Cricket Betting at ek333 — the best betting experience in T20, ODI and Test
Bet on every match in BPL, IPL and international cricket across multiple markets on ek333, Bangladesh's popular online platform. Understand the odds, know the markets and enjoy the experience.
Three cricket formats — three kinds of betting opportunities
Cricket is played in three main formats, and at ek333 you can bet on each of them.
T20: The fastest format — completed in 20 overs, and the result can change in an instant. Tournaments like BPL or IPL offer countless betting opportunities in this format. In T20, a big over or a quick wicket can shift the entire momentum of the match, which makes it particularly attractive for bettors.
ODI: Fifty-over One Day International matches. By the midpoint of the match you can get a fairly good sense of which side is ahead based on the score. More markets are available than in T20 — particularly total runs and top batsman markets. In major ODI tournaments like the ICC World Cup or Asia Cup, the scope for betting is even broader.
Test Match: The long five-day format. Since a draw is possible, there are three-outcome markets here. Test betting is a different kind of fun for patient bettors — odds shift session by session.
Bangladesh Tigers fans naturally follow BPL and international matches most closely. However, football and other sports are also available on ek333 — that is covered later.
Betting on football and other sports beyond cricket
Although cricket is the most popular section on ek333, the platform also offers betting on football and several other sports.
Football has various markets including match winner, both teams to score, and goalscorer. The difference from cricket is that a draw is a common result in football, so separate odds are set for three outcomes. A draw is also possible in Test cricket — but T20 or ODI markets generally have only two-outcome markets.
The rules for betting on badminton, tennis or other sports are broadly the same — though the depth of markets and variety of odds vary by sport. Just as cricket has specialist markets like top wicket-taker or partnership runs, football has markets like goals in a specific minute — each sport's own characteristics are reflected in its betting markets.
Those interested in card games and casino can enjoy live casino and slots at ek333 Casino — that is a completely separate section.
The 5 popular markets in cricket betting
Each market has its own characteristics. Read the explanations below to understand which one to bet on.
Match Winner
Which team will win — this is the simplest market. In T20 or ODI there are two odds for two teams; in Test there are three. Example: pick Team A or Team B — if the result at the end of the match goes your way, you win.
Toss Winner
Which team will win the toss before the match starts — this is a separate market. The odds for both teams are usually about equal, since the toss is a 50/50 event. It is completely separate from the match result.
Top Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in the match. This can be within a team or across the entire match. The best batsmen in a side usually have lower odds here; unexpected players carry higher odds.
Total Runs Over/Under
Whether the total runs in the match will be above or below a set number — that is what you bet on. Example: if you bet on total runs over 300, you win if the total is 301 or more, and lose if it is 300 or fewer. The rate of scoring matters more here than wickets.
Multi Bet
Multiple bets across different markets are combined into one. If all bets are correct, the odds multiply to give a larger return — but if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. Example: if you combine three match winners in a multi bet, all three must be correct.
Wickets and Partnerships
Which over the first wicket will fall in, or how many runs a specific partnership will produce — these specialist markets add variety to cricket betting. In T20 these markets are also available in live betting.
Decimal, Fractional and American — how to understand three types of odds
Three formats for writing odds are seen on online betting platforms. Before placing a bet on ek333, it is worth knowing all three formats.
Example 1 — Team A wins (৳500 bet)
If you win, you receive ৳1,250 (৳750 profit + original ৳500 stake); if you lose, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B wins (favourite, ৳500 bet)
On a ৳500 bet the return will be ৳750 (৳250 profit); a favourite gives less profit but carries lower risk.
Decimal odds of 2.50 means you get 2.5 times your stake. Fractional 3/2 means ৳3 profit for every ৳2. American +150 means ৳150 profit on a ৳100 stake.
Live In-Play — odds shift when a wicket falls
The most dynamic aspect of cricket betting is in-play or live betting. At ek333 you can bet even after the match has started, and the odds update with every ball.
For example: if Team A has scored only 50 runs and lost 3 wickets in the first 10 overs, Team A's odds of winning will lengthen at that point because their position is weak. Conversely, Team B's odds will shorten. These changes happen in real time.
A special opportunity in live betting is short-term markets like "next wicket" or "runs in this over". A big sixth or fourteenth over can shift the entire course of the match — and you can see the change in odds happen right in front of you at that moment.
In-play betting demands quick decisions. It is therefore important to follow responsible gaming guidelines at all times — set a budget and stick to it rather than placing large bets out of impulse.
- When a wicket falls, the bowling side's odds shorten and the batting side's lengthen — always keep this in mind.
- Run rates are higher in powerplay overs — this has an effect on total runs markets.
- In-play markets can close quickly — make your decision at the right time.
Betting on multiple markets at once — how multi bet works
In a multi bet the odds of several bets are multiplied together, so the potential return can be much higher. The catch is that if any single bet is wrong, the entire stake is lost.
Multi bet example — three selections
Combined odds: 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.90 = 3.99 (approximately)
On a ৳100 bet, if all three are correct the return is ৳399; if even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
Multi bets are good for entertainment, but keep in mind — the more selections you add, the lower the chance that all of them will be correct. Always treat betting as entertainment, not a source of income.
Reading the FAQ before placing a bet on ek333 will answer many questions about the platform.
Some practical tips for cricket betting
Betting is for entertainment — that is the principle behind the points below.
- Set a budget: Decide on a fixed amount for each match or session in advance and try not to go beyond it.
- Understand the Market: Before going into multi-bets, practice understanding markets one at a time — start with match winner.
- Know the Format: In T20, quick wicket falls can shift a team's odds dramatically; in ODI, changes happen more gradually.
- Take a Break: If you lose bets one after another, stop — emotional decisions can lead to big losses.
- Read the Rules: Before placing a bet, check the Terms & Conditions once — it is good to know the wagering requirements and cashout rules in particular.
- Easy on Mobile: ek333 is available on both Android and iOS, so you can place bets from anywhere during a live match.
