Cricket Betting at hehe555 — the best experience on T20, ODI and Test matches
From BPL to IPL, T20 World Cup to international Tests — hehe555 has cricket betting for every format in one place. This guide walks you through everything from reading odds to live betting.
The three cricket formats and how they differ for betting
To understand cricket betting, you first need to know the formats. The style of play differs across each format, so the betting markets vary somewhat as well.
T20
This is the fastest format, with 20 overs per side. BPL and IPL are played in this format. Wickets, sixes and run rates change rapidly — making it the most active format for live betting.
One Day International
This 50-over format blends strategy with patience. Most major ICC tournament matches are ODIs. Total runs and top batsman markets are especially popular here.
Test Cricket
This five-day format has three possible results — win, loss or draw. Because the draw option is included in betting markets, the odds calculation works differently.
BPL, IPL and international cricket
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) generates huge interest among cricket fans every season. The Tigers' international series, the ICC T20 World Cup and IPL — these three tournaments bring the most markets to hehe555's betting calendar.
Just as football betting has markets like number of goals or match winner, cricket offers more detailed markets such as runs per over, time of wicket fall or partnership runs. hehe555's basketball betting also has similarly detailed markets.
A quick introduction to popular betting markets
hehe555 offers bets across a range of cricket markets. Here is a brief description of seven familiar markets.
Match Winner
A direct bet on which team will win the match. Example: if Team A wins, your bet is successful; if Team B wins, the bet is lost.
Toss Winner
Which team will win the toss before the match starts — the result of this market is known within seconds.
Top Batsman
Which player will score the most runs in an innings. The batting lineup and pitch type are important factors here.
Total Runs — Over/Under
Example: "Will there be more than 320 runs?" — you predict whether the total will go above or below a set number.
Top Bowler
Which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. On pace-friendly pitches, fast bowlers tend to have a better chance.
First Wicket Partnership
How many runs the two openers score together before the first wicket falls — you bet on whether that total goes over or under a set number.
Multi Bet
Multiple selections are combined into one bet. For example: one bet across three different match results — you need all selections to be correct to receive a return.
How to read odds — three formats
The odds for the same match can be written in three different formats. Once you understand each one, any format is easy to read.
| Format | Odds for Team A to win | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | Total return including stake. A ৳1,000 bet returns a total of ৳2,500 if you win (৳1,500 profit + ৳1,000 stake). |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳3 profit for every ৳2 staked. ৳1,500 profit on a ৳1,000 bet. |
| American | +150 | The plus sign means — how much profit on a ৳100 bet. +150 means ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet. |
Example 1 — The Same Odds in Three Formats
Place a ৳1,000 bet on Team A to win. Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150 — three different ways of writing it, same meaning. If you win, you get a total of ৳2,500 back (৳1,500 profit + ৳1,000 stake). If you lose, you lose ৳1,000.
Example 2 — Favourite's Odds
If Team B is the favourite, their odds would be Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200. American minus odds mean — how much you need to bet to win ৳100 (-200 means you need to stake ৳200). A ৳1,000 bet returns a total of ৳1,500 if you win (৳500 profit).
Multi bet calculation
When three selections are combined, the odds are multiplied.
Decimal 1.40 × 1.50 × 1.60 = 3.36 (approximately)
A ৳100 bet returns ৳336 if you win — but if any one of the three selections loses, the entire bet is lost.
When a wicket falls, odds change instantly
Live betting lets you place bets while a match is in progress. In cricket this is especially engaging because every over, every wicket can completely change the situation.
For example: at the start of a match, Team A's decimal odds were 2.50. After two wickets fall in quick succession in the fifth over, their odds could move up to 3.80. These moments make live betting a more involving experience for cricket fans.
The end of a powerplay, a big partnership building, a rain stoppage — in each of these situations the market odds are recalculated. This is why cricket live betting adds an extra dimension to watching the match.
Football and other sports betting
Alongside cricket, hehe555 also offers football betting. In football, a match generally has three possible results — home win, away win or draw. In ODI and T20 cricket there is no draw (one team always wins), so the odds structure is different.
Football has markets for number of goals and whether both teams score. Because the run range in cricket is much wider, there are more over/under markets and live betting is even more active.
In fast-paced sports like basketball, quarter-by-quarter betting is popular. See these markets in detail on hehe555's basketball betting page.
Some practical tips for cricket betting
Betting is part of the entertainment — keeping that in mind and playing in an organised way makes the experience more enjoyable.
Understand the format before choosing a market
Over-by-over markets in T20 and session betting in Test cricket work differently. Start with the format you know best.
Focus on one type of market
Once you are comfortable with the match winner market, move to other markets gradually. It is better not to place bets across all markets at once.
Set your budget in advance
Decide on a fixed amount for each session and stay within that limit.
No rushing in live betting
Odds shift quickly after a wicket falls. Before placing a live bet, pause for a moment and take stock of the situation.
Keep fewer selections in a multi bet
Adding more selections increases the total odds, but if any one selection is wrong you lose everything. It is better to keep a multi bet to 2–3 selections.
Enjoy it as entertainment
Betting is always meant to be enjoyable. If it starts causing financial stress, take a break and read the responsible gaming guidelines if needed.
