Popular cricket bets

There are hundreds of different bets you can place on cricket. Whether you want to back the best batsman, or simply pick a winner, there is a market that suits you. These are some of the most popular cricket Bet Types:

Winner

Simple and straight forward, placing a “Winner” bet means you’re choosing the team that you think will win the match. For T20 matches, this bet usually includes the Super Over. For Test matches, you’ll be given a chance to place a Match Result (1X2) bet where you can either bet on one of the teams to win, or bet on the match to end in a draw.

Team with Top Batter

With all the changes in the laws of the game, cricket is slowly becoming a batsman’s game, and now, you can take advantage of that and bet on the team that you think will have the highest scoring batsman. But it doesn’t end there, you can also bet on the player you think will score the most runs.

Overs/Unders

In Overs/Unders betting you’re betting on the combined total number of various scores both teams will accumulate in the match. There are a number of Overs/Unders bets you can place on cricket including the number of runs, wickets, fours, sixes, run outs, catches, stumpings and more.
