Cricket Betting on betjili 99com — Complete Guide from T20 to Test, BPL to IPL
betjili 99com offers a wide range of betting markets for cricket fans in Bangladesh — from match winner to top batsman, over/under, multi bets, and live in-play betting. This guide covers what types of bets are available in each format, how to read odds, and what to keep in mind when making decisions.
Cricket's three formats and Bangladesh's favourite tournaments
To get started with cricket betting, you first need to understand the three main formats — T20, ODI, and Test. Each format has its own pace, strategy, and type of result, so the nature of the bets differs as well.
T20 is the fastest and most unpredictable format. With a match ending in just 20 overs, a big over or a wicket can change everything. This is why live betting is most popular in T20. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL (Indian Premier League) are played in this format and attract the most interest among Bangladeshi viewers.
ODI, or one-day matches, is a mid-length format — strategy plays a bigger role in 50-over cricket. The ICC Cricket World Cup and Asia Cup are held in the ODI format. Betting on the top run scorer or total runs markets in these matches is quite engaging.
Test cricket is the longest format, played over five days, where a draw is a possible result. Markets are therefore set up with three options — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw. betjili 99com also offers betting on Bangladesh Tigers Test matches.
BPL and IPL — these two T20 leagues are the most talked-about among bettors in Bangladesh. Many people feel more comfortable betting on BPL because of their familiarity with the local teams. The T20 World Cup is also a major tournament on betjili 99com's betting list.
Alongside cricket, betjili 99com also offers betting on football, tennis, badminton, and several other sports. However, this page focuses mainly on cricket, which is the first choice for bettors in Bangladesh.
Betting on football and other sports — how it differs from cricket
Football betting is somewhat different from cricket — a match lasts only 90 minutes and scores are generally low. Popular markets here include match winner, both teams to score (BTTS), first goalscorer, and handicap markets. Odds movements in football are comparatively slower because goals are less frequent.
In cricket, a single over can produce multiple events from 6 balls (wickets, boundaries, wides), whereas in football events are less frequent but a single goal can change the entire picture of a match. betjili 99com offers limited but well-defined markets for sports like Kabaddi, badminton, and tennis.
Beyond betting, those interested in casino games will find a wide selection of live casino, slots, and table games at betjili 99com Casino. Casino and sports betting can be enjoyed from the same account.
Cricket vs football betting — key differences
- There are no draws in T20 cricket — two possible results. In Test cricket, three results are possible.
- A football match typically produces 1–3 goals in 90 minutes; a cricket innings can produce 150+ runs in 20 overs.
- Cricket live odds change with every ball; in football, the main change comes after a goal.
- During the BPL and IPL seasons, the number of available cricket markets is at its highest.
Popular betting markets on betjili 99com and how they work
Multiple markets are open for each match. Below are seven of the most commonly used markets, explained in plain terms.
Match Winner
A straight bet on which team will win. In T20 and ODI there are two options (Team A or Team B); in Test cricket there are three (Team A wins, Team B wins, draw). The simplest market and the most suitable for beginners.
Toss Winner
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts — this depends purely on luck, not team strength. Odds for both sides are usually about equal.
Top Batsman
A bet on which batter will score the most runs in the match. Batting order and pitch conditions are worth considering — this is an engaging market when factored in carefully.
Total Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs scored in an entire innings or a set number of overs will be more (over) or fewer (under) than a given number. Pitch, weather, and the batting lineup all come into play.
Multi Bet (multiple selections)
A single bet combining the results of multiple matches or events. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply and the return is higher — but if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Top Bowler
A bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. The nature of the pitch — spin-friendly or pace-friendly — is important information for this market.
Handicap Betting
A virtual advantage or disadvantage is given to a team to level the competition between two sides. For example, if the stronger team is given a -1.5 run handicap, they must win by more than that margin. Results are expressed in numbers, without any stake or return examples.
Odds in three formats — learn to read and understand them
Odds on betjili 99com are shown in three formats: decimal, fractional, and American. All three express the same probability — only the way they are written differs.
The table below gives two worked examples — a hypothetical match between Team A and Team B. These numbers are for illustration only and are not a promise or guarantee of any kind.
| Format | Team A (Example 1) | Team B (Example 2) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.50 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 1/2 |
| American | +150 | -200 |
Example 1 — Betting on Team A to win, stake ৳200
Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150. If the bet wins, total return is ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 stake); if the bet loses, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Betting on favourite Team B to win, stake ৳200
Decimal 1.50 = Fractional 1/2 = American -200 (a negative American odds figure shows how much you need to stake to win ৳100). On a ৳200 stake, total return is ৳300 (৳100 profit).
Multi bets and cricket match winner — detailed examples
In a multi bet, multiple selections are combined into one. Say you pick three teams across three separate matches at decimal odds of 1.60, 1.80, and 1.90. Multiplying these gives combined odds of 1.60 × 1.80 × 1.90 = 5.47 (approximately). So a ৳100 bet returns ৳547 if all three are correct — but if even one is wrong, the entire ৳100 is lost. Multi bets offer a higher potential return, but the risk is also higher.
In a hypothetical limited-overs cricket match, if Team A's odds are 1.65 and Team B's odds are 2.30: a ৳1,000 bet on Team B returns ৳2,300 if Team B wins (৳1,300 profit); if Team A wins, ৳1,000 is lost.

Live in-play betting — odds shift with wickets and overs
In-play or live betting means placing bets on a match in real time while it is in progress. In cricket this is particularly useful because the situation changes rapidly with every ball and every wicket.
As an example — in the 10th over of a T20 match, Team A is 90 for 2. At this point Team A's odds to win will shorten (because they are in a strong position) and Team B's odds will lengthen. If Team A then loses 2 more wickets in the next over, the odds will flip again.
In-play betting also offers certain markets that are not available before the match starts — such as what will happen on the next ball (dot, runs, wicket), total runs in the next over, or who will hit the next boundary.
In-play betting — a caution
There is less time to make decisions in live betting. Before placing any bet, stay within your own budget and bet only for entertainment. To learn more about responsible betting, read our Responsible Gaming page.
What changes odds in live betting
- A wicket falling increases the odds for the batting team
- A big over (15+ runs) puts the batting team in a stronger position
- A rain break can change both the match target and the odds
- If a top batter is injured, odds can shift instantly
- Odds move fastest in the last 5 overs as the pressure of a run chase builds
Practical advice before you start betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — keeping that in mind, following a few basic principles helps make for a better experience.
- Set a budget: Decide in advance how much you will put into bets each week or month. Do not go beyond that limit.
- Understand the market before you bet: Start with straightforward markets like match winner. Take time to properly understand multi bets or handicap markets before moving on to them.
- Compare odds: Look at the odds across different markets for the same match. Choose the one that best aligns with your own analysis.
- Bet with judgment, not emotion: Betting on your favorite team every time may not be the right call. Analyze the situation before making a decision.
- Avoid rushing in live betting: Time is short in in-play betting, but that is no reason to place large bets impulsively.
- Know the rules: Before you start betting, it is always a good idea to read the Terms and Conditions — especially the withdrawal and bonus terms.
