Cricket betting at 111 bad — all formats from BPL to T20 World Cup
Get closer to Bangladesh's favourite sport. Bet on cricket, football and more at 111 bad — with live markets, straightforward odds and fast payments.
Cricket's three formats and popular tournaments
Cricket is Bangladesh's most talked-about sport. From thousands of fans packed into stadiums to people gathered around a TV at a tea stall in Dhaka — everyone has a special place in their heart for the Bangladesh Tigers. At 111 bad, you can follow that passion even more closely through betting.
Cricket's three main formats — T20, ODI and Test — each have their own pace and character. T20 is the fastest, wrapping up in just three to four hours. Odds shift quickly and every ball carries tension. ODIs are mid-length — strategy and consistency matter more in a 50-over game. Test cricket is a five-day contest — far more variable and distinctly appealing for longer-term markets.
On the tournament side, the BPL is Bangladesh's own T20 league and is especially popular with local fans. The IPL and ICC T20 World Cup also come with a wide range of betting markets. International bilateral series — and tournaments like the Asia Cup in particular — keep bettors engaged throughout the year.
Betting on football and other sports
Alongside cricket, 111 bad also offers football betting. The big global leagues — English Premier League, La Liga, Champions League — all have a wide variety of markets available. In football, a draw is a normal outcome, so the match winner market has three options: home team, away team, and draw. In limited-overs cricket there is no draw, so the market is simpler.
In football you can also bet on the number of goals, the half-time score, or the performance of a specific player. These markets are structured a little differently from cricket, but the core idea is the same — you place a bet on the outcome you think will happen.

Popular cricket betting markets
Match Winner
Answer the simple question of which team will win the match. In a T20, if you pick Team A and they win, your bet is successful — this is the most familiar market.
Toss Winner
Place your bet on the toss result before the match begins. Team A or Team B — who will win the toss? It is a small but quick-decision market.
Top Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs for their team? This market lets you single out the best performer in a side and bet on them individually.
Total Runs Over/Under
Will the total runs in a match be above or below a set number? For example: will Team A score more than 170 runs in their innings? Pitch and weather analysis come in useful here.
First Wicket to Fall
After how many runs will the first wicket fall? A quick and uncertain market right at the start of an innings — the bet is simply whether it happens before or after a certain run mark.
Multi Bet
Combine multiple selections into a multi bet. If you bet on three separate matches, all three must win — lose one and the entire bet is lost, but the potential return is much higher.
Handicap and other special markets
In a handicap market, the weaker team is given a virtual run advantage — this brings the odds for both teams closer together. For example: if Team A starts with a 20-run handicap, a bet on Team A only wins if they win the actual match by more than 20 runs. These special markets are more commonly available in big matches.
A simple way to understand odds
Odds can look confusing at first, but the core idea is simple. The same value is written in three formats — decimal, fractional and American.
The same odds in three formats (Team A to win, bet ৳200):
| Format | Value | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | Total return = bet × 2.25 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | ৳5 profit for every ৳4 staked |
| American | +125 | ৳125 profit on a ৳100 bet |
With a ৳200 bet: if you win, ৳450 comes back (৳250 profit + your original ৳200 stake). If you lose, the full ৳200 is gone.
The favourite's odds are generally lower. If Team B is the favourite, their odds might be 1.80 in decimal, 4/5 in fractional, and -125 in American. American minus odds show how much you need to bet to win ৳100. With a ৳200 bet, total return would be ৳360 (৳160 profit).
The higher the odds number, the less likely the betting platform considers that outcome to be — and the higher the potential return. Remember, betting is for entertainment — not a reliable source of income.
Live in-play betting — while the match is on
In-play or live betting means you can place bets after the match has started — odds change ball by ball. As soon as a wicket falls, the batting team's odds lengthen; after a big six, the odds can shorten again.
Say Team A has made a strong start with 50 runs in 5 overs — Team A's odds to win will shorten because they are ahead. On the other hand, if Team A quickly loses 3 wickets, Team B's odds will improve. This shifting situation is what makes live betting different.
You can place bets for the next session after an over ends or after a big turning point. The run rate is higher in the powerplay, wickets tend to fall more in the middle overs, and everything can change in the last 5 overs — each phase has its own markets.
- Base your decisions on the scorecard and pitch report — not on guesswork.
- Odds move fast in live markets — take a moment to think before making a decision.
- If you are placing multiple bets in one match, set your budget in advance.
Multi bet — multiple selections combined
In a multi bet, you combine selections from several separate events. The odds for each selection are multiplied together, so the overall odds increase significantly. Example: if three selections across three matches have odds of 1.40, 1.50 and 1.60, the combined odds are 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.60 = 3.36 (approximately). A ৳100 bet would return ৳336 — but the condition is that all three selections must be correct. If one loses, the entire ৳100 is gone.
A multi bet can deliver a higher return, but the risk is also higher. It is one way to enjoy betting — remember that as each individual selection becomes less certain, the combined chance of all of them being correct goes down too.
For those who want to explore beyond cricket, 111 bad offers betting options across various sports through 111 bad Bet.
Some useful tips for newcomers
- Start with one format. Starting with T20 means results come quickly and the markets are easier to follow.
- Set your budget first. Decide how much you are willing to bet and do not go beyond that limit.
- Get comfortable with simple markets. Start with match winner or toss, then move on to other markets gradually.
- Check the pitch and conditions. A batting pitch tends to produce higher scores; a pace-friendly pitch tends to produce more wickets.
- No rushing in live betting. In in-play betting, pause and think rather than making quick decisions driven by emotion.
- Treat it as entertainment. Betting is for enjoyment — not a reliable source of income. Read the responsible gaming guidelines.
