solt Cricket Betting — place bets across every format from T20 to Test
From BPL and IPL to international series — solt carries odds for every major cricket match. Choose your market from match winner to over-by-over in-play betting.
Cricket's three formats and which competition is most popular
For fans in Bangladesh, cricket is more than just a sport — it is a reason to talk, get excited and watch together. solt keeps betting markets open across all three main formats.
T20: The fastest format, with results decided within 20 overs. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), IPL and the T20 World Cup are the biggest events in this format. The situation can shift on every ball, so in-play markets are most active here.
ODI (One Day International): This 50-over format is comparatively slower paced but involves greater tactical depth. Betting markets are also wide ranging for the big World Cup matches.
Test Cricket: Predicting results in this five-day format is the hardest of all. Fans naturally take a special interest when the Tigers play a Test match.
Cricket vs football — how the betting differs
In cricket, weather, pitch conditions, the toss result and the batting order all carry a lot of weight in determining the outcome. In a T20 match, the situation can shift so quickly in the final overs that in-play odds update after every ball. In Test matches, a draw is a valid result, so markets cover three possible outcomes.
In football, markets across a ninety-minute match are relatively straightforward — match winner (1X2), number of goals, and both teams to score are the most common. Because interest in European leagues and the football World Cup is high in Bangladesh, solt keeps football markets open as well.
Among other sports, betting markets are also available on kabaddi, badminton and tennis. However, cricket markets are always the most active among Bangladeshi users.
solt's popular betting markets and how they work
Each market has its own characteristics. Below are seven common markets — each with a short example.
Match Winner
Place your bet by answering one straightforward question — who will win? Example: if you pick Team A, you only get a return if Team A wins.
Toss Betting
Which team will win the toss. The result does not depend on the play on the field, so this market is simple and settles quickly.
Top Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in the innings. The recent form of a team's leading batters is relevant for this bet.
Total Runs Over / Under
A specific run line is set — choose whether the total runs in the match will go above or stay below that line.
Top Bowler
Which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. The effectiveness of pacers versus spinners changes depending on the pitch.
Multi Bet
Combine the results of multiple matches together — if all your selections are correct, you get a return based on the multiplied odds. If even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
First Wicket Partnership
An over/under market on how many runs the opening pair will score — how the pitch behaves during the powerplay plays a big role here.
How to read odds in three formats
Odds on a betting platform appear in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three are simply different ways of expressing the same probability.
Example 1 — bet on Team A to win, ৳1,000 stake
The same odds in three formats:
If the bet wins, return is ৳2,250 (৳1,250 profit + ৳1,000 stake back). If the bet loses, ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B the favourite, ৳1,000 stake
American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100. On a ৳1,000 stake, the return is ৳1,250 (৳250 profit).
The decimal format is the most straightforward in Bangladesh — multiply your stake by the odds to get your total return.
Multi bets and how combined odds are calculated
In a multi bet or accumulator, several selections are combined together. The odds of each selection are multiplied to produce the combined odds — meaning there is a chance of a larger return from a smaller stake. But keep in mind — if all selections are not correct, the entire bet is lost.
Multi bet example — 3 selections, ৳100 stake
Decimal odds for three separate selections: 1.50 × 1.60 × 1.80 = 4.32 (rounded)
If all three selections are correct, the return on a ৳100 stake is ৳432. If even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
Multi bets are one way to enjoy betting, but the more selections you add, the greater the risk. Betting is for entertainment — it is not a reliable source of income.
Cricket market example
In limited-overs matches (T20/ODI) there is no draw, so the match winner market has only two sides.
Team A: 1.80
Team B: 2.00
Place ৳500 on Team B — if Team B wins, the return is ৳1,000 (৳500 profit); if Team A wins, ৳500 is gone.
Live in-play — odds change when a wicket falls
In-play betting at solt means placing bets while the match is in progress. In T20 cricket, every ball creates a new situation — when a wicket falls, the batting team's chances of winning drop a step, and the odds change immediately.
In-play markets typically include: runs in the next over (over-by-over under/over), at what score the next wicket will fall, total runs in a specific powerplay, and the outcome at the current moment of the match.
At the 15th over, Team A has scored 135 runs for the loss of 5 wickets — at that moment, Team B's odds of winning may be lower than before because Team A is under pressure. In-play betting offers the chance to act on these moments. However, when the situation changes fast, the odds change instantly too, so you need to watch the match closely.
In-play markets are easily accessible through solt's mobile app — that is where the convenience of betting while watching the match is greatest.
Some practical tips before you start betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — but knowing a few basic things in advance makes the experience clearer.
- Each market has its own rules — read the terms of that specific market before placing a bet. Full details of all terms are on solt's terms and conditions page.
- Set a fixed budget and never stake more than that amount — stick to that limit even if your balance does not balance out at the end of a session.
- In T20 matches, weather and pitch reports are relevant — rain or a slow pitch affects total runs, which matters for over/under markets.
- Keep the number of selections low in a multi bet — each selection you add multiplies the risk, even as the combined odds increase.
- After losing a bet, do not try to recover losses by suddenly placing a much larger stake — betting is a form of entertainment, not a way to get even.
- If you want to read more about responsible betting, detailed information is available on solt's responsible gaming page.
