Cricket betting at 277 bet — top markets from BPL to the T20 World Cup
Bet on every cricket format, follow live odds, and pay closer attention to every moment of the match. Sports betting at 277 bet goes beyond cricket — from football to much more.
Three cricket formats and Bangladesh's favourite leagues
In Bangladesh, cricket is more than a sport — it is a passion. Fans across the country come together for every Tigers match. At 277 bet, you can follow that passion and enjoy sports betting more deeply.
T20 Cricket
T20 is the fastest format. With the entire match completed in just 20 overs, odds in betting markets shift quickly. BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup are the three tournaments most popular among Bangladeshi fans.
ODI Cricket
A one-day match is a 50-over contest played at a moderate pace. There is more room for the situation to shift in the middle overs, so in live betting markets the odds for each team move up and down at different times.
Test Cricket
In a five-day Test match, a draw is a valid result, so there are three outcomes to bet on in the markets. Pitch conditions, weather and the batting lineup all influence the odds.
Betting on BPL, IPL and international matches
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) takes domestic cricket to a new level every year. Every match in this tournament features competition among the country's franchise teams, which keeps the betting markets lively. With global stars playing together in IPL, the odds are also more competitive. Every Bangladesh Tigers match in an international series is a fresh betting experience at 277 bet.
Alongside cricket, the sports section at 277 bet regularly covers various ICC tournaments and bilateral series. Before you start betting, it is worth understanding the markets for each format well.
How football and other sports betting differ
After cricket, football is the most popular sport in Bangladesh. The Premier League, La Liga and the UEFA Champions League are widely followed among Bangladeshi fans. Football betting markets at 277 bet are also active.
However, there are some fundamental differences between the betting structure for cricket and football. In football, the Match Winner market typically has three outcomes — a team wins, loses or draws. In T20 and ODI cricket there is no draw, so there are only two outcomes. This difference directly affects how odds are set.
Cricket also changes situation over by over, making live betting markets much more dynamic. In football, a goal shifts odds quickly, but in cricket a single wicket falling or the end of the powerplay can change odds immediately. 277 bet also offers betting on tennis, kabaddi and other sports.
Betting is a form of entertainment — it is better to treat it as a way to enjoy sports more rather than as a source of income. For more information, take a moment to read the Responsible Gaming page.
Cricket vs Football — key differences
- No draw in T20/ODI — two outcomes, so odds are distributed differently
- In football, the Match Winner market has three possible results: win, loss and draw
- In cricket, odds have more opportunity to change after every over
- In football, a goal or red card has an immediate effect on the odds
- A draw is possible in Test — three options are available in the market
6 core markets in cricket betting and how they work
Each market has its own rules. See a brief overview of the most familiar markets below.
Match Winner
The simplest market — bet on which team will win the match. Two outcomes in T20 and ODI, three in Test. Example: if you bet on Team B to win between Team A and Team B, and Team B wins, you receive a return based on the stated odds; if Team A wins, the full stake is lost.
T20 • ODI • TestToss Winner
Bet on the toss result before the match starts. Since the probability is nearly equal, the odds for both teams in this market are usually similar. Example: if you think Team A will win the toss, place a bet on that market — it has no connection to the match result.
All FormatsTop Batsman
Bet on which batter will score the most runs in a match or innings. You can pick the top scorer within one team or across the whole match. Since there are more competitors, odds in this market are generally higher.
Top ScorerTotal Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a specific runs target. Example: target is 160 runs — if you think the total runs will be more than 160, bet on Over; if not, bet on Under. You can consider pitch conditions and the team's batting strength to make your decision.
Over • UnderMulti Bet
Combine multiple matches or markets into a single bet. You win a return only if all selections are correct — one wrong selection loses the entire bet. However, because the odds multiply together, the potential return is also higher. Learn more about multi bets and see how to add multiple selections together.
Combo BetTop Wicket Taker
Bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in a match or innings — pitch type and the strength of the bowling attack play an important role in this market. If your bet on the top wicket taker is correct, you receive a return based on the stated odds.
Bowling MarketDecimal, Fractional and American Odds — explained with simple examples
The same odds can be written in three ways. 277 bet generally uses the decimal format, but being able to read all three is useful on any platform.
Example 1 — Odds for Team A to win (stake ৳200)
| Format | Odds | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | Total return = stake × odds |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 stake |
If Team A wins, the total return on a ৳200 stake is ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 original stake). If Team A loses, ৳200 is lost.
Example 2 — Odds for favourite Team B (stake ৳200)
| Format | Odds | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.80 | Total return = stake × odds |
| Fractional | 4/5 | ৳4 profit for every ৳5 staked |
| American | -125 | ৳100 profit on a ৳125 stake (minus means favourite) |
If Team B wins, the total return on a ৳200 stake is ৳360 (৳160 profit + ৳200 original stake).
Three types of odds at a glance
-
Decimal Odds
The simplest format. Stake × odds = total return. 2.50 means ৳250 back on ৳100.
-
Fractional Odds
The British method. 3/2 means ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked — not counting the original stake returned.
-
American Odds
Plus (+) means underdog, minus (−) means favourite. −125 means you must stake ৳125 to win ৳100 profit.
Profit and loss calculations for handicap or Over/Under markets follow the same method. The only difference is in the condition for winning — for example, in a handicap market you need to win by a specific runs or goals margin.
Odds change when a wicket falls — how in-play betting works
Place bets while the match is in progress
With in-play betting, you can still place bets after a match has started. In cricket, odds update in real time after every over, every wicket and the end of each powerplay.
Example: if Team A scores only 25 runs in the first 5 overs, the odds for Team A to win may increase — because the target is now harder to reach. Conversely, a strong partnership of 80 runs for 3 wickets would bring Team A's odds down.
In live betting, decisions need to be made quickly. Markets are sometimes suspended temporarily — such as at the last ball of an over or the moment a wicket falls. This is normal and happens to allow odds to be recalculated.
- After a wicket, the odds for the weaker team generally rise
- If many runs are scored in the powerplay, the batting team's odds fall
- The run rate becomes important in the death overs
What you need to know before starting cricket betting
Betting is a form of entertainment. Keeping the points below in mind will make the experience more considered.

Understand the market before betting
Before starting with multi bets or in-play betting, begin with straightforward markets such as Match Winner.
