Cricket Betting at bh999 — T20 to BPL, odds for all matches in one place
bh999 brings complete betting coverage for Bangladesh's favourite sport. T20 World Cup, BPL, IPL — follow every moment of every match, check live odds and place bets on the markets you prefer.
Cricket's three formats and major tournaments
Cricket is a sport where the mood of a match can turn on a single wicket or a single boundary. At bh999 you can bet across all three formats — each has its own characteristics, so the betting markets differ accordingly.
Twenty20
A fast-paced 20-over match where every ball brings new possibilities. BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup are played in this format — the most popular among Bangladeshi fans. This format is the most action-packed for live betting because odds shift in an instant.
One Day International
In a 50-over match, both strategy and endurance matter. The ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in this format. Markets such as top batsman, match winner and total runs are available.
Test Cricket
The longest format, played over five days — besides a match winner, a draw is also a possible result. Innings-based markets and session betting add extra interest to this format. It is a distinct experience for patient bettors.
BPL, IPL and international cricket
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) becomes the single biggest talking point among cricket fans in the country every season. At bh999 you can bet at every stage of a BPL match — both before the match starts and while it is in progress.
IPL is an Indian league, but Bangladeshi fans follow it with equal interest. The Tigers' international matches — whether the T20 World Cup or a bilateral series — are regularly available in bh999's sports section.
Alongside cricket, you will also find betting markets for football, tennis and other international sports here. However, the depth of markets is less for other sports compared to cricket — because cricket allows over-by-over, wicket-by-wicket tracking.
Popular betting markets — what each one involves
Every match has multiple markets. Below is a straightforward explanation of the most commonly used betting markets, so new bettors can understand them too.
Match Winner
The simplest market — choose which of the two teams will win the match. T20 has no draw, so this is a two-option bet. Example: between Team A and Team B, you select Team B.
Toss Betting
A bet on who will win the toss before the match begins. The result is entirely random — pitch conditions or team strength have no bearing here. Example: you bet that Team A will win the toss.
Top Batsman
A bet on which batter will score the most runs in a specific innings or across the whole match. Knowing the team's batting order makes this market more interesting.
Total Runs — Over/Under
Whether the total runs in an innings or the whole match will be more (over) or less (under) than a set number. Example: the line for the first innings is 160 runs — you think the total will be higher.
Handicap Betting
To reduce the gap between two unevenly matched teams, the weaker team is given a head-start in runs. Example: if Team A is set at −15 runs, they must win by 16 or more runs to cover the handicap. This is also known as line betting.
Multi Bet
Multiple selections from different matches or markets are combined into one bet. If all selections win, the odds are multiplied — so the return can be much higher, but if even one loses, the entire bet is lost. A detailed example is given in the odds section below.
Many more markets — including over-by-over runs, wicket fall, first boundary and powerplay score — are available in bh999's sports section. Taking a bh999 VIP membership gives you access to special odds and exclusive offers.
Odds formats — Decimal, Fractional and American
Betting sites display odds in three different formats. All three express the same probability — only the way they are written differs. At bh999 you can choose whichever format you prefer. A comparative example of all three formats is given below.
| Format | Team A win odds | Team B win odds |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 2/1 | 4/5 |
| American | +200 | −125 |
Example 1 — betting on Team A to win (৳200): Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. If it wins, total return is ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 original stake). If it loses, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B as favourite (৳200): Decimal 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American −125 (American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100 profit). A winning ৳200 bet returns ৳360 (৳160 profit).
Multi bet calculation
Three selections combined: Decimal 1.50 × 1.60 × 1.80 = 4.32 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳432 if all three win.
But if even one loses, you lose the full ৳100 — multi bets carry higher risk. More selections mean higher odds, but also higher risk.
Why is Decimal easier?
Stake × decimal odds = total return. ৳200 × 3.00 = ৳600 — that is the whole calculation. That is why the decimal format is the most straightforward for new bettors.
Live Betting — odds shift on every wicket
In-play or live betting is the ability to place bets while a match is in progress. In cricket this is especially significant because every event changes the odds.
When a wicket falls, the bowling team's odds shorten and the batting team's lengthen. If runs come quickly in the powerplay, odds shift in favour of the batting team. If a large total is needed in the final over, the bowling team's odds can shorten sharply.
On bh999, the scoreboard and odds update together during live betting. You can make decisions by watching the run rate, wicket count and overs remaining.
Example: 90/3 after 15 overs — Team B is behind their target, so Team A's odds of winning shorten while Team B's lengthen. In live betting, you can act as these changes happen.
Football and other sports betting
Alongside cricket, bh999 also offers football betting. Football markets include match winner, total goals and both teams to score. However, there is no over-by-over tracking as there is in cricket.
Cricket has the largest number of betting markets — because statistics change with every ball, every over and every wicket. Fewer goals occur in football, so there are comparatively fewer markets. Tennis and badminton have set-based markets.
Sports betting at bh999 is not limited to cricket — but cricket offers more variety in markets and more live betting opportunities than any other sport. For bettors in Bangladesh, it is the most familiar and convenient section.
Cricket vs Football Betting
- In cricket, markets update with every ball
- In football, the number of goals in 90 minutes is limited
- In Test cricket a draw is possible — three outcomes
- All sports can be mixed in a multi bet
Some practical advice before you bet
Betting is entertainment — keeping that in mind and building a few simple habits will make the experience better. Following the responsible gaming policy is important for every bettor.
- 01 Set a fixed budget and do not go beyond it. Betting is for entertainment — it is better not to treat it as a source of income.
- 02 Bet on a market only after you understand it well. Beginners can start with the match winner — it is the simplest.
- 03 Higher odds in a multi bet means higher risk. Get some experience with single bets first.
- 04 In live betting, watch how things develop rather than rushing. Decisions made in the heat of the moment may not always be the best.
- 05 If you lose, take a break rather than placing a large bet straight away to recover. This is simple but effective advice.
