Total Runs In The Highest Scoring Over In Match In Cricket Sport Betting

In cricket sport betting, the market “Total Runs in the Highest Scoring Over in the Match” refers to:

Definition:

A bet on the number of runs scored in the single over that produces the most runs in the entire match (including both teams).

How It Works:

• An “over” consists of 6 legal deliveries.
• You’re betting on how many runs will be scored in the most productive over of the entire match.
• This can come from any over in either team’s innings.

Example:

Suppose the match has the following top overs:

• Team 1: 18th over = 20 runs
• Team 2: 16th over = 24 runs
• Highest scoring over = 24 runs
• If you bet “Over 22.5” and the highest over is 24 runs → You win.
• If you bet “Under 22.5” → You lose.

Common Betting Lines:

• Over/Under 16.5, 18.5, 20.5, 22.5, 24.5, etc.

Tips to Consider:

• T20 matches are more likely to have overs with 20+ runs.
• Look at:
  • Power hitters (e.g., Russell, Maxwell)
  • Short boundaries
  • Flat pitch
  • Weak bowling attack (especially death overs)
