Cricket Betting at bd89 — bet on all formats from T20 to Test
Popular markets for all major cricket tournaments including BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup, a simple guide to reading odds, and live in-play betting — all available together at bd89.
Cricket Formats and Tournaments — what makes each one different
Just as cricket fans in Bangladesh enjoy all three formats on the field, betting on each format at bd89 offers its own distinct experience.
T20 cricket is the fastest format — matches wrap up in just 20 overs, so betting results are known quickly too. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL (Indian Premier League) attract the most interest from Bangladeshi fans. National team matches at the T20 World Cup also bring heavy traffic to bd89.
ODI matches span 50 overs, which means more options for innings-by-innings betting. Situations change more gradually, so odds move with each session.
Test Cricket is a five-day format — a draw is a distinct result here, so you can bet on three outcomes (Team A wins / Team B wins / Draw), which is not available in T20 or ODI. ICC Test Championship matches are also available on bd89.
| Format | Duration | Popular Tournaments | Betting Highlights |
|---|---|---|---|
| T20 | 20 Overs | BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup | Quick results, more in-play opportunities |
| ODI | 50 Overs | ICC Cricket World Cup, bilateral series | Wide range of session-based markets |
| Test | 5 Days | ICC Test Championship | Odds on three outcomes including Draw |
Football & Other Sports Betting
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football at bd89. From European leagues to international matches — the football market is broad. However, there are some key differences between the betting structure of cricket and football.
In cricket, odds shift over-by-over during a match — a wicket or a sudden change in run rate triggers immediate market movement. In football, a goal or a red card changes odds just as quickly. That said, the number of betting markets in cricket differs from football — markets like the toss, top batsman, or highest wicket-taker are specific to cricket.
Betting options are also available on Kabaddi, tennis, basketball and other sports, though cricket has the strongest following in Bangladesh.
If you want to place a single bet across multiple match results, you'll find a detailed guide in the multi-bet section — it explains how to add multiple selections together and how combined odds are calculated.
Popular Cricket Betting Markets
From match results to individual performances — bd89 offers a wide range of markets to bet on in cricket.
Match Winner
Which team will win the match — this is the most straightforward market. In T20 or ODI there are only two outcomes; in Test, a draw is also possible. Example: Team A's odds are 2.10, Team B's are 1.75 — if you pick Team B, a ৳1,000 bet returns ৳1,750 on a win (৳750 profit).
EasiestToss Betting
Which team will win the toss — a bet on this single moment alone. It is entirely separate from everything else in the match, since the result is known before the game begins.
Quick ResultTop Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in the match — this market requires picking one player from a team. You can decide based on the team's batting order and current form.
Specialist MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
Whether the total runs in a match or an innings will be more than (Over) or less than (Under) a set number — this market has nothing to do with which team wins or loses; only the run count matters.
Run-BasedTop Wicket Taker
Which bowler will take the most wickets — this market is more interesting on bowling-friendly pitches. In short formats like T20, death-over bowlers tend to be relevant.
Bowling FocusMulti Bet (Multiple Markets)
You can add multiple matches or markets to a single ticket. If all selections win, the odds are multiplied — so the risk is higher, but so is the potential return. Detailed rules for Multi Bet are on a separate page.
Combined OddsLearn to read odds — three formats explained simply
Odds are written in three formats — Decimal, Fractional, and American. bd89 generally uses the Decimal format, but knowing all three makes it easy to read any odds.
Example 1 — The same odds in three formats
Team A to win, bet ৳200:
All three formats express the same odds. If the bet wins, you get back ৳450 (৳250 profit + ৳200 stake). If the bet loses, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Favourite's odds
Team B to win (favourite), bet ৳200:
If Team B wins, you get back ৳360 on a ৳200 bet (৳160 profit). A favourite's odds are always lower than the underdog's — lower risk, lower return.
Live In-Play Betting — placing bets while the match is on
One of the most interesting aspects of cricket is how quickly the situation can change during a match. On bd89, live betting odds update after every over, when a wicket falls, or after a big six.
Say Team A loses two quick wickets after a moderate start — Team B's odds of winning will shorten, and Team A's odds will lengthen. These shifts are where in-play bettors find their opportunities.
If runs come quickly during the Powerplay overs, the odds for Over in the Total Runs market will shorten. Similarly, if a large score is needed off the final overs, the batting team's chances drop and their odds lengthen.
In live betting you need to decide fast — so it helps to decide in advance which market you want to focus on. For easy use on mobile, the bd89 App lets you check live odds even faster.
