x99 bd Cricket Betting — Bet on BPL, IPL and International Matches
From T20 to Test — x99 bd offers betting on all cricket formats for fans in Bangladesh. Live odds on match winner, toss, top batsman and many other markets update every moment.
The Three Cricket Formats and Major Tournaments
Each format is played differently, so betting approaches differ as well. Below is a brief overview of the key features of each format and the popular tournaments.
T20
In this 20-over format, every ball counts. Fast scoring and frequent momentum shifts mean live betting odds move fastest here. BPL, IPL, and the T20 World Cup are the top competitions in this format.
T20 World Cup BPL IPLODI
In a 50-over ODI, the middle phases of the game significantly influence odds. The ICC Cricket World Cup and bilateral series are popular ODI competitions. The nature of the market changes once a batting side settles in.
ICC World Cup Bilateral SeriesTest
In five-day Test cricket, pitch conditions, weather, and the progression of innings play a major role in shaping markets. A draw is a valid result in Tests, so markets cover three outcomes: Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw.
Test Championship Bilateral Test
Tournaments Most Popular with Bangladeshi Bettors
BPL is the most closely followed tournament locally since it is Bangladesh's home competition — every franchise match carries its own level of excitement. IPL draws top players from around the world, making it equally popular among bettors in this region.
Bangladesh Tigers matches in the T20 World Cup and other ICC tournaments attract extra interest. x99 bd offers multiple betting markets for these tournament matches.
Besides cricket, x99 bd also offers betting on football and other sports. Football markets differ from cricket — football commonly features match winner, number of goals, and handicap markets, while cricket focuses more on over-based and wicket-based markets.
Popular Cricket Betting Markets
A single match can offer several markets to bet on. Here is a brief look at seven common ones.
Match Winner
Pick which team will win the match. Example: Team A or Team B — two outcomes. No draw in T20 or ODI, so it is a straight two-option choice.
Toss Winner
A separate market on which team wins the toss. This is completely independent of the match result and is settled before the game begins.
Top Batsman
Bet on who will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match. The team's batting order and pitch type are relevant factors.
Total Runs Over/Under
Choose whether the total runs scored will be above (over) or below (under) a pre-set number. Example: if the line for a T20 innings is set at 160, you bet on whether the actual total will be above or below that.
Multi Bet
Combine two or more matches or markets into a single bet. If all selections are correct the return is higher, but if one loses the whole bet is lost. See the odds example below for details.
Handicap and Player Performance
In a handicap market, the weaker team is given a virtual advantage. Player performance markets cover things like a specific bowler's wicket count or a batsman scoring a fifty.
Exchange Betting
On a betting exchange, players set and take odds among themselves. BACK means betting that Team A will win; LAY means betting that Team A will not win.
Series Winner
Bet on which team will win an entire series. Odds are most open before the first match and shift as the series progresses.
Three Odds Formats and How to Calculate Them
Odds are expressed in three ways around the world. All three convey the same probability — only the presentation differs.
The simplest method. Stake × odds = total return (including stake).
Example: Team A to win, odds 3.00, stake ৳1,000. If correct, return is ৳3,000 (profit ৳2,000 + stake ৳1,000). If wrong, ৳1,000 is lost.
The British method — numerator is profit, denominator is stake.
Example: Team A odds 2/1 means ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked. On a ৳1,000 stake, profit is ৳2,000, total return ৳3,000 — the same as decimal 3.00.
Plus (+) means underdog; minus (−) means favourite.
Example: Team A +200 means ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake. Team B -125 means you need to stake ৳125 to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳1,000 stake, Team B returns ৳1,800 (profit ৳800).
Multi Bet Odds Calculation
Three matches with decimal odds of 1.50 × 1.70 × 1.80 = 4.59 (approximate).
A ৳100 stake returns ৳459 — but all three selections must be correct. If even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
Before placing any bet, read the terms and conditions carefully — each market has its own specific rules.
Live Betting — Odds Shift When a Wicket Falls
Betting while a match is in progress is called in-play or live betting. In cricket, every wicket, every six, and every maiden over immediately moves the odds.
For example, if Team A needs 180 runs, has scored 120 in 15 overs and has 8 wickets in hand — the odds on Team A winning are fairly short at that point. But if 3 wickets fall in the next over, the odds shift quickly.
In live betting there is no certainty about what the next over will bring. Decisions should be based on reading the match situation, and bets should stay within what you can afford.
Football and Betting on Other Sports
Alongside cricket, x99 bd also offers betting on football and other international sports. Popular football markets include match winner, both teams to score, total goals, and handicap. Cricket-style wicket-based specialist markets do not exist in football.
For those interested in casino games beyond cricket and football, the virtual casino section has live dealer tables and virtual games.
Those interested in card games will find full details in the Teen Patti 20-20 section — that page covers the game's introduction and rules separately.

Practical Advice for Cricket Betting
Set Your Budget First
Decide how much you will bet before each session. Set aside only what you can afford to lose — betting with winnings makes it harder to track your spending.
Choose Markets Based on the Format
In T20, runs in the last 5 overs matter a lot. In ODI, the pace of the middle overs after the powerplay can shift odds. In Test cricket, spinners may become more effective on a worn pitch in the second innings.
Be Careful with Multi Bets
A multi bet with three selections requires all of them to be correct. If one loses, the whole bet is gone. The more selections you add, the harder it is to win the full bet.
Betting Is for Entertainment
Betting is for enjoyment — not as a way to earn income. If you are losing consistently, take a break. Read the responsible gaming guidelines to understand your own limits.
Quick Decisions in Live Betting
Odds in in-play markets change in seconds. Rather than rushing into large bets, placing smaller bets at specific moments in the match is more manageable.
Cricket betting and all other features at x99 bd are available only to those aged 21 or older. Please play responsibly.
