How to Read the Cricket Score Correctly?

Kenyan punters are finding value with cricket betting markets. Understanding live scores is a foundational step for any profitable betting strategy. The Efirbet API analyzes the evolving narrative of today’s live cricket match today.


How to Score—Common Terminologies

Success with cricket betting starts with knowing popular terms when following the game. Here are essential terminologies every newbie punter should learn:

  • Runs: Runs scored will accumulate for batsmen who score by hitting balls and running between the stumps. Common types of markets for runs are ‘over/under’ total runs scored, first-batsman to score ‘x’ runs, and runs scored in the next over.
  • Wickets: A wicket is the means by which a batsman is declared ‘out’ after having been dismissed. At the end of a team’s innings, they will have lost ten wickets. A batsman can be dismissed in many ways. One, they might be caught by a fielder while batting, or have their wicket broken by the bowler. Alternatively, they run out because they do not touch the crease before the fielder retrieves the ball.
  • Overs: An over consists of a bowler delivering six balls. An international game has a maximum of 10 overs for an innings by a bowler, while the pace of the game is controlled between the batting and fielding teams by the number of overs allowed.

Other added features for Kenyan bettors to learn are:

  • Byes: A bye is a run scored by the batting team when the ball passes the striker without touching the bat.
  • Leg byes: Runs awarded when the ball hits the batsman’s body, and they run. The ball must be legally delivered.
  • No balls: An illegal delivery where the bowler breaks specific rules. This results in a 1-run penalty, an extra ball added to the over, and a ‘free hit’ for the batter in limited-over formats.
  • Wides: A delivery that is too wide for the batsman to hit, resulting in an extra run and an additional delivery to be bowled.
  • Penalty runs: Awarded for breaches of conduct or rules by the fielding team.

When tracking cricket score live data, pay attention to these three pillars:

  • Strike Rate: The speed of scoring
  • Economy Rate: Rate of conceding per over
  • Partnership Total: Length of current duo at crease

Our platform’s API integrates these into the ‘Match Strength’ indicator. Kenyan bettors can spot ‘value bets’ through AI-driven percentages. Compare these odds with those on bookies’ sites.


How Does Betting Work in Cricket?

Cricket betting is a multi-layered experience due to hundreds of unique betting markets within a single match.

Unlike football’s simple draw-win-loss, the sport allows betting on outcomes (match winner), player performances (wickets, runs), and proposition bets (what happens after the first ball).

Odds are set by bookmakers, taking into consideration all the factors like the current form of a player, the strength of the team, pitch conditions, and the weather. The higher the odds, the less likely the outcome is. Conversely, the lower the odds on an outcome, the safer the bet is.

For example, let’s say there is a global T20 cricket league where the bookmaker has set three types of markets: match winner odds, top batsman odds, and over/under total sixes bets. If you place a bet on Team A to win at 2.00 and then they win, you would be paid back a total of 2,000 KES from your original stake of 1,000 KES.

Odds of cricket betting shift on each delivery when engaging in live online betting. If a prominent player, such as Joe Root, happens to be out, the price for his corresponding franchise will change almost immediately.


What are the Best Cricket Betting Tips for Kenyans?

Kenyan cricket punters are finding value with these markets compared to football. Here are expert tips when placing bets:

Understand formats and conditions

Cricket consists of three major international formats. This includes Test, One-Day International, and Twenty20. Each form features unique rules, durations, and conditions that shape strategy.

Consequently, pitch conditions along with weather could impact how a game concludes. For example, when you have a ‘green’ pitch, it will assist fast bowlers, whereas with a dry & cracked pitch/spin bowling will have an advantage.

Furthermore, overcast conditions increase the chance of swing, while any type of rain, wind, or dew would create issues during play, which could cause Duckworth-Lewis calculations to be applied.

Pick smart cricket markets

There are multiple betting markets beyond only picking an outright match winner. Explore deeper markets where the bookmaker might have less data. Markets such as ‘Man of the Match’ or ‘To Score a Century’ are difficult to predict, but carry the highest odds.

Other markets with high-value odds include first-over markets, player specials, and in-play betting. These alternative markets carry less attention from casual bettors and present better value for those who take the time to research.

Use stats, not just big names

Most casual bettors use big names to influence their betting decisions. However, cricket betting heavily relies on current form and ground history. Some batsmen have ‘bogey’ grounds, or specific bowlers who always seem to take their wicket.

Use tools on our cricket scores platform to check head-to-head stats. Other essential stats to consider include: player form, venue-specific data, and average scores. Other metrics, such as batting/bowling averages, economy rates, strike rates, and toss impact, come in handy too.

Stick to formats and leagues you can actually follow

There’s a sheer volume of cricket leagues from the IPL (India), Big Bash (Australia), to local Kenyan tournaments. It’s overwhelming to keep up with each league or format. Therefore, we recommend sticking to one or two leagues.

This allows you to keep track of player injuries, ‘momentum shifts,’ and squad rotations that general algorithms miss. Consistency in one league beats guessing across five leagues.

Look for cricket-related bonuses

Sorry nothing was found...


Kenyan bookmakers frequently offer cricket-specific promotions. This is especially during IPL or the World Cup series. Always take advantage of free bets on specific matches or ACCA Boosts.

Other brands offer refunded bets, where you receive the initial stake of the bet back as a refund. Using these sports bonuses reduces your personal financial risk while keeping the potential for a high payout. Alternatively, you can claim run rate, batting points, bowling points, and high-scoring bonuses.
