Basic IPL Betting Rules on Lotus365

Rule 1: Match Fixture Rule

The Rule:
If the IPL fixture of 74 matches gets reduced due to any reason, then all the special fancies will be voided.

What This Means:

• IPL normally has 74 matches in the tournament
• If the total number of matches is reduced (for example, to 72 or 70 matches), all special fancy bets will be cancelled
• Your money will be returned for these voided bets

Exception:

• Matches abandoned due to rain or bad light will NOT cause fancies to be voided
• Only if the total tournament matches are reduced, fancies become void

Example:

• If IPL normally has 74 matches but due to any reason only 70 matches are played
• All special fancy bets will be voided
• But if one match is abandoned due to rain, other fancies remain valid

Rule 2: Result Validity Rule

The Rule:
At any situation if result is given for any particular event based on the rates given for the same, then the particular result will be considered valid. Similarly, if the tournament gets canceled due to any reason the previously given result will be considered valid.

• Once a result is given for a betting event on Lotus365, that result is final
• The result will be considered valid even if the tournament is later cancelled
• You cannot claim the result was wrong after it has been given

Example:

• If a player is given as “Highest Run Scorer” with ₹100 odds
