Cricket Betting at 5999 app — Bet on every match from BPL to the T20 World Cup
Live and pre-match betting markets across all three formats — Test, ODI and T20. A complete betting experience built for cricket fans in Bangladesh.
Three Cricket Formats and Major Tournaments
Cricket in Bangladesh is more than a sport — it is a passion. From grounds in Dhaka to international stadiums, every match the Tigers play draws excitement across the country. With that in mind, 5999 app has organised betting markets across three separate formats.
T20 Format — This twenty-over game is the fastest and also the most active for betting. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and IPL are the most popular with fans in Bangladesh. Odds shift every over, making it ideal for live betting. Special markets on 5999 app also open during the ICC T20 World Cup.
ODI Format — The pace of this fifty-over format is slower, but the range of markets is wider. Top batsman, leading wicket-taker and total runs per innings are among the most popular markets here.
Test Cricket — In this five-day format a draw is a third possible result alongside a win or loss, which T20 and ODI do not have. This is why the odds structure differs from the other two formats. Pitch reports, weather and team form all play a significant role in Test betting.
T20 and BPL/IPL
Odds change every over. The most markets are active during BPL and IPL.
ODI and International Matches
Total runs, top batsman and innings-based markets are the most popular in this format.
Test Cricket
Three possible results in a five-day match, including a draw. Long-term statistics are more useful here.
Football and Other Sports
Alongside cricket, football betting is also available on 5999 app. Markets are open for major tournaments including the English Premier League, La Liga and Champions League. Match winner, over/under goals and both teams to score are the most common football markets. One key difference from cricket is that a draw is a normal result in football (especially in league matches), so odds are set across three outcomes — win, loss and draw. T20 cricket typically has two outcomes, so the odds structure is different.
Markets are available for tennis, badminton and other sports as well, though cricket and football attract the most betting interest in the Bangladesh market.
Popular Betting Markets and Examples
A betting market is the list of things you can bet on. 5999 app offers several popular markets for cricket. Below are seven main markets explained in plain language:
Match Winner
Bet on which team will win. Example: Team A vs Team B — if you back Team A and Team A wins, your stake is returned with profit.
Most PopularToss Winner
Bet on which team will win the toss at the start of the match. Example: bet on Team B to win the toss — if Team B wins it, you receive a payout.
Simple MarketTop Batsman
Bet on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match. You pick one player from within the team.
Skill MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether the total runs in an innings will be above (over) or below (under) a set number.
Statistics-BasedMulti Bet
Multiple selections combined — you only win if every selection is correct. If one selection is wrong, the entire stake is lost.
Chance of Big WinLeading Wicket-Taker
Bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. A bowler's suitability to the pitch — spin versus pace — is an important factor.
Bowling MarketFirst Over Runs
Bet on the total number of runs scored in the first over of an innings. Batting strategy during the powerplay has a big influence on this market.
Powerplay BettingHow to Read Odds
Odds are the basic language of betting. The higher the probability of an outcome, the lower its odds. Odds are written in three common formats — decimal, fractional and American. 5999 app generally uses decimal format, which is the easiest to follow in the Bangladesh market.
Betting is for entertainment only — it is not a source of income. Before placing a bet, it is worth reading the responsible gaming guidelines. Stay within your budget and do not bet more than you can afford to lose.
| Format | Team A (Favourable) | Team B (Unfavourable) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.25 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 1/4 |
| American | +125 | -400 |
Example 1 — Betting on Team A to Win
Say you want to bet on Team A. The same price in three formats: decimal 2.25 = fractional 5/4 = American +125. A ৳500 bet returns ৳1,125 in total if Team A wins (৳625 profit + original ৳500 stake). If Team A loses, the full ৳500 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B the Favourite
If Team B is the favourite their odds are lower: decimal 1.25 = fractional 1/4 = American -400 (American minus odds show how much you need to stake to win ৳100). A ৳500 bet returns ৳625 in total if Team B wins (৳125 profit).
Multi Bet Example
Three separate matches at decimal odds of 1.50, 1.70 and 1.90 — the combined odds are 1.50 × 1.70 × 1.90 = 4.84 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳484 if all three are correct. If any one of them is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost. A multi bet offers a higher potential return, but all selections must be correct.
Live In-Play Betting — Odds Shift When a Wicket Falls
Live betting, or in-play betting, means placing bets in real time while the match is in progress. It is completely different from standard pre-match betting because the odds change at every moment.
In cricket, when a wicket falls the batting team's chances of winning drop, so their odds increase (meaning a higher potential return but also more risk). A big six or a fast scoring run in the powerplay causes the bowling team's win odds to rise.
Watch how odds move at the end of each over — the powerplay, middle overs and death overs each create a different betting environment. You have less time to decide in live betting, so think through likely scenarios in advance.
Live betting markets are available on 5999 app through the 5999 Bet platform — new bets can be added even while the match is ongoing.
Some Practical Tips Before You Start Betting
-
Understand the format before you bet: T20, ODI and Test each have different rules and strategies. Start with the format you know best.
-
Set a budget: Decide how much you will stake in each session before you start. Do not go beyond that limit.
-
Check the pitch and weather: On a batting pitch you can expect higher scores in over/under runs markets. A forecast of rain increases uncertainty around the match result.
-
Focus on one market: For beginners, starting with match winner or toss is a good approach. Understand the simpler markets well before moving to more complex ones.
-
Do not rush in live betting: Real-time odds move quickly, so analyse the situation rather than betting on impulse.
-
Betting is entertainment, not earnings: Cricket betting is for enjoyment — staking more than you can afford to lose turns fun into pressure.
-
Read the terms and conditions: Before using any bonus or promotion, check the terms and conditions so you have a clear understanding of the wagering requirements.
