General Twenty20 Cricket Betting Rules
- Bets placed on Twenty20 Cricket are not inclusive of any ‘Super Over’. Bets are settled on the maximum allotted overs per team (20).
- Any reference to ‘bet’ refers to the entire contents of a Bet betslip. Any reference to a ‘selection’ is in reference to one selection within the related bet. Bet is the aggregate bet compromised of all constituent selections.
- If a player in the bet does not take any part in the match, then the whole bet will be made void, regardless of the rest of the selections within the bet. If the player takes to the pitch, then all player related bets will be settled accordingly as win/loss. ‘Player A to get 1+ Six’ would be a losing selection if he participates in fielding but does not bat. ‘Player B to get 1+ Wicket’ would be a losing selection if he takes any part in the match regardless of whether he bowls. This ruling refers to any player related markets. Please refer to section 2 (Bet Type Settlement Rules) for player related market breakdowns and rulings.
- Any void selection within your bet, will deem the entire bet void.
- If all the selections within the bet are valid (all players involved within the bet take part within the match), any losing selection within the bet will deem the entire bet a losing bet. A winning slip must be comprised of winning selections only.
- For any obvious pricing errors, we reserve the right to cancel/void any bets placed at that wrong price. We also reserve the right to cancel/void any bets on events where the venue is changed after the publication of odds.
- In the event of a batsman retiring for any reason, all relevant batting markets for this batsman will be settled on the runs at the time of their retirement.
- Any markets ending in ‘dead heats’ will be deemed as losers. For example, if you are to bet Player A ‘Top bat for his team’ and both him and Player B are top run scorers on the joint number of runs for their team– this would constitute a loser.
- All ‘Team Runs’ markets will stand independent of the toss result. For example, ‘Over 150 Team A Runs’ is resulted even when Team B bat first and achieve 140 runs.
- All markets will be settled on the result of the match on the day that it is played and completed. Any results that are changed retrospectively will not alter the settlement of the market.
- If a match is postponed before the scheduled start and is subsequently rescheduled to be played less than 24 hours (inclusive) from the originally allotted start time, all bets will stay active and will be settled upon the result of the rescheduled match. If a match is postponed before the original start date/time and is subsequently rescheduled to be played more than 24 hours from the original start time, all bets will be voided.
- Any match where the start date/time has been altered well in advance (e.g. to ease fixture congestion) will not be classNameed as postponed.
- For matches played at a neutral venue, all bets will still count regardless of the order the teams are listed and whether we have indicated it is as being played at a neutral venue (except in the situation of an obvious pricing error, please refer to 1.5).
- In the event of a batsman retiring for any reason, all relevant batting markets for this batsman will be settled on the runs at the time of their retirement.
