Cricket

1) General Cricket Rules

1. An innings is deemed to have reached its natural conclusion if the team is all out, has declared or has won the match. If the original amount of scheduled overs has been reduced (as a result of weather conditions or for any other reason), this innings cannot be deemed to have reached its natural conclusion.
2. Unless otherwise stated, batsman markets are based on runs scored, and bowler markets are based on wickets taken. If a batsman does not complete their innings (retires, is injured etc.) then their score at the end of the innings will be deemed their final total. A batsman must face at least one ball, and a bowler must bowl at least one ball, for bets on that specified player to stand on their respective markets.
3. Man of The Match/Top Batsman/Bowler: Bets on a player in the starting eleven will stand irrespective of whether they bat or bowl. Dead heat rules apply.
4. Next Man Out/Next Wicket Dismissal Method: Bets on these markets will be void if neither player is out or if a player retires hurt.
5. Opening Partnership: The Opening Partnership is the score at the fall of the first wicket. If a batsman retires, bets on this market will be decided on the fall of the next wicket. For the highest opening partnership, bets will stand providing both opening partnerships are completed or the result has already been determined.
6. Total Wickets/Wicket in Over: A batsman who retires due to injury will not count as a lost wicket.
7. Total Wides/Byes/Leg Byes/No Balls/Extras: All runs scored off a wide/bye/leg bye/no ball/extra count for these markets. Total Byes: Leg byes are not included in this market.
8. Number of 4’s/6’s/Boundaries: Only boundaries off the bat and attributed to the batsman count. Extras and/or overthrows do not count.
9. Most Run Outs: This market is based on which team creates the most run-outs when they are fielding.
10. Total Runs/Highest Score - Specified number of overs (for example, first 15 overs): The specified number of overs must be bowled for bets to stand, unless the innings has reached its natural conclusion or further play could not have affected the result.
11. Total Runs/Wicket in Over: An over must be completed for bets to stand, unless the innings has reached its natural conclusion or further play could not have affected the result. Bets are void if an over has not been started.
12. Series Betting: If the designated number of matches in a series is not completed, bets on the series winner will be void unless enough matches have been played to determine the winner. Bets on the correct series score will be settled as a dead heat, dependent on the number of possible scores remaining. Correct score bets that have already been determined will be settled accordingly. If a series is drawn and no price for the draw was offered, bets will be void.
13. Series/Tournament Top Batsman/Bowler markets: All players will count irrespective of whether they play in any match or not.

2) Limited Overs Matches

1. All bets are based on the official match result, unless specifically detailed otherwise. If there is insufficient play to determine a winner, and the side progressing to the next round is decided by a bowl out or coin toss, bets on the match winner will be void. If a completed match ends in a tie, bets on that match will be settled as a dead heat unless a ‘super over’ determines the winner. A ‘super over’ will only be used to determine the match winner and will not affect the settlement of any other match markets.
   All bets on the match stand (excluding Man of The Match/Top Batsman/Bowler) providing at least one of the following:
   
   • 1) Both teams bat for at least 90% of the scheduled number of overs at the time a bet was placed.
   • 2) An innings has reached its natural conclusion.
   • 3) The market has already been determined.
   
   All bets relating to an innings stand (excluding Top Batsman/Bowler) providing at least one of the following:
   
   • 1) That team bats for at least 90% of the scheduled number of overs at the time a bet was placed.
   • 2) An innings has reached its natural conclusion.
   • 3) The market has already been determined.
2. Top Batsman/Bowler: All bets stand providing at least one of the following:
   
   • 1) Both teams bowl at least 50% of the scheduled number of overs at the time a bet was placed.
   • 2) An innings has reached its natural conclusion.
   • 3) The market has already been determined.

   • 3) The market has already been determined.

3) Test Matches / 2 Innings Matches

1. All bets are based on the official match result, unless specifically detailed otherwise. In the event of a tied match, bets will be settled as a dead heat, and stakes on a draw will be lost. Please note that a tie (when the match is completed, both teams finish on equal scores and the team batting last has completed its innings) is a different result from a draw (when the allotted time for a match has expired and neither team has won).
   All bets on the match result stand, providing at least 50 overs have been bowled.
   On other match markets, all bets stand providing at least one of the following:
   
   • 1) Each team bowls at least 50 overs in each of their first innings.
   • 2) An innings has reached its natural conclusion.
   • 3) The market has already been determined.
   
   All bets on an individual innings stand providing at least one of the following:
   
   • 1) At least 50 overs are bowled in that innings.
   • 2) That innings has reached its natural conclusion.
   • 3) The market has already been determined.
2. Highest Score - 1st Innings: Both teams must complete their first innings (including declarations) for bets to stand unless the market has already been determined.
