Cricket

General

Bets will be settled on the official tournament results and match scorecards published on the ICC's official website. If there is no result available, then www.espncricinfo.com will be used for settlement purposes.

A batter that retires from an innings will not be considered as a wicket for settlement purposes.

The term ‘innings reaching its natural conclusion’ refers to an innings which has not been closed due to external factors such as rain or bad light. A team being bowled out or declaring is considered to constitute the natural conclusion of an innings.

If a match venue is changed, then bets already placed will stand, providing the home team is still designated as such. If the home and away team for a listed match are reversed, then bets placed based on the original listing will be void.

Abandonments, Cancellations and Postponements

If a match is cancelled before any play has taken place, then all bets will be void, unless the match is played within 48 hours of its original start time (in which case the bets will stand).

Limited Overs Matches

Bets will be settled according to the winner as determined by official competition rules (including where matches are shortened due to external factors and the Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method or similar is used to produce an official result). If there is insufficient play for there to be an official result under competition rules, bets will be void regardless of whether competition rules dictate a ‘winner’ for tournament progression purposes or if there is a super over or bowl-out to determine a winner.

If a match is tied and a super over or bowl-out is played, bets on the match winner will settle on the super over or bowl-out result. In all other scenarios, dead heat rules will apply. For the avoidance of doubt, if scores are tied at the completion of both innings (including the scenario where DLS or other similar methods are used in reduced over games), any tie breaker based on previous action in the match/competition/tournament that may be used to determine a winner does not count for settlement.

If a super over or bowl-out results in tied scores with no other play used to determine a winner, then dead heat rules will apply. If there are subsequent super overs or bowl-outs used, bets will be settled on the final super over or bowl-out result.

Test Matches & County Championship Matches

If a match is abandoned due to weather before a ball has been bowled, bets will be void.

If a match is abandoned for any reason other than weather, bets on the match result will be void.

If a match for which we did not offer odds for the draw ends in a draw, bets on the match result will be void.

If either side forfeits their first innings, bets on the first innings will be void.

Sheffield Shield Matches

If a match for which we did not offer odds for the draw ends in a draw, bets will be settled on the team that has the most points awarded to them in the match. If the number of points awarded to each team is equal, bets will be void.

Series Betting

We reserve the right to void any speciality markets which relate to the series as a whole if the full number of scheduled matches is not played.

If a series for which we did not offer odds for the draw ends in a draw, bets on the series result will be void.

Team Total Runs

If a team's innings in a test match or county championship match lasts less than sixty overs due to external factors, bets will be void, unless the innings has reached its natural conclusion.

For limited overs matches, bets will be settled on the final score achieved by the batting side, including any extras or penalty runs awarded during the innings. If there is a reduction in the scheduled overs, bets will stand provided the reduction is no more than 20% of the entire innings allocation at the time the bet was placed (including any overs the team has already faced); otherwise, bets will be void unless the outcome of any such bet had already been unconditionally determined. If a team is due to face less than 10 overs, then all bets will be void if there is any reduction in overs whatsoever.

In matches where we offer betting on the Team Total Runs for both teams, bets placed on the second innings runs will stand regardless of the score achieved by the side batting first, provided neither team's innings is reduced by more than 20% of the entire innings allocation (including any overs already bowled when the bet was placed).

Top Team Batter/Runscorer and Bowler/Wicket-Taker (Series/Tournament)

Bets are settled on an ‘all in compete or not’ basis (i.e. if a player does not take part in the series, bets placed on that player will stand).

X Team to Score X Runs

This market is separate to Team Total Runs and bets will be settled on the total runs scored by the respective team regardless of any reduction in overs.

In all cases, however, bets will stand if the innings reaches its natural conclusion in less than the above requirement. Bets placed on any player not named in the starting eleven will be void.

Players named in the starting eleven that do not bat are deemed to have taken part and bets on any such players will be settled as losing bets.

If two or more players score the same number of runs, dead heat rules will apply.

For limited overs matches, should the winner already be unconditionally determined even if the innings were to be played out to its natural conclusion, the market will be settled as normal despite any reduction.

At least one ball must be bowled while a batter is at the crease (facing or not) for bets to stand.

If the batter finishes the innings not out as a result of a declaration, the team reaching the end of its allotted overs or the team reaching its target, the player’s ‘not out’ score will count for settlement purposes.

If a batter does not bat, bets on that batter will be void.

If a batter is not in the starting 11, bets on that batter will be void.

If a batter retires hurt but returns later, the total runs scored by that batter in the innings will count for settlement purposes. If the batter does not return later, the final result, for settlement purposes, will be as it stood when the batter retired.

Number of Runs in a Session

Bets will be settled on the total number of runs scored in the course of the session regardless of which team(s) has/have scored the runs (i.e. if there is a change of innings during the session then the result will be determined by the combined number of runs scored, during the session, in both innings).

Extras (wides, no-balls, byes and leg byes) do count towards the number of runs scored.

Any change in fielding restrictions due to a reduction in scheduled overs will not affect the settlement of this market.

6 Over Runs

Bets will be settled on the total number of runs after six overs providing that all six overs have been bowled in the relevant innings or if the innings has reached its natural conclusion.

In the instance of six overs not being completed, bets will be void. To clarify, if a match is reduced to 10 overs, bets on this market will still stand, providing at least six overs are completed, or the innings reaches its natural conclusion but would be void in a five-over match.

Highest Score First 5/10/15 Overs

If either team's innings in a limited overs match is reduced due to external factors, bets will be void unless the result was already been unconditionally determined before any reduction in overs was announced.
