Cricket tournaments to bet on
Cricket is a global sport that features an eye-watering number of competitions, covering everything from five-day Test matches to small games with 100-ball innings. Here are the best cricket tournaments to bet on right now:
T20 World Cup betting
The T20 World Cup is one of the biggest international sports tournaments on the planet. England and the West Indies traditionally thrive here, but really, there is nothing to split the top teams every four years. T20 betting doesn’t get bigger than during the World Cup, and Leo Vegas offers hundreds of odds per match.
The Hundred Betting
The Hundred is England’s attempt to revolutionise short-form cricket for a new generation of fans. Betting on The Hundred takes place during August, where you can wager on men’s and women’s cricket. The cricket odds are volatile because there are so few balls available per inning, so every run counts!
The Ashes betting
The Ashes is the biggest Test series on the planet, pitting England against Australia every two years. It’s ripe for cricket betting because the home team rarely loses, yet over the course of 25 days there are plenty of special bets to be placed. Wagering on top bowlers and batters over the Ashes is commonplace.
IPL betting
The biggest club T20 competition on the planet, the Indian Premier League is big business. Betting here focuses on massive run totals and lightning-fast seamers demolishing stumps. The IPL feels like cricket on steroids and betting in-play is a fun way to get closer to the action.
Cricket World Cup betting
The Cricket World Cup acts as a the benchmark for global cricketing nations, with games played in one-day format. It can be a little slow at times, but cricket betting fans can reap the rewards of dead-cert bets in the group stages, where the likes of England, Australia and India often sweep aside lesser nations like Netherlands, Ireland and Scotland.
Cricket betting tips for beginners
There are scores of cricket bets out there for punters to dig into, but that doesn’t mean you need to cover every single wager. If you’re just starting out betting on cricket then check out these below tips to help you get underway:
Start small There’s no point blowing your budget on one bet, and small wagers are the best way to learn the ropes about cricket betting and still have a pot left over to dip into. Small bets on big favourites may not return mega rewards, but they’re more likely to be profitable and can help you develop your knowledge.
Bet on what you know There’s very little value is betting on a team or player you know nothing about. If you love Test cricket then learn the ropes here, before moving on to other formats like one-day cricket or Twenty20. Likewise, if you’re an expert on Indian cricket then stick to these teams, instead of throwing your money at the Big Bash League.
Use stats to your advantage Leo Vegas offers punters use of our extensive live stats bank, which features updated figures from games playing out in real time. These stats are great for spotting trends and can help forge smarter bet choices.
Take your time A Test match can take as long as five day to complete. Even a Hundred match requires a long time to finish. Therefore, there’s no rush to get started here.
Take your time with your bets Make sure you look over your options, and double that you’re comfortable with your wager before hitting Place Bet.
Use over/unders Many new punters ask ‘what is under and over in cricket betting?’. Well, this is where you bet over or under a set line. For example, you might bet on a batter to score under 49.5 runs in a Test match. If they get out for 40, you win your bet. This is a great bet cricket beginners love because it teaches you about player and team totals.
