789bet Cricket Betting — Bet on Bangladesh Tigers Matches, BPL and All Formats
From T20 to Test matches, IPL to the T20 World Cup — cricket betting at 789bet means multiple markets, real-time odds updates and live in-play betting. Easy deposit and withdrawal options especially for Bangladeshi players.
Cricket betting has three main formats — T20, ODI and Test. Each format has its own pace and characteristics, so the betting markets differ accordingly.
T20: In a 20-over match, results can change quickly. T20 is the most-watched format in tournaments like BPL and IPL. Six sixes in an over or a sudden wicket can shift the entire picture in moments, making live betting particularly active.
ODI: The fifty-over format runs a bit longer, so mid-match betting markets stay open for more time. ODI betting is popular in ICC tournaments and various bilateral series.
Test: This five-day format has the most varied betting markets. Odds shift at the end of each session, and a draw is a separate possible result. Test matches are particularly interesting for patient bettors.
The most talked-about competitions in Bangladesh are BPL, IPL and ICC international tournaments. When the Bangladesh Tigers are playing, the number of betting markets on 789bet naturally increases.
Alongside cricket, football is also an active section on 789bet. However, the betting experience for the two sports is different.
In cricket, live odds change with every over and wicket, so there are far more opportunities for live betting. In football, odds shift sharply when a goal is scored but can remain quite stable in between.
In cricket a draw result only exists in Test matches — T20 and ODI matches generally produce a definite winner. In football a draw is always a possibility, so the match winner market is set up with three options: Team A wins, Team B wins, or draw.
Cricket offers more betting markets — top batsman, highest runs, toss and over/under together provide many more options. In tennis, badminton and other sports the range of markets is more limited.
The most commonly used markets in cricket betting are explained below with simple examples.
Match Winner
A bet on which team will win the match. Choose between Team A or Team B. In T20 and ODI this is the simplest and most widely used market.
Toss Betting
A bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. Since the outcome is entirely random, the odds for both teams are nearly equal.
Top Batsman
A bet on which batsman will score the most runs in a specific innings. Example: which batsman from Team A will finish at the top.
Total Runs Over/Under
A bet on whether the total runs in an innings or across the whole match will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. Example: Team A's total runs in the first innings over 160.
Top Wicket Taker
A bet on which bowler will take the most wickets. Choose from the bowlers of Team A or Team B — odds change according to the pitch and match conditions.
Multi Bet (multiple selections)
The outcomes of multiple matches or markets are combined into a single bet. All selections must be correct to win; if even one is wrong the entire bet is lost — higher risk, but also much higher potential return.
Handicap and run-range markets
In a handicap market the weaker team is given a notional advantage, bringing the odds for both sides closer together. In a run-range market the bet is on whether runs in a specific set of overs (e.g. the first 6 overs) will fall within a given range. These markets rely on analysing the probability of outcomes rather than straightforward number-crunching.
Multi bet example:
If three selections have odds of 1.50, 1.60 and 1.70 respectively, the combined odds are 1.50 × 1.60 × 1.70 = 4.08 (approximately). On a ৳100 bet, if all three selections are correct, the return is ৳408. If any one selection is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost. This is a high-risk market intended for entertainment.
The odds for the same match can be written in three different ways — all convey the same information, only the presentation differs. The example below shows all three formats together.
| Format | If Team A wins (example) | If Team B wins (example) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 1/4 |
| American | +125 | -400 |
Example 1 — Team A wins, stake ৳200:
Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. If you win, the return is ৳450 (৳250 profit + ৳200 original stake). If you lose, ৳200 is lost.
Example 2 — Team B (favourite), stake ৳200:
Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳200 bet, if you win the return is ৳250 (৳50 profit).
Which format is easiest?
- Decimal: The simplest — odds × stake = total return.
- Fractional: The British method — shows profit as a fraction.
- American: Plus odds show potential winnings; minus odds show how much you need to stake on a favourite.
789bet defaults to decimal format. Any of the three can be selected.
It is worth reading the terms and conditions before you start betting.
Live in-play betting lets you place bets after the match has started. Odds change with every over, every wicket and every boundary.
Say Team A is batting — if 2 wickets fall quickly in the first 5 overs, their odds of winning will increase (because they are now in a weaker position). Conversely, if a strong batsman is at the crease, Team A's odds may shorten.
In T20 matches the odds show a big shift after the Powerplay overs (first 6 overs). Once the target is set after the mid-innings break, the market for the chasing team is reset.
In Test matches markets refresh at the end of each session (morning, afternoon, evening). If 5 wickets fall suddenly on a sticky wicket, odds can move quickly from a draw towards a defeat.
When live betting, keep in mind — this is entirely for entertainment. Following responsible betting practices is important.
This is an illustrative example only — not live odds
Betting is a form of entertainment — there is no guarantee of profit. That said, some basic awareness is useful.
Set a budget
Decide on a limit for yourself before each session. Avoid betting more than that amount — this is the most important habit to build.
Understand the format before betting
Markets differ between T20 and Test. The format you watch most will feel easier to bet on.
Focus on one market
Rather than opening many markets at once when starting out, build experience in straightforward markets like match winner or over/under.
Do not rush in live betting
Odds change fast in-play — rather than making an emotional decision after a single over, take a moment to read the situation before placing a bet.
Be careful with multi bets
Adding more selections increases the potential return, but a single wrong pick means losing everything. It is better to avoid large multi bets until you have more experience.
Do not double your stake after a loss
Increasing your bet to recover a loss is a common mistake. Take a break instead and return to the next match with a clear head.
