877 bet Cricket Betting — place bets on T20, ODI and Test matches
From BPL to the international T20 World Cup — 877 bet offers betting on every cricket format. Join markets including match winner, toss, top batsman and more.
T20, ODI and Test — betting across all three formats
Much of the variety in cricket betting comes from its three main formats. T20 is the fastest — the situation changes with every over, making it the most popular for live betting. ODI involves much more tactical balance, as teams set their own pace across fifty overs. In Test cricket, pitch behaviour and weather play a major role over five days of competition — betting here requires considerably more patience.
BPL is the tournament closest to Bangladeshi fans. When the local franchise teams take the field, supporter enthusiasm is on a different level. IPL draws huge attention every year from March to May, while ICC events like the T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy see the most activity in international betting markets. All of these competitions have multiple markets available at 877 bet.
Understanding the format before betting on cricket is important — in T20 a single big over can change the entire equation of a match, whereas in Test cricket the impact of one wicket unfolds much more gradually.
Beyond cricket — betting on football and other sports
877 bet is not limited to cricket. Football betting is growing quickly in Bangladesh, particularly during European leagues and World Cup seasons. There is a key difference in the betting experience between cricket and football — cricket has specific events like innings, overs and wickets that create far more segmented markets, whereas football markets are mainly focused on goals and results.
Betting is also available on sports like tennis and badminton. However, this page focuses mainly on cricket, which remains the first choice for Bangladeshi bettors.

Popular betting markets in cricket
The markets below are used most often at 877 bet. A brief explanation of how each one works is given below.
Match Winner
You bet on which of the two teams will win the match. Example: choose either Team A or Team B — the result at the end of the match determines whether you win or lose.
Simple and popularToss Winner
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The outcome is entirely separate — it has nothing to do with the match result. This is a preferred option for quick, short-term bets.
Quick resultTop Batsman
You bet on which batter will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match. You can bet on the top scorer from either Team A or Team B.
Performance-basedTotal Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs scored will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. For example, whether total runs in the first innings will exceed 160 — this is especially popular in T20.
Statistics-basedMulti Bet
Results from multiple matches are combined into a single bet slip. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply and the return is larger. But if any one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Higher return potentialInnings Bet
Smaller-scale bets on how many wickets will fall or how many runs will be scored within a set number of overs — these can be placed on innings-based markets. You can join at any stage of the match.
Innings-basedDecimal, fractional and American — three types of odds
Betting platforms display odds in three different formats. They are all expressions of the same probability — only the way they are written differs. The example below shows the same situation in all three formats.
Example 1 — betting on Team A to win (not the favourite)
Decimal: 3.00 = Fractional: 2/1 = American: +200
On a ৳1,000 bet — if Team A wins, total return is ৳3,000 (৳2,000 profit + ৳1,000 original stake); if Team A loses, ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 — betting on Team B to win (the favourite)
Decimal: 1.50 = Fractional: 1/2 = American: -200
American minus odds indicate how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit — in this case ৳200.
On a ৳1,000 bet, if Team B wins the total return is ৳1,500 (৳500 profit); if they lose, ৳1,000 is gone.
The decimal format is the simplest — to calculate the return, just multiply the stake by the odds. 877 bet generally uses the decimal format.
Live in-play — odds shift with every wicket and over
One of the most engaging aspects of cricket betting is in-play or live betting — where odds keep changing while the match is in progress. When a wicket falls, the situation shifts immediately: the batting team's odds go up, the bowling team's come down. Similarly, if a bowler bowls consecutive maidens or twenty runs come off one over, both teams' odds adjust instantly.
In T20, dramatic shifts happen in the final five overs — in the death overs, a single six or a run-out can completely reverse the odds. In ODI, the batting situation after the powerplay — how the team is building runs in the middle overs — determines the state of play for bets. When live betting, keep an eye on partnerships and run rate alongside the scoreboard.
Live betting moves fast — there is little time to decide. Treating betting as entertainment is the best approach. The responsible betting guide has advice on setting a budget beforehand.
Practical tips for cricket betting
These tips help keep betting planned and controlled. Betting is always for entertainment — no strategy can guarantee a profit.
Choose markets based on the format
T20 has a higher probability of large scores, so predicting run totals matters more in over/under bets. Test matches can also end in a draw, so keep all three possible outcomes in mind when picking a market.
Set a budget beforehand
Decide the maximum you will bet before each session and stick to that limit. Placing larger bets to recover losses can make the situation worse.
Keep selections limited in multi bets
The more selections you add to a multi bet, the lower the chance that all of them are correct. Keeping it to 3–4 selections helps you stay in control of the bet.
Avoid rushing in live betting
When a match shifts quickly, keep a clear head. Analysing the situation before placing a bet leads to a better experience than making hasty decisions.
Learn the rules
Different rules apply in different markets when rain interrupts play or a match is abandoned. Reading the terms and conditions before betting reduces confusion later.
