Cricket Betting at tk99 — Bet on all matches from BPL to the T20 World Cup
Betting on Bangladesh's most popular sport is now easier. tk99 offers various types of cricket betting, from match winner to over-by-over markets.
Cricket Formats and Tournaments
There are three main formats for cricket betting — T20, ODI and Test. The pace, strategy and type of result differ across each format, so the betting experience varies too.
T20 is the fastest format — results can change very quickly in just 20 overs. BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup are the most familiar to Bangladeshi fans. Watching a BPL match in Dhaka and following the Bangladesh Tigers' performance brings a different kind of excitement.
ODI is a full 50-over match where both strategy and patience matter. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in the ODI format.
Test cricket is a long five-day contest — the betting range is different here, as pitch conditions, weather and the result of each session all affect the overall match.
Football and Other Sports Betting
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football at tk99. Football has three possible outcomes — home win, away win and draw — whereas limited-overs cricket matches generally have no draw. This difference is also reflected in how the odds are structured.
In cricket, the pace of the match shifts with every wicket and over, making live betting especially dynamic. In football, markets change between goals.

- Live: Over-by-over markets are more varied in cricket
Popular Betting Markets
Various types of markets are available for cricket betting at tk99. Below are the most familiar markets with a general example for each.
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which team will win. No draw in T20 and ODI, so there are only two options.
Simple MarketToss
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. Since both teams have roughly equal chances, the odds tend to be close.
Pre-MatchTop Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in the innings — this market requires you to pick the top scorer within a specific team.
Player MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
Whether runs will be above or below a set number — for example, whether a T20 innings will exceed 160 runs.
Runs MarketMulti Bet
Combine multiple selections into one bet. If all selections are correct the return is higher, but one wrong selection and the entire bet is lost.
Multi SelectionWicket Market
How many wickets will fall within a set number of overs, or how many wickets a particular bowler will take — this market is especially changeable during live betting.
Live MarketSay you pick Team A, Team B and Team A to win in three different matches — the three selections have decimal odds of 1.50, 1.60 and 1.90 respectively. The combined odds are 1.50 × 1.60 × 1.90 = 4.56 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳456 if all three are correct — but if even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost. Multi bets are for entertainment, not a strategy for guaranteed profit.
A Simple Guide to Understanding Odds
Betting odds are written in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. tk99 generally uses decimal format, but it is useful to understand the others too.
Team A to win, stake ৳1,000. Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. If Team A wins, ৳2,250 is returned (৳1,250 profit + ৳1,000 stake). If Team A loses, ৳1,000 is gone.
Team B to win (favourite): Decimal 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American -125. American minus odds show how much you need to bet to make ৳100 profit. A ৳1,000 bet returns ৳1,800 (৳800 profit).
Decimal odds are the simplest — multiply the full number by your stake to get your total return.
Cricket Match Winner Example
In a limited-overs match, Team A's odds are 2.10 and Team B's odds are 1.75. Betting ৳1,000 on Team B returns ৳1,750 if Team B wins (৳750 profit); if Team A wins, ৳1,000 is lost. These numbers are purely for illustration — there is no guarantee of winning.
Live In-Play Betting
Placing bets after a match has started is called live or in-play betting. In cricket this is especially dynamic — odds shift with every wicket, every six hit or every low-scoring over.
For example, if Team A is batting and two wickets have fallen in the first five overs, Team A's odds of winning may rise (meaning their probability has dropped), while Team B's odds may shorten. Similarly, a run of fours and sixes will shorten Team A's odds.
In live betting, decisions must be made quickly and markets may sometimes be temporarily closed. This is part of the entertainment — it is not an easy way to make money.

A Few Practical Points Before You Start Betting
Cricket betting is a form of entertainment. There is no guaranteed method of winning and every bet carries the risk of losing money. Keeping the following points in mind before you start gives you a better chance of a positive experience.
- Set a budget: Only bet what you can afford to lose.
- Understand one market well: Match winner or total runs — it is better to start with a simple market.
- Learn to read decimal odds: Multiply the number by your stake to get the total return — the calculation is straightforward.
- No rushing in live betting: In-play markets change fast — avoid placing large bets on impulse.
- Be careful with multi bets: Adding more selections increases the potential return, but one wrong pick and everything is lost.
- Play responsibly: If you feel something is wrong, read the responsible gaming guidelines.
About Betting Exchange
A betting exchange has two roles — BACK and LAY. BACK means betting on a team to win; LAY means betting on a team not to win.
BACK Team A with ৳1,000 — if Team A wins, ৳800 profit (before commission); if not, ৳1,000 is lost.
LAY Team A (assuming the backer's stake is ৳1,000) — your liability is ৳800 (৳1,000 × 0.80); if Team A does not win, you gain ৳1,000; if they do win, you pay ৳800.
