Cricket Betting on bdtk3 — Odds for Every Match from BPL to T20 World Cup in One Place
Bet on Bangladesh's most popular sport at bdtk3. Live odds, multi bets and top batsman markets are available across all three formats — T20, ODI and Test.
The Three Formats of Cricket and Major Tournaments
The first thing to understand in cricket betting is the difference between formats — because the pace of play, betting opportunities and movement of odds are completely different across T20, ODI and Test matches.
T20: The fastest format. With only twenty overs in a match, odds shift on every ball. The highest betting action on bdtk3 is seen in T20 matches for BPL and IPL.
ODI: Teams play strategically across fifty overs, so betting on total runs or top batsman markets is more common.
Test: In a five-day match, a draw is a possible result. T20 and ODI have no draws, so markets there cover only two outcomes.
Among Bangladesh fans, BPL and the T20 World Cup are the most popular. IPL draws equal interest. Betting markets on bdtk3 are most active during these tournaments.
Football and Other Sports — How They Differ from Cricket
Besides cricket, you can bet on football and other sports at bdtk3. However, the strategy and markets are different.
A football match is only 90 minutes and has three possible results — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw. In cricket, T20 and ODI have no draws, so odds are split directly between two teams. In Test, a draw is possible, so there are three odds.
In football, goal line, handicap and cards markets are popular. In cricket, there are markets like wickets, runs, over-by-over score and powerplay score that do not exist in football.
Cricket fans who are also interested in casino games can try the live casino at bdtk3 Casino — sports and casino are both available under the same account.
6 Popular Betting Markets in Cricket
Each market works differently and has its own advantages. Below is a brief introduction to each market.
Match Winner
The simplest market — bet on which team will win the match. If Team A's odds are 1.80 and Team B's odds are 2.00, a bet on Team B returns ৳2,000 on a ৳1,000 stake (৳1,000 profit) if Team B wins.
SimpleToss Winner
Which team will win the toss — this is unrelated to the match result, it is purely on the toss. Odds for both teams are usually close to equal. A simple starting point for new bettors.
For BeginnersTop Batsman
Bet on which batsman in a team will score the most runs. The batter's recent form and pitch conditions matter here. Odds shift considerably during an innings.
Requires SkillTotal Runs Over/Under
Whether total runs scored in a full match or a single innings will be over or under a set number. Example: if the line for the first innings is 160 runs, the over wins if the team scores more than 160.
PopularMulti Bet
Combining multiple matches or markets into a single bet. If three selections have odds of 1.50, 1.80 and 1.90, the combined odds are 5.13, so a ৳100 bet returns ৳513 — but all selections must win.
High ReturnPowerplay Score
How many runs will be scored in the first 6 overs — this market is especially popular in T20. Runs tend to be higher during the powerplay due to fielding restrictions, making odds harder to set.
T20 SpecialUnderstanding Three Ways of Writing Odds
The same odds can be written in three ways — decimal, fractional and American. bdtk3 generally uses decimal, but knowing all three formats makes betting easier.
| Format | Price for Team A to Win | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Total return = stake × odds. ৳500 × 3.00 = ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake returned). |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked. ৳500 bet returns ৳1,000 profit, total ৳1,500. |
| American (+) | +200 | Plus means how much profit on a ৳100 bet. +200 means ৳200 profit on ৳100, total ৳300. |
Example 1 — Underdog Odds
Team A to win — the same value in all three formats: decimal 3.00 = fractional 2/1 = American +200. A ৳500 bet returns a total of ৳1,500 if you win (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake); if you lose, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — Favourite Odds
Team B is the favourite — decimal 1.80 = fractional 4/5 = American −125. American minus odds mean how much you need to stake to win ৳100. −125 means ৳125 staked returns ৳100 profit. A ৳500 bet returns a total of ৳900 (৳400 profit).
On the bdtk3 Bet platform at bdtk3, decimal format is the default, so multiplying stake × odds gives the total return. For more on betting rules, read the Terms and Conditions page.
Live In-Play Betting — Odds Change the Moment a Wicket Falls
The most engaging betting feature in cricket is live in-play. You can place bets after the match has started, and odds refresh after every ball.
What Happens When a Wicket Falls
When an important wicket falls, the batting team's odds rise immediately — meaning their chance of winning is seen as lower, so odds lengthen. The bowling team's odds shorten. These moments create new opportunities in live betting.
Odds Update After Each Over
The required run rate changes after each over. If the batting team is scoring faster than needed, their odds shorten.
Cash Out Option
During the match, a partial or full cash out option is available at certain points, helping bettors lock in a profit or reduce a loss.
Useful Tips for Cricket Betting
Cricket betting is entertainment. These tips help keep the betting experience planned and enjoyable.
Start with One Format
T20, ODI and Test each have different rules. Get comfortable with one before moving to another. Starting with BPL or IPL makes it easier to understand the familiar teams.
Keep to a Budget
Decide how much you will spend before each betting session. Betting beyond your budget takes the enjoyment out of it. The Responsible Gaming page has more details on this.
Avoid Rushing in Live Betting
Because live odds change quickly, there is a temptation to make snap decisions. Take time to fully understand the odds before placing each bet.
Try Multi Bets with Small Stakes
In a multi bet, if one selection loses the entire bet is lost. It is wise to start with small amounts rather than large stakes on multi bets.
