Live betting takes the excitement of cricket to the next level—odds shift ball by ball, momentum swings fast, and the smartest bettors know exactly when to strike. But when is the best time to place a live bet?

In this blog, we break down the most strategic moments during a cricket match to place live bets on RadhaExchange, helping you maximize value and minimize risk.

🎯 Why Timing Matters in Live Betting

In live betting, the odds are dynamic. They change:

• After a wicket
• After a boundary or a maiden over
• Based on run rate, required rate, or partnerships

The goal: Get in when odds are in your favor—before they react to the game.

🏏 1. After a Wicket Falls

When a key batsman gets out:

• The betting odds usually favor the bowling team
• But if a solid finisher is next in, you might find value in backing the chasing team at better odds

Strategy Tip:
Back the team to chase immediately after a top-order collapse, if the pitch is still good for batting.

💣 2. End of Powerplay (Overs 6 or 7)

This is when teams settle into a rhythm. You get clarity on:

• Batting intent
• Field settings
• Bowling strengths

Ideal for:

• Betting on total runs
• Predicting partnerships
• Player performance bets (e.g., “Batsman A to score 30+”)

📈 3. When the Underdog Starts Gaining Momentum

Bookmakers often lag behind real-time momentum. If an underdog team:

• Takes quick wickets
• Hits a flurry of boundaries
• Builds a key partnership

… you can place a bet before odds shorten.

Pro Tip: RadhaExchange shows ball-by-ball graphs—use it to spot momentum changes early.

🔄 4. During Strategic Timeouts

🧠 5. Last 5 Overs in T20 Matches

T20 finishes are unpredictable—this is where smart betting can make you big returns.

Best markets:

• Total runs in last 5 overs
• Batsman to score next boundary
• Number of wickets in final 3 overs

Look for:

• Fresh batters
• Bowling matchups
• Fielding pressure
