nabaiji Cricket Betting — bet on every match from BPL to the T20 World Cup
Follow every ball, every wicket and every moment of cricket more closely on nabaiji's betting platform. Match winner, toss, top batsman, total runs — all these markets are available in one place.
The three cricket formats and which tournaments are followed most
T20 is the most popular format among cricket fans in Bangladesh. In this 20-over game the result can swing in just a few deliveries, so betting markets move quickly too. BPL generates huge interest across the country every season — matches are discussed everywhere from Dhaka's stadiums to tea stalls in smaller towns. IPL and the ICC T20 World Cup are covered with equal importance on nabaiji.
ODI, or One Day International cricket, is a 50-over game. Each phase of the innings plays out differently, making over-by-over run markets popular. Test cricket is the longest format — in a five-day game, pitch conditions, weather and a team's batting depth become important factors in betting decisions.
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football at nabaiji. Football has the possibility of a draw, so most markets offer three outcomes — team A wins, team B wins, or draw. In limited-overs cricket a draw is generally not possible, so the market structure is different. Other sports such as kabaddi or tennis have their own scoring systems — understanding them before betting makes decisions easier.
T20 Cricket
A fast-paced 20-over format. All markets are available for BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup.
One Day International
Separate markets for the powerplay, middle overs and death overs in a 50-over game.
Test Cricket
The longest format, played over five days. Pitch conditions, weather and team line-ups influence betting decisions.
The most-used markets
Knowing the markets before you start betting makes it easier to decide.
Which team will win the match — the simplest market. Example: if you bet on team A to win and team B wins, the bet is lost.
Which team will win the toss before the match starts. The outcome is completely independent — it has no connection to pitch conditions or team strength.
Which player will score the most runs in the innings. You pick one batsman from several options.
You bet on whether the total runs will be more (over) or less (under) than a set number — two options to choose from.
Combining bets from multiple matches into one. If all selections win the return increases, but one wrong selection loses the whole bet.
How many runs will be scored in the first 6 overs — depends on how well the batting team's openers start.
One team is given an artificial advantage or disadvantage to balance the bet. This makes betting between a strong and a weak team more interesting.
Things to keep in mind when choosing a market
- Start with one or two markets, then try others gradually.
- Multi bets offer higher returns but carry much higher risk.
- The toss market is entirely luck-based — no information gives you an edge.
- Betting is for entertainment — no market guarantees a profit.
The three odds formats — how to read each one
Odds on a betting site are shown in three ways: decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same value differently — explained below with nabaiji examples.
৳500 bet, odds 3.00
If team A wins, total return is ৳1,500 — ৳1,000 profit plus ৳500 stake back. If team A loses, the full ৳500 is lost. For the same match: decimal 3.00 = fractional 2/1 = American +200.
৳500 bet, odds 1.50
If team B wins, total return is ৳750 — ৳250 profit plus ৳500 stake back. In American format, -200 means a ৳200 stake is needed to win ৳100.
Which format is more convenient?
Most players in Bangladesh prefer the decimal format because you just multiply to get the total return. Fractional is the British style, and American is more common in the US market.
On nabaiji you can view odds in whichever format you prefer. Use 24/7 live chat for help with anything.

Live betting — how odds change when a wicket falls
In-play or live betting is one of the main attractions of cricket betting. While the match is on, every event — a wicket, a boundary, the end of an over — has an immediate effect on the odds. In T20 especially, these changes happen very fast, so decisions need to be made quickly.
Markets can close quickly during live betting — sometimes they pause just before a delivery is bowled. Keeping your eyes on the screen and deciding at the right moment is what matters.
In over-by-over markets you can bet separately on how many runs will be scored in a set of 6 balls. The bowler's form, the batsman's strike rate and the conditions all factor in. Keep in mind, though — in cricket the situation can change at any moment.
Live betting is straightforward on nabaiji's mobile-friendly platform. Android and iOS apps are available through official channels.
Some useful habits for cricket betting
Betting is purely for entertainment. Keeping the following points in mind leads to a better experience.
- Set a fixed budget and never bet more than that. Betting is entertainment — chasing losses is not a good habit.
- Understand one market well before moving to the next. The match winner market is the easiest to start with.
- Avoid rushing decisions during live betting. A few seconds of thought can make a difference.
- Betting on multiple markets in the same match may partly offset a loss, but you can also lose on both.
- Use bKash, Nagad, Rocket or Upay for quick deposits and withdrawals on mobile.
- If you don't understand a market or a rule, get help in Bengali through 24/7 live chat.
If betting ever feels like it's going beyond entertainment, read the responsible gaming guidelines and use nabaiji's self-exclusion option if needed.
