Cricket Betting at 99xo — All Formats from T20 to Test
From the excitement of BPL nights to the tense moments of international series — 99xo offers betting on every cricket format. Test your analysis across multiple markets including match winner, toss, and top batter.
Cricket Formats and Competitions
The main appeal of cricket betting lies in its three distinct formats — each has a completely different pace, strategy and type of result, so the style of betting changes accordingly.
T20: This twenty-over format is the fastest-paced. A single six or wicket can change the face of a match in moments. Both BPL and IPL are T20 competitions, and these two series carry a special passion for Bangladeshi fans. The T20 World Cup also generates great excitement year after year.
ODI: In a fifty-over match, teams build their plans gradually. Managing the balance between run rate and wickets during the middle overs is important here, which gives bettors the opportunity to analyze markets at various points.
Test: This five-day format is a true test of a team's overall strength. A draw is a valid result here, so there is an opportunity to bet on three types of outcome — which is not generally available in T20 or ODI.
Football and Other Sports
At 99xo, football gets a prominent place alongside cricket. A football match generally has three outcomes — team A wins, team B wins, or a draw. Because of these three paths, football odds are calculated differently from cricket's two-outcome (T20/ODI) betting.
In football, additional markets such as number of goals, half-time score or corner kicks are available, which do not exist in cricket. On the other hand, cricket offers far more detailed over-by-over statistics, giving in-play betting a different depth.
Markets are also available for tennis, kabaddi and other sports, but cricket and football remain the most popular betting sports in Bangladesh.
Football Betting
Three outcomes, goal markets, half-time/full-time — a different structure from cricket.
Cricket Betting
Two outcomes (T20/ODI), three outcomes (Test), detailed over-based markets.
Other Sports
Match-winner and props markets across tennis, kabaddi and several other sports.
Live Betting
Odds change during the match — real-time markets across all sports.
Popular Betting Markets
In cricket betting, you are not limited to just one question — "who will win". Below is a brief introduction to some familiar markets available at 99xo.
Match Winner
The simplest market — which team will win the match, team A or team B.
Toss Winner
A bet on the toss result before the match begins — a separate market in cricket.
Top Batter
Which batter will score the most runs for their team — this market lets you choose from multiple names.
Total Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs in a match or an innings will be more or less than a set number.
Multi Bet
Combining multiple selections into one bet — the full return is paid only if all selections are correct.
Man of the Match
Who will be the best performer of the match — this special market generally carries higher odds.
How Odds Are Written
Odds are written in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability, only the way of presenting them differs.
| Format | If team A wins (stake ৳1,000) | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Total return ৳3,000 including stake (৳2,000 profit) |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 |
| American | +200 | ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake |
Favourite example: team B's odds at decimal 1.25 = fractional 1/4 = American -400. A ৳1,000 stake returns ৳1,250 if it wins (৳250 profit). Negative American odds show how much you need to stake to make 100 in profit.
At 99xo, odds are generally shown in decimal format because it is easier to read. Before starting to bet, it is worth understanding your preferred format well — placing a bet with a miscalculation will not give the expected return. Reading the responsible gaming guidelines will make it easier to set betting limits.
Live In-Play Betting
In-play betting is the opportunity to place bets while a match is in progress. After each over and after each wicket, odds are reset to reflect the current state of the match.
Say in a T20 match, team A has scored only 25 runs in the first five overs and lost two wickets. In this situation, team B's odds of winning will shorten (they become the favourite) and team A's odds will lengthen. The odds that were available before the match started no longer apply.
In ODI, after the powerplay ends, analyzing the run rate in the mid-innings can lead to new assessments in in-play markets. In Test, after the day's play, separate markets are formed for the next day based on the wicket and run positions.
There is less time to decide in in-play betting, so it is important to read the market terms in advance. You will find detailed in-play betting rules on the terms and conditions page.
Practical Tips for Betting
- Understand the format first: The rules of T20, ODI and Test are different, so the same market works differently across formats. Read the market terms carefully.
- Stick to your budget: Betting is a form of entertainment — staying within a set budget keeps it enjoyable for longer.
- Explore multiple markets: Looking beyond just the match winner at markets like total runs or top batter opens up different types of analysis.
- Be careful with multi bets: Even though combined odds are higher in a multi bet, the risk is much greater. If any one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
- No rushing in in-play: Odds change fast in live betting. Keep a clear head when making decisions — it is better not to place large bets on impulse.
- Take breaks: Betting for long stretches lets fatigue affect your decisions. Taking regular breaks is a good habit.
Responsible Betting
Always approach betting as entertainment — not as a source of income. Do not place large bets in an attempt to recover money you have lost.
