Betting rules

These rules explain how KhelKing settles every bet, starting with the general rules and then cricket, other sports and the live casino. They apply to every bet on your account. If a market shows its own rule when you place the bet, that rule takes priority.

Confirmed bets

A bet is accepted once it appears in your open bets. After that it can't be changed or cancelled.

Suspended markets

We can suspend a market at any time, and no bets are accepted while it's suspended.

Late bets

A pre-match bet placed after the event has started, or after the outcome is known, is void and the stake is returned.

Official result

Markets settle on the official result declared when the event ends. Later changes, such as appeals, disqualifications or corrected scorecards, don't change a bet that has already settled.

Palpable errors

If a bet was accepted at a price that was obviously wrong, it's settled at the correct price or voided.

Dead heats

When selections tie, the stake is split between them and each part is paid at full odds.

Void bets

A void bet is treated as if it was never placed, and the stake goes back to your balance.

T20, ODI and The Hundred

Settled on the official winner, including any super over or other tie-breaker.

Official tie

If there's no tie-breaker, bets are settled as a dead heat.

Rain and reduced overs

Settled on the official result, including results decided by DLS.

No result

If a match is abandoned or declared no result, match odds bets are void.

Test matches

If the match is drawn, bets on either team lose and bets on the draw win.

Settlement

On the batting team's runs at the end of the stated over, including extras and penalty runs.

Innings ends early

The session settles on the innings' final total.

Unbowled or reduced

A session is void if none of its overs is bowled, unless the result is already decided. It's also void if the overs are reduced after the market opened.

Super over

Runs scored in a super over don't count towards any session.

The same event can affect each cricket market differently. This table puts the rules side by side.

Player runs and wickets

Settled on the official scorecard. Bets on a player who isn't in the playing XI are void. A retired batter is settled on their runs at retirement, unless they come back to bat.

Fall of wicket and partnerships

Settled on the score when the wicket falls, or on the innings total if it never falls.

Super overs

Don't count for fancy or player markets.

Toss

Settled on the official toss result. If no toss takes place, all toss bets are void.

Football

Settled at the end of normal time, including stoppage time. Extra time and penalties don't count unless the market says so. Abandoned or postponed matches are void unless the result is already decided.

Tennis

If a player retires or is disqualified after the first set is completed, the player who goes through is the winner. Before that, match winner bets are void.

Kabaddi, horse racing and esports

Settled on the official result. Bets on a competitor who doesn't take part are void.

Each round settles on the dealt result, which you can see on the stream and in your bet history. If the studio interrupts a round, bets on it are void and stakes are returned.

Losing your own connection doesn't void a round. It plays out and settles on the dealt result.

Most markets settle within 5 to 15 minutes of the result. Events that run over several days, such as Test matches, can take longer.

To dispute a settlement, contact support within 7 days. Include the match, market, stake, odds and the time you placed the bet. We check it against the official result and these rules. If you disagree with the decision, you can appeal to our compliance team.
