How are cricket odds calculated and read?
A quick guide to understanding odds formats and the most commonly used market types.
How to read cricket odds — a practical example
Say India is playing Australia in a T20 match. The offered odds are: India 1.75, Australia 2.20. This means if you bet RM 100 on India and they win, you receive RM 175 (including your original stake). If you bet RM 100 on Australia and they win, you receive RM 220. Lower odds indicate the market considers that team more likely to win, while higher odds reflect a lower probability but a bigger payout if they come through.
In ball-by-ball betting, the odds shift with every delivery based on current match conditions — runs scored, wickets fallen, and balls remaining. This makes cricket one of the most dynamic sports to follow live.
| Market Types | Brief Description | Standard Format |
|---|---|---|
| Match Winner | Pick the overall winning team | T20, ODI, Test |
| Total Session Runs | Over/under total runs in a session | T20 & ODI |
| Top Run Scorer | Which player scores the most runs | All formats |
| First Wicket to Fall | Bowler or method of the first wicket to fall | T20 & ODI |
Cricket and Malaysian users — why is this sport so popular here?
Understanding cricket's appeal in the local context helps you choose the most relevant markets.
IPL — the most followed league in Malaysia
The Indian Premier League (IPL) is the most widely followed cricket tournament in Malaysia, particularly among the Malaysian Indian community and general cricket fans. Each IPL season runs from April to May, with matches played almost every night at times that suit Malaysian viewers — typically between 7:30 PM and 11:30 PM. Popular franchises like Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings, and Royal Challengers Bangalore have dedicated followings in Malaysia, with fans tuning in live to every match.
ICC World Cup and bilateral matches
Beyond the IPL, Malaysian cricket fans also follow the ICC T20 World Cup and bilateral series involving India, Australia, England, and Pakistan. India vs Pakistan fixtures in particular draw extraordinary interest in Malaysia and are consistently among the most talked-about events. vs96 provides markets for these matches with odds updated in real time, allowing users to follow on-field developments and make betting decisions based on the latest information as the match unfolds.
BBL — Australian cricket for the night owls
Australia's Big Bash League (BBL) runs during the Australian summer — which means matches fall during Malaysian evening hours, roughly 9:00 PM to midnight. The fast-paced, high-quality T20 format makes it an attractive option for Malaysian users who enjoy late-night cricket. BBL markets on vs96 cover match winner, total sixes, and individual player markets, supporting a wide range of betting strategies.
Test Match Format — the choice for die-hard fans
Test cricket spans five days and offers a wider range of markets compared to T20. Users can bet on the outcome of each session (morning, afternoon, evening), the total wickets in a day, or the overall match result. While this format demands more patience, it opens up more opportunities to analyse pitch conditions and make more calculated betting decisions based on weather, pitch state, and the historical head-to-head record between the two sides.
Cricket terms you need to know before you start
Understanding basic cricket terms helps you read the markets with greater confidence and make more informed betting decisions.
- Run
- The basic unit of scoring in cricket. Batters run between the two wickets to score runs, or hit the ball to the boundary for an automatic 4 or 6. The total runs scored underpins most cricket betting markets.
- Wicket
- When a batter is dismissed from the field. In cricket markets, the number of wickets fallen is a key metric — especially in "First Wicket" and "Total Wickets in a Session" markets.
- Over
- An over consists of six balls bowled by a single bowler. A T20 match has 20 overs per side, while an ODI has 50. The "Runs Per Over" (RPO) market calculates the average runs scored in each over.
- Run Handicap
- A system that grants a run advantage or disadvantage to a specific team to balance the market. Example: India -12.5 runs means you need India to win by more than 12 runs for your bet to win.
- Toss
- The coin toss before a match determines which team chooses to bat or bowl first. The "Toss Winner" market is one of the simplest in cricket — with odds close to 50/50.
- DLS (Duckworth-Lewis-Stern)
- A recalculation method used when rain disrupts ODI and T20 matches. When rain causes an interruption, the DLS method is applied to revise the target, which also affects the outcome of live betting markets.
