Cricket is regularly in gambling news, but not for the right reasons! For cricket betting beginners, the world of cricket betting can seem overwhelming. There are test matches lasting five days, something called the Duckworth-Lewis method, and there’s a position on the field actually called silly point.

Luckily, you don’t have to worry about all that this weekend. This is betting on Twenty20 cricket, the simplest and quickest form played. Two sides of eleven each play 20 “overs” (the ball is “bowled” six times in an over). The other players try to get each batter out, by catching the ball, hitting the stumps with the ball, or LBW (meaning “leg-before wicket’, but you can bet on cricket without knowing what this means.) Whoever has most runs wins.

On Sunday 3rd April, West Indies take on England in the final of the Twenty20 world cup, to judge the best Twenty20 team in the world. If you want to know how to bet on the World Twenty20 final, or even better, how to win money betting on World Twenty20 final, just read our simple guide!

How to win money betting on World Twenty20 final winner


The simplest cricket bets are on who will win. After an exciting tournament, England and West Indies are the two teams remaining in the competition and they are very evenly placed. They have the same odds according to Bwin Sportsbook, so if you want a very easy cricket bet, just pick your favourite! You’ll be as likely to win as not.

However, if you want to win money then it’s best to be smarter. The hosts and favourites India were knocked out by the West Indies, so that perhaps their victors should rightly be judged the new favourites. England, though, have been playing the best cricket in the tournament. When they bet to potential, they can blast away anybody. However, if you bet on sports in the UK, you’ll know that England cricketers don’t always live up to expectations. 

Our Verdict

Bet on West Indies to win at 1.90 (9/10) at Bwin Sportsbook.

How to win money betting on World Twenty20 final most sixes

  • West Indies to have most sixes at 1.48 (12/25)
  • England to have most sixes at 2.45 (29/20)
Okay, more cricket basics for if you haven't bet on sports in India before this tournament. You gather one run by swapping places with your batting partner, before the other team can retrieve the ball and hit the stumps. However, if you hit the ball out of the field, you automatically get four runs. Better still, if it leaves the field without touching the ground you get six runs. Betting on who will get most “sixes”, is another interesting way to make money this weekend.

With England’s powerful hitting, you should bet on them in this category. Jos Buttler, not even rated as the most prolific run scorer, has got 9 sixes so far this tournament.

Our Verdict

Bet on England to have most sixes at 2.45 (29/20) at Bwin Sportsbook.

  • West Indies at 1.80 (4/5)
  • England at 1.95 (19/20)
A final way to make money betting on World Twenty20 Final this weekend, is to bet on the highest opening partnership. This is the number of runs reached by the first two players who bat for a team. The England opening partnership of Jason Roy and Alex hales is averaging at 42 so far the tournament, which is a rather impressive total for Twenty20.

However, England have some of their most reliable batsmen further down their batting order. West Indies, on the other hand, open with Johnson Charles and Chris Gayle. Nobody has scored more Twenty20 runs in history than Gayle, though he hasn’t performed to his best this tournament. We recon he’ll finally turn up with his best on the biggest stage. 

Our Verdict

Bet on West Indies to have the highest opening partnership at 1.80 (4/5) at Bwin Sportsbook.
