Cricket Betting at Puntit

Fans of cricket have no shortage of competitions and tournaments to bet on. At Puntit, you'll find numerous markets and solid odds to place your wagers on your favourite teams and players. If you wish to learn more about cricket betting, we've got you covered with all the details you need. Keep reading this guide for more information.

Cricket Betting Odds

Cricket betting odds show you how much you can win and how likely an outcome is. At Puntit, you can choose to show the odds in decimal format. So, if you see odds of 2.00, a $10 bet would return $20. The higher the odds, the bigger the payout (but the riskier the bet). Odds can also change during live matches depending on what's happening in the game.

What Are the Basic Rules of Cricket?

Simply put, cricket is a bat-and-ball game played between two teams of eleven. The goal is simple: score more runs than the other team. One team bats, trying to rack up runs by hitting the ball and running between the wickets or smashing it to the boundary for fours and sixes. The other team fields and bowls, doing their best to get the batters out and keep the runs low.

The Most Popular Cricket Events to Bet On

Many cricket events happen all year round across the world. These tournaments attract the attention of fans and provide multiple betting opportunities. Here are some of the top competitions available:

IPL Betting

The Indian Premier League is the most-watched cricket league in the world, and it's also a dream for bettors. You've got daily matches, top international stars, and loads of betting markets to pick from. Popular options are Match Winners, Total Sixes, Top Batters, and Player Props.

Ashes Betting

If you're more into traditional Test cricket, The Ashes is a must. It's the classic rivalry between England and Australia, and every series is packed with drama. Since it's a five-match Test series, it gives you plenty of time to get into pre-match and in-play bets. You can back top run scorers, most wickets, or even session winners.

ICC Betting

ICC tournaments, like the Champions Trophy, Women's Cricket World Cup, World Test Championship Final, or Under-19 World Cup, are where the top international teams go head-to-head. These events might not happen every year, but when they do, the betting action heats up.

T20 World Cup

The T20 World Cup is where international teams battle it out in the shortest, most explosive format of the game. It's perfect for punters who love quick-fire betting with lots of live markets. You can bet on everything from the coin toss to the number of boundaries in an over.

Cricket World Cup

The Cricket World Cup (ODI format) is cricket's biggest global event. It only comes around every four years, so when it does, it's a big deal. Matches are a little longer than T20s but shorter than Tests, so it's a great middle ground for betting.

Big Bash League

Australia's Big Bash League (BBL) is another fast-paced T20 league that's perfect for casual bets. It runs during the Aussie summer, so around December to January, and the games are short, lively, and full of action. You'll find good odds, fun team rivalries, and a lot of the same stars you see in the IPL.

International Tests

Finally, let's not forget international Test cricket. Sure, it's slower and lasts up to five days, but there's still plenty of betting value, especially if you know your cricket. You can bet on things like session scores, who'll get a hundred, or how many wickets will fall in a day.
