T20, ODI and Test — bet with live odds, multiple markets and easy deposits across every format. A complete betting experience built for Bangladeshi cricket fans.
Three Formats of Cricket — Each with Its Own Character
Cricket is one of the most varied sports in the world. Each format has its own playing conditions, strategy and betting opportunities. Betting markets are open for all three formats at baji jili.
T20 Cricket
Every ball matters in this fast-paced 20-over format. In major tournaments like BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), IPL and the T20 World Cup, odds shift very quickly, which makes live betting especially popular here.
Most PopularODI Cricket
The 50-over one-day match brings a greater mix of strategy. In bilateral series and the ICC Cricket World Cup, there are opportunities to bet on match winner, top batsman and total runs markets.
Versatile MarketsTest Cricket

Beyond Cricket — Football and Other Sports
Alongside cricket, football betting is a major part of baji jili. You can bet on matches at various levels — the English Premier League, La Liga or the Bangladesh Premier Football League. In football, a draw is a separate outcome, so the market structure differs from cricket.
Cricket has only two outcomes — win or loss (with a draw possible in Tests). Football has three possible outcomes, so odds in the match-winner market are structured differently. Sports like kabaddi, badminton or volleyball have score-line and set-based markets.
For those used to cricket betting, football's handicap or Asian line markets may seem unfamiliar at first. But the core principle is the same — understand the odds, manage your budget and treat betting as entertainment.
Format Comparison
| Sport | Type of Outcome | Popular Markets |
|---|---|---|
| T20/ODI | Win/Loss | Toss, Top Batsman |
| Test | Win/Draw/Loss | Series Winner |
| Football | Win/Draw/Loss | Handicap, Goals |
5 Popular Markets in Cricket — With Simple Examples
Each market has its own characteristics. The most commonly used markets are briefly explained below.
Match Winner
The simplest market — which team will win? Two options in T20 and ODI, three in Test. Say Team A and Team B are playing — the team with a higher chance of winning will have lower odds.
Ideal for BeginnersToss Winner
You can bet on the toss result before the match. It is a completely random event, so odds for both sides are usually close to even. Popular for small bets.
Even ChanceTop Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in the match? Calculated at the end of Team A's or Team B's innings. Odds are spread across multiple players.
Player-BasedTotal Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs will be above or below a set number. For example: will Team A score more than 160 runs — you can decide based on pitch conditions and team form.
AnalyticalMulti Bet
Bet on several matches at once — if all win, the odds multiply and the return increases. But if even one loses, the entire bet is lost. With 3 selections at odds of 1.50, 1.60 and 1.90, the combined odds are approximately 4.56 — a ৳100 stake returns ৳456 if all three win.
Higher Return PotentialSeries Winner
You can bet on which team will lead throughout a series. In this longer-term market, odds shift slowly and are recalculated after each match result.
Long-TermDecimal, Fractional and American Odds — With Examples
baji jili displays odds in three formats. Getting familiar with them makes any market easier to understand.
| Format | Team A Odds | Return on ৳1,000 stake |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | ৳2,250 (profit ৳1,250) |
| Fractional | 5/4 | Same — ৳2,250 |
| American | +125 | Same — ৳2,250 |
Example 1 (Team A wins): Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. On a ৳1,000 stake, if you win the total return is ৳2,250 (৳1,250 profit plus ৳1,000 original stake back); if you lose, ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 (Favourite Team B): Team B's decimal odds of 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American −125. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100. On a ৳1,000 stake, if you win the total return is ৳1,800 (৳800 profit).
A Few Things to Remember
- Decimal odds below 1.00 would mean the return is less than the original stake — such odds are not possible.
- In fractional odds, the numerator is the profit and the denominator is the stake.
- American + odds are for underdogs; − odds are for favourites.
- All three formats convey the same information — only the way it is expressed differs.
- Always treat betting as entertainment — never stake money you cannot afford to lose.
Odds Shift When a Wicket Falls — In-Play Betting
Placing a bet before a match starts and placing one while the match is in progress are two completely different experiences. In live in-play markets, odds update after every wicket, every boundary and every over.
Say Team A has scored heavily in the first 5 overs — the odds on Team B winning will lengthen. Conversely, if 3 wickets fall in quick succession, Team A's chances drop and Team B's odds shorten. Understanding these shifts and betting at the right moment is what makes in-play betting interesting.
In T20, odds move very fast in the final few overs. In Test cricket, as the pitch deteriorates in the last hour of the day and conditions favour spinners, that too is reflected in the odds.
For these moments that call for quick decisions, the mobile interface of baji jili App is very convenient — live scores and odds can be viewed side by side.
Things to Keep in Mind Before You Start Betting
Cricket betting is enjoyable when you approach it with a plan. A few simple habits can keep your experience a positive one.
- Set a separate budget: Decide in advance how much you will spend on betting each week. Avoid placing larger bets to chase losses.
- Start with one market: Focus only on the match winner market at first. Betting across multiple markets at once can feel complicated.
- Consider outside factors: Read about pitch conditions, weather and team form as general background information — but remember that cricket is also a game of uncertainty.
- Set a time limit: Live betting moves fast — do not play for long stretches without a break. Take breaks and make decisions with a clear head.
- Stay responsible: Betting is entertainment, not a source of income. For more information, read the responsible gaming guidelines.
