Five Ways to Look at Cricket on This Platform
Each sub-category offers a distinct betting experience.
Cricket's most classic match format, lasting up to five days. Betting markets for Test matches cover match winners, runs scored per session, and individual player performance.
The fastest format with just 20 overs per side, making it hugely popular for live betting. Tournaments like the IPL and International T20s offer dozens of markets per match with rapid score updates.
The 50-over format strikes a balance between the longer and shorter formats. ODIs suit players who want to follow a complete match within a single day, with varied betting opportunities throughout the game.
Matches involving teams such as India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan receive special attention. Clashes between these Asian sides consistently attract the highest number of betting markets in the annual cricket calendar.
348's live betting feature lets you place bets while a match is in progress. Odds shift in real time based on developments such as wicket falls, weather conditions, or changes in match momentum.
How to Read Cricket Odds
Cricket betting odds on the 348 platform are displayed in decimal format. For example, if the odds for India winning a particular T20 match are 1.75, meaning every RM 100 you stake will return a net profit of RM 75 if your bet wins (total payout: RM 175).
Lower odds like 1.30 indicate a team is considered a strong favourite with a higher chance of winning. Conversely, higher odds like 3.50 reflect an underdog — less likely to win, but offering greater potential returns if they do.
It's important to understand that odds are not a guarantee of outcome — they simply reflect the current market assessment.

Key Terms in Cricket & Betting
Wicket
Refers to a batter who has been dismissed from the game. The number of wickets fallen has a significant impact on match momentum and live betting odds.
Over
An over consists of six balls bowled by a single bowler. In T20 format, each team plays 20 overs, while ODIs use 50 overs per side.
Asian Handicap (Cricket)
A market that gives an advantage in runs to the underdog team, levelling the playing field between two sides of significantly different strengths.
DLS (Duckworth-Lewis-Stern)
A method for recalculating the target run score when a match is interrupted by rain or poor ground conditions. It affects the final result and can alter any active bets.
Live Betting (In-Play)
Bets placed while a match is in progress. Odds shift dynamically based on the latest developments, such as wickets falling or a rapid run scoring spree.
Return
The total amount received if your bet wins, including your original stake. Return = Stake × Odds. Example: RM 50 × 2.00 = RM 100 return (net profit RM 50).
Cricket in Malaysia: A Growing Community
