Cricket betting tips

Wait for the toss

At dew-heavy evening venues the side chasing wins more often, and the match price shifts the moment the toss result is known. If you have a view, it is often cheaper to take it after the toss than before.

Know the venue par

A 180 at Chinnaswamy and a 180 at Chepauk are different scores. Check what first innings totals have looked like at the ground this season before you take a session line.

Sessions move on wickets

Two quick wickets can drop a 20-over line by 15 runs or more. If you trade sessions, keep an eye on who is walking in next as well as the run rate.

Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

5 questions

What is session betting in cricket?

Session betting is an over/under market on the runs a team will score by a set point in the innings, usually after 6, 10, 15 or 20 overs. You take a Yes (over) or No (under) position on the line, and the bet settles as soon as that over ends.

Can I bet on the IPL ball by ball?

Yes. Match odds, session lines and fancy markets such as runs off the next over stay open through each innings of every IPL match, so you can open and close positions while the game is on.

Do you offer back and lay betting on cricket?

Yes. Every cricket match has back and lay prices on both sides, so you can bet on a team to win or against it, and trade out of a position before the result is known.

How quickly do cricket bets settle?

Session and fancy markets settle as the relevant over or event finishes. Match odds settle shortly after the last ball, and your winnings can then be withdrawn by UPI.

Are Test matches covered?

Yes. Test matches have match odds including the draw, session lines, innings totals and player markets across all five days.
