Cricket Terms You Should Know
Understand these terms before placing your bets — they’ll help you read the odds with greater confidence.

A batsman who is dismissed and leaves the crease. Losing wickets can drastically change a match’s momentum. Betting on “number of wickets in X overs” is among the most popular in T20 format.
A set of six balls bowled by a single bowler. T20 matches consist of 20 overs per side. Betting on “runs in a specific over” offers more frequent chances during live matches.
