Cricket betting at ct 99 — BPL, IPL and international matches
ct 99 offers a wide range of betting options across T20, ODI and Test matches for cricket fans in Bangladesh. From match winner to live in-play — every ball counts.
Cricket's three formats and favourite tournaments
The first thing to understand about cricket betting is the format. Each of the three formats has its own pace and character, so the available markets differ as well.
T20 is the fastest and most intense format — results can turn at any moment in just 20 overs. ODI cricket requires both strategy and patience across 50 overs. Test cricket is a five-day contest where a team's overall strength and pitch behaviour have a much greater influence.
The tournament most familiar to fans in Bangladesh is the BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), where local and international players compete together. IPL is followed just as closely here. Interest in betting on the ICC T20 World Cup and bilateral series featuring the Bangladesh Tigers is naturally high as well.
Football and other sports betting
Alongside cricket, football betting is also popular at ct 99. Markets are available on a range of events from European club football to international competitions.
The main differences between cricket and football betting lie in the number of markets and the pace of play. Football has a draw as a valid result, so markets cover three outcomes — home win, draw, away win. Limited-overs cricket generally has no draw; one of the two teams wins. Cricket also offers specialised markets such as over-by-over betting, wicket markets and partnership betting that are not found in football.
Live casino games are also available at ct 99. If you are looking for casino action alongside sports, the BetterLive Live Casino section has a full range of live table games.
The most popular markets
ct 99 offers many types of markets for cricket match betting. Below is a plain-language explanation of seven main markets.
Match Winner
A bet on which team will win the match. Say Team A plays Team B — if you think Team A will win, select that market.
Toss Winner
A bet on which team wins the toss before the match starts. You can pick either Team A or Team B.
Top Scorer
A bet on which batsman in a given team will score the most runs. The market is limited to players within the specified team.
Total Runs Line
The bookmaker sets a runs total — for example 160. Bet on whether the total runs scored in the match will be above that number (over) or below it (under).
Multiple Bets Combined
Adding results from several matches into one bet multiplies the odds — but if any selection is wrong, the entire stake is lost.
Top Wicket-Taker
A bet on which bowler in a given team will take the most wickets in the match. The pitch conditions and situation can help inform this decision.
First Innings Runs
A bet on how many runs a team will score in a specific innings. In T20, this market is also available for the powerplay.
How to read odds
Betting odds are shown in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same information in different ways. An example makes it straightforward:
| Format | Odds for Team A to win | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | You get back three times your stake in total |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked |
| American | +200 | ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake |
Example 1 — ৳200 bet on Team A to win: odds decimal 3.00 = fractional 2/1 = American +200. If Team A wins, total return is ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 stake back); if Team A loses, the full ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B is the favourite, odds decimal 1.50 = fractional 1/2 = American −200. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100. A ৳200 bet returns ৳300 (৳100 profit).
In short: decimal format is the simplest — multiply the odds by your stake and you have your total return.
Multi bet calculation
Combining bets on three separate matches multiplies the odds. If the three markets have odds of 1.50, 1.60 and 1.80:
Total odds: 1.50 × 1.60 × 1.80 = 4.32
If all three win on a ৳100 stake, the return is ৳432.
If any single bet loses, the full ৳100 is gone. Multi bets carry higher risk — play for entertainment.
Odds shift when wickets fall — in-play betting
Live betting or in-play betting means placing bets while the match is in progress. In cricket this is especially interesting, because a single wicket can shift odds dramatically.
Say Team A has made a good start in the first powerplay — their odds to win will shorten (meaning they become the favourite). Then if two wickets fall in quick succession, the odds will lengthen again. As each over passes, markets update continuously based on the current run rate and required run rate.
In-play also offers smaller markets such as runs in the next over, method of the next wicket, or the score at the end of a specific over.

A few tips before you start
Understand the format before you bet
T20, ODI and Test cricket move at different speeds — a strategy that works in one format may not work in another. Keep the match type in mind before placing a bet.
Set a budget in advance
Decide how much you will stake on each match before you start. Betting is entertainment — it is not a way to earn income.
Start with one market
For beginners, the match winner market is the simplest. Once you have some experience, moving to other markets becomes easier.
Read the rules and terms
Read the Terms and Conditions page to understand the betting rules. Also visit the Responsible Gaming page for advice on playing responsibly.
Make decisions quickly in live betting
In-play odds change fast. If you are not paying attention, good odds can disappear. That said, avoid placing large bets in a rush.
Be careful with multi bets
Multi bets offer higher odds but also higher risk — one wrong selection and the whole stake is gone. Try them once you have built up some experience.
