Cricket Betting at 70 jaya — A Complete Guide to Betting on BPL, IPL and International Matches

Cricket's three formats and Bangladesh's favourite competitions
In cricket betting, it is important to keep the three separate formats in mind, because the style of play differs in each one, and so the types of markets change as well.
T20: The fastest format. Matches finish within just 20 overs, so things happen quickly — one big over or one wicket can change the entire picture of a match. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are the most popular events in this format, drawing the largest audience in Bangladesh.
ODI: This 50-over format has seen many memorable wins for the Tigers. ODI matches run throughout the year across ICC tournaments and bilateral series.
Test: In this five-day format, markets move slowly but run deep. The rate of wickets falling, total runs in an innings and the chance of a draw — all of these are reflected in the betting markets.
The most cricket markets open on 70 jaya during the T20 World Cup, ICC Champions Trophy and BPL. Football is also available on this platform, but users from Bangladesh tend to favour cricket.
Cricket vs football — differences in betting
Betting on cricket and football are quite different experiences. A cricket match can run from a few hours to five days, so the markets are varied — total runs, number of wickets, individual performance and over-by-over results are all available. Football is usually finished within 90 minutes and, with fewer goals scored, the range of markets is narrower — mainly match result, number of goals and first goalscorer.
A draw is possible in cricket (in Test format), but in T20 or ODI one team always wins, so the market is split into two. In football, three outcomes are possible — team A wins, draw, or team B wins.
In sports like kabaddi, tennis or badminton, there are fewer markets and lower liquidity, so odds can sometimes fluctuate more. Cricket and football have the greatest market depth.
If you want to combine bets from multiple sports, you will find a step-by-step guide on how to add multiple selections in the multi-bet page.

7 popular betting markets with simple examples
The core idea of each market is explained with a short example. Teams and numbers are for illustration only.
Match Winner
Simplest marketPredict which of the two teams will win. There is no draw in T20 or ODI, so there are only two selections — team A or team B. Example: if you think team A will win, place your bet on that team.
Toss Winner
Quick resultSettled before the match even starts. Bet on which team will win the toss — it has nothing to do with the match result. This market is a good choice if you want a quick outcome.
Top Batsman
Performance marketBet on which player within a team will score the most runs. This is the fun of following one batsman throughout the match. Example: which of team A's three batters will score the most.
Total Runs Over/Under
Runs-based marketThe platform sets a runs line (e.g. 160). Choose whether the total runs in the match will be above that (over) or below it (under). Take pitch and weather conditions into account.
Multi Bet
Multiple selectionsYou can combine the results of multiple matches in a single bet. If all selections are correct, the total return increases; if one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. See the multi-bet guide for details.
Top Bowler
Performance marketBet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. Considering the current form of team B's bowlers will help you assess this market.
Handicap and Over-by-Over Markets
When there is a difference in strength between two teams, the handicap market adds or subtracts a notional margin to create balance. Example: if team B is given +20 runs, that number is added to their final score to determine the result — no specific stake or return example applies here. In the over-by-over market, you predict how many runs will be scored in a specific over.
How to read odds in three formats
Betting platforms usually display odds in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability; only the way they are written differs.
Example 1 — an underdog bet
Say team A might win — odds are 3.00 decimal, 2/1 fractional, +200 American. A ৳500 bet returns ৳1,500 if it wins (৳1,000 profit + original ৳500 stake). You lose ৳500 if it loses.
Example 2 — a favourite bet
Team B is the favourite — 1.80 decimal, 4/5 fractional, -125 American (American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100). A ৳500 bet returns ৳900 if it wins (৳400 profit).
Most cricket bettors use the decimal format because the calculation is simple — just multiply the odds directly by the stake to get the total return.
| Format | Team A (underdog) | Team B (favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | 4/5 |
| American | +200 | -125 |
| Return on ৳500 stake | ৳1,500 | ৳900 |
Team names and numbers are for illustration only — these are not live odds or a guarantee of winnings.
Live in-play — everything changes with wickets and overs
In-play betting lets you place bets in real time while a match is in progress. In cricket this is particularly engaging because the situation on the field changes with every ball.
Example: team B is batting — if they make a strong start in the powerplay, their odds of winning shorten (meaning they become favourites). But if 3 quick wickets fall, the odds shift again. These are the moments that set live betting apart.
There is no time to linger in live markets — odds change fast, so decisions need to be made quickly. Live betting is even easier through the 70 jaya mobile app.

Practical Tips for Beginners
Betting is a form of entertainment — there is no guaranteed winning strategy. The tips below help keep your play responsible.
Set a budget
Decide in advance how much you will spend on betting each week or month, and stay within that limit. Adjusting your budget based on whether you are winning or losing is not a good idea.
Choose markets based on your understanding of the format
The same market works differently in T20 and Test. The total runs market is harder to read in Test cricket and easier in T20. Focus on the format you understand best.
Do not bet on too many markets at once
New players often bet on many markets at the same time. Focusing on one or two familiar markets to start with leads to a better experience.
Learn to read odds
With decimal odds, simply multiply by the stake to get the return. The lower the odds, the more likely the market considers that outcome — but the profit is also lower.
Do not rush in live betting
Odds change fast in-play, so avoid making decisions on impulse. Stick to your plan.
Follow responsible gambling limits
Betting is for entertainment only. Chasing losses by placing more bets is not the right approach. See the responsible gaming guide for more.
