Reading odds
We show decimal odds. The number is what you get back for every 1 taka staked, including your stake. A bet of ৳100 at 1.80 returns ৳180 if it wins: your ৳100 back plus ৳80 profit.
Odds also tell you the chance the price implies: implied probability = 1 ÷ odds. Odds of 1.80 imply 1 ÷ 1.80 = 55.6%. If you believe a team’s real chance is higher than the price implies, the bet has value; if lower, it does not.
| Decimal odds | Implied probability | ৳100 bet returns |
|---|---|---|
| 1.25 | 80% | ৳125 |
| 1.50 | 66.7% | ৳150 |
| 2.00 | 50% | ৳200 |
| 3.00 | 33.3% | ৳300 |
| 5.00 | 20% | ৳500 |
The margin. Add up the implied probabilities of every outcome and you get more than 100%. Two teams both priced at 1.90 imply 52.6% each, 105.2% in total; the extra 5.2% is the margin. Lower totals mean fairer prices, which is one reason experienced bettors like exchanges.
How the cricket format changes the bet
| Format | Length | What it means for betting |
|---|---|---|
| Test | Up to 5 days, two innings each | The draw is a real outcome. Pitch wear, weather and declarations matter; prices swing session by session. |
| ODI | 50 overs a side | Rain can bring the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern (DLS) method into play and change targets. Middle-overs run rates decide many games. |
| T20 | 20 overs a side | High variance: one big over can flip the match. The 6-over powerplay and death overs move prices most. |
In short formats, favourites lose more often than their prices suggest to casual fans, because a single partnership or over can decide the game. In Tests, conditions and the toss carry more weight: check the pitch report and the forecast before you bet.
Back and lay on the Crickex exchange
The Crickex exchange lets you bet against other players instead of only against a bookmaker. Back means betting that something will happen. Lay means betting that it will not: you take the bookmaker’s side, and your risk is the backer’s potential profit.
Lay liability = lay stake × (odds − 1). Lay Bangladesh at 2.50 for ৳1,000 and your liability is ৳1,000 × 1.50 = ৳1,500. If Bangladesh lose, you win the ৳1,000 stake (less commission). If they win, you pay out ৳1,500.
The exchange takes a small commission on net winnings in a market.
Bookmaker and Fancy markets
Alongside the exchange’s Match Odds, Crickex offers two market types that cricket bettors in South Asia know well.
Bookmaker markets give fixed prices on the match winner, set by the bookmaker rather than matched between players. Prices are often shown as a rate, for example 45, meaning ৳45 profit for every ৳100 staked. They are quick to use and usually carry no exchange commission.
Fancy markets are about what happens inside the match: runs in the first 6 or 10 overs, a batter’s score, the fall of a wicket. Each line has a Yes side (the number will be reached) and a No side (it will not), each with its own rate. Fancy lines move ball by ball, which makes them the busiest markets during live play. The exact settlement rule for each line is shown in the market.
Common cricket markets
| Market | What you are betting on | Worth knowing |
|---|---|---|
| Match Odds / winner | Which team wins the match | Check the rules for ties, no-results and rain-shortened games |
| Toss winner | Which captain wins the coin toss | A pure 50/50 event, so only the margin separates the prices |
| Session runs (Fancy) | Runs in a set number of overs | The most active live market; lines move every ball |
| Top batter or bowler | Which player scores most runs or takes most wickets for a team | Usually settled on the named team only; check what happens if a player does not bat |
| Total runs | Whether a team or innings goes over or under a line | Lines shift quickly once the innings starts |
| Method of dismissal | How the next wicket falls | Higher odds, much harder to predict |
Settlement rules decide what happens when a match is shortened or abandoned, so read them before betting on rain-affected fixtures.
Competitions to bet on
Cricket betting follows the calendar. The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) usually runs early in the year; the IPL fills the spring; the Pakistan Super League, Caribbean Premier League and other franchise events spread across the season; and ICC events such as the T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy, plus the Asia Cup, bring the biggest markets of all. Bilateral Test, ODI and T20I series run year-round.
Markets open as soon as fixtures are confirmed, often days before the toss, so you can get in early when you have a view on team news or conditions.
Other sports and sportsbooks
Cricket is the headline, but Crickex covers far more through our own cricket book and our sportsbook partners: football, tennis, basketball and more, plus a dedicated horse racing book.

Betting like a professional
- Set a bankroll for the month and stake a small, fixed share of it on each bet, such as 1% to 2%. A losing run then never ends your month.
- Bet on what you know. Specialising in one league or format beats betting on everything.
- Compare implied probability with your own view before every bet, and skip bets where you have no edge.
- Check team news and conditions: playing XIs, the pitch, dew for night games and the weather forecast.
- Keep a record of stakes, odds and results. It shows which markets actually work for you.
- Never chase losses. A bigger stake to win back a loss is the fastest way to a bigger loss.

Frequently asked questions
What is “crickex bet”?
It is how many players search for our sportsbook and exchange. The markets and steps above are how betting works at Crickex.
What is the difference between back and lay?
Back means betting an outcome will happen; lay means betting it will not. A lay’s risk is its liability: stake × (odds − 1).
Can I cash out a cricket bet early?
On the exchange you can close a position at any time by placing the opposite bet, as in the trading example above, to lock in a profit or cut a loss.
What happens to my bet if rain stops play?
It depends on the market’s rules. Limited-overs matches may be decided by the DLS method; abandoned matches are usually void for match markets. Check the rules in each market.
Why do the odds include a margin?
So the bookmaker makes money over time. You can see it by adding up the implied probabilities of every outcome; anything over 100% is the margin.
Are there tips that guarantee a win?
No. Anyone selling guaranteed cricket tips or “fixed” matches is running a scam, and is not connected to Crickex.
