In India, 20bet offers a punter a betting site and mobile betting app. There is also a full suite of casino games on offer from some good software providers. 20bet is one to keep an eye on as we expect them to increase in our rankings over time as they build trust with customers.

How to bet on cricket
Once you’ve chosen your bookmaker and signed up to a new betting account with them you’ll want to then place some bets on cricket. Betting should be done responsibly and we can’t emphasize enough that you should bet within your means. Set yourself some limits and understand sometimes your bets will win and other times they’ll lose.
We like to bet a bit of fun whilst watching a game of cricket.
Let us take Betway for example. This bookmaker offers a huge sportsbook and cricket is easily accessible through their desktop version, mobile site or app. Once you’ve signed in and added funds to your betting account, simply choose Cricket from the menu and this will open up all of the available cricket matches for you to bet on.
In-play is betting on a game whilst it is being played – this is also known as live betting on some sites.
Our top-rated site for in-play is Betway – You can see their live match centre below
Within the In-play option, you can really narrow down your selections. An example being you can bet on individual balls in an over; whether you think runs might be scored from a particular ball. You can choose the dismissal method of a player. Ideal if a spinner starts to the ball and the fielders close in. Maybe you fancy a catch in the slips. There are many other ways to bet whilst In-Play and well worth checking out.
Yes, you can cash out most cricket bets in play. This will show as an option in my bets section of your account.
Cash out is a clever betting option allows you to place a bet and before the event has finished your bookmaker could offer you some or part of your winnings. If you decide to take the offer you ‘cash out’ closing the bet for the amount offered. Of course, this is great whilst betting in-play.
