You are following a tight chase, a wicket falls and the market you were watching suddenly shows “Suspended”. A few moments later, it reopens with different prices. If you are new to live cricket markets, this can feel confusing. A market suspension is a short, planned pause. On Tiger365, it happens so that every user gets a fair price based on what has actually happened on the field, not on a delivery that is still being decided. This guide explains when markets pause, why prices change when they reopen and what you should do while you wait.
What Is a Market Suspension?
A suspension means a market is temporarily closed for new bets. The prices disappear or are greyed out, and you cannot place a bet until the market reopens.
A suspension does not mean the match is over or the market has been cancelled. It simply means the match situation is changing, and the market is waiting for the new situation to become clear.
Which Tiger365 Markets Pause and When?
Tigerexchange 365 offers three main cricket market formats, and each one behaves a little differently during a live match:
- Bookmaker Odds: These markets are suspended while each ball is being bowled and reopen between deliveries. You place Bookmaker bets in the gaps between balls.
- Fancy markets: Session runs, over runs and player runs follow their own rules and can pause at key moments in the match, such as a wicket or the end of a session.
- Live Odds: These are exchange back and lay prices that keep trading through the match. Tiger365 adds no bet delay on Live Odds, so your bet is placed at the price you see.
The live feed and scoreboard on Tiger365 update with less than a one-second delay, which helps you see what caused a pause almost as soon as it happens.
Why Cricket Markets Are Suspended
The simple answer is uncertainty. One delivery can bring a wicket, a boundary, a no-ball, a run-out or a review. Until the result of that delivery is confirmed, the previous price no longer reflects the match.
Imagine a batter appears to be caught behind and the umpire sends the decision for review. Until the review is complete, the batter could be out or not out. A short pause stops anyone from betting on a result that some users may see a few seconds earlier than others. This keeps the market fair for everyone.
Common Reasons for a Suspension
Wickets
A wicket can change the direction of an innings in a single ball, especially when a set batter is dismissed. Markets often pause while the dismissal is confirmed and the new batter walks in.
DRS Reviews and Umpire Decisions
Catches, LBW calls and run-outs can take time to check. Once the third umpire confirms the decision, the market can reopen with prices based on the final call.
Injuries
If a key batter or bowler is injured, it is unclear whether they will continue. Player markets linked to that player are usually affected the most.
Rain, Bad Light and Ground Conditions
Under ICC playing conditions, umpires can stop play when the weather, light or ground is unsafe. A long delay can reduce the number of overs and change the target, so markets may stay paused until the new playing conditions are confirmed.
Why Prices Change When a Market Reopens
When a market reopens, the prices reflect the match as it is now, not as it was before the pause. Take a team chasing 160 that is 120 for 3 after 16 overs when the market pauses for a possible wicket:
- If the batter is given out, the chasing side has lost a key wicket, and its price is likely to drift.
- If the decision is overturned, the batter stays in, and the price may move back towards where it was.
Other changes can have the same effect. A rain delay can cut the overs, a revised target can change the required rate, and an injury can change who is available to bat or bowl. In each case, the reopened price is based on the updated match.
Suspended Is Not the Same as Closed
A suspended market is expected to reopen once the situation is clear. A closed market is finished, usually because its result has been decided, such as a session that has been completed. If you see “Suspended”, wait for the market to reopen rather than assuming it has been cancelled.
Why Different Markets Pause at Different Times
Each market is built around a different question. A match winner market may move after a big wicket, while a next-over or player market can be affected far more. If a bowler leaves the field injured, a market on that bowler’s performance becomes much more uncertain than the overall match result. Knowing what each market measures helps you understand why one pauses and another does not.
What to Do When a Market Is Suspended
- Check what happened: Look at the scoreboard and live updates for a wicket, review, injury or weather break.
- Wait for confirmation: Let the decision or the resumption of play be confirmed before you plan your next bet.
- Ignore the old price: The last price shown before the pause may already be out of date.
- Reassess when it reopens: Look at the score, overs, wickets and required rate again before placing a new bet.
- Check your P/L: Your account statement and P/L are shown in the ribbon at the bottom of every Tiger365 page.
Common Misunderstandings About Suspended Markets
- A suspension is not a fault with the platform. It is a normal part of live cricket markets.
- A market does not always reopen at the same price. If the match changed, the price will too.
- Not every wicket causes the same length of pause. It depends on the event, the review process and the market type.
