🏏 Cricket Betting Rules

Limited overs matches (General). For limited overs markets (T20, 1-Day, The Hundred and other single-innings competitions) markets shall stand only where at least 80% of the originally scheduled overs in the relevant innings (or per team where market is team-specific) have been bowled, unless settlement has already been determined prior to the reduction. If an innings is shortened to less than 80% of the originally scheduled overs, the affected markets (see market-specific rules below) will be void unless otherwise stated. Runs, fours, sixes and wickets scored in Super Overs do not count for settlement of statistical markets.
​

First Class / Test matches (Innings). For innings-level markets in First Class and Test matches (e.g., Innings Runs, Innings Fours, Innings Sixes, Innings Wickets), at least 60 overs must be bowled in the named innings unless the named team is all out or declares (in which case the innings is deemed complete).
​

First Class / Test matches (Match-level). For match-level markets in First Class/Test matches (e.g., Match Total Runs, Most Fours in Match, Most Sixes in Match), at least 200 overs must be bowled in the match in order for bets to stand, unless settlement has already been determined.
​

Player-specific markets. For player-specific markets, Pre-Match or Post-match, in limited-overs matches (Top Batsman / Top Bowler), at least 40% of the originally allotted overs in that team’s innings must be bowled for bets to stand, unless the team is all out or reaches its target before this amount, or settlement has already been determined. Players must be in the starting XI (or a permitted concussion replacement/impact player) for bets to stand.
​

Extras and Penalty runs. Extras (wides, no-balls, byes, leg-byes) and penalty runs will be included in the final totals only if they have been officially attributed to the score at the time the innings is deemed complete. Extras or penalty runs added retrospectively after the official close of the innings will not be included for settlement. Certain markets (where explicitly stated) exclude penalty runs — those exclusions remain effective.
​

Bets placed after curtailed innings / after final delivery. In the event of a curtailed innings, any bets placed after the final delivery of the curtailed innings has been bowled will be void. For clarity, bets struck before the final delivery that already achieved settlement are treated according to whether they have already won or lost.
​

Other market-specific rules. Markets that require specific portions of play (first over, first session, highest in x overs, etc.) will only stand where the required delivery/session/overs have been bowled in their entirety unless settlement has already been determined. For example, where a market requires the first over to be completed, both sides must have their first overs bowled in their entirety (subject to the market’s own 20% session exceptions where applicable).
​

Retired batsman – in the event of a batsman retiring for any reason, all relevant batting markets for the batsman will be settled on his or her runs scored at the time of their retirement (as if they had been dismissed by the fielding team).

2. Total team runs – all team total run markets stand regardless of the outcome of the toss. For example, in a Twenty20 match, ‘Team A to score 150+ runs’ is settled (as a loser) even when Team B bats first and scores a total of 140 runs.

3. Who will be top scorer/bat for their team/in the match? – Any ties or

dead heats in these markets will be settled as losing selections. If an unquoted/unpriced player is the top scorer, all selections in these markets will be settled as losers.

4. Who will take a wicket? – These markets concern bowlers taking wickets. Run outs will not be classified as wickets for either the relevant bowler or for the player who ran the batsman out. ‘Mankad’ run outs, whereby the bowler runs out the non-striking batsman prior to a delivery, do not count as wickets for the bowler.

5. Who will hit a four/six? – A four or six is any individual ball which the batsman scores four or six runs from, whether via boundaries or by running between the wickets. These runs must be attributed to the batsman (i.e. extras are not included).

6. A hat-trick to be taken in a match – A hat-trick is defined as a bowler successfully dismissing three batsmen with consecutive deliveries (with run outs not counting as dismissals for this purpose). The deliveries may be separated across different overs from the same bowler (e.g. wickets on the 5th and 6th balls of a bowler’s over, and another on the 1st ball of his very next over), but must be three consecutive deliveries by the same player.

If every selection within a bet builder on the game is already a winner where the fact of abandonment had no impact on the outcome of each selection, will be treated as a winner. For example, a 2-leg bet builder containing an over total runs selection and a certain player to hit a six, where that runs total has been reached and the player in question did hit a six before the game was subsequently abandoned, will be treated as a winner. In this case, the abandonment had no impact on either selection. The same would not apply to an under total runs selection where a game is abandoned while the total score is still under the chosen number, as the abandonment would impact that outcome.
​

If a single selection of an bet builder has lost and a match is then abandoned, the bet builder will be treated as a loser, where regardless of the fact of abandonment, the selection(s) in question had been irrevocably concluded. For example, a bet builder including a team to win the toss selection, where the other team won it and the match was subsequently then abandoned, will be treated as a loser. In this case, the bet had already lost, and this outcome could not be affected in any way by whether the game was subsequently abandoned or not.
​
3. If there are no losing selections within a bet builder and at least one void selection at the
time of a match abandonment, the bet builder will be treated as void.
​
4. The parameters for betslips in abandoned matches also apply to matches where total overs are reduced (refer to Reduced/Limited Overs). As such, at the time of confirmation of the reduction, bets where every selection has already won or at least one selection has irrevocably lost will be resulted as winners or losers respectively, and all other bets will be voided.
