Cricket formats and tournaments — what kind of betting each offers
Before understanding cricket betting, it helps to know the different formats of the game. Each format has a different pace, so the betting markets available also vary.
T20
The fastest format. Each team plays 20 overs. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), IPL and the T20 World Cup are played in this format. Match results are known within a few hours, making live betting the most popular here. Odds can shift significantly within a single over.
ODI
Each team plays 50 overs. The match finishes in one day. The ICC World Cup is played in ODI format and is one of the Bangladesh Tigers' preferred stages. Odds change more gradually over longer innings, so there is more variety in the markets.
Test
Five days of long-form cricket. The result is the most uncertain of all formats — a draw is possible. Experienced bettors prefer session-based markets. Total runs over/under markets are very popular in Test betting.
BPL, IPL and International Matches
BPL is the closest tournament to Bangladesh bettors. Each match features local and international stars. IPL also draws huge interest — with 8–10 teams competing, it has the biggest range of betting markets. Beyond these, 7999 bdt also offers betting on T20 World Cup, ICC Champions Trophy, and Bangladesh series matches.

How betting on football and other sports differs
Alongside cricket, football is also very popular in Bangladesh. Betting markets for English Premier League, La Liga and FIFA World Cup matches work differently from cricket. In football, a draw is a common result — so the Match Winner market has three options: Team A wins, draw, or Team B wins.
In cricket (especially T20 and ODI) there is no draw — only two possible results. This makes odds calculations simpler and betting markets more straightforward. Over/Under 2.5 goals is a very popular market in football, while total runs or wickets markets are more common in cricket.
7999 bdt also has markets for sports like Kabaddi, Hockey and Tennis, but cricket and football offer the most options. To understand market differences, it helps to read the rules of each sport regularly and check both teams' form before a match.
7 popular betting markets and a simple introduction to each
In a cricket match you are not limited to betting on "who will win" — there are many types of markets to bet on. Below are 7 of the most commonly used markets.
Match Winner
A bet on which of the two teams will win the match. Example: if Team A plays Team B and you pick Team B, you get a return only if Team B wins.
SimpleToss Winner
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The result is entirely based on chance — the teams' relative strength plays no part here.
Quick ResultTop Batsman
A bet on which batsman will score the most runs in the match. This market may cover a specific team or the entire match.
Performance BetTotal Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the combined total runs scored by both teams will be above or below a set number. Example: will total runs in a T20 exceed 315?
Runs BasedTop Bowler
A bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. Odds in this market move depending on pitch conditions and weather.
Performance BetMulti Bet
Placing bets on multiple matches together on a single slip. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply and the return is larger, but if one loses the entire bet is lost. Example: if you bet on three matches at odds of 1.40, 1.50 and 1.90, the combined odds are 3.99 — a ৳100 bet returns ৳399 if all three win.
Multi SelectionHandicap and Over/Under
In a handicap market, the weaker team is given an advantage — for example, if Team A is given a 15-run handicap, a bet on Team A wins if Team A wins by 16 or more runs. Handicap and over/under outcomes are described in numbers, but unlike a real match, no fixed stake or return applies because the result depends entirely on the specific situation.
Odds in three formats — Decimal, Fractional and American
The same odds can be written in three different ways. Most Bangladeshi bettors prefer decimal format because the calculation is simpler. However, all three appear on international sites.
| Format | Example | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | Total return including stake is 2.5 times the bet |
| Fractional | 3/2 | ৳2 profit on a ৳2 bet |
| American | +150 | ৳150 profit on a ৳100 bet |
Working example 1 — an even-type bet
Team A to win, ৳500 stake. Odds: Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150. If Team A wins, you receive ৳1,250 back (৳750 profit + ৳500 original stake). If Team A loses, ৳500 is gone.
Working example 2 — a favourite bet
Team B is the favourite, odds Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit — here you need to stake ৳400 to earn ৳100. A ৳500 stake returns ৳625 (৳125 profit).
Live betting — odds change with every wicket and over
Live or in-play betting lets you place bets even after a match has started. In cricket, odds change instantly after every ball, wicket and powerplay. It differs from regular betting because you can make decisions while watching the match.
As an example: at the start of a match, both teams had roughly equal odds. After Team A lost two wickets in the first five overs, their odds went up (meaning the platform is showing a lower chance of them winning) and Team B's odds came down. Live betting gives you the chance to act on these changes as they happen.

A few simple tips before you start betting
Cricket betting is a form of entertainment — not a profitable profession. Keeping the tips below in mind will make the experience healthier. For more detailed guidance on betting, read our responsible gaming page.
- Set a budget — decide in advance how much you will bet each week or month, and do not go beyond that limit.
- Start with one market — the Match Winner market is the easiest for beginners; get familiar with it before placing bets across all markets at once.
- Use the mobile app — the 7999 bdt app is available on Android and iOS, making live betting easier.
- Be careful with multi bets — multiplying odds also multiplies risk; with more than three selections, the chance of winning all of them drops.
- Do not rush in live betting — odds change fast, but take your time and make decisions without acting on impulse.
- Do not place large bets to recover losses — this is one of the most common mistakes and it drains your balance quickly.
Betting is entertainment — not an investment
Every ball and every over in cricket is uncertain — that is what makes the game what it is. Betting results are no different. Do not think of betting as a serious source of income; treat it as something that adds to your interest in the match.
Every match is a chance to learn something new — reading odds, understanding markets, analysing live situations. These skills grow over time.
