 Cricket Betting Apps

No 1 – bet365 App

Amongst the apps listed here, the bet365 app marks itself out for a couple of key reasons in our opinion. Firstly, the user-friendly interface includes a huge array of different betting options in terms of market type and tournaments/events, which are available to the customer by virtue of just a couple of clicks.

Get the app here

We loved that bet365 offers cricket as one of their live streaming sports (Geo-restrictions apply), so we could watch the action live straight from our mobile phone, tablet or desktop computer. All we needed was a funded account or to have a placed a bet within the last 24 hours with bet365 and various cricket fixtures became available to us to bet and watch (from within the UK).

No 2 – Paddy Power app

Next on our list comes the Paddy Power Sports app, which offers a multitude of different betting options across a huge number of matches and tournaments.

As well as this, what set this app apart from the lower-ranked best cricket betting apps are the occasional special offers which the app provides related to specific events. For example, during the World T20 tournament, the app offered a money-back if a match went to the final ball.

No 3 – Betfair app

The Betfair app jumps ahead of many others we have reviewed for a number of reasons. Firstly, there are a vast variety of markets to bet on. Secondly, the app provides odds on;

• Test matches
• International Twenty20 matches
• The Ashes,
• The ICC Cricket World cup

Plus many, many more cricket competitions.

The only downfall to the Betfair app is that there are a lot of areas where this app is unavailable. If you can access the app we would recommend it.

New customers are also well rewarded with Betfair, There is always an offer available to entice you in.

ESPN Cricket

Worldwide sports company ESPN has a top-quality cricket app that is free to download around the world.

The thing we really liked about the ESPNcricinfo app was the ability to set your favourite teams to follow. This tailors the app to your personal choices and pulls up the information you really want to see first.

It also has all the quality features you would expect with the latest cricket news and interviews alongside live push scores.

The only downside to the app is the adverts which can be a little annoying and there is no premium or ad-free option that we would prefer to see.

The official IPL app is our go-to place for all the IPL news you need. It is updated all year round to keep you posted on the latest developments and possible transfer stories.

The app has loads of features on top of the usual scores and news, you can also buy tickets for the matches on the app.

When you first think of cricket betting you may just think of betting on the team to win the match, but there are far more betting markets than that on offer. For the major tournaments like the IPL or the test series, there’s a wide range of markets on offer. Why not mix your betting up and find the one that suits you?

Here’s our guide to Cricket betting!

Match result/ winner – The standard market of who will win the match or if it will be a draw. These can be combined as in multiple bets or accumulators.

1st wicket method betting – How will the first batsman fall? Select from

• Caught
• Bowled
• LBW
• Run Out
• Stumped
• Others (this is usually 100/1 plus and would need to be a very strange event like the player knocking the ball away from the stumps with their hand).

A fifty scored in the match? This is one more for the 20/20 games and is a yes/ no betting event. To win you need 1 player from either team to get a 50. As soon as that happens your bet should settle and your winning be paid out.

A hundred scored in the match – As above for any player to get a century.

Over-under betting markets – We’ve covered all the markets in here as there’s a few of them. In simple terms, the bookmaker sets a number of runs and you bet if the team will go over or under that amount.

Over/ under cricket betting markets available

• Total Match Runs
• Individual Teams
• 1st/ 2nd innings
• Highest individual score

Top bowler for each team – Who will be the top-performing bowler on the team? The odds will be shorter for the most likely bowlers.

Most runouts – Which team will have the most run-outs in a match or will it be a tie.

Highest team first 6 overs (T20) – Who will get the most runs at the end of the first 6 overs.

Highest opening partnership – Who will score the most runs before the first wicket falls. This is on a team basis rather than an individual and there is an option for a tie.

Man of the match – Who will win the Man of the Match prize, mainly open for T20 betting and other major events and tournaments.
