↑ 7-day trend: Average vig has worsened by 1.57 percentage points over the past week (from 4.75% to 6.32%). Odds margins are widening, meaning bettors are getting less value per wager.
International Twenty20 cricket offers one of the most volatile and fast-moving betting environments in global sport. Matches last roughly three hours, with each side facing just 120 deliveries, meaning a single over or dropped catch can drastically shift momentum and outcomes. This compressed format produces higher variance than Test or ODI cricket, which appeals to bettors who understand how to price short-form matchups. Market depth is substantial for high-profile events like the ICC T20 World Cup, bilateral series between Full Member nations, and marquee matchups involving India, Australia, or England. However, for contests featuring Associate nations or less prominent bilateral tours, liquidity thins out and markets become more limited — often restricted to match winner, top batsman, and basic totals.
Vig on International T20 markets varies considerably depending on the profile of the fixture. For World Cup knockouts and India's matches, sportsbooks compete aggressively and margins on match-winner lines can compress to the 3–5% range. For lower-profile bilateral series — say, a Netherlands-Scotland T20 — margins frequently widen to 6–8% or more, as books price in their own uncertainty and expect lower handle. Prop and innings-specific markets tend to carry higher juice across the board, making line shopping particularly valuable in those secondary markets.
The international T20 calendar runs year-round but peaks during ICC tournaments (typically held in June or October/November) and during the northern hemisphere summer when England, and southern hemisphere summer when Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand host touring sides. Odds tend to be sharpest during these peak windows when bookmaker competition intensifies. Key factors influencing T20 odds include pitch conditions — some grounds are notorious for high-scoring affairs while others grip and assist spinners — as well as dew factor in day-night matches, squad rotation during long bilateral series, and the form players carry in from domestic T20 leagues. Home advantage is significant in T20Is, with familiarity with local surfaces and conditions regularly producing measurable home-team edges in historical results.

What is vig (vigorish) in sports betting?
Vig — short for vigorish, also called juice or overround — is the margin a sportsbook builds into its odds. It's the difference between the true probability of an outcome and what the odds imply. Lower vig means you keep more of your winnings on every bet. For example, a standard -110/-110 line has about 4.76% vig.
How often is this data updated?
We pull fresh odds from The Odds API every hour, on the hour (UTC). Each snapshot captures the latest lines from every sportsbook that has posted odds. The timestamp at the top of the page shows the most recent refresh.
How is the vig grade calculated?
Each sportsbook is graded on average vig: A+ (under 2%) is exchange-level pricing, A (2–3%) very competitive, B+ (3–4%) above average, B (4–5%) the industry standard, C+ (5–6%) slightly below average, C (6–7%) below average, D (7–8%) high vig, D− (8–10%) very high, F (10%+) predatory.
Why does lower vig matter for bettors?
Lower vig directly impacts your long-term returns. A bettor placing $1,000 per week at a book with 4% vig loses roughly $40/week to the house edge. At 2% vig, that drops to $20/week — a $1,040 difference over a year. For serious bettors, shopping for lower vig is one of the most reliable ways to improve profitability.
What sportsbooks do you track?
We track both regulated US sportsbooks (DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Caesars) and offshore books (Bovada, BetOnline, MyBookie, BetUS, LowVig.ag, BetAnything). Data comes from The Odds API, which aggregates real-time lines from licensed sources.
How We Calculate These Numbers
- Data Source
- All odds on this page come from The Odds API, which aggregates real-time lines from licensed US and offshore sportsbooks. We track moneyline, spread, and totals markets across every sport with active betting lines.
- Update Frequency
- We pull a fresh snapshot of every tracked market every hour, on the hour (UTC). Each snapshot captures the latest lines from every sportsbook that has posted odds for a given event. The timestamp at the top of each page tells you exactly when the data was last refreshed.
- Vig Calculation
- Vig (short for vigorish, also called juice or overround) measures the margin a sportsbook builds into its odds. We calculate it by converting the odds on each side of a market to implied probabilities, summing those probabilities, and subtracting 100%. For example, a market priced at -110/-110 implies 52.38% on each side — a total of 104.76%, meaning a vig of 4.76%. Lower vig means better value for bettors because you keep more of your winnings.
- Per-Market Breakdown
- We compute vig separately for each market type: moneyline (h2h), point spreads, and totals (over/under). The "average vig" shown for each sportsbook is the mean across all market types weighted by the number of events sampled in each market.
- Grading Scale
- Every sportsbook receives a letter grade based on its average vig: A+ (under 2%) is exchange-level pricing. A (2–3%) is very competitive. B+ (3–4%) is above average. B (4–5%) is the industry standard — a -110/-110 line is 4.76%. C+ (5–6%) is slightly below average. C (6–7%) is below average. D (7–8%) is high vig. D− (8–10%) is very high vig. F (10%+) is predatory pricing. See the full Vig Index Methodology for formulas, worked examples, and known limitations.
- Trend Tracking
- We store daily snapshots for 30 days, allowing us to show 24-hour and 7-day vig trends. A downward trend (improving) means sportsbooks are tightening their lines — often in response to increased competition or higher betting volume as a season heats up.
