vip 1777 Cricket Betting — T20 to Test, a complete guide to betting in every format
Which markets are popular in BPL, IPL and international cricket, how to read odds, and how live betting works — all on one page.
The three cricket formats and how they differ for betting
The three main cricket formats — T20, ODI, and Test — each offer a different betting experience. T20 is the fastest: the match ends in just twenty overs, so odds shift from moment to moment. A big over or three quick wickets can change the entire picture. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are the most familiar stages for this format, and Bangladeshi fans follow both tournaments with great enthusiasm.
In ODI cricket, teams build their innings more deliberately over fifty overs. A wider range of markets is available here — total runs, top batsman, or team performance. Test cricket is a five-day game of patience — a draw is also a possible result, so the market covers three outcomes: Team A wins, Team B wins, or a draw.
The T20 World Cup and ICC events add international-level excitement. At vip 1777, betting markets are open across all three formats.
Types of betting in football and other sports
Alongside cricket, vip 1777 also offers betting on football and several other sports. The key structural difference between football and cricket betting is the number of outcomes — in football, a draw is a separate and fairly common result, so the match result market has three options. In T20 or ODI cricket a draw does not normally occur, keeping the market straightforward.
Football has additional markets such as goal scorer, correct score, or half-time result. In cricket, their equivalents are markets like top batsman, maiden over, or runs in a specific over. Multi bets are available in both sports — combining multiple selections multiplies the odds, but if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.

The most popular betting markets in cricket
The markets below are the most commonly used in BPL, IPL, and international matches. Once you understand how each one works, placing bets becomes much easier.
Match Winner
T20 ODI TestA bet on which team will win the match. For example — in a T20 between Team A and Team B, if you bet on Team B and Team B wins, you receive a return based on the set odds. If Team A wins, you lose the bet.
Toss
All FormatsA bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. This is a straight fifty-fifty market, so the odds are usually close to even. It has no direct connection to the result of the match.
Top Batsman
T20 ODIA bet on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the full match. Selections are made within each team. An opener generally has more opportunity to score runs, so their odds tend to be lower.
Total Runs Over/Under
T20 ODIA bet on whether the total runs in the match or in one innings will be above (over) or below (under) a set number — for example 160. You choose one of the two options.
Multi Bet
ComboCombining multiple matches or markets into one bet. If you correctly predict the outcomes of three separate matches together, the odds multiply. However, if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost — a detailed example is given in the odds section.
Powerplay Runs
T20 ODIA bet on how many total runs a team will score during the powerplay overs (usually the first six overs). The number of wickets and the bowlers' form play a significant role in this market.
Decimal, Fractional and American — odds in three formats
The same odds can be displayed in three different formats on a betting site. They may look different, but they all mean the same thing.
Example 1 — three formats side by side (bet on Team A to win, ৳200 stake)
| Format | Odds | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | ৳2.50 returned for every ৳1 staked (including stake) |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet |
If you win, return: ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 stake). If you lose: you lose ৳200.
Example 2 — odds on the favourite (bet on Team B to win, ৳200 stake)
| Format | Odds | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.25 | ৳1.25 returned for every ৳1 staked |
| Fractional | 1/4 | ৳1 profit for every ৳4 staked |
| American | -400 | ৳400 must be staked to make ৳100 profit |
If you win, return: ৳250 (৳50 profit + ৳200 stake).
In American format, a minus (-) sign means the team is the favourite — it shows how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. A plus (+) sign means the underdog — it shows how much profit you make on a ৳100 stake.
Multi bet example
If the decimal odds for three selections are 1.40, 1.80, and 1.90 — the combined odds are:
1.40 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 4.79 (approximately)
A ৳100 stake returns ৳479, but only if all three selections are correct. If even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
Live betting — how odds shift with wickets and overs
You can place bets after the match has started — this is called live or in-play betting. It is particularly effective in cricket, because the situation on the field changes with every over and every wicket.
Suppose Team A is batting and had a good powerplay. At that point, Team A's odds of winning will shorten (meaning they are now the favourite). The reverse is also true — if three quick wickets fall, Team B's odds will shorten and Team A's will lengthen.
In T20, if 60 runs are needed off the last five overs, the balance of the match tilts toward the bowling side. In ODI, this calculation shifts across far more runs and time. In live betting, understanding the flow of the match is more useful than in pre-match betting.
Live betting in Test matches is more complex — pitch behaviour, weather, and session results combine to push odds up and down many times across five days. For those who know cricket well, it can be a rewarding experience.
While betting at vip 1777, it is always important to follow the responsible gaming policy — betting is a form of entertainment, not a guaranteed way to earn money.
Check the pitch report before the match starts — knowing whether it favours spin or pace makes it easier to choose your markets.
Avoid rushing in live betting — rather than placing a bet the moment a wicket falls, watch the next two overs to see how the game develops.
More selections in a multi bet means more risk. Adding more than three or four selections significantly increases the chance of at least one being wrong.
Set your budget and stick to it. Rather than putting your entire budget on one match, spread it across several.
The toss market is straightforward and short-term — it has no connection to the match result, so treat the two separately.
