Cricket Betting on tap555 — Top Markets from T20 to Test
Bet on every match in international cricket including BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup on tap555. From match winner to top batsman — there are many types of markets to choose from. This guide covers understanding odds, live betting, and how to enjoy betting responsibly.
Cricket's Three Formats and Major Tournaments
To bet on cricket, it helps to first understand the differences between formats, because the style of play and variety of markets differ across T20, ODI and Test matches.
T20 Cricket
Matches last just 20 overs, so momentum shifts quickly. T20 markets in tournaments like BPL and IPL are the most popular for betting. In this short format, the course of a match can change completely at any moment.
ODI Cricket
In 50-over one-day matches, team strategy builds up gradually. ODI betting markets in the ICC World Cup and bilateral series are varied — top batsman and total runs bets are popular.
Test Cricket
In a long five-day Test match, a draw is a possible result. So you can bet on three outcomes here — which is fundamentally different from T20 and ODI. Innings-based markets are also available.
BPL
The Bangladesh Premier League is the country's biggest T20 franchise tournament. Featuring local and international players, this competition draws the most interest from Bangladeshi bettors.
IPL
The Indian Premier League features the best cricketers in the world. IPL markets remain a year-round topic of interest among Bangladeshi bettors.
T20 World Cup
Bangladesh's national team (the Tigers) takes part in the ICC T20 World Cup, making local interest in this tournament the highest. The range of markets on the international stage is also wider.
International Series
Betting markets stay active throughout the year for bilateral Test, ODI and T20 series. Alongside cricket, football and other sports are also available on tap555.
Football and Other Sports Betting
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football on tap555. Football markets are available for Premier League, La Liga and international tournament matches. One key difference in football is that a draw is a regular result — meaning you can bet on three outcomes: home team wins, away team wins, or the match is a draw. In T20 or ODI cricket there is no possibility of a draw, so the odds structure is different.
In football, odds shift instantly after every goal, just as a single wicket in cricket can change the whole momentum of a match. On tap555, you can bet on both cricket and football through tap555 Bet.
For those who enjoy card games, Rummy is a skill-based option where strategy and focus are the key factors.
Cricket's Popular Markets
Winning Team
Picking one team to win — either before the match or while it is in progress — is the simplest and most common market. For example, if you think Team A will win, you place a bet on them — the bet succeeds if Team A wins.
Toss Winner
You can bet on which team will win the toss. This is entirely luck-based and split into two outcomes, so odds are generally close to even.
Highest Run Scorer
This market lets you bet on who will score the most runs for a given team in the match — you pick one player from several options. For example, who will score the most runs for Team A.
Total Runs — More or Less
In this market you predict whether the total runs in the match will be above or below a set number. For example, if the line is 165 runs — the bettor picks "Over" (more) or "Under" (less).
Multiple Selections in One Bet
In a multi bet, the odds of several matches or markets are multiplied together — so the potential return is much higher. Keep in mind, though, that if any single selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Most Wickets
You can bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. This market is more common in T20, as wickets tend to fall more frequently during the powerplay and death overs.
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds
Odds are displayed in three different formats across various sites. Knowing them makes it easier to compare markets. The two examples below explain how they work.
| Format | Team A (Underdog) | Team B (Favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 4/5 |
| American | +150 | −125 |
Example 1 — Team A (Underdog): A ৳200 bet returns ৳500 if Team A wins (৳300 profit + ৳200 original stake). If Team A loses, ৳200 is gone. In American format, +150 means ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet.
Example 2 — Team B (Favourite): A ৳200 bet returns ৳360 if Team B wins (৳160 profit). In American format, −125 means you need to bet ৳125 to win ৳100. Decimal 1.80 and fractional 4/5 — all three formats say the same thing.

Odds change when a wicket falls — in-play betting
With live in-play betting, you can place bets in real time while the match is in progress. Odds are recalculated after every wicket, every boundary and every over. For example, if a strong team loses three wickets in the first three overs, their odds of winning increase and the opponent's odds drop.
- Run-line odds shift instantly when runs come quickly in the powerplay
- A wicket in the death overs can turn the market completely around
- The live match winner market is the most frequently changing
- Separate markets are available for the next over's run total or the next wicket
Live Betting Tips
- Get familiar with the markets before the match starts
- Decide your stake for each bet in advance
- Avoid placing large bets on impulse
How to Enjoy Betting Responsibly
Betting is primarily a form of entertainment. It can add to the enjoyment of watching cricket — but decisions should be made with a clear head, not on emotion.
Set a Budget First
Before each betting session, decide the maximum amount you are willing to spend. Not going beyond that limit is the core principle of responsible betting.
Understand One Market Well
Start with straightforward markets like match winner or toss. Betting on familiar markets makes the whole experience easier to enjoy.
Be Careful with Multi Bets
Multi bets offer higher returns but the entire bet is lost if even one selection is wrong. Start by limiting yourself to two or three selections.
