Your cricket betting options at Parimatch are extensive. Bet on England as they tour the world and compete in test series, or back the national team as they play T20 and ODI matches.

Cricket Betting: Formats, Leagues & Series

There are three main forms of cricket: test matches, one-day Internationals (ODIs), and 20-over (T20) games.

You can bet on all formats of the game at Parimatch, whether you’re a fan of attritional test cricket on flat Aussie wickets or prefer watching super attacking innings on spicy wickets on the sub-continent.

For instance, you can bet on the following leagues and series:

International Tests

Bet on all series within the ICC World Test Championship, featuring England, Australia, South Africa, Pakistan, India, and other test-playing nations.

The pinnacle of international test cricket is the Ashes, contested every two years by England and Australia. Many cricketers are judged by their success (or lack of it) in the Ashes, and every series in England and Down Under serves up controversy, drama, and cricket at the highest level.

One-Day Internationals

ODI cricket sees each team bat and field for up to 50 overs each, with the action completed in a single day. It’s a condensed version of a test match and usually delivers more wickets and bigger shots, with players hitting for boundaries.

Countries contest ODI series throughout the year, often after test matches, but you can also bet on major ODI tournaments, such as the World Cup, held every four years.

T20 Cricket

T20 cricket was introduced by the ECB in 2003 as a shorter version of the game, aiming to attract more fans to grounds across the country. They probably didn’t foresee just how big T20 cricket would become, with the introduction of the T20 World Cup and franchise leagues worldwide.

The biggest and most-watched T20 franchise league in the world is the Indian Premier League (IPL), which attracts top test players each year. You can also bet on Australia’s Big Bash League and the SA20 league at Parimatch.

Other Cricket Betting Options

You can also bet on even shorter formats of cricket like The Hundred, which is the UK’s innovative franchise league.

While some cricket purists think it’s bad for the game, The Hundred attracts global cricket stars throughout the British summer, drawing tens of thousands of spectators to Lords, the Oval, and other grounds throughout the UK each week.

Another option at Parimatch is virtual cricket, which allows you to bet on simulated T20 matches when there’s no real cricket being played. Virtual sports betting is becoming increasingly popular, and it means you don’t need to wait for a league or series to begin to get involved in the action.

Cricket Odds & Betting Markets

Now that you know of the cricket leagues covered at Parimatch, it’s time to explore the different betting markets & options open to you:

  • Match betting: Back the team you think will win a test, ODI, or T20 game. For instance, you could bet on England or Australia to win an Ashes test. In cricket, you can also bet on the draw, but it’s unlikely, reflected by the higher odds.
  • Top batter: Bet on the player you think will end the first or second innings as the top batter. For example, back Harry Brook or Joe Root ending an England ODI as the top run scorer.
  • Top bowler: Back the player you think will take the most wickets in a cricket match. You might, for instance, back Jasprit Bumrah to take the most wickets in a test match between India and the West Indies.
  • Totals betting (over/under): You can bet on the total number of runs a specific player will score. For instance, you could bet on Ben Duckett scoring over or under 25.5 runs in England’s first innings in a test match against Sri Lanka.
  • Fours & Sixes betting: Bet on the number of fours and sixes specific players will score in a cricket match. For example, you could bet on Travis Head scoring over 3.5 fours in a match against South Africa.
  • Player of the match: Bet on who you think will win the player of the match award at the end of an ODI, test match, or T20 game.

You can explore the full offering of pre-match betting options before a ball is bowled at Parimatch. Additionally, when the game is underway, explore your in-play betting options to crank up the excitement while watching cricket live.
