How to use this calculator: Enter your total stake and the decimal odds from two different bookmakers. If the combined implied probability (arb %) is below 100%, you have a guaranteed profit regardless of which team wins. Stake each bet at the calculated amount and you lock in the profit shown.

Arb % below 100% = guaranteed profit. The lower the number, the bigger your edge. Most cricket arbs are 1–4%. For a step-by-step guide to finding these opportunities during live matches, see our IPL arbitrage opportunities guide. To monitor live divergences in real time, open the CricEdge scanner.

Use decimal odds. If your bookmaker shows fractional odds (e.g. 11/10), convert with: decimal = (numerator/denominator) + 1. So 11/10 = 2.10.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good arb percentage? ▼
Any combined implied probability below 100% is an arb. Most cricket arbs are 1–4%. Anything above 5% is exceptional but fades fast — sophisticated traders and bookmaker risk teams spot large gaps quickly and odds tighten. A 2–3% arb that you can execute within 30 seconds is far more valuable than a 6% arb that has already closed by the time you place the second bet.
How do I calculate arbitrage stakes? ▼
Divide 1 by each bookmaker's decimal odds to get the implied probability. If the sum of all implied probabilities is below 1.00 (100%), you have an arb. Allocate your total stake proportionally: Stake A = Total × (1/OddsA) ÷ Total_Arb_Decimal. Stake B = Total − Stake A. This calculator does all of this automatically as you type.
Which bookmakers are best for cricket arbitrage? ▼
Bet365, Betfair Exchange, Sportsbet, and Polymarket consistently show the widest cricket odds spreads. Betfair Exchange is particularly important because it almost never restricts winning customers — keeping it as one leg of every arb protects your account longevity. CricEdge scans all of them every 5 seconds at the live terminal.
Why doesn't my guaranteed profit match at both bookmakers? ▼
If the returned amounts are slightly different, it is due to rounding of your stake values. In practice, round your stakes to the nearest whole number (or unit your bookmaker accepts). Both returns will be very close — the guaranteed profit is the lower of the two. Always double-check by multiplying your exact stake by the odds before placing.
