Cricket, like it was in many places around the world, was introduced to Canada by the British, and it became so popular that it was declared the country’s national sport – it was then overtaken by the likes of ice hockey.

Nowadays, though, it is one of Canada’s fastest-growing sports, with more than 40,000 cricketers across the country. Not only do Canadians like to play cricket, but we also like to partake in cricket betting online.

In this guide, we will tell you all that you need to know about betting on cricket ranging from the different markets to the different tournaments to top betting tips for online betting on sports.

How Does Cricket Betting Work?

Online cricket betting works in the same way that betting online on any other sport does – you need an account with a sportsbook.

Thankfully, when it comes to Betiton Canada, opening an account with us is as easy as 1-2-3 – well, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 – as we can seen from the step-by-step guide below.

  1. Click “Sign Up” on our homepage.
  2. Enter your email address and then pick a unique username and strong password.
  3. Provide some other personal data such as your name and surname, date of birth, house address, and mobile number.
  4. Click “Create Account” and you’ll have yourself a new Betiton Canada account.
  5. Go to the “Banking” page and select a deposit method. Follow the instructions, and your money will be available to use for online cricket betting.

Cricket Betting Odds 

You will find three different odds formats at all of the best sports betting sites, and these are decimal, fractional, and American. At Betiton Canada, you can toggle between all three to pick your preference, but decimal is the default while betting here.

If you are new to betting in cricket online, then we recommend that you stick to the decimal format as it is the simplest to come to terms with.

With regard to the decimal odds format, the number tells you the total payout for a winning bet and not what your total potential profit could be. In other words, your stake will be include, so calculating your total payout is easier.

For example, if you bet $10 on a market with odds of 4.00 and it goes on to win, you will get $40 back, which is your $10 stake and $30 of profit.

Cricket Betting Markets

One of the main reasons why Canadians love making use of cricket betting lines is the fact that there is plenty of variation.

You will not find many sports out there that will allow you to bet on basically every aspect of the sport, but you can in cricket. Let us now take a look at some of the most popular cricket betting markets.

  • Match winner – You simply have to try and predict the team which will go on and win the game.
  • Series winner – If you do not feel like betting on just one match, you can opt to predict which team will win the series.
  • Top batsman – Pick the batter that you believe will go on and score the most runs when their team is batting.
  • Top bowler – Pick the bowler that you think will pick up the most wickets when their team is bowling.
  • Player of the match – Try to predict the player that will perform better than anyone else on the field.
  • Total runs scored – You will be given a number, such as 300.5, and then you need to predict whether the final number of runs scored will be over or under that total.
  • Toss winner – In cricket, a coin toss is done to determine the team that bats and bowls first, and there is the option of betting on this 50/50 outcome.
  • Mode of dismissal – A batsman can be dismissed LBW, caught, stumped, run-out, hit-wicket and other, and you can try to predict how the next batter to get out will be dismissed.
  • To score a century – You can put money on whether a particular player will go on to score a century or not.
  • First over runs – Try to predict the number of runs that a team will score in the match’s first over.

Betiton Canada Cricket Betting Tips

Now that we have given you some top markets for cricket betting Canada, we are now going to take a look at some top cricket betting tips that you should always keep in mind when you are betting on this fun sport.

  • Look at form: It is wise to always check out a team’s form because it is a great indicator of how they might perform in the match. If a team has lost five matches in a row, it is not the best idea to bet on them.
  • Know the key players: You need to know who the key players are for a team that you are thinking about placing a bet on, so you know when a team is missing its best players. If a number of key players are absent, it is not wise to place a bet.
  • Consider the weather: The weather can play a huge part in a cricket match, so have a look at the forecast before you place any bets. Sunny conditions are great for batters, while fast bowlers prefer overcast conditions.
  • Think about live betting: Sometimes it is a good idea to wait for a match to start before you start betting since this provides a better idea as to how the action might unfold.
