Short Reviews of the Top-Rated Betting Apps for Cricket
bet365
One of the best known global brands, bet365 has a flexible and easy to follow app which is essential for mobile users. Like all the best apps, it’s free to use and fast to download. Bet365 are widely acknowledged to be the industry experts when it comes to in-play markets so it’s important to have this app by your side.
There’s also a strong set of pre-match markets at bet365. Their odds are always competitive and they are usually very active in terms of offers and promotions. They are a great all-rounder – a bit like Kapil Dev – and they should be one of the first sportsbooks to sign up with.
Parimatch Cricket Betting App
Those who are signed up with Parimatch like to play here for a number of reasons. They have become established and respected among the global betting community in a very short space of time.
They are one of the best companies online in terms of promotions. There should be a generous welcome deal to get you up and running and this is likely to be followed by additional offers for the life of the account.
Odds are always competitive but those offers help to boost your value. Other boxes are ticked too with a good choice of cricket markets along with effective customer service.
Betway Mobile App
While they are not quite in the same league as bet365, Betway also have a superb set of in-play markets. If you’re betting on cricket or any other sport, they are worth checking out.
Betway also score highly in other areas. They provide competitive and boosted odds and they like to back them up with lots of offers and promotions. Extensive market coverage of the major cricket games helps to complete an excellent package.
In fact, it’s going to be hard to beat Betway in terms of that choice. For the biggest cricket matches, they may have well over a hundred markets to bet on.
10cric Cricket Betting App
As the name suggests, there is a big emphasis on the cricket markets at this sportsbook but you should be able to find a wide choice of sports at 10Cric. But the fact that 10Cric have such a clear branding means that they focus very strongly on cricket matches from around the world.
Choice is the key factor for anyone signing up here. There is better coverage of cricket matches around the world than with most outlets and, within those games, there is an extensive range of markets to consider.
Leovegas
They may be better known for their casino but it would be a shame if you missed the LeoVegas sportsbook. There should be a generous promotion to start your betting journey while other offers will appear during the life of the account.
While cricket forms just a part of their overall sports platform, the company clearly takes it very seriously. There are lots of markets to cover and the odds stand up against any other provider.
The app is free and fast to download and this very experienced sports betting company also offer a wide range of funding options.
LVbet
While they are a mainland European bookmaker with a focus on popular sports within that region, it’s important not to ignore LVBet. They have a wide coverage of all events and cricket gets a lot of attention.
Their app is also impressive and is one of the best in terms of design and functionality. It’s really easy to find your way around it and to locate the markets that you need. For flexibility with that app and a good set of high cricket betting odds, LVBet certainly should be considered.
Novibet Cricket Betting App
Competitive odds are the big selling point at Novibet. Their pricing is always in step with the rest of the industry and they are frequently out on their own with the best odds on specific markets.
There may not be quite as many offers and promotions to back things up but those excellent odds certainly compensate for this. Choice is good too with lots of cricket markets published throughout the calendar year. As for the app, this provides all you could possibly want with a fast download and an easy to use interface.
Comeon Cricket Betting App
While offers and promotions are always subject to change, Comeon usually list a very generous welcome deal which involves matched funds on opening deposits. Check the terms and conditions but this is one of the best out there.
Moving forward, other promos can usually be accessed. The cricket markets are easy to find and there’s lots of them. Like all the best sportsbooks, there is a great balance here between great odds and choice of markets.
4rabet App
4Rabet is another sportsbook app with a strong focus on players in India. It promises high odds and a fast paying platform so you shouldn’t be waiting too long for any withdrawals to hit your account.
Another generous welcome offer gets things moving here and, if you’re signing up from India, the platform will default to the local currency. Like all good apps, this is fast and free to download to your device and you’ll be able to access hundreds of cricket markets in a matter of seconds.
Paripesa
The clever design of the Paripesa app is something that really helps it to stand out. While the sportsbook’s branding remains very visible, it’s so easy to find all of your favourite sports. On a clear background, the back text is unmistakeable, and this clarity is really important.
Paripesa go on to tick all of the relevant boxes. There is a generous welcome offer followed by ongoing promos. There are more than 20 sports here with cricket enjoying a lot of coverage. A good choice of markets and competitive betting odds are in place.
Betwinner Cricket Betting App
A well known international bookmaker, Betwinner have been providing services to India and beyond for many years. Their app is available on both iOS and Android devices and it’s very easy to use.
This is another sportsbook where live betting is extensive so it makes sense to have the app if you are betting in play. Markets are in place for cricket tournaments across the world and Indian players can enjoy the IPL and all of their regular, favourite competitions.
Neo.bet
Neo.bet kick things off by providing one of the most generous welcome bonuses of anyone on this list. While that may be subject to change, it’s been in place for some time and it’s an indication that you will get some very good value here.
Other promotions may follow while the presence of competitive odds adds to that value. Cricket is an important part of the platform and, when you download the app onto your mobile device, you’ll find that it’s easy to use and you can locate your favourite sport very quickly.
Dafabet
Dafabet introduce themselves as the best and most secure gaming company in India. That’s a very bold claim but there’s certainly a lot to like about their sports betting platform.
Like all good cricket sportsbooks, things get underway positively with a welcome bonus and there should be additional deals moving forward. Dafabet have entered into sports sponsorship in the past and they are happy to get behind our favourite events.
Cricket is an important part of that platform and there’s lots to consider. Major competitions and minor domestic tournaments are all located here. With lots of choice and some impressive odds, Dafabet is another app to consider as part of your cricket betting portfolio.
Melbet Cricket Betting App
Melbet is a site that supports over 30 sports. Because it has a domain name dedicated to India there is an emphasis on cricket together with lots of other events that are important to players here.
Offers and promotions provide a boost to excellent odds and there’s the usual great choice of markets. Like all good cricket betting apps, you can easily find your favourite sport. The design and interface are nicely done and it really is simple to find your away around.
The fast and free download helps to make this another of the high quality online cricket betting apps.
1Xbet
1xBet’s global customer base is set to exceed half a million players so they must be doing something right. The key to that growth lies in focusing on the basics and that’s why there are exceptional odds with a really wide choice of markets.
They are popular in India and that’s partly because 1xBet take their cricket very seriously. Expect to see markets for the big games appear well in advance while local, domestic cricket options for events such as the Ranji Trophy are also included.
With an easy to use and free app available. 1xBet is another sportsbook that ticks all the boxes.
Casumo Mobile App
Another operator who may be more commonly known for their casino, Casumo have a new sports betting platform and it’s worth checking out. The company offer some great bonuses here and those are on top of excellent odds for cricket and other sports.
The app is very easy to use. All the markets are listed in a logical order and the design offers clarity. This is also one of the best bookmakers in terms of customer support and Casumo’s wide range of funding options makes it easy to get on board.
22bet
You may not see quite so many offers and promotions at 22Bet but that’s not really a problem. Rather than tempt players in with flashy deals, they like to concentrate more on providing a great all round betting service.
That means listing excellent odds through the life of the account. Exceptional pricing is behind all sports and cricket is included. Of course, they also have great choice when it comes to the cricket markets.
It’s all backed up by solid infrastructure. 22Bet have fast customer service, a wide range of deposit and withdrawal options and the app is fast to download.
Fun88 Mobile Betting App
Fun88 are one of the newer sportsbooks on the list, having been set up as recently as 2019. Their app quickly followed, and it is now available for both iOS and Android devices.
This betting company is well known for its wide coverage of markets and it’s clear that they take cricket very seriously. All the major competitions are included, as you would expect, but Fun88 also work hard to cover a lot of domestic cricket from around the world.
Competitive odds can be lifted at times by price boosts so that great mix of choice and value is in evidence.
What Makes a Good IPL Betting App? – Things to Consider When Choosing
License and Reputation
All of the sportsbooks listed in this round up are licensed and regulated to provide betting services in India and in other parts of the world. If you are researching a bookmaker yourself, it’s essential that they meet all of the legal requirements.
You can look them up via your mobile browser before you decide to download the app. Simply scroll down to the bottom of the homepage and all of the details relating to licensing and regulation will be shown.
Reputation is also important but it’s not so easy to identify. All of the betting companies on this list come highly recommended by us and our readers. To do your own research, take some time to look at the company background. How long have they been in existence and are they a part of a bigger group?
A quick look at some independent forums can also help to get a feel for a sportsbook’s reputation.
Security
When using a sports betting company, we are sending over some sensitive information so we need to know that the platform is completely secure. The best sportsbooks will have a whole section listing key information as to how they keep you safe when playing online.
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is the technology used to encrypt those sensitive details. This can all get a bit technical at times but it should be outlined in simple terms under the bookmaker’s security page. If in any doubt, you can send a query over to customer services.
Bonus and Promotions
The best cricket betting apps will always provide regular, competitive odds, but it’s nice to enhance that value from time to time. Often, there will be a welcome bonus when you sign up as a new customer while many bookmakers also have ongoing promotions for the life of that account.
Bonuses can come in many forms: There can be free cricket bets, matched funds on opening deposits, or a refunded stake if your first bet loses. Remember to always check terms and conditions before going ahead but, by playing with a sportsbook that has plenty of offers, you can get extra value for your money.
Available Banking Options via Online Cricket Betting Apps
It’s good to have a choice of banking options. Most of us have the capacity to transfer funds with bank transfers, plus Visa and Mastercard but we don’t always want to take that route. The best cricket betting apps will offer a wider choice.
We’ll list some of those options a little later but it will help if there is a good spread of eWallets and other methods such as Cryptocurrency. By offering a number of deposit and withdrawal methods, it shows that an operator is flexible and that can help us in a number of ways.
Responsive and Knowledgeable Support
We all need a little assistance at times and it’s useful to have a number of ways in which to get in touch with our sportsbooks. The quickest way to deal with a query is via live chat and more bookmakers are starting to offer this option.
Other ways to communicate can include emails and webforms while some operators still list a telephone number. Whichever method you use, the response should be fast and knowledgeable.
Before you have a real query, why not send over a random question to customer services. It’s a good way to test this out.
Usability and Design
On a small mobile screen, you need your functionality to be first class. All the important parts of a cricket betting app platform will need to be in place. You need to find markets quickly and, when the time comes to deposit and withdraw, the cashier should be clearly shown.
The design should be clear and easy to follow. Complicated colour schemes and unnecessary graphics will hinder your progress. Apps are all about making your betting stress-free and that’s why usability and design is so important.
How to Bet on Cricket via Mobile App?
Choose a Cricket Betting App
This is the first, and most obvious step. Unless you have unlimited room on your mobile device, you will want to restrict the amount of online cricket betting apps that you have on screen.
We’ve provided you with a lot of reviews here. Now you need to work through the list, check out the cricket betting sites for yourself and decide which apps you want to use.
Download the App
The download process may vary depending on which type of device you have. For Android and iOs users, each cricket betting app can be accessed via the app store.
If you have an Android device, the store may exclude online betting apps. In this case, you will need to call up the mobile website in your browser and click on the link.
In the present day, many cricket betting sites also publish QR codes on their homepage. Just scan this and the technology will do the rest.
However your device operates, downloads should be fast and your app should be ready to use in just a couple of minutes.
Register an Account
If you have already registered an account via a laptop or static PC, you should be able to use the same logins to access the app. If not, you can register on the app for a brand new account.
Each operator will work slightly differently but the sign up process should follow a similar pattern. You will be asked to input essential personal details such as name, address, email and telephone number.
Password and username will also be required and you’ll be asked to set your default currency. Be prepared to send ID documents for verification if requested.
The whole procedure should be secure and it’s likely to take no more than five minutes from start to finish.
Deposit
You can’t place a bet without funds so you’ll now need to make a deposit. Once again, there will be subtle differences between sportsbooks but the processes should all be similar.
After registering you should be taken to the cashier. At this point, you will be able to see the payment options that are available to you. Bank cards, bank transfers, plus any available eWallets, will be clearly listed.
Make your choice and enter the required account details. Input the amount you wish to deposit and click on a button to submit. In most cases, those transactions should be instant.
If you are not automatically asked to make a deposit, look towards the top right hand corner of the homepage. There will be a button marked ‘deposit’ or ‘cashier’.
Make your First Bet
You’ve signed up with a sportsbook, you’ve downloaded the app and you’ve added some funds. Now it’s time to make that first bet. Head to the cricket markets. They should be easy to find as long as that sports betting company has ticked all of our boxes relating to design and functionality.
Now look at the list of matches and click on the one that interests you. The sportsbook will now list all of the markets that they have available. Odds will be published next to prospective outcomes.
Let’s say that you want to bet on India to beat England and the odds are 2.50. Click on that 2.50 figure and a betslip will open. Now type in the stake that you are comfortable to bet with.
If everything looks good, there will be a ‘submit’ button. Click on this and your bet is placed.
Deposit on a Betting App
We’ve covered the process behind making a deposit so now let’s see what funding options are likely to available.
UPI
UPI is short for United Payments Interface. This is a global organisation where customers can easily carry out business to business or peer to peer financial transactions.
Its flexibility makes it a popular choice among sports betting companies and you should see UPI available on most of the apps listed here. Set up in 2016, there is a high concentration of businesses accepting UPI in India.
This is a highly trusted brand and its speed, ease of use and cost effective service makes it an ideal fit for sports betting companies across the world.
PayTM
PayTM are a well known name around India and they’ve been involved with IPL sponsorship in the past. You can add money to your PayTM wallet via internet banking or from your debit / credit cards.
Once the funds are there, you can pay for a number of goods and services including sports betting. As an Indian company that was set up in 2010, there is a lot of trust and local knowledge involved and many Indian cricket apps are happy to offer PayTM on their platform.
NetBanking
The majority of app transactions are carried out via Netbanking. All major banks in India allow you to conduct your finances online and there are apps in place to make the process much quicker.
Funding your sports betting account can be done in two ways: A bank transfer allows the switching of money between your account and that of the bookmaker’s. The same transactions can also be carried out by inputting your debit card details.
Fees are less likely to appear with bank transactions and those deposits and withdrawals can also be quicker.
PhonePe
Another proud Indian financial company, PhonePe were originally established back in 2015. They are a diverse organisation who allow customers to use prepaid payments for goods and services in the online and offline worlds.
They are also present in a number of online cricket betting apps and they are easy to use. Click on the deposit or cashier app from your app’s homepage. Input the amount you wish to add and then confirm.
Check with your sportsbook as to whether any charges occur when using PhonePe for your betting transactions.
Google Pay
It’s fair to say that Google Pay was quite revolutionary when it came along in 2011. The app made it easy to pay via contactless methods for a number of goods and services.
It was certainly strange to see people pay for their coffee with an Apple watch but this was the future. Google Pay can also be used for online services and that includes sports betting. Some apps have been slower to include it but it’s getting more visible.
When you head to the cashier, payments should be simple and fast and the fees, if there are any, will be minimal.
Bitcoin
Cryptocurrency isn’t for everyone but, the best apps are the ones that are flexible. If you have mastered the blockchain, you will certainly want to be able to use Bitcoin and others in a wide number of ways.
More and more mainstream sportsbooks are starting to accept crypto for deposits and withdrawals. It’s a trend that’s been slow to take off but it’s gaining some momentum in 2023 and beyond.
Neteller
Around the betting world, Neteller are one of the most popular eWallets. Almost every sportsbook supports them and most Indian cricket betting sites have them in place.
Like all eWallets, there is an added level of security with Neteller. When you use them for any transaction, none of your personal details are shared with the merchant. They are also easy to use, just input your account details, enter the amount that you wish to transfer and click the submit button.
Some sportsbooks may charge for Neteller transactions but most will be free. Remember to always check with the eWallet concerned to see if they charge any fees.
Skrill
While they are entirely separate companies, Skrill will almost always appear alongside Neteller on a sportsbook’s list of funding options. Skrill operates in an almost identical fashion:
Head to the cashier and input your Skrill account number. Type in the amount you want to deposit and click to submit. Deposits should be instant while withdrawals may take up to 48 hours. Charges may vary but the best cricket betting apps should be free of fees with Skrill.
Advantages of Online Cricket Betting Apps
Mobility
We don’t always have our laptops to hand and we aren’t always in front of a PC when we want to make a bet. Being mobile just makes things easier and more flexible in all walks of life and betting is no exception.
Maybe you hear of a good tip from a friend in a bar. Perhaps you’re stuck on a train and want to place a bet before the big game kicks off. These are just two of the scenarios where being mobile makes things so much easier.
The modern-day cricket betting markets are fast-moving and an app provides the technology and assistance that you need in order to keep up.
Live Cricket Betting
If you ever bet on the live cricket betting markets then I would say that an app is a ‘must have’. Games are played at all times of the day and night. You can’t always be in front of a PC or laptop but most of us will have our mobile phones on hand at all times.
Those markets can move very quickly as they react to the development of the game. A team could be favourites to win but, if they lose two or three quick wickets, it can all change. Bettors need to be quick in order to take advantage of the best odds in the live markets. They can change in a second and an app is the fastest way to click and get the price you want.
The question of mobility and flexibility is also crucial in the live markets. Ideally, you should be watching a game as the action unfolds. When you want to place a bet, the mobile device is your most flexible friend.
Apps can be important for all types of betting – pre-match and in-play – but, if you are serious about the live markets, they really are invaluable.
Betting App FAQ
Which Mobile Betting Apps are Popular in India?
All of those apps are in use across India but some are definitely more popular than others. The three that are on mobile devices more than most are bet365, Betway and 10cric.
Bet365 claim in their TV advertisements to be the world’s ‘favourite betting company‘. It’s a bold suggestion but it’s one that does come with some substance. They have a global fanbase with millions of users and their strong coverage of cricket markets means that they are popular in India.
It’s certainly hard to argue with the view that bet365 are the best when it comes to live betting. If you do bet in play then you’ll really need an app for the reasons that I’ve stated above but it’s useful for live bets and pre-match ones too.
Betway are also strong in the live section and that’s one reason why their app is so popular in India. Another good reason is the fact that they offer more cricket markets than virtually all other bookmakers.
For the big games, including those from the Indian Premier League, there may be many hundreds of options. Odds are competitive too and that mix of choice and value gives Betway an edge.
10Cric’s app is also widely used around India. They have that focus on Indian customers that allows you to play in local currency and that’s certainly useful. The fact that their brand name is an abbreviation of the word ‘cricket’ also tells us that they are devoted to the sport.
10Cric have more cricket markets than most and they cover games from all over the world. Great odds back things up and this is another sportsbook that ticks all the boxes for Indian cricket betting.
Is it Legal to Use a Betting App in India?
It might be fair to say that the gambling laws in India are a little ambiguous. Betting in person in the physical world is illegal but there are no rules in place relating to online gambling.
Therefore, they are no laws in India which prohibit online play. You can therefore sign up with any of the sportsbooks listed as long as you have met minimum age and other eligibility requirements.
The same principle applies to betting via an app. This counts as online betting and there are no laws in place to say that this practise is not acceptable.
