1111bet 2 Cricket Betting — Complete Guide to Betting on BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup
How betting works across every cricket format, which markets are most popular, how to read odds, and how to enjoy live betting — all explained here in plain language.
Three formats, one passion
Each cricket format has its own character, and that character is reflected in the betting markets too. At 1111bet 2, you can bet across all three formats.
Twenty20
In a 20-over game, the situation can change with every ball. Popular leagues like BPL and IPL are played in this format, so more markets stay open and live odds move fast. T20 is the most fast-paced format for bettors who like making quick decisions.
One Day International
The 50-over format blends strategy with endurance. ODIs are played at ICC events and bilateral series. Top batsman, top wicket-taker, and over/under run markets are especially popular in this format.
Test Cricket
This five-day format is the toughest test in cricket. Because a draw is a possible result, three markets are available — home win, away win, and draw. Innings-based markets are also available, such as top run scorer in the first innings.
Variety of Competitions
Bangladeshi fans follow BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), IPL (Indian Premier League), the T20 World Cup, and Bangladesh Tigers international matches most closely. Beyond these, England's The Hundred, Australia's BBL, and Pakistan's PSL are also available. Each tournament has its own markets, such as series winner or tournament top run scorer.
Betting on football and other sports
While cricket is at the heart of this site, football is also very popular in Bangladesh. Betting on the English Premier League, UEFA Champions League, or the FIFA World Cup follows the same basic rules as cricket, though there are some differences.
Cricket has markets for runs, wickets, and overs; football has markets for number of goals, corner kicks, and cards. A cricket match runs for several hours or several days, so there are far more live betting opportunities. Football ends in 90 minutes, which gives its markets a different pace.

7 popular betting markets
Several types of markets are available for cricket betting at 1111bet 2. Each market works differently, so it is worth knowing how each one operates.
Match Winner
Bet on which team will win. In T20 and ODI there are two options (Team A or Team B); in Test there are three (win, loss, draw). Example: if you bet on Team A to win at odds of 1.80, any profit is added on top of your original stake.
Toss Result
Bet on which team wins the toss before the match starts. The probability is close to 50-50, so odds are usually around 1.90 or near that. The toss can play a significant role in the match result.
Top Batsman
Bet on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the full match. The team's batting order and pitch conditions are the key factors here.
Total Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether the total runs in a match or a specific innings will be over or under a set number. Example: the line is 160 runs; if you think the total will be more than 160, choose Over.
First Wicket to Fall
Bet on which bowler will take the first wicket or at what run total the first wicket will fall. In T20, early wickets are more likely, so this market tends to be very active.
Powerplay Runs
An over/under bet on how many runs will be scored in the first 6 overs (powerplay) of a T20 match. Pitch conditions and the batting order have the biggest influence on this market.
Multi Bet (Multiple Selections)
A multi bet requires you to predict the outcome of several matches at once, and you only win if every selection is correct — one wrong selection and the entire bet is lost. For example: if you pick three separate matches at odds of 1.40, 1.70, and 1.80, the combined odds are 1.40 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.28 (rounded), so a ৳100 bet that wins returns ৳428 — but all three selections must win; if even one loses, the full ৳100 is gone. See the 1111bet 2 Bet page for more details on multi bets.
Three odds formats made simple
Odds measure the potential return on a bet. At 1111bet 2, odds are shown in three formats: decimal, fractional, and American. All three express the same information in different ways.
Say Team A wins and the odds are shown across all three formats like this: Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150. If you place a ৳200 bet and win, you get back ৳500 (৳300 profit plus your ৳200 stake); if you lose, your ৳200 is gone.
Now look at an example for the favourite — Team B's odds to win: Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400. A negative American odds figure means how much you need to stake to win ৳100. Here, a ৳200 bet that wins returns ৳250 (৳50 profit).
Decimal odds are the easiest to calculate: stake × odds = total return. Decimal format is the best starting point for beginners.
| Format | Team A (Underdog) | Team B (Favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 1/4 |
| American | +150 | −400 |
| Return on ৳200 bet | ৳500 | ৳250 |
| Profit | ৳300 | ৳50 |
The figures above are examples only — they are not live odds or a guarantee of any outcome.
Odds change every moment while the game is on
Live or in-play betting is one of the most engaging aspects of cricket betting. Odds update instantly when a wicket falls, a big six is hit, or the powerplay ends.
Example: at the start of a match, Team A and Team B are roughly equal. But if Team A loses 3 wickets in the first 5 overs, the odds on Team B winning will drop sharply — meaning Team B becomes a much stronger favourite. Recognising these moments opens up opportunities to enter new markets.
Decisions in live betting must be made quickly, because markets can close at any time. Having a good understanding of the match beforehand makes it easier to move to the right market at the right moment.
Some practical tips before you start betting
Stick to a budget
Decide in advance how much you will bet each week and stay within that limit. Betting is entertainment — it is not a way to earn income.
Focus on one market
For beginners, starting with the match winner market is a good idea. Rather than spreading bets across many markets at once, build familiarity with one market first.
No rushing in live betting
Even though in-play betting moves fast, avoid making decisions based on emotion. Think through each bet with a clear head.
Know the pitch and weather
The pitch type (spin-friendly or pace-friendly) and the weather on match day can change the course of a game, so check this information before placing a bet.
Responsible betting
Avoid the urge to place bigger bets to recover losses. Reading the responsible gaming guidelines will help you keep yourself protected.
Betting on mobile is convenient
The 1111bet 2 app is available on Android and iOS, letting you bet from anywhere while a match is on. The app is available through official channels.
