Cricket

Cricket is the most popular sport in India. Besides the biggest league, IPL, the national team’s T20, ODI, and Test matches, as well as regional leagues, are also highly celebrated.
Betting on matches adds to the excitement of watching the game. This article will guide you step by step on how to bet on cricket.
Betting on cricket involves placing wagers on various aspects of a cricket match. This can include predicting the outcome of the match, the performance of individual players, the number of runs scored, and many other elements. People place bets through bookmakers or online betting platforms, and the odds are determined based on the likelihood of different outcomes.
If you're looking to get started with cricket betting, the first step is to understand the platform you're using. Choose a reliable and secure site that offers a wide range of betting options, transparent payment methods, and strong security measures.
In this guide, we’ll walk you through the process using Vegas11, a favorite platform among Indian players, with both visual and text instructions to make it easy to follow.
Joining a reliable and well-reviewed online betting site and registering an account is the first step. You will need to provide basic information (such as name, date of birth, nationality, phone number, and email), verify via SMS or email, and then set a password.
After registration, the next step is to add a bank account, as the platform won't be able to transfer funds to your account without it. Some platforms may also require identity verification before proceeding

As shown in the image, find your preferred betting type, click on the "Odds" (2.47), then enter your bet amount of ₹50 to place the bet.
Once a sports bet is successfully placed, it cannot be canceled or modified.
Yes, you can. If you bet on the wrong team, it’s usually recommended to place the same amount of bet on the opposing team to offset the match! (This may result in a small loss due to the odds difference).
Winnings are usually distributed within 30 minutes after the match ends. If they haven’t been credited, please contact the casino’s customer service.
Unless you specifically bet on a draw, all other bets will be considered "lost" and will not be refunded.
There are two common reasons:
1. Not every match is available for pre-match betting (it depends on the oddsmaker).
2. The oddsmaker is adjusting the odds, which temporarily disables the betting options for that match. You can place a bet once the adjustments are complete, typically within 5-10 minutes.
Cricket Odds are Displayed in 3 Formats: Decimal, American, and Fractional. The most common format in India is "Decimal".
Decimal Odds also known as European Odds, are displayed as decimals and include the stake.
For example, if the odds are 2.11 and you bet ₹100 on Gulf Giants, you would receive ₹211 if the bet wins (with a net profit of ₹111).
American Odds are displayed as "positive" and "negative" numbers. Positive numbers indicate the net profit for a ₹100 bet, while negative numbers show how much you need to bet in order to win ₹100.
Fractional Odds, also known as "British odds" are typically displayed in the "X/Y" format. When you bet Y units, you can win X units in profit.
Typically, the higher the odds, the lower the probability, meaning the likelihood of the event happening is smaller. However, if you win, you can earn a higher payout. In cricket, a draw is almost impossible, so the odds for betting on a draw are usually higher than for betting on either team to win.
Here’s how to calculate payouts using common decimal odds for beginners:
Multiply the odds of each cricket match in the parlay to calculate the total odds. Then, multiply the total odds by the bet amount to determine the potential payout.
Example: Parlay bet on 3 matches
2.58 × 2.22 × 2.95 = 16.89x. a ₹100 bet would give you ₹1,689.
It’s recommended for beginners to start with 2-4 leg parlays to reduce the risk of losing money.
If each match has a 50% win probability, a 2-leg parlay has a 25% chance of winning, a 3-leg parlay has a 12.5% chance, a 4-leg parlay has a 6.25% chance, and a 5-leg parlay has a 3% chance.
Yes, it’s called a mixed parlay, where you can combine events from different sports such as cricket, football, badminton, and more into one parlay bet.
No, you need all events in the parlay to win in order to make money.
Most sportsbooks allow up to 15 legs in a parlay.
On Vegas11, the minimum bet for a parlay is ₹53.
After the match ends, the winning amount will be added directly to your account balance. You can then request a withdrawal, and the funds should be received within about 5-10 minutes.
If a withdrawal fails, it’s likely that the accumulated "valid betting amount" in your account hasn’t met the platform's requirements. You can directly contact Vegas11's 24/7 customer support for assistance.
Most Cricket Betting sites do not charge a withdrawal fee for bank withdrawals, and there is no limit on the number of withdrawals. However, for USDT withdrawals, exchanges may charge a 1% - 2% transaction fee, which is not imposed by the casino.
Most Cricket Betting sites in India have a minimum withdrawal amount of ₹1000.
Withdrawal times vary by betting site. Typically, funds are received within 5 to 15 minutes, but some casinos may take up to 24 hours.
It is recommended to choose reputable casinos with high brand recognition, operating for over 5 years in India, and with positive reviews for the safest gaming experience.
