What is a Simulated Reality League?
An SRL is a sports league that is a virtual sporting event simulating real-life conditions and mirroring expectations. Simulated reality leagues create virtual events that feel as close to real-life sports as possible, featuring real teams and players.
Developers use real-life statistics, historical data, and information to create an algorithm that delivers the outcome of simulated reality events. Using the power of artificial intelligence and graphics imaging, these virtual matches are able to accurately reflect what you'd expect from real-life events. Most simulated fixtures take place in real-time, taking 60-90 minutes, depending on the sport in question.
What Sports Have Simulated Reality Leagues?
The good news is that you can bet on various sports, as there are many different simulated leagues to choose from. Simulated reality versions of soccer and cricket are particularly popular amongst keen sports bettors, with virtual games and simulated matches available to bet on.

Popular Types of SRL Bets & Betting Markets
You can place a whole host of bets on simulated reality leagues, including the following betting options:
Outright: An outright bet is a wager on the team you think will win an SRL tournament outright. So, for instance, you could back the Delhi Capitals to win the SRL IPL.
Moneyline: A moneyline wager is a straight-up bet on the team you think will win a specific SRL fixture. So, you might pick Napoli to beat Bologna in an SRL Serie A fixture.
Handicap: A handicap bet is a match outcome bet with a handicap applied. For instance, if you back Rangers to beat Servette in the Europa League with a handicap of 1.5, they would need to win by two clear goals for your bet to payout.
Parlay: An SRL parlay is a bet on multiple outcomes in the same slip. So, for example, you could bet on Sri Lanka, England, and Bangladesh in a 3-way SRL T20 parlay. All three nations would have to win their international T20 for your bet to be successful. Similar to this, you can place same game multi bets using our 'Bet Builder' function.
Over/Under: An SRL over/under bet is a total chance on the number of points, goals, or runs scored. For instance, you might place a wager on a SRL Super Lig matchup between Besiktas and Galatasaray to deliver 3.5+ goals.
Props: SRL proposition bets are wagers on events that aren’t tied to the end outcome of a particular fixture. So, in an SRL Big Bash match, you might place a prop bet on the first wicket-taker or the scorer of the first six in the contest.
