299bet color Cricket Betting — T20 to Test, new opportunities on every ball
299bet color cricket betting makes Bangladesh's most popular sport even more engaging. Ready with multiple markets across all major competitions — BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup.
Cricket's three formats and favourite competitions
The main appeal of cricket betting is its variety. One sport, but three completely different formats — each played at its own pace, and each offering a different betting experience.
T20: The fastest format. Matches finish in just 20 overs, so odds shift quickly. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are the most popular among Bangladeshi viewers. Every Bangladesh Tigers match at the T20 World Cup gets special attention here.
ODI: A 50-over match tests strategy. The batting powerplay, middle overs, and death overs each change the pace of the game — and the betting markets shift along with them.
Test: A five-day game of patience. Weather, pitch character, and statistics carry more weight here. Those who understand cricket deeply tend to enjoy Test match betting the most.
BPL
The Bangladesh Premier League is built around local teams. As the country's franchise tournament, it draws the most interest from Bangladeshi bettors.
T20 FranchiseIPL
The Indian Premier League is the biggest T20 league in the world. World-class players and high-speed matches make it a standout attraction on 299bet color.
T20 InternationalICC Tournaments
Bangladesh Tigers' participation in the T20 World Cup, Champions Trophy, and ICC World Cup creates the biggest betting moments.
World Cup ICCFootball and other sports betting
Alongside cricket, 299bet color also offers football betting. Football has three possible outcomes — Team A wins, Team B wins, and draw — so the odds structure is different from cricket. In limited-overs cricket, a draw does not normally happen, so those markets have two outcomes.
In football you can find markets like goal scorer, first goal, half-time score, and corner count. Cricket, on the other hand, has markets like toss, top batsman, and highest runs — none of which exist in football. The pace of the two sports also differs: cricket changes over by over, football changes minute by minute.
Badminton betting is another different experience. With set-based scoring and a mix of singles and doubles events, badminton markets are unlike cricket or football — find out more on the 299bet color badminton betting page.

7 popular betting markets
-
Match Winner The simplest market — which team will win the match. You pick one of Team A or Team B. In T20, this is the most widely played market.
-
Toss Winner A market settled before the match even starts. Just answer one question — which team, Team A or Team B, will win the toss — and the bet is done.
-
Top Batsman Which batsman in a team will score the most runs. For example, you can pick any one of three batsmen from Team A; the one with the lowest odds is considered by the market to be in the most favourable position.
-
Total Runs Over/Under Before placing your bet, a set runs line is given — for example, 165. You choose whether the total runs will be higher (over) or lower (under) than that line.
-
Multi Bet Results from multiple matches are combined into one bet. You only win the total payout if every selection is correct. Example: you can build a multi bet by picking Team A, Team B, and Team A as winners across three matches.
-
Man of the Match You can bet in advance on who will be the best performer in the match. Each option in this market has its own odds, which change as the match progresses.
-
Handicap Betting One team is given a virtual advantage or disadvantage to level the gap between the two sides. Example: if Team B is given a 15-run handicap, you can still win the bet even if Team B loses by a small margin in reality.
Tip for choosing a market
If you are new to betting, start with Match Winner — it is easy to understand and the result is clear. As you gain experience, move on to Top Batsman or Over/Under markets.
Remember — betting is for entertainment. Read the responsible gaming policy and set your own limits.
How to read and understand odds
In betting, odds are written in three different ways — decimal, fractional, and American. 299bet color generally uses decimal odds, but it is good to recognise the other two formats as well.
Example 1 — the same odds in three formats
A ৳500 bet is being placed on Team A to win. The same value written in three formats:
| Format | Value |
|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 |
| Fractional | 5/4 |
| American | +125 |
If Team A wins, you get back ৳1,125 — a profit of ৳625 plus your original ৳500 stake returned. If Team A loses, ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — odds for the favourite
Team B is the stronger side, so the odds on their win are lower:
| Format | Value |
|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 1/4 |
| American | -400 |
American minus odds mean — you need to bet ৳400 to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳500 bet the return is ৳625 — a profit of just ৳125.
Remember: Decimal odds are the simplest — stake multiplied by odds equals total return. American plus odds show how much profit a stake of 100 makes; minus odds show how much you need to stake to make a profit of 100.
While the match is on — live in-play betting
In cricket, live betting means odds change at every moment of the match. When a wicket falls, the batting team's odds lengthen; when a big six is hit, they shorten. That movement is what makes live betting interesting.
As the situation shifts over by over, new markets open up — how many runs will be scored in the next over, will a wicket fall on the next ball, what will the total runs be in the last ten overs of the innings. These small markets are settled very quickly.
In powerplay overs there is usually aggressive batting, so the run rate is higher. In the middle overs the strategy is to preserve wickets. In the death overs the play becomes risky again — odds move at a completely different pace across these three phases.
Live betting in Test matches is more complex — pitch behaviour, light, and weather directly affect the odds.
Some practical betting tips
Betting is entertainment — keeping the following tips in mind will make the experience more structured.
Set a budget first
Before each session, decide how much you will bet. Stay within that limit.
Focus on One Market
Rather than jumping into many markets at once from the start, try to understand one market well.
Think according to the format
The character of odds in T20 and Test matches is different. Betting on the format you watch the most will feel more natural.
Keep a clear head in live betting
Odds change fast in a live match, so take time to read the situation before making a decision instead of rushing.
