Cricket Betting at gt — place bets on all formats from BPL to T20 World Cup
gt offers cricket fans in Bangladesh markets including match winner, toss and top batsman. Live odds for all three formats — T20, ODI and Test — are available here.
Cricket's Three Formats and Major Tournaments
Cricket's three international formats — T20, ODI and Test — each offer a distinct betting experience. T20 matches last just a few hours, so the situation changes quickly. A big six or a sudden wicket can shift the odds in an instant, which is why live betting in T20 is especially active.
In ODI matches, strategy shifts mid-game, the run rate fluctuates, and a broken partnership can change a team's momentum entirely. Test cricket runs over five days, so pitch conditions, weather and a team's bowling depth all play a major role in betting.
The most popular tournaments among Bangladesh fans are the BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), the IPL and the ICC T20 World Cup. The BPL rivalry between domestic franchise teams runs high among local fans. The IPL brings the world's best players together, keeping every match open. Bangladesh Tigers' results in ICC tournaments add further interest for bettors in Bangladesh.
| Format | Overs / Duration | Key Betting Feature | Popular Tournaments |
|---|---|---|---|
| T20 | 20 overs per innings | Odds change quickly, high-scoring matches possible | BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup |
| ODI | 50 overs per innings | Mid-game strategy, run rate is a major factor | ICC Cricket World Cup, Asia Cup |
| Test | Up to 5 days | Pitch and weather are decisive, long-term markets available | Bilateral series, ICC World Test Championship |
Football and Other Sports Betting
At gt, you can bet on football alongside cricket. Football matches wrap up within ninety minutes, so the timeline is short, but a goal can come at any moment — making live betting very popular here too. Both international club football and national team matches are available.
The main difference between cricket and football betting is match length and the type of markets on offer. Cricket has many innings-based, over-based and wicket-based markets that do not exist in football. Football typically sees the most activity on markets like match result (win, draw, loss), number of goals and first goalscorer.
Beyond that, gt also has virtual games and a casino section. If you are interested in casino games, you can browse the live casino and table game collection at gt Casino. If you prefer card games, the Callbreak page has the rules and strategies for Callbreak.

Cricket's Popular Betting Markets
Several markets are available for cricket betting at gt. Each market requires a different kind of analysis and offers a different experience.
Match Winner
Pick which of the two teams will win. There is no draw option in T20 or ODI. Example: Team A vs Team B — if you select Team B, you win the payout only if Team B wins.
Simplest MarketToss Winner
You can bet on the toss result before the match starts. This is unrelated to the match outcome — it is decided purely by the coin flip. It is a straightforward option if you want a quick result.
Pre-Match MarketTop Batsman
Select which batter in a team will score the most runs. Example: among five batters in Team A, you pick the one batting at number three — if they score the highest, your bet wins.
Player MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
Choose whether the runs scored will be above or below a set number. Example: with a line of 160 runs, if you select "over", the bet wins if the innings reaches 161 or more. Pitch conditions and weather play a big role in this market.
Score MarketMulti Bet
Add multiple selections into one bet — the odds multiply. Example: three selections across three matches produce a combined odds figure, but if even one selection loses, the entire bet is lost.
High-Return MarketTop Bowler
Select which bowler will take the most wickets in an innings or across the full match. Pitch type and weather directly affect this market. On a spin-friendly pitch, consider picking a spinner.
Bowling MarketUnderstanding Odds — Three Formats
At gt, odds are generally displayed in decimal format, but it is worth understanding fractional and American formats too — all three appear across different platforms.
Example 1 — The Same Odds in Three Formats
Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200
Return on a winning bet: ৳3,000 (৳2,000 profit + ৳1,000 original stake)
On a losing bet: ৳1,000 is gone.
Example 2 — Odds for the Favourite
Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American −400
American minus odds mean: the amount you need to stake in order to make a ৳100 profit.
Return on a winning bet: ৳1,250 (৳250 profit + ৳1,000 original stake)
Higher odds mean the outcome is considered less likely — returns are higher. Lower odds mean the outcome is considered more likely — but the profit is smaller. Betting is always for entertainment — no outcome is guaranteed.
Multi Bet Calculation
Three selections across three matches — decimal odds 1.50 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 5.13 (approximately).
Return: ৳513
If even one selection is wrong, you lose the full ৳100.
Multi bets offer higher returns, but all selections must be correct — the risk is proportionally higher.
Example only — not a guaranteed returnLive In-Play Betting — Feel the Match
Live betting at gt means you can adjust your bets while the match is in progress. When a wicket falls or a lot of runs come off an over, the odds shift immediately. Catching those moments makes live betting all the more engaging.
For example: in a T20 match, Team A is scoring quickly in the powerplay. At this point, Team A's odds of winning will shorten and Team B's odds will lengthen. If a big partnership breaks in the middle overs, the opposite happens. In live betting, you can make decisions by watching these swings.
Live betting in Test cricket is a little different — the gradual deterioration of the pitch, the possibility of a draw and the fading light on day five all influence long-term markets.
- When a wicket falls, the chasing team's odds rise quickly
- When sixes are hit in the powerplay, the "over" odds on total runs shorten
- When a spin-friendly wicket opens up, the top bowler market shifts
Practical Tips for Cricket Betting
Cricket betting is one way to enjoy the game — it is better approached as entertainment rather than a source of income. Following a few general tips makes the experience more enjoyable.
- Set a budget: Decide in advance how much you will bet in each session. Do not go beyond that amount.
- Understand the format: T20, ODI and Test play differently — the same analysis does not apply across all formats.
- Check the pitch report: Knowing whether it is a spin-friendly or pace-friendly surface helps with top bowler and total runs markets.
- Compare odds: Odds on the same market change at different moments — this is useful in live betting.
- Stay responsible: If betting feels like a burden, take a break. Follow the responsible gaming guidelines.
- Know the rules: Before you start betting, it is worth reading the terms and conditions once.
Is betting entertainment or a way to earn?
Betting on cricket or any sport is primarily a form of entertainment. No outcome is guaranteed and no strategy can win every bet. Enjoy placing bets — but only bet what you can afford to lose.
