Two Cricket Concepts to Understand Before You Bet
- Overs and Innings
-
An over consists of 6 balls bowled by a single bowler to the batsman. In T20 format, each team plays one innings with a cap of 20 overs. In ODIs, the limit is 50 overs. Test Matches have no over limit, but each team may bat for two innings.
Example: if you bet "over 6.5 in the first 6 overs", you are predicting that the batting team will score 7 runs or more within the first 6 overs of play.
- Winning Method
-
In cricket, a team can win in several ways — by runs, by wickets remaining, or in a Test Match, the game can also end in a draw. When someone bets on the "match winner", they are picking the team they believe will win at the end of the match, regardless of the winning margin.
Example: in a T20 match, Team A is chasing 165 runs to win. If you bet on Team A to win and they reach the target with 3 balls to spare, your bet is a winner.
