xbaji Cricket Betting — Best Markets for Every Bangladesh Tigers Match
From match winner to live in-play across BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup and international cricket — find betting markets for all formats in one place at xbaji. Football and other sports are covered too.
Cricket Formats and Competitions
Cricket's three main formats — T20, ODI and Test — each call for a slightly different approach to betting. A T20 match finishes in about three hours, so odds shift quickly with every over. ODI gives a bit more time, allowing you to check odds around the middle of an innings. In Test cricket, pitch conditions and weather become important factors in your betting plan across five days.
Among the most popular tournaments for Bangladeshi fans, BPL draws particular interest. Alongside it, every Bangladesh Tigers match in the IPL and ICC T20 World Cup generates wide excitement. At xbaji, all these competitions are covered in one place — no need to search across separate sites.
Football is also quite popular in Bangladesh alongside cricket. One key difference between cricket and football betting is that draws are rare in cricket — T20 and ODI matches almost always produce a result — while in football a draw is an equally likely outcome. This means markets are structured differently. In other sports like tennis or badminton, bets are placed directly between two competitors, which changes how odds work as well.
Popular Betting Markets
Several markets are available for cricket betting at xbaji. Each market has its own purpose and works differently — some require you to predict the outright result, others focus on statistics.
Match Winner
All you need to do is pick which team will win the match. In T20 or ODI, if team A wins your bet is successful; if team B wins you lose. The simplest market and ideal for getting started.
Toss Betting
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. It has nothing to do with the match result — only the coin flip outcome counts. Useful for gaining experience with small bets.
Top Run Scorer
Bet on which batter in a team will score the most runs. The result is determined once the team's full innings is complete. Keeping the batting order and pitch type in mind helps.
Total Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a target run total — for example 160. You decide whether the total runs scored will be more (over) or less (under) than that. Regardless of which team wins or loses, only the run count matters.
Multi Bet Across Several Matches
Multiple selections from different matches are combined on a single bet slip. A big return comes only if every selection is correct — one wrong selection and the entire bet is lost. Odds are multiplied, so the return is higher but so is the risk.
Bowler Performance
Bet on how many wickets a specific bowler will take or how many runs they will concede in their overs. This is a cricket-specific market — individual performance markets of this kind are not as widely available in football.
How to Read Odds
Odds are written in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability, just written differently. The example below shows what happens if you place a ৳500 bet on Team A to win:
Here 2.25 means ৳2.25 returned for every taka staked — stake included. Fractional 5/4 means ৳5 profit for every ৳4 staked. American +125 means ৳125 profit on a ৳100 bet.
Now look at an example for the favourite — Team B to win, bet ৳500:
American minus odds (−200) mean you need to bet ৳200 to make ৳100 profit — this indicates the favourite. xbaji generally displays decimal format, which is easier to read.
All Three Formats at a Glance
The same odds can be written in three ways. For Team A:
- Decimal 2.25 — total return of 2.25 times your stake
- Fractional 5/4 — ৳5 profit for every ৳4 staked
- American +125 — ৳125 profit on a ৳100 bet

Betting is for entertainment. There is no guarantee of winning — play within your budget.
Live In-Play Betting LIVE
In-play or live betting means placing bets while a match is in progress. In cricket this is especially useful because the situation changes with every ball. Whether a batter is scoring quickly or a wicket has just fallen, odds update at that moment.
Say two wickets fall in the first powerplay — the odds on the total runs under market will naturally shift in favour of under. Or if the batters are building a good partnership in the last five overs, the match winner odds will start moving quickly.
Decisions in live betting need to be made fast, as offers are sometimes open for only a few minutes. xbaji's mobile platform shows live scores and odds together, so it is easy to follow everything from your phone.

What to Know Before You Start Betting
Cricket betting is a form of entertainment — not a guaranteed source of income. Keeping a few basic things in mind makes for a better experience:
- Set a budget: Before each bet, decide on a limit that suits your means. It is wise not to bet beyond that limit.
- Understand one market first: Start with match winner, as it is straightforward. Betting on many markets at once is risky for beginners.
- Consider the format: T20 produces quick results, but in Test cricket the situation changes over five days. Know which format you are most comfortable with first.
- Be careful with multi bets: Combining several selections increases the potential reward, but one wrong pick loses the entire bet. Get some practice before moving to multi bets.
- Avoid rushing in live betting: Odds change quickly, but take a moment to think rather than placing a bet in a hurry.
- Bet responsibly: Betting is only for those aged 21 and above. If you feel it is becoming a problem, see the responsible gaming guidelines.
Multi Bet Calculation
You pick selections across three separate matches — odds of 1.40, 1.60 and 1.80 respectively. In a multi bet these are multiplied together:
All three selections must be correct — if even one is wrong, you lose the full ৳100.
