For example after the 2nd game of the series you can bet on six possible outcomes: 1-0, 2-0, 0-1, 0-2, 0-0, 1-1. Series Score – Betting on the correct score of Test Series matches. Point Spread – A handicap, also known as head start, with which a stronger team is expected to defeat a weaker one. Over/Under – A bet on whether the combined total of the points/goals/runs scored by the two teams will be more or less than a specified number by the betting provider. If both teams create the same number of run-outs whilst fielding the winning bet is X. Most Run-Outs – The team which creates the most run-outs whilst fielding is the winner in this market. Most Match Sixes – Punters choose which of the two teams will hit the most sixes (a shot which passes over or touches the boundary without having bounced or rolled).

The favourite to win the match always has lower odds for its opening partnership. Highest Opening Partnership – The team which fields the opening partnership with the highest total of runs is the winner in this market. Usually done to safeguard the bet and to cut losses in case the original bet is lost. Hedging – Placing wagers on the opposite side. For example, betting on the outcomes and winners of Twenty20 Big Bash 2017-2018. If the game ends in a draw single bets on the match will be refunded whereas all up bets (accumulator tickets) remain valid at the odds of 1.00.įutures – Wagers placed on an event occurring in the future. There are only two possible outcomes in this market (1 or 2). For example, if there are two batsmen with the same number of runs, dead heat rules apply and the bet is worth half the original stake.ĭraw no Bet – A market only given by the betting provider when there is the possibility of a draw (Test Series). The odds that a player will score 50 or a 100 runs in a match are the highest for Twenty20 matches, reasonably high for One Day matches and expectedly low for Test matches.īatsman Matches – A market in which imaginary duels are formed by the betting provider and the batsman with the highest total number of runs is the winner of the duel.ĭead Heat – A situation in which there are two or more winners in a betting event. The two possible bets are Yes and No.Ī Fifty or a Hundred to Be Scored in the Match – Again two markets, however, unlike the previous two, these take the whole match into consideration. These bets are usually offered only for the longest version of cricket matches – Test matches.
