Cricket Betting at 6six — Top Markets from BPL to the T20 World Cup
6six offers detailed cricket betting options to add extra interest to Bangladesh's most popular sport. You will find popular markets across all three formats — T20, ODI and Test. Live in-play betting and multi bets are all available in one place.
Cricket's Three Formats and Bangladesh's Favourite Tournaments
Before betting on cricket, it helps to have a clear understanding of the three main formats. Each format has a different pace of play, so betting markets behave differently across them.
T20
This format lasts just 20 overs and is the fastest-paced of the three. Teams in BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup play most of their international matches in this format. Results can shift quickly, so live odds change rapidly too. The Bangladesh Tigers' T20 performances receive particular attention here.
ODI
The 50-over ODI format allows more room for strategy. Mid-match momentum shifts are clearly visible — a partnership or a big wicket can change the whole picture. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are the main platforms for ODI betting.
Test
This five-day format tests pitch conditions and team patience. A draw is a valid result, which means the match winner market in Test cricket has three options. Markets such as wickets per session and innings score are especially popular in Tests.
The Difference Compared to Football and Other Sports
At 6six you will find betting markets for football and several other international sports alongside cricket. However, cricket holds a distinct place among Bangladeshi bettors.
Football matches generally end in 90 minutes and a draw is a common result, which is why the three-way market (home win, draw, away win) appears so often. T20 cricket rarely ends in a draw, so the market structure is different. Cricket also provides over-by-over data that causes live odds to shift much more quickly.
If you want to step away from sport and enjoy casino games, 6six Casino has slots, live casino, and many other options waiting for you.
Popular Cricket Markets and How They Work
Each market works differently — some depend on the overall match result, others on a specific moment. Seven main markets are explained below.
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which of the two teams will win. Example: Team A vs Team B — you choose Team A. If Team A wins, the bet is successful; if not, you lose your stake.
Toss Winner
This market is decided before the match begins and only the toss result counts. The match score or final result has no bearing — if you bet on the team that wins the toss, the bet is successful.
Top Batsman
You predict which batsman will score the most runs in a specific innings or across the whole match. Example: you pick Team A's top batsman — if that player scores the most runs in the team, you win the bet.
Total Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a line — for example, total runs in an innings at 165. You decide whether the actual runs scored will be higher (over) or lower (under). The nature of the pitch and the batting depth of the teams can inform your decision.
Top Bowler
In this market you select which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. If the pitch suits spin, backing a spinner may be reasonable; on a pace-friendly track, a fast bowler may be the better choice.
Multi Bet
Multiple selections are combined into a single bet and the odds multiply, making larger returns possible. However, if any one selection is wrong the entire bet is lost — every selection must be correct. Those who want to learn more about multi bets can read the 6six Bet guide.
Number of Wickets
You can select how many wickets will fall in a specific innings, in an over/under format. This market can be relatively straightforward to call when a strong batting side is involved.
How to Read Decimal, Fractional and American Odds
Odds can be written in three formats, but the numbers all express the same return — only the way they are presented differs. Bangladeshi users on 6six generally find the decimal format most familiar.
| Format | Team A (Underdog) | Team B (Favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | 4/5 |
| American | +200 | -125 |
Example 1 — Team A (Underdog): With a ৳200 bet, if Team A wins you receive ৳600 back (৳400 profit + ৳200 stake). If Team A loses, you lose ৳200.
Example 2 — Team B (Favourite): Team B's decimal odds are 1.80. A ৳200 bet returns ৳360 if Team B wins (৳160 profit). American minus odds (-125) mean you need to stake ৳125 to win ৳100.
Live Odds Change with Every Wicket and Over
Live in-play betting lets you place bets while a match is in progress — every ball, wicket and over has an immediate effect on the odds. A team that is 30 runs behind going into the 18th over may see its odds drop sharply after a single big six.
A few things to keep in mind with in-play betting:
- When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds generally lengthen
- After the powerplay, the market position shifts as the run rate is analysed
- In the final five overs, if the target becomes reachable, the chasing team's odds drop quickly
- Rain or a pitch change can cause markets to be temporarily suspended

Practical Tips for Cricket Betting
A few simple habits can help you keep betting enjoyable and avoid unnecessary risk.
Focus on One Market
Start by getting a good understanding of one market (such as match winner). Betting across many markets at once makes things complicated.
Set a budget before you begin
Decide in advance how much you are willing to spend on betting each week or month. If you lose, do not go beyond your budget.
Compare Odds
Before placing a bet, understand the decimal odds — calculate your return (stake × odds) and then make your decision.
Take Breaks
Stop after a run of losses. Placing large bets out of emotion is harmful in the long run — treat it as entertainment.
