What really helped me understand this better was reading through this explanation on https://cricketcupworld.com/blog/psychology-of-momentum-in-cricket-how-it-impacts-live-odds/ . It breaks down how momentum affects not just the scoreboard, but also the mental state of the players — especially how confidence surges or dips suddenly after a few key moments. This shift often makes the opposing team uneasy, which can lead to mistakes and swings in the betting odds. I started paying attention to these psychological signals like body language and reaction times, and it changed how I watch matches and place live bets. Instead of just following the numbers, I watch how momentum builds and look for odds that haven’t yet caught up with those shifts. It’s become a big part of how I try to read the game beyond the surface.
