ICC 50-Over Cricket World Cup bet types

Australian cricket bookmakers have got many different bet types available on the ICC 50 over World Cup, with these ranging from futures markets, right through to match-day odds.

Some of the key bet types for the 2025 50 Over World Cup include:

• Match Winner: Bet on which team will win a 50 Over World Cup match. For instance you could bet on Australia to defeat England.
• World Cup Tournament Winner: Predict which team will win the entire World Cup. This type of World Cup bet is available well in advance of the tournament kicking off.
• Top Batsman: Bet on which batsman will score the most runs in a World Cup match or throughout the tournament. Betting on the leading run-scorer in the ICC World Cup can be a lucrative bet type, with the market often wide open. So if you think you have a player primed to perform in Indian conditions, a small wager can net you a big windfall. 

• Top Bowler: Wager on which bowler will take the most wickets in a particular match or the entire World Cup. With the 2023 World Cup taking place in India, the spinners are expected to be prominent.
• Man of the Match: Bet on which player will be awarded the “Man of the Match.” We like taking all-rounders in this market, because they get two chances at shining.
• Total Runs: Wagering on the total number of runs scored in a match, either by a team or overall. This can often be an over/under market. You need to understand the conditions and the game to succeed with this bet regularly.
• Total Wickets: Predicting how many wickets will be taken in a game.
• Number of Boundaries: Bet on the total number of boundaries (fours or sixes) in a match. We have even seen Australian Cricket World Cup betting sites feature this market for the entire tournament.
• Head-to-Head Player Performance: Wager on individual matchups, such as which of two batsmen will score more runs or which of two bowlers will take more wickets. This Cricket World Cup bet types is regularly found at Aussie World Cup bookmakers.
• Highest Opening Partnership: Bet on which team will have the highest-scoring opening partnership.
• Method of First Wicket: Predicting how the first wicket will fall, e.g., caught, bowled, run out, etc.
• Total Sixes/Fours: Wagering on the total number of sixes or fours hit during a match.
• Team to Hit Most Sixes: Betting on which team will hit the most sixes in a match. Some bookmakers with World Cup betting promotions will even run a promo surrounding the team which will hit most sixes for the tournament. The red hot poms are hard to overlook in this category, given the amount of big hitters they have in the ranks.
• Player Milestones: Bets related to specific player achievements, like whether a batsman will score a century or a bowler will take a five-wicket haul.
• Over/Under Bets: Predicting whether a specific event (like total runs or wickets) will be over or under a predetermined number.
• Live/In-Play Bets: Betting on various aspects of the game while it’s in progress. Because of Australian laws, live bets can only be placed via telephone, although several bookies have enacted a click and call function which allows you to queue up your bet before confirming via phone.

1983	In a stunning upset at Lord’s, India beat West Indies by 43 runs. India’s modest 183 seemed easy, but Kapil Dev’s catch to dismiss Vivian Richards turned the tide. India’s disciplined bowling secured the victory.
