Cricket Betting at pcc — Top Markets for BPL, IPL and T20 World Cup
Bet on Bangladesh's most popular sport at pcc. Across T20, ODI and Test formats, you get everything in one place — from live in-play markets during a match to pre-match betting before it starts.
Cricket's three formats and favourite tournaments
T20
Each team plays just 20 overs, so matches move quickly. Both BPL and IPL are T20 format, which is the most popular among Bangladeshi fans. Results can flip in an instant — making the betting markets more active too.
T20 World CupODI
The 50-over format balances batting and bowling strategy more evenly. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are held in ODI format. Bangladesh's national team tends to perform well in this format, so fan interest is high.
ICC World CupTest
The five-day format tests patience and planning. Pitch conditions, weather and the progress of each innings give Test betting markets a completely different feel. Interest in Bangladesh Tigers Test matches is also steadily growing.
Test SeriesBPL — Bangladesh Premier League
The BPL is Bangladesh's own T20 franchise league. With a mix of local and overseas players, every match is fiercely competitive. During the BPL season, pcc offers detailed markets for every match.
BPLIPL and International Matches
The Indian Premier League is the most-watched T20 league in the world, and it is hugely popular in Bangladesh too. The T20 World Cup and other ICC events also bring big betting seasons. Bilateral series against Pakistan, Sri Lanka and India are equally popular.
IPL
Football and other sports betting
Alongside cricket, pcc also offers football betting. In football, match winner, goal totals and handicap markets are the most common. The difference from cricket is that cricket has specialised markets based on wickets, overs and partnerships, which football does not have.
In football, a draw is counted as a separate result, so pricing between two teams works differently. T20 and ODI cricket matches generally do not have draws, which makes the market structure simpler.
Markets are also available for kabaddi, tennis and badminton, but among Bangladeshi bettors, cricket and football markets are the most active.
Popular betting markets in cricket
You can place bets across several market types in each match. Below is a brief overview of seven common markets you will find when betting on cricket at pcc.
Match Winner
A bet on which of the two teams will win — a straightforward market. For example, if you bet on Team A to win, your bet is settled as a win if Team A wins the match.
Toss Market
A bet on the outcome of the toss before the match starts. You back either Team A or Team B to win the toss. It is a short-term and simple market.
Top Batsman
A bet on which batsman will score the most runs in a specific innings or across the full match. Considering the form of the main batters in each team is important here.
Total Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs scored in the match will be over or under a set number. For example, whether total runs will exceed 150.
Multi Bet
Combining multiple matches or markets into a single bet. All selections must be correct to win — if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. For full details on betting rules, visit the Terms and Conditions page.
First Wicket Fall
A market on at what score the first wicket will fall in an innings, or which bowler will take it — focused on the start of the innings. The form of the openers plays a big role here.
Man of the Match
A bet placed in advance on who the top performer of the match will be. Both batting and bowling contributions are taken into account when making this decision.
Three ways to read odds
Betting platforms generally display odds in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability, just written differently.
| Format | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Total return ৳3,000 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | Profit ৳2,000 + stake ৳1,000 |
| American | +200 | ৳200 profit on ৳100 |
If Team A wins: stake ৳1,000 → return ৳3,000 (profit ৳2,000). If they lose, ৳1,000 is gone.
| Format | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.80 | Total return ৳1,800 |
| Fractional | 4/5 | Profit ৳800 + stake ৳1,000 |
| American | -125 | You need to stake ৳125 to win ৳200 profit |
If Team B wins: stake ৳1,000 → return ৳1,800 (profit ৳800). American minus odds mean that amount must be staked to win ৳100.
Decimal odds are the simplest — just multiply by your stake to get the total return. Fractional and American express the same information in different ways. Before you start betting at pcc, it is recommended to read the responsible gaming guide.
Live betting during the match
With live in-play betting, you can place bets even after a match has started. Odds shift instantly with every wicket or big six. For example, if Team A loses two quick wickets in the first five overs, Team B's odds of winning will shorten.
Run rate in the powerplay, bowler performance in the middle overs, and batter form in the death overs — odds fluctuate at every stage. Being able to read these shifts makes decision-making in live markets much easier.
In Test matches, pitch conditions change by the end of each day; in ODI, a pinch hitter's arrival can shift odds; in T20, the last-over equation keeps markets active. The live betting experience is different in each format.
Live betting is even more convenient on mobile — you can follow the match and join markets at the same time on the pcc app.
Useful tips for cricket betting
Start with one market
Rather than betting on many markets at once, start with a simple one like match winner or total runs. Once you understand how a market works, moving on to others becomes easier.
Keep track of pitch and weather conditions
A spin-friendly pitch tends to slow scoring in the middle overs; a pace-friendly pitch can bring early wickets in the powerplay. The chance of rain can change the outcome of an ODI or Test match.
Be careful with multi bets
Multi bets offer higher returns but also carry more risk — one wrong selection and the entire bet is lost. It is better not to combine more than two selections when starting out.
Set a budget
Decide on an amount for each session before you start. Betting is a form of entertainment — it should not be treated as anything beyond that.
Do not rush in-play markets
Many people rush in live betting because odds change quickly. Taking a moment to think before each bet reduces mistakes.
