Cricket Betting at 99 taka — T20 to Test, BPL to World Cup
Cricket is the most popular sport in Bangladesh. 99 taka offers betting on every format of cricket — from Match Winner to live in-play. Here you will find a detailed guide on betting markets, how to understand odds, and how to enjoy it responsibly.
Cricket's Three Formats and Major Tournaments
Cricket is broadly divided into three formats — T20, ODI (One Day International), and Test. Each format has its own character, so betting strategies differ accordingly.
T20: In this format of just twenty overs, the game can shift rapidly. A six or a wicket can change the whole picture of a match. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are played in this format, and the T20 World Cup is also especially popular among cricket fans.
ODI: In a fifty-over match, the pace of play builds a little more gradually. Both the opening powerplay and the final overs carry their own distinct importance.
Test: This five-day format requires patience and long-term planning in both bowling and batting. Wickets, pitch conditions, and weather all combine to shift the situation.
Interest in the Bangladesh Tigers is highest among cricket fans across the country, including Dhaka, during the BPL season and international series.
How Betting Differs in Football and Other Sports
At 99 taka, alongside cricket, you can also bet on football and a few other sports. However, each sport has a different structure — the difference becomes clear when you compare cricket and football betting markets.
In football, the Match Winner market typically has three outcome options: Team A wins, Team B wins, or a draw. But in T20 cricket there is no draw — so only two possibilities need to be considered. In Test matches, however, a draw is possible, making the market somewhat similar to football.
Cricket has specialist markets like Top Batsman, First Wicket to Fall, or runs in a specific over — these do not exist in football. On the other hand, handicap betting, which is common in football, is also available in cricket, expressed as a run margin.
99 taka also has casino games — those who want to enjoy something beyond sports can find slots, live casino, and table games at 99 taka Casino.
Popular Cricket Betting Markets
Below is a brief overview of the seven most commonly used markets in cricket betting. The way you bet differs slightly in each market.
Match Winner
Betting on which team will win the match. In T20 and ODI there are only two options, while in Test a draw is also included. Example: if you bet on Team A to win and Team A loses or the match is drawn, the bet is lost.
Toss Winner
A bet on which team will win the toss. This is entirely based on chance, so both teams have an equal probability. Odds are generally even or very close to it.
Top Batsman
Which batsman in a team will score the most runs. Example: you pick one of five batsmen from Team A — if your pick scores the highest, the bet is won.
Total Runs (Over/Under)
Whether the total runs in an innings or a full match will be more than (Over) or less than (Under) a set line — that is this market. Example: if the line is 160 runs and Team A scores 175, the 'Over' bet wins.
Multi Bet
Combining the results of multiple matches or markets into a single bet. If all selections are correct, the return is higher, but if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. A detailed example is given in the Odds section below.
Wicket Market
Which bowler will take the most wickets, or how many wickets will fall within a specific number of overs. Example: betting that Team A will lose exactly 2 wickets in the first powerplay — you win if exactly 2 fall.
Understanding Odds in Three Ways
Betting odds are written in three formats: decimal, fractional, and American. At 99 taka, decimal is the most commonly used, but all three formats carry the same information.
Decimal: 2.50 | Fractional: 3/2 | American: +150
If Team A wins, the total return is ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 original stake). If Team A loses, ৳200 is lost.
Decimal: 1.80 | Fractional: 4/5 | American: -125
(A minus American odds means how much you need to stake to win ৳100.)
If Team B wins, total return is ৳360 (৳160 profit).
Decimal odds are the simplest — just multiply the original stake by the odds to get the total return. In fractional odds, the first number is the profit and the second is the original stake.
In-Play Betting — Odds Change with Every Wicket
Live in-play betting means placing bets while the match is in progress. The main difference from regular pre-match betting is that odds change at every moment.
For example: if Team A gets off to a good start in T20, their odds of winning shorten (meaning they become the favourite) and Team B's odds lengthen. But once a wicket falls for Team A, the situation can reverse in an instant.
Odds usually shift significantly after the powerplay ends or when the death overs begin. In Test matches, pitch conditions, rain breaks, and the use of the new ball all have a direct impact on live odds.

Some Practical Tips for Cricket Betting
- 1 Understand the match format before placing a bet. T20 requires quick decisions, while Test gives you more time to assess the situation gradually.
- 2 Set a fixed budget and stick to it. Betting is for entertainment — never treat it as a source of income.
- 3 If you place a multi bet, remember — higher odds mean higher risk. If not all selections are correct, the entire bet is lost.
- 4 Avoid rushing in live betting. Odds moving quickly does not always mean an opportunity.
- 5 Build the habit of betting responsibly. Detailed guidance on this can be found on the Responsible Gaming page.
- 6 Read the betting rules and terms carefully beforehand. All rules are clearly stated on the Terms and Conditions page.
