What cricket can I bet on?
OVERDOG's cricket board spans the three international formats and the big franchise leagues — the same cricket the major books cover, priced as live exchange markets rather than fixed lines.
T20, ODI and Test formats
Cricket is played in three formats, and each shapes its markets. Twenty20 (T20) is the shortest — twenty overs a side, settled in an evening — and drives the deepest betting volume. One Day Internationals (ODIs) give each team fifty overs across a single day. Test cricket is the five-day form, two innings a side, where a match can still end in a draw. The shorter formats swing faster, so their match-winner and totals prices move quickly, while a Test carries the extra draw outcome and multi-day markets.
International cricket and the World Cups
National-team cricket is contested by the twelve ICC full-member nations — India, Australia, England, Pakistan, South Africa, New Zealand, Sri Lanka, West Indies, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Ireland and Zimbabwe. Their headline events are the ICC Cricket World Cup in the ODI format, the T20 World Cup, the World Test Championship and the Champions Trophy, alongside bilateral rivalries like the Ashes between England and Australia. These open series and tournament outright markets; the full winner market for a given event sits on its own futures page, linked from the board.
The IPL and franchise T20 leagues
Franchise T20 is the year-round engine of cricket betting, led by the Indian Premier League (IPL) — cricket's richest league — which carries its own dedicated markets on OVERDOG. Around it sit Australia's Big Bash League, the Pakistan Super League, England's Hundred, South Africa's SA20, the Caribbean Premier League and Major League Cricket in the United States. Each runs match markets through its season plus a title outright for the champion.
Cricket bet types
Here is what you can bet on OVERDOG's cricket board, from the match winner to a series outright — each one a live market priced by the order book, not a fixed bookmaker line.
Match winner
The match-winner market prices which side wins a given game. In limited-overs cricket it settles two ways on the result, but a Test can end in a draw after five days, so in the longer format the market runs three-way — one side, the other, or the draw. It is the staple on every fixture, whether India face Australia or two franchise sides meet in a T20.
Top batsman, top bowler and match props
Player markets center on the standout performers in a single match: top batsman (most runs), top bowler (most wickets), and milestone props such as a batter passing a runs mark or a bowler taking multiple wickets. They settle on the scorecard, independent of the result, and are built around the marquee names in a lineup — the modern heirs to batting greats like Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli, or bowlers in the mould of Shane Warne and Muttiah Muralitharan.
Team totals and team props
Team markets price a side's own output rather than the result. A team-total market asks whether an innings finishes above or below a set runs line; other team props cover the highest opening partnership, the most sixes, or which side wins the toss. Because a full innings can run to a big score, these lines sit higher than in most sports — the current number is on the board above.
Series results and tournament outrights
Beyond a single game, series and outright markets price the bigger question: which nation wins a multi-match series, or who lifts a whole tournament. Series specials also cover the leading run-scorer or wicket-taker across a rubber. Outright winner markets — a World Cup, an IPL title, a World Test Championship — settle when the competition ends, and the full winner market for each sits on its own futures page, linked from the board.
How to bet cricket with crypto on OVERDOG
Betting cricket with crypto on OVERDOG is crypto in, crypto out — the trading in between happens in a dollar-denominated unit:
1. Deposit a supported coin — Bitcoin, Ether, USDT, USDC, SOL or BNB — with no identity check. It converts to Polymarket's US-dollar stable unit on Polygon, about 1:1 with the dollar, the unit every position is priced, traded and settled in.
2. Pick a cricket market from the live board — a match winner, a top-batsman prop, a series outright — and buy shares in the outcome you want at the exchange price. The cost is a flat 1% OVERDOG fee plus Polymarket's own fees, shown together before you commit — no separate bookmaker margin and no promotions.
3. When the market resolves, each winning share redeems for one dollar on-chain, and you withdraw back to crypto. There are no cards or bank transfers.
Betting cricket on Polymarket with OVERDOG
OVERDOG is an access layer to the Polymarket exchange, not a bookmaker. When you bet cricket here, your order routes to Polymarket's real order book — you just get a betting-terminal experience over it, with crypto funding and no account gates.
No vig — real order-book odds
Every cricket outcome trades as a share that settles at one dollar if it happens and zero if it does not, so the price reads directly as the market's implied probability. Because those prices come from an order book rather than a bookmaker's spreadsheet, there is no margin — no vig — baked in. It describes the price only; it never implies a bet will win.
Winners are never limited
There is no house taking the other side of your bet, so there is no book to protect. Betting well never gets your account limited or closed — a structural contrast with sportsbooks, which routinely restrict cricket bettors who win.
No-KYC, your custody
You deposit and withdraw in crypto with no identity check, and you can export your wallet and withdraw anytime — we can't freeze you. Settlement runs on-chain via Polymarket on Polygon, where every resolution is publicly verifiable.
