Cricket Betting at evo jili — Choose the Best Markets for BPL, IPL and the World Cup
From T20 to Test — evo jili brings a wide range of betting markets for Bangladeshi cricket fans across every format. From Match Winner to Live In-Play, a new opportunity waits with every ball.
Bangladesh's Favourite Cricket Formats and Tournaments
To get into cricket betting, the first thing to know is which format allows which types of bets. At evo jili you will mainly find three formats: T20, ODI and Test Cricket.
T20 is the fastest format — these 20-over matches see runs per over and live odds change very quickly. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), IPL and the T20 World Cup are the most popular among Bangladeshi fans.
ODI means a 50-over one-day match. The game plan is far more strategic, so market values shift at different stages. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in this format.
Test Cricket is a five-day contest. Because a draw is possible, the three-outcome market (Team A wins, Team B wins, Draw) is the most popular. In international Test series, matches featuring the Bangladesh Tigers are followed especially closely here.
Betting on football and other sports is also available at evo jili — but as with cricket, a three-outcome option (win, loss, draw) is almost always present; in football, lower-scoring matches make specific goal markets more common.

5 Popular Cricket Betting Markets
These are the most used markets at evo jili. A brief explanation of each is given below.
Match Winner
Bet in advance on which team will win the match. Example: Team A vs Team B — if you think Team A will win, place your bet at those odds. Two outcomes in T20 and ODI, three in Test.
Toss Winner
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. Example: between Team A and Team B, if you think Team B will win the toss, place your bet in that market.
Top Batsman
A market where you bet on which batsman from a given team will score the most runs. Example: among Team A's players, pick who you think will score the highest and place your bet on that name.
Total Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether a team's total runs in a specified number of overs will be above or below a set line. Example: will the runs in the first powerplay be more than 45?
Multi Bet / Accumulator
Multiple bets are combined into one slip. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply. Example: picking three teams to win across three matches gives odds of 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.80 = 3.78 — a ৳100 bet returns ৳378, but if any one selection loses, the entire bet is lost.
Back and Lay Betting
On an exchange you can bet for a team (back) or against them (lay). If you back Team A at odds of 2.00 for ৳1,000 and they win, you profit ৳1,000; if you lay Team A for ৳1,000 and they do not win, you profit ৳1,000.
Learn to Read Odds — Three Formats
In cricket betting, odds can be shown in three different formats: Decimal, Fractional and American. At evo jili the Decimal format is most common, but it is useful to understand all three.
Example 1 — the same price in three forms: Team A to win, ৳500 bet. Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. If the bet wins, total return is ৳1,125 (৳625 profit + ৳500 stake); if it loses, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — favourite's odds: Team B to win — Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American −200 (American minus odds show how much you need to bet to win ৳100). A ৳500 bet returns ৳750 (৳250 profit).
Decimal odds make the total return easy to calculate: Stake × Odds = Total Return. Fractional odds calculate profit only, using the numerator divided by the denominator. In the American format, a + sign shows how much profit a ৳100 bet earns, and a − sign shows how much you must bet to earn ৳100 profit.
Live In-Play Betting — A New Calculation with Every Ball
One of the most engaging aspects of cricket is being able to place bets while the game is in progress, known as in-play or live betting. At evo jili odds are updated continuously during a match — they shift in an instant when a wicket falls, a big six is hit, or play is interrupted by rain.
Example: Team A is batting, 80 runs for 2 wickets after 10 overs. At this point Team A's odds of winning may lengthen because the situation is in their favour. But if 3 quick wickets fall in the next over, the odds will suddenly swing toward Team B.
A few things to keep in mind with live betting:
- Watch the run rate per over and look for opportunities in the next powerplay market.
- Changes in pitch and weather conditions affect the over/under market.
- Under the pressure of the final overs, Top Batsman market odds move quickly.
- Before placing an in-play bet, make sure you have a stable internet connection.
For smooth live betting on mobile, you can use the evo jili App — available for both Android and iOS.
Practical Advice for Cricket Betting
Betting is always for entertainment — there is no guarantee of winning. The tips below will help you play more carefully:
- Understand the format: Knowing a little about both teams' recent performance in T20 and ODI makes it easier to choose a market.
- Set a budget: Decide how much you will bet in each session beforehand and do not go beyond that limit.
- Focus on one market: Beginners are better off starting with just the Match Winner market — learn the more complex multi bets gradually over time.
- No rushing in live betting: Odds change fast, so take your time to decide — assess the situation rather than betting on impulse.
- Play responsibly: Betting is entertainment, not a way to earn income. Avoid placing larger bets to chase losses after a loss.
- Know the rules: The terms for each market differ slightly. Before placing a bet, take a moment to check the Terms and Conditions.
