Cricket Betting at mv77 — A Complete Guide from T20 to BPL and International Matches
mv77 offers a wide range of betting markets for cricket fans in Bangladesh. From match winner to live in-play — bet across all formats in Bengali, in your own language.
What type of betting is available for each format
Cricket is played in three main formats — T20, One Day (ODI) and Test. Each format has its own pace and strategy, so the types of betting markets differ as well.
T20: Matches in this format of up to 20 overs finish quickly. T20 is most popular during the BPL season at Dhaka's grounds. Runs shift rapidly in short sessions, so each over creates a new opportunity in live betting.
ODI: In a 50-over match, the innings unfolds in two phases, giving more room to bet on total runs and partnership markets. ODIs are active during ICC events and bilateral series.
Test: In five-day cricket, a draw is a valid result, so there are three possible outcomes — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw. In a long match, pitch behaviour and weather play an important role.
Bangladesh fans are particularly interested in BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup. Bangladesh Tigers international matches are also covered on mv77, with multiple markets available to bet on.
Football and other sports
Alongside cricket, mv77 also offers betting markets for football and other sports. In football, markets beyond match winner — such as number of goals and handicap — are popular. There is also basketball betting with separate quarter-based markets where you can place bets on each phase — full details are on our basketball page. Compared to cricket, draws are a common result in football, so market pricing works differently.
Popular markets in cricket and examples
A variety of betting markets are available for cricket at mv77. Below is a brief overview of the most commonly used markets.
Match Winner
Bet on which team will win the match. Two outcomes in T20 and ODI (no draw); three in Test. Example: choose Team A or Team B, result is settled at the end of the match.
Easy to startToss Winner
Bet on who will win the toss before the match starts. The result is known before the match begins, making it a quick market. Example: bet on Team A's captain winning the toss.
Result known before the matchTop Batsman
Who will score the most runs in a specific innings or across the whole match. Example: bet on who will be the highest run-scorer in Team B's first innings.
Batting marketTotal Runs Over/Under
Whether the total runs in an innings or match will be above or below a set number. Example: will Team A's total runs in the first innings go over 160 — choose over or under.
Runs marketTop Bowler
Which bowler will take the most wickets. Example: bet on Team A's spinner taking the most wickets in the match.
Bowling marketMulti Bet
Combine multiple selections into one bet. If all selections are correct, the odds are multiplied for the return — but if even one is wrong, the entire bet loses. Example: three separate selections across three matches — all correct means a large return.
Multiple marketsHandicap market: One team is given a virtual run advantage to reduce the gap between the two sides. For example, a −15 run handicap on Team A means 15 runs are deducted from their final score when settling the result.
How to read decimal, fractional and American odds
Betting sites may display odds in three common formats. The same probability is expressed in three different ways — understanding one makes it easy to convert the others.
Example 1 (all three formats together): Team A to win — decimal 2.25 = fractional 5/4 = American +125. On a ৳500 stake, if Team A wins the return is ৳1,125 (৳625 profit + ৳500 stake); if Team A loses, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 (favourite): Team B to win — decimal 1.25 = fractional 1/4 = American -400. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳500 stake, if Team B wins the return is ৳625 (৳125 profit).
In-play odds that shift with wickets and overs
Live or in-play betting means placing bets while the match is in progress. In cricket, odds change after every wicket, every over and after the powerplay.
For example: at the start of the match, Team A's odds were 1.90. But if they lose 3 wickets within 10 overs, the odds may move to 2.50 or higher, as the market now considers their chances of winning to be lower. Conversely, if Team B scores quickly, their odds come down.
In T20 tournaments like BPL or IPL, each 6-ball over creates a new situation. A maiden over (no runs) and a maximum over (6 sixes) can completely change a team's chances of winning.
In-play betting is time-sensitive — odds change fast. It is important to review the market carefully before placing a bet.
- A team's score and wickets at the end of the powerplay are two key pieces of information for understanding in-play odds.
- Keeping a live stream or scorecard open alongside betting helps you follow the situation more clearly.
- If a cash-out option is available, you can close the bet mid-match and take a partial return.
Multiple selections in one bet — how a multi bet works
In a multi bet, multiple separate selections are combined into one bet. If all selections are correct, the odds of each are multiplied to calculate the total return. But if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet loses.
Example (multi bet): Three selections with decimal odds of 1.40, 1.50 and 1.60 respectively. Combined odds = 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.60 = 3.36 (approximately). On a ৳100 bet, if all three are correct the return is ৳336; if even one is wrong, ৳100 is lost.
A multi bet offers the chance of a larger return, but the risk is also higher. For new bettors, it is better to start with a small stake and two selections.
Betting Exchange
In exchange betting, you bet against other bettors rather than against the site. There are two roles — BACK (in favour of an outcome) and LAY (against it).
Example (exchange): BACK Team A at decimal 1.80 with ৳500 — if Team A wins, ৳400 profit (before commission); if they lose, ৳500 is gone. Or LAY Team A against a bettor staking ৳500 — your liability is ৳400 (৳500 × 0.80); if Team A does not win, you receive ৳500; if they win, you pay ৳400.
Quick calculation checklist
- Decimal odds × stake = total return
- Profit = total return − stake
- Multi bet: multiply all odds together
- LAY liability = stake × (odds − 1)
- American + sign = underdog, − sign = favourite
Some advice on approaching cricket betting with a clear head
-
Set a budget first: Decide how much you will bet each month or each match before you start. Do not go beyond that limit.
-
Choose markets based on the format: In T20, total runs markets shift quickly; in Test, pitch and weather play a bigger role.
-
Keep a live score open: Placing in-play bets without watching the current scorecard increases the chance of mistakes.
-
Do not bet on emotion: When your favourite team is playing, emotions run high. Be especially careful when betting on a team you support.
-
Do not put everything on one bet: Rather than placing your entire budget on one bet in a single match, split it into smaller portions. This reduces risk.
-
Treat it as entertainment: Cricket betting is not a way to earn income — it is entertainment connected to the game. Read our guide to learn more about responsible gaming.
