Cricket betting at uubuzz — bet on all formats from T20 to Test
uubuzz offers detailed betting markets for cricket fans in Bangladesh — both before and during matches. Follow every over in BPL, IPL and international series and bet on your preferred markets.
Cricket's three formats and favourite tournaments
Cricket betting involves three distinct formats — T20, ODI and Test. Each has its own character, so the approach to placing bets differs too.
T20: In this 20-over format, a match can turn around quickly. The situation can change in an instant in the final few overs. T20 betting is most popular in leagues like BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL. When a BPL night match is on in Dhaka, the live markets at uubuzz have a distinct pull.
ODI: In a fifty-over match, strategy runs deeper. After the mid-innings break, there is an opportunity to analyse the situation and adjust your bets. Beyond the T20 World Cup, ODI matches in the ICC Champions Trophy and the World Cup also generate large markets.
Test: In a five-day match, betting opportunities shift the most — odds can move dramatically when wickets fall, the pitch deteriorates, or the weather changes. To bet on Test cricket, you need to understand the rhythm of the entire match.
In all three formats, uubuzz offers detailed markets ranging from match winner to over/under. Every Bangladesh Tigers series and international match is also covered.
Betting on football and other sports
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football at uubuzz. Football betting works quite differently from cricket — markets like both teams to score, handicap and correct score are popular alongside match winner.
In cricket, a single wicket or a six can instantly change the odds. In football, live odds remain relatively stable until a goal, but after a goal the entire market reshapes. T20 betting demands quick decisions; Test betting tests patience — football sits somewhere in between.
Markets are also available for other sports including tennis, badminton and e-sports. Each sport has its own betting character — when a cricket bettor places a football bet for the first time, the language of the market feels a little new, but the underlying logic is the same.
Cricket vs football — where the differences lie
- In cricket, markets change with every delivery; in football, changes come with goals or red cards.
- In T20, the last five overs are the most important for betting; in football, it is the last 15 minutes.
- In Test cricket, pitch conditions and weather directly affect the odds.
- Cricket has a toss market; football does not.
Popular betting markets and how they work
Several types of markets are available for cricket betting at uubuzz. Each market works differently — below are the seven most commonly used ones.
Match Winner
Bet on which team will win the match. In T20 and ODI there are two outcomes (team A or team B); in Test a tie or draw is also possible. The simplest and most common market.
Most commonToss Winner
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. This is a completely independent market — it has no relation to the match result. Both outcomes carry roughly equal odds.
Bet before it startsTop Batsman
Bet on which batter will score the most runs for their team. Each batter in a team has separate odds. The result is determined at the end of the innings.
Innings-basedTotal Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether the total runs scored in a match or an innings will be more (over) or less (under) than a specified number. For example: total runs 160 over/under in a T20.
Two outcomesMulti Bet
Combine selections from multiple matches into a single bet. If all selections win, the returns are multiplied across all odds; if one loses, the entire bet is lost. A detailed odds example is given below.
Higher risk, higher returnHandicap Betting
The weaker team is given a virtual advantage to level the competition between two sides. For example, if team B is given a 15-run handicap, they must win by more than 15 runs to win the handicap market.
Balancing the two teamsHow to read odds
Betting odds are written in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same information differently. uubuzz generally displays the decimal format, but understanding the other two is also useful.
Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125
If it wins, return is ৳450 (profit ৳250 + original stake ৳200); if it loses, ৳200 is gone.
Decimal 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American -125
(A minus sign in American odds shows how much you need to stake to win ৳100.)
If it wins, return is ৳360 (profit ৳160).
Multiplying decimal odds directly gives the total return — which is why most bettors find it the easiest format. Fractional is more common in European publications; American is mainly used in the American market. Regardless of the format, the one rule remains the same — calculate your potential return before placing a bet.

Comparison of three formats
| Format | How it is written | Usage |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | Asia, Europe |
| Fractional | 5/4 | British market |
| American | +125 / -125 | American market |
All three formats give the same return — only the way of expressing it differs.
Live in-play betting — odds during the match
You can still place bets after a match has started — that is in-play or live betting. This feature is especially useful in cricket, because odds change instantly when a wicket falls or a super over is declared.
Say the first team scored 180 runs in 20 overs. The match winner market odds against the second team will now be completely recalculated. If the second team loses two wickets early, their odds of winning will lengthen further — and the first team's odds will shorten.
In-play betting in Test matches is even more varied. On any of the five days, pitch conditions, rain or a change in batting order can affect the markets. You can also bet on over-by-over markets on how many runs will be scored in each over.
Using uubuzz on mobile makes it convenient to receive market updates while watching live scores. Cricket live markets can be followed directly on the uubuzz app.
Practical betting tips
- Start with one market. The match winner market is simple and straightforward — focusing on it at the start gives you a clear understanding of betting.
- Set your stake in advance. Decide how much to stake on each bet beforehand and stick to it. It is not wise to drain your entire balance on a single match.
- Make quick decisions in live markets. Odds change fast in in-play betting. Deciding which market you want to bet on in advance prevents mistakes made in a rush.
- Be careful with multi bets. Combined odds may look attractive, but if any one selection is wrong, you lose everything. A multi bet with fewer selections is safer.
- Betting is entertainment, not investment. Cricket betting is a way to enjoy the game. Never place a bigger bet trying to recover a lost one.
- Know the rules. Each market has its own rules — for example, what happens to a bet if a match is cancelled. Reading the terms and conditions once avoids confusion later.
