Cricket Betting at 96 casino — Bet on BPL, IPL and International Matches
From T20 to Test, toss to live in-play — bet on every moment of cricket with straightforward odds. Deposit using Bangladeshi payment methods and start playing.
Cricket's Three Formats and Tournaments Bangladeshi Fans Love
The most important first step in cricket betting is understanding the format, because the type of bet varies with each format. T20 is the fastest format — results can change quickly in a match of just twenty overs, making it especially suited to live betting. Bangladeshi fans show the most interest in BPL and IPL, and T20 World Cup matches generate a strong response in the betting market every season.
ODI format is played over fifty overs, where the pace of the match shifts gradually — from the first powerplay through to the death overs at the end, betting opportunities are available throughout. ICC tournament ODI matches tend to offer a wider variety of markets. Test cricket is five days of play; here a draw is also a result alongside a match winner, so betting odds work differently. Innings-based markets in Test cricket — such as top scorer in the first innings or a team's total runs — are quite popular.
Beyond international matches, interest in betting on local club sides in domestic leagues like BPL is naturally higher. 96 casino covers matches across all these tournaments, so betting opportunities are available throughout the year.
T20, ODI and Test — a different betting approach for each format
Football and Other Sports Alongside Cricket
Football Betting
Compared to cricket, football has three possible outcomes — team A wins, a draw, or team B wins. Because of this, football odds are generally distributed differently from cricket. Asian handicap, correct score and goalscorer markets appear more often in football. With leagues from many countries running at the same time, the number of football betting options is higher throughout the year.
Other Sports
Betting markets are available for tennis, badminton, kabaddi and several other sports. Set-based markets in tennis and game handicap in badminton are popular. As with cricket, live betting during a match is available in these sports too, though the variety of bets is narrower than in cricket. Once you learn cricket betting, moving to other sports becomes much easier because the core odds structure is the same.
Popular Betting Markets in Cricket
You can bet on several different markets within the same match at the same time. Each market has its own odds and rules for determining the result. For new bettors it is better to focus on one market first. Full details on how multi-bets work and strategy tips are on a separate page.
Match Winner
The simplest market — predicting which team will win the match. In T20 only two outcomes are possible (excluding a Super Over), so odds are split directly between the two teams. Example: if you place a bet on team A to win, the bet stays active until the result is decided on the last ball of the match.
Toss Market
Betting on which team will win the toss before the match starts. This is completely separate from the match result — it depends solely on the outcome of the coin flip. The probability for both teams is generally equal, so the odds are close.
Top Run Scorer
Betting on which batsman in a specific team will score the most runs. Because multiple players are involved, the odds for any one of them are comparatively higher. When a wicket falls or the innings situation changes, the odds in this market can shift quickly during live play.
Total Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a specific run total — you decide whether the total runs in the match will be more than that (over) or fewer (under). Example: if the line is 155 runs, betting over means you win if 156 or more runs are scored. The wicket situation and pitch conditions influence this market.
First Wicket Partnership Runs
An over/under market on how many runs the two openers will put on together before the first wicket falls. The outcome of this market depends on the chance of a good start versus an early wicket.
Multi-Bet (Betting on Multiple Matches Together)
Multiple selections are combined on the same slip. If all selections are correct you get a large return at the combined odds, but if even one is wrong the entire bet is lost. During BPL and IPL seasons there are often several matches on the same day, which gives more opportunities for multi-bets. For detailed examples and how the calculation works, see the full multi-bet guide.
Handicap Market
To reduce the gap in strength between two teams, the stronger team is given a virtual run deficit. Example: if team A is given a -20 run handicap, their winning margin must be more than 20 runs for the bet to win. Odds in this market are usually more competitive than in the match winner market.
Learning to Read Odds — Three Formats
Decimal, Fractional and American Odds — all three give the same information
The same odds can be written in three ways. Choose whichever feels easiest to you — the result is the same. 96 casino generally shows decimal format as the default.
| Format | Team A to Win | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Stake × 3.00 = total return |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked |
| American | +200 | ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake |
Working Example 1: Odds for team A to win are 3.00 (decimal) / 2/1 (fractional) / +200 (American). If you place a ৳500 bet —
- If team A wins: you get back ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake)
- If team A loses: you lose ৳500
Working Example 2: Odds for team B to win are 1.50 (decimal) / 1/2 (fractional) / -200 (American). If you place a ৳500 bet —
- If team B wins: you get back ৳750 (৳250 profit + ৳500 stake)
- American minus odds mean: how much you need to stake to win ৳100
Live In-Play Betting — Betting During the Match
You can still bet after a match has started — this is called live or in-play betting. In cricket it is particularly interesting because odds change every over, and even every ball. When a wicket falls the batting team's odds rise quickly and the bowling team's odds fall. In the same way, if runs come fast in the powerplay the odds shift in favour of the batting team.
In T20 the last five overs often change the course of the entire match. If the batting team is in a strong position at the 18th over, their odds in the live market drop considerably. Betting on the opposing team at that point gives higher odds, but the risk is also higher — anything can happen in the last two overs.
Live betting in Test matches is even more extensive — odds move continuously in line with the final session of each day, the condition of the wicket and the wear on the pitch. In in-play betting you need to make decisions quickly, so having a good understanding of the match beforehand is an advantage.
Odds rise when
Quick wickets fall, a run of dot balls, rain interruption
Odds fall when
A big over, a growing partnership, few runs needed in the final overs
Live odds are reset after every over
Ice and Fire — A Different Betting Experience Alongside Cricket
Alongside cricket, 96 casino also offers a special betting game — Ice and Fire betting game. It is not sports betting like cricket; rather it is a different type of game based on fast rounds. You can try it between cricket bets, as each round ends quickly.
Some Useful Tips for Cricket Betting
Betting is one form of entertainment. The tips below will help you bet with awareness. Read the responsible gaming guidelines to set your betting limits.
Start with One Market
Begin by betting only on the match winner market. Once you understand that well, move on to other markets.
Stick to a Budget
Decide in advance how much you will bet in each session. Do not go beyond that limit even if you lose.
Understand the Format Before Betting
Betting approaches for T20 and Test matches differ. Knowing the rules of each format makes it easier to choose a market.
Compare Odds
Comparing odds across different markets in the same match helps you find which one fits your preferred risk-return level.
Avoid Rushing in Live Betting
In-play odds change fast — do not let the pressure of the moment rush your decision.
Treat It as Entertainment
Betting is not a source of income. Every bet should be placed with that awareness, purely for entertainment.
