Cricket Betting at pvip — Tigers' matches to BPL, all the best markets
Across every cricket format — T20, ODI and Test — pvip offers all popular betting markets including match winner, toss and top batsman. Minimum deposit ৳500 via familiar payment methods including bKash and Nagad.
Cricket's Three Formats and Bangladesh's Betting Culture
From T20 to Test — each format has its own pace and a different betting approach.
T20 Cricket
This twenty-over format is the fastest and the most popular among bettors. During the BPL and IPL seasons, each match carries many betting markets. Because the situation changes ball by ball, T20 is especially suited to live betting.
One-Day Cricket (ODI)
Across two innings of fifty overs each, even more markets become available — total runs, partnerships and over/under lines work particularly well in ODIs. The ICC Champions Trophy and T20 World Cup both fall under this section.
Test Cricket
In five-day Tests, betting markets shift gradually. Because a draw is possible, three result options are available — Team A wins, Team B wins or a draw. The extended duration of Test matches suits bettors who prefer a strategic approach.
In Bangladesh, cricket is more than just a sport — when the BPL season arrives, the whole country turns its attention to the game. International matches featuring the Tigers carry special significance for every bettor. At pvip, you can bet on BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup and ICC tournament matches.
Alongside cricket, pvip also lets you bet on football — from European leagues to international FIFA matches. Football betting is somewhat different because draws are more common there. In cricket (especially T20 and ODI), draws are almost absent, so you get head-to-head odds between just two outcomes. Understanding this difference makes choosing a market easier.
5 Popular Betting Markets and How They Work
Each market has its own rules. A brief explanation of each is given below.
Match Winner
The simplest market — who will win the match? Example: if you bet on Team A to win, you receive a payout if Team A wins; if they do not win, the bet is lost.
EasiestToss Betting
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The result is known quickly and the market applies to all formats.
Quick ResultTop Batsman
A bet on who will score the most runs in a specific innings or across the whole match. Example: which batsman will score the most runs for Team A?
Skill BetTotal Runs Over/Under
This market is about whether the total runs in the full match or a specific powerplay will be above or below a set line. Example: will more than 70 runs be scored in the first 10 overs?
Bet Both WaysMulti Bet (Accumulator)
Selections from multiple matches are combined — a payout is only given if every selection is correct. Example: betting that Team A, Team B and Team A each win their respective matches — if all three are not correct, the bet is lost. Detailed rules and tips for multi bets are available on a separate page.
Big OddsFirst Wicket
A bet on within how many runs or by which bowler the first wicket will fall. This is especially popular in T20 because both runs and wickets matter in the powerplay overs.
Powerplay BetLearn to Read Betting Odds — Three Formats
Odds are displayed in three international formats — Decimal, Fractional and American (Moneyline). All three represent the same outcome; only the way they are written differs.
Example 1 — Bet on Team A to win (৳1,000 stake):
Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125.
If Team A wins, total return is ৳2,250 (profit ৳1,250 + original stake ৳1,000).
If Team A loses, ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 — Bet on favourite Team B (৳1,000 stake):
Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200.
A minus figure in American odds shows how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit.
If Team B wins, total return is ৳1,500 (profit ৳500).
The Decimal format is generally the easiest because you simply multiply the number by your stake to get the total return. Beginners will find it simpler to start with Decimal.
| Format | Example | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | ৳1,000 × 2.25 = ৳2,250 total return |
| Fractional | 5/4 | ৳5 profit on a ৳4 stake |
| American (+) | +125 | ৳125 profit on a ৳100 stake |
| American (-) | -200 | A ৳200 stake is needed to make ৳100 profit |
The figures above are examples only — actual odds vary by match and circumstances.
Live Betting — Odds Change the Moment a Wicket Falls
The real excitement of cricket is that the situation can change from one moment to the next during a match. With pvip's in-play betting you can place bets after the match has started — and the odds update after every ball.
For example: if two wickets fall in quick succession in the first over, the odds on the batting team lengthen (meaning the platform is willing to pay more because that team's chances of winning have fallen). Conversely, if a batsman races to a quick fifty, the odds on their team shorten.
Decisions in live betting must be made quickly. Markets may temporarily close after an over ends or during a drinks break. Separate markets are available for the powerplay, middle overs and death overs.
pvip's live casino section also offers real-time gaming — where you can play baccarat, roulette and other table games with a live dealer.
Practical Tips for Getting Started with Betting
Treating betting as a form of entertainment keeps the experience enjoyable.
Start with small stakes
If you are betting for the first time, starting with the minimum amount is the sensible approach. Once you understand the markets, increase gradually. Rather than spreading bets across many markets at once, focus on the formats you are familiar with.
Set a clear budget
Decide in advance how much you are willing to spend each week or each season. If you reach that limit, take a break from betting. You can find more details by reading the responsible gaming guidelines.
Build knowledge in one market
Each market works differently. Start with match winner, then try markets like over/under or top batsman.
Avoid rushing in live betting
Because odds in in-play markets change rapidly, placing large bets on impulse is not a good idea. Stick to the plan you decided on beforehand.
Betting is entertainment, not income
Cricket betting is one way to add enjoyment to watching a match — it is not a guaranteed source of income. Keeping this perspective in mind reduces disappointment and lets you enjoy the game.
