Cricket Betting at 5999 casino — Bet on Every Format from T20 to Test
BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup or Test series — 5999 casino covers cricket betting across all formats. Learn about match winner, toss, and live betting markets.
Cricket's Three Formats and Familiar Bangladeshi Tournaments
T20, ODI and Test — each format plays differently, so the betting markets differ too. Understanding how to bet in each format is important.
T20 Cricket
T20 is the fastest format — a match finishes in just 20 overs. BPL and IPL are played in this format, where the situation can change with every ball. Fans enjoy this format most, and it is particularly well suited to live betting.
ODI Cricket
In a One Day International each team bats for 50 overs. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in ODI format. Betting on top batsman or highest run-scorer is especially popular in this format. Bangladesh Tigers matches give ODI betting an added dimension.
Test Cricket
This five-day format moves at a slower pace, but the range of markets is wider. A draw is a possible result, so there are three options to bet on — Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw. Markets like first-innings runs and top wicket-taker are particularly popular in Test cricket.
BPL, IPL and International Matches
BPL is Bangladesh's home league and draws the most interest from local fans. Each season, betting markets around franchise matches are very active. Bangladeshi bettors also take part in Indian IPL in significant numbers — especially when familiar players are on the field.
On the international stage, ICC T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy matches offer a wide range of betting opportunities. When Bangladesh Tigers take the field, you can find detailed options from match winner to individual player performance markets.
Football and Other Sports Betting
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football and other sports. Each sport has its own market structure.
The biggest difference in football betting is the draw. In T20 or ODI cricket there is no draw — one team always wins. In football draws happen regularly, so the match winner market has three options: Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw. This difference also affects how odds are calculated.
In sports like badminton, tennis or kabaddi, bets are usually placed between two outcomes. Each sport has its own statistics-based markets — such as number of goals, set results, or point spread.
The key difference between cricket and football in live betting is the pace. In cricket the situation changes after every ball, and odds shift quickly when a wicket falls. In football a major change usually only comes after a goal.
Cricket vs Football Betting
- No draw in T20 and ODI cricket — two options only
- A draw is possible in Test cricket — three options
- Football generally allows betting on all three results
- Live odds change with every ball in cricket
- In football, a goal or red card brings a big shift
- Multi bets are available in both sports
Popular Betting Markets and How They Work
From match winner to multi bet — cricket offers a range of market types to bet on.
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick who will win. In T20 or ODI, choose Team A or Team B and place your bet. Example: if you think Team B is stronger, you bet on Team B.
Toss Winner
There is a separate market for which team will win the toss before the match starts. The toss depends on a coin flip, so the odds on both options are usually close to equal.
Top Batsman
Pick which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match. If you think a batsman from Team A is in great form, you can bet on that player as the top scorer.
Total Runs — Over/Under
Pick whether the total runs scored by the end of a specific over or the full innings will be more (over) or less (under) than a set number. Example: will total runs in 20 overs exceed 160?
Multi Bet
Multiple selections from different matches or markets are combined into a single bet — if all selections are correct the odds multiply and the payout is larger. But if even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost. A detailed example is in the odds section below.
Top Wicket-Taker
Bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in a match or innings. Pitch conditions, weather, and a bowler's recent form are all worth considering when making your decision.
How to Read Odds — Three Formats
The same bet on the same match can be expressed in three different formats. You only need to know whichever one you find easiest.
Example 1 Team A to win — ৳500 stake
The same bet written in three formats:
Decimal: 2.25
Fractional: 5/4
American: +125
All three mean the same thing — a ৳500 stake returns ৳1,125 in total if you win (৳625 profit + ৳500 original stake). If you lose, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 Favourite Team B to win
The favourite carries lower odds:
Decimal: 1.50
Fractional: 1/2
American: -200
A minus sign in American odds means you stake that amount to profit 100. A ৳500 stake returns ৳750 in total if you win (৳250 profit).
Multi Bet Odds — Three Selections
You are betting on three separate matches — odds 1.50, 1.60 and 1.70. In a multi bet these are multiplied:
1.50 × 1.60 × 1.70 = 4.08 (approximately)
A ৳100 stake returns ৳408 if all three are correct. But if even one is wrong you lose the full ৳100. Multi bets offer higher returns but carry higher risk.
A simple rule for understanding Decimal odds
Decimal odds are straightforward — multiply your stake by the odds to get the total return. 2.25 means a ৳100 stake returns ৳225 — that includes your ৳100 original stake and ৳125 profit. Odds never go below 1.00.

Live Betting — Odds Shift When a Wicket Falls
Live betting is the ability to place bets in real time while a match is going on. In cricket, it is especially dynamic.
Changes Every Ball
In cricket the situation shifts after every ball — a six lowers the batting team's odds, a wicket raises them. In live betting you have to read these changes and make decisions on the spot.
For example, suppose Team A needs 60 runs off the last 5 overs with 3 wickets remaining. In that situation Team A's odds of winning will be high because the target is tough. But if two boundaries in a row ease the pressure, the odds can shift quickly.
Staying calm in live betting is important — bet with a plan rather than getting caught up in the excitement of the moment. Remember, betting is a form of entertainment — no win is ever guaranteed.
- When a wicket falls, the fielding team's odds shorten
- A high run rate in the powerplay puts the batting team ahead
- The required run rate in the final over is the biggest factor
What You Should Know Before You Start Betting
Keeping a few basic points in mind will make your betting experience much better.
- Understand the format before choosing a market: High-scoring matches are common in T20, which is why over/under markets are popular. Test cricket has a draw market; T20 does not — understand this difference before you bet.
- Focus on one market at a time: Start by getting comfortable with straightforward markets like match winner or over/under. Betting across too many markets at once gets complicated.
- Set a budget before you start: Decide how much you will stake in each session before you begin and stick to that limit. Betting is for entertainment — do not use household money here.
- Be patient in live betting: Watch the first few overs to get a feel for the match — wait for the right moment rather than rushing in with a bet.
- Be careful with multi bets: Even when the combined odds look attractive, every single selection in a multi bet needs to be correct. More selections means more risk.
- Play Responsibly: Do not let betting become a habit. Read our guidelines on responsible gaming.
Keep in Mind
Betting is entertainment only — it is not a source of income. The outcome of every match is uncertain, so only bet what you can afford to lose. You can join the 5999 VIP Programme to get benefits for regular play, but always keep responsible play in mind.
