Cricket betting at 995bet bd — bet across T20, ODI and Test formats
BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup and international series — 995bet bd is with you for every big cricket moment. Match winner, toss, top batsman and live betting — all in one place.
Cricket's three formats and popular competitions
In Bangladesh, cricket is more than a sport — it is a feeling. T20, ODI and Test each have their own pace and character, and the style of betting differs across each one.
T20: The fastest format. Matches end in just 20 overs, so every ball counts. BPL and IPL are both played in this format, making it the most popular among betting fans in Bangladesh. The T20 World Cup brings fresh drama with every edition.
ODI: In fifty-over one-day cricket, the pace of the match shifts gradually. Markets like top batsman, middle-overs wickets or runs in the final ten overs are especially popular here.
Test: In the long five-day contest, betting opportunities are also long-term. Match winner, draw or a win for either side — the answer to that question keeps changing over five days. At 995bet bd you can bet on international matches across all three formats.
From Bangladesh Tigers matches to ICC events, 995bet bd brings cricket betting closer to you. Visit 995bet bd Bet to see the markets available for the latest matches.
Football and other sports — what sets them apart?
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football at 995bet bd. Football offers markets beyond the match result, such as Asian Handicap and corner count. Cricket's toss, wicket or over-specific run markets do not exist in football — each sport has its own language.
Betting on Kabaddi, Badminton or Tennis is simpler than cricket because there are fewer markets. However, cricket is the only sport where live betting with ball-by-ball analysis offers the most opportunity — and that is what makes cricket betting stand out at 995bet bd.
Alongside sports betting, you can also try live game experiences at the virtual casino.
7 popular betting markets every cricket fan knows
Cricket betting is not just about picking which team wins. The markets below let you get involved in different aspects of every match.
Match Winner
The simplest market — will Team A or Team B win? In T20 and ODI there is no draw, so there are only two possibilities. Example: if you pick Team B and they win, your stake and profit are returned.
Cricket T20 · ODIToss Winner
Which team will win the toss before the match starts — this is a pure 50-50 market. Pick Team A or Team B to win the toss. It has no connection to the match result.
All formatsTop Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in the match? In this market you place your bet on the name of the team's best batsman. Individual form matters more here than team performance.
ODI · TestTotal Runs Over/Under
Will the total runs in the match be more or less than a set number — that is the only decision in this market. Example: if total runs exceed 150, an "over" bet wins.
T20 · ODIMulti Bet (combining multiple markets)
Adding multiple markets to the same betting slip creates a multi bet. If all selections are correct you receive a larger return, but one wrong selection means the entire bet is lost. A detailed example is given in the odds section below.
All sportsTop Wicket-Taker in an Innings
Which bowler will take the most wickets — this market is particularly popular in Test and ODI cricket. The form of a team's lead bowler and the condition of the pitch play a big role here.
ODI · TestHandicap Betting
When there is a difference in strength between two teams, the weaker side is given a virtual advantage. For example: if Team A receives a 10-run handicap, 10 runs are added to their score for betting purposes. This brings the odds on the weaker team closer to even and makes the betting more interesting.
How to read and understand odds
Odds are a numerical expression of the probability of an event occurring. Odds are written in three common formats: decimal, fractional and American. At 995bet bd you will generally see decimal format, but understanding all three lets you bet comfortably on any platform.
Example 1 — the same odds in three formats
Suppose Team A's odds of winning are written in three formats as follows:
| Format | Odds | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | A ৳500 stake returns ৳1,500 in total if it wins (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 original stake) |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked — the same calculation |
| American | +200 | A ৳100 stake returns ৳200 profit |
If the bet loses, the original ৳500 is gone. All three formats show the same outcome — only the way of writing differs.
Example 2 — odds on the favourite
The team more likely to win has lower odds. If Team B is the favourite:
| Format | Odds | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.50 | A ৳500 stake returns ৳750 in total (৳250 profit) |
| Fractional | 1/2 | ৳1 profit for every ৳2 staked |
| American | -200 | You need to stake ৳200 to make ৳100 profit (minus means this is the favourite) |
American minus odds (-) mean that team is the favourite. Plus odds (+) mean the underdog — higher risk but higher profit.
Calculating a multi bet
When separate selections from three matches are placed together in a multi bet, the odds are multiplied. Example: if three selections have odds of 1.40, 1.60 and 1.90, the combined odds = 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.90 = 4.26 (approximately). A ৳100 stake returns ৳426 if all selections are correct. But if just one selection is wrong, the entire ৳100 is lost — the more selections in a multi bet, the greater the risk.
Things to remember about odds
- Decimal odds show the total return directly — just multiply
- Fractional odds show only the profit, not the original stake
- American minus odds mean favourite, plus means underdog
- Odds change — they shift before the match and during live betting
- Higher odds mean the event is considered less likely to happen
- Betting is always for entertainment — there is no guarantee of profit
Live betting — odds shift when a wicket falls
In-play or live betting is the most fast-moving part of cricket betting. You can place bets after the match has started and odds update after every ball.
What happens when a wicket falls? When an important wicket falls for the batting side, their odds of winning rise immediately (because winning has become harder), while the bowling side's odds fall. The moment of that change is an opportunity many find interesting to bet on.
What happens at the end of an over? If runs are slow during the powerplay or middle overs, the required run rate comes under pressure and odds shift quickly. When a big target needs to be chased in the final 5 overs, the batting side's odds are even higher.
A note on live betting: Because odds change fast, there is less time to decide. Keep a clear head, and remember — this is entertainment, not a guaranteed way to make money. To learn more about betting responsibly, read the responsible gaming page.
For the full live betting experience on mobile, you can use the 995bet bd App — both Android and iOS versions are available through official channels.
Some practical tips for cricket betting
Understand the format before choosing your market
Total runs or match winner markets are a better fit for T20. In Test cricket, longer-term markets like top batsman or innings score are also relevant. Knowing the nature of each format makes it easier to decide which market to enter.
Spread your bets rather than putting a large amount on one
Placing all your money on a single bet is risky. With several smaller bets, if one loses the others are still in play. Always keep your betting within your entertainment budget.
In live betting, patience works better than impulse
Changing your bet on the spot after seeing a wicket or a six mid-match often leads to losses. Try to understand the pattern of how odds are moving rather than rushing.
More selections in a multi bet means more risk
Each new selection added to a multi bet increases the potential return, but one wrong pick loses everything. Staying at two or three selections keeps risk more manageable.
Betting is for entertainment, not a source of income
Cricket betting can be an enjoyable experience when done in moderation. Do not try to recover losses by placing bigger bets — that creates problems. Read the FAQ for answers to common questions about betting.
Quick reminders
- T20 = quick decisions
