499bet Cricket Betting — Place bets on all big matches including T20, ODI, and BPL
Every moment of Bangladesh cricket is now closer. Cricket betting at 499bet is not just about the match winner — toss, top batsman, over/under, multi bet, and dozens of markets, all in one platform.
Cricket's three formats and major tournaments
Cricket is Bangladesh's most popular sport, and the betting markets reflect that variety. The three formats — T20, ODI, and Test — each have a different style of betting.
T20 is the fastest format. In just twenty overs, the match can turn at any moment. That makes T20 the most active format for in-play betting. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL (Indian Premier League) are the most popular T20 tournaments among Bangladeshi fans.
ODI matches run over fifty overs, so mid-match statistics (such as the run count at the midpoint of an innings) carry a lot of weight in the betting markets. In ICC tournaments — especially the T20 World Cup and Champions Trophy — team performances are watched most closely.
Test cricket is a five-day contest. This format offers match winner and draw markets, along with innings totals and session-based markets. When a Test is played at a ground in Dhaka, interest in these markets tends to be at its highest.
Football and other sports betting
Besides cricket, 499bet also offers betting on football, badminton, and tennis. The main difference from cricket lies in the number and structure of the markets.
In football, there is a separate draw market in addition to the match winner — something that does not exist in cricket (limited-overs matches do not end in draws). Markets like goal scorer, half-time score, and corner count are especially popular in football. Bangladeshi football fans have always shown strong interest in European league matches.
In tennis, each set works as a separate betting unit, whereas in cricket, over-based and wicket-based markets are more common. In general, the more events that occur in a market (wickets, goals, sets), the more active it is for live betting.
Cricket vs Football — Key Differences
- No draw in cricket (limited overs) — football has a three-way market
- In cricket, live odds change quickly based on wickets
- In football, live markets run for the full 90 minutes
- In T20, odds shift the most in the final over
- In Test, both innings and sessions have separate markets
Popular betting markets — how each one works
The markets below are generally available at 499bet. A simple example is given to explain each market.
Match Winner
Bet on which of the two teams will win — a straightforward question. Example: place your bet on whichever team you believe will come out on top, Team A or Team B.
Toss Winner
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match begins. This is a completely independent event — unrelated to in-match performance.
Top Batsman
Bet on which batter will score the most runs in the match — either within their own team or across the entire match. A little analysis is enough to understand this market.
Total Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a specific number (for example, 32 runs in 5 overs). You predict whether the actual runs scored will be more (Over) or less (Under) than that number.
Multi Bet
Multiple selections combined into a single bet. Example: pick three teams across three different matches — you win only if all selections are correct. If one is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Runs After Wicket
Bet on how many runs will be scored in a set number of overs after a wicket falls. This market is especially active in in-play betting.
A simple guide to three odds formats
Betting sites show three types of odds — Decimal, Fractional, and American. All three express the same information; only the way they are written differs.
Two practical examples are given below. Team names are always Team A or Team B — these are for illustration only and are not a promise of any specific team's odds or result.
These examples are for illustration only — not actual odds or a guarantee of winning.
| Format | If Team A wins (Example 1) | If Team B wins (Example 2) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | 1/4 |
| American | +200 | -400 |
Example 1 (Team A): If you place a ৳200 bet and Team A wins, you receive ৳600 (profit ৳400 + stake ৳200). If they lose, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 (Team B favourite): If you place a ৳200 bet and Team B wins, you receive ৳250 (profit ৳50). American -400 means you need to bet ৳400 to make a ৳100 profit.
Live in-play betting — odds change the moment a wicket falls
Live betting is on — place your bet at any point during the match
Live in-play betting at 499bet means you can place bets even after the match has started. When a wicket falls, the odds change instantly. If the team's best batter gets out, the opponent's odds shorten, and when runs come quickly the odds on the total runs over market shift as well.
Markets refresh with each new over too. When a team needs 60 runs off the last five overs, the match winner odds look completely different from what they were at the start. Using the 499bet app is convenient so you do not miss these moments.
Decisions in live betting must be made quickly — odds can change within seconds. Before you start betting, read the responsible gaming guidelines once, so you can keep your entertainment within limits.
Some useful points before you start betting
Betting is a form of entertainment — not a guaranteed way to make money. Keeping the following in mind will make the experience better.
- Set a budget and stick to it. Only bet what you can afford to lose.
- Understand one market well first, then move on to others. Starting with match winner is the easiest.
- Multi bets offer a higher potential return, but the risk is higher too — if one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
- Do not rush in live betting — understand the market before making a decision.
- Avoid placing large bets in an attempt to recover a lost bet.
- To learn the rules around betting, read the Terms and Conditions.
