What happens if a match finishes in a tie in test cricket?
In Test Match cricket if the match finishes in a tie, all bets on either team are paid as per the Dead-Heat rule, while bets on the Draw are resulted as losing bets.
If a match is officially abandoned, (e.g. due to dangerous pitch conditions etc.) then all undecided bets on the match are void. Bets on Domestic First-Class matches (4 or 5 day matches) will be paid on most points by team.
What happens if there is a tie in any form of limited overs cricket?
In all forms of limited over cricket, if the match finishes in a tie, all bets are paid as per the Dead-Heat rule -unless a subsequent tie-breaker method is used to determine the winner (e.g. Super-Over, Bowl-off etc.)
Therefore, the outcome will be settled on the result of this method. If the match is declared a 'no-result' bets are void. Note that all exotic betting options are resulted prior to any tiebreaker. If a match is transferred to a reserve day, all wagers will stand.
