What the cricket board actually shows right now

We are pricing 30 cricket fixtures across 17 South African bookmakers as this page was built, 54 of the outcomes on them quoted by enough books to compare. On the typical cricket bet, the best price and the worst differ by 2.5%, and on 14% of them the gap is over 10%. That gap is the whole argument for comparing: on a R500 bet, 2.5% is about R13 you either get or do not, for the same bet on the same outcome.

We are not naming who pays best on cricket. 54 comparable outcomes is not enough of a sample to say it, and a leader picked off one thin board read would be the most quotable thing on this page and the least true. The fixture count and the spread above are facts about the board right now; a "best bookmaker for cricket" is not, yet.

Before you act on any of this

A familiar brand, a big bonus headline, an app rating or a payment logo is not evidence that a product is licensed here. The licence number and the issuing provincial board are on every review page on this site, and you can check them against the regulator yourself.

Open the review before the bookmaker. It names the legal entity holding the licence, the board that issued it and the date we last checked, which is the part that is hard to find and the part that matters if something goes wrong.
