.
Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200.
American minus odds show how much you need to stake for ৳100 in profit. On a ৳200 stake you get back ৳300 (৳100 profit).
Decimal Odds Are the Easiest
Most Bangladeshi platforms show decimal format as the default. The calculation is straightforward: odds × stake amount = total return. In the example, 3.00 × ৳200 = ৳600.
Fractional Odds
2/1 means ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked — plus your original stake back.
American Odds
A + sign means how much profit you make on a ৳100 stake; a − sign means how much you need to stake for ৳100 in profit. This format is less commonly used in cricket betting.
Live In-Play Betting
Live betting lets you place bets while the match is in progress. Odds update instantly after every wicket and at the end of every over. If one team loses several wickets in a row, the other team's odds of winning drop quickly.
Say Team A is batting and 3 wickets have fallen in the first 6 overs — in this situation, Team B's Match Winner odds will shorten because the bowling side's chances of winning have increased. In the death overs (last 4–5 overs), the situation can change with every ball.
In live betting you have less time to make decisions, so it is wise to set your budget limit in advance. You can find more information on pk 11's FAQ page.
- Odds take a big hit after a wicket in the powerplay.
- If a rain break or the Duckworth-Lewis method applies, the market may be temporarily suspended.
- The minimum bet in live markets is the same as in regular markets — there is no extra limit.
A Few Things to Keep in Mind Before You Start Betting
Betting is part of the entertainment — keeping these points in mind will make the experience enjoyable.
- Before the match starts, be aware of both teams' recent form and the pitch conditions.
- In T20, winning the toss can matter depending on the pitch — on a slow pitch, the team that wins the toss usually chooses to field.
- In a multi bet, if every selection is not correct the entire stake is lost — more selections increase the potential return but also the risk.
- Never bet beyond your weekly budget — chasing losses by increasing your stake is not a good idea.
- Odds change very quickly in live betting, so it is better not to bet on impulse without deciding in advance.
- Not just betting — you can also enjoy Slots and pk 11 Casino with the same account on pk 11.
