7ooo Cricket Betting — Best Odds on BPL, IPL and International Matches
From T20 to Test, BPL to T20 World Cup — bet on all major cricket matches at 7ooo across multiple markets, with a simple interface and fast payments.
The three formats of cricket and tournaments popular with Bangladeshis
For anyone interested in cricket betting, the first step is to understand the formats well, because T20, ODI and Test — these three distinct formats also work differently in the betting markets.
T20: The fastest and most popular format. Each team gets only 20 overs, so runs come quickly and the match can swing at any moment. Both BPL and IPL are played in T20 format. BPL holds a special place for Bangladeshi fans — the country's best cricketers play alongside international stars.
ODI: This 50-over format is relatively longer, making scores somewhat easier to predict. In addition to the T20 World Cup, the ICC Cricket World Cup is also played in this format.
Test: The longest format of cricket, played over five days. A draw is a possible result here, so the markets are different too. Besides match winner, session-based markets are also available. Taken as betting entertainment, the slow strategic nature of Test cricket can be quite enjoyable.
Note: A draw is very common in football, but in T20 and ODI cricket draws are almost unheard of — only in Test cricket is a draw a valid result. This difference is important when choosing your market.
Football and other sports
At 7ooo, you can bet on football as well as cricket. However, football and cricket betting are quite different. Football matches end in 90 minutes, draws are far more common, and with fewer goals, over/under markets work somewhat differently. In cricket, wickets, run rate and partnerships all influence the markets together. Markets are available for tennis, kabaddi and hockey too, but Bangladeshi bettors' main interest remains in cricket and football.
Popular betting markets at 7ooo
Each market has its own characteristics — below are seven main markets explained in plain terms.
Winning team of the match
The simplest market — pick which of the two teams will win. In T20 and ODI there are only two outcomes (Team A or Team B); in Test there are three (Team A, Team B or Draw). Example: If you think Team A will win, place your bet on Team A.
Toss winner
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The outcome is completely 50/50 — odds on both sides are usually close to each other. Example: If you think Team B will win the toss, place your bet on that side.
Highest run-scorer
Which batter from which team will score the most runs in an innings or across the full match — this market offers multiple options. Example: If you think Team A's opener will score the most runs, place your bet there.
Total runs — over or under
Choose whether the total runs scored will be above (over) or below (under) a set run line. Example: If you think total runs in a T20 match will exceed 320, select "Over".
Combination of multiple bets
Combine the outcomes of multiple matches or markets into a single bet. If all selections are correct, the return is large — but if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. Example: Team A, Team A and Team B to win three separate matches — place all three together as a multi bet.
Handicap bet
A virtual advantage or disadvantage is given to one team to level the playing field. If the weaker team is given a 20-run head start, their actual runs are calculated with that advantage included. Example: If Team B is given +20 runs and they lose by 18 runs, Team B still wins the handicap bet.
Betting Exchange Market
Alongside regular betting, in the exchange market you bet against other bettors. Here you have two options — BACK (betting on a team to win) and LAY (betting on a team to lose). It is a bit more complex but popular among experienced bettors. Always enjoy betting as entertainment — read the responsible gaming guidelines.
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds — how to read them
Odds on a betting platform are shown in three formats. All three convey the same information — only the way they are written differs.
| Format | Team A win (Example 1) | Team B win (Example 2) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | 1/4 |
| American | +200 | -400 |
Example 1 — Team A win, stake ৳500: Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. If you win, you get back ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake). If you lose, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B win (favourite), stake ৳500: Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400. American minus odds indicate how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. If you win, you get back ৳625 (৳125 profit).
Decimal odds are the easiest to understand — just multiply your stake by the odds to get your total return. At 7ooo, decimal format is shown by default.
How combined odds are calculated in a multi bet
When returns on a single bet seem low, many people opt for a multi bet. Here the odds of multiple selections are multiplied together to produce a larger combined odds figure.
3-selection multi bet example: If the odds on three separate matches are 1.60, 1.80 and 1.90 — Combined odds = 1.60 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 5.47 (approximately). With a ৳100 stake, if all three are correct you get back ৳547. But if any one of them loses, the full ৳100 is gone.
A multi bet means higher risk, because if even one selection misses you get nothing. So if you are betting for entertainment, it is better to keep the stake small. If you enjoy casino games, live games at 7ooo Casino are available on the same platform.
Live betting during a match — odds change with wickets and overs
Live or in-play betting is the opportunity to place bets while a match is in progress. In cricket the situation changes with every ball, so odds update in real time.
- When a wicket falls: The batting team's odds lengthen (meaning their probability drops) and the bowling team's odds shorten.
- After the powerplay: Based on the score, the over/under market for subsequent overs is reset to a new line.
- When the run rate changes: If the target changes due to the D/L method or a rain interruption, related markets may be suspended or re-evaluated.
- In the final overs: When the target is close, both teams' odds come very near each other — the most intense period of the match.
Live betting requires quick decisions, so an easy-to-use mobile interface is essential. Live betting on the 7ooo App is simple and fast.
Betting Exchange — how BACK and LAY work
BACK bet — betting on a team to win
BACK bet on Team A at decimal odds 1.80, stake ৳1,000:
- If Team A wins: ৳800 profit (before commission)
- If Team A loses: you lose ৳1,000
This works just like regular betting — you are backing a team to win.
LAY bet — betting on a team to lose
LAYing Team A against a ৳1,000 backer at the same odds of 1.80:
- If Team A does not win: ৳1,000 profit (before commission)
- If Team A wins: you pay out ৳800 liability (৳1,000 × 0.80)
In a LAY bet, as the layer you take on the role of the bookmaker.
Note: Commission may apply on the exchange. Betting is for entertainment — read the terms and conditions before betting.
Useful tips for new bettors
Betting is a form of entertainment — see it as a way to add enjoyment to sport within your own budget, not as a strategy for making money.
- Set a budget in advance: Decide how much you will spend on betting each day or each week, and stick to it.
- Understand the format: Before betting on T20 or ODI, have an idea of both teams' recent performances.
- Focus on one market: Start by getting familiar with simpler markets like match winner or over/under, then move on to more complex ones.
- No rushing in live betting: Even when in-play decisions need to be made quickly, consider the current score and situation rather than acting on emotion.
- Don't chase losses: After a loss, take a break instead of placing bigger bets to try to recover.
- Stay responsible: When betting starts to feel like a source of stress, take a break. Help is available on the Responsible Gaming page.
