takbet Cricket Betting — place your bet on every Bangladesh Tigers match
From BPL to the T20 World Cup, ODI series to Test matches — takbet covers all cricket formats. Match winner, toss, top batsman, over/under runs and live in-play markets, all in one place.
Cricket Formats and Tournaments
Cricket is Bangladesh's most popular sport, and that's why cricket betting gets special attention on takbet. Each of the three main formats — T20, ODI and Test — offers a different betting experience.
T20: With just 20 overs of play, the situation can shift on any single ball. Quick decisions, big shots and last-over drama make the live market most active in this format. BPL and IPL are the two biggest competitions in this format, drawing the most interest from Bangladeshi fans.
ODI: Strategy carries more weight in the 50-over format. Keeping track of the run rate and wickets in hand through the middle overs helps you read the market. Bangladesh Tigers matches in the ICC World Cup and bilateral series get particular attention here.
Test: Patience and consistency are what count in this five-day format. Innings-by-innings stats, pitch conditions and weather all combine to make Test betting different in nature — and longer in duration.
You can also bet on football and other sports at takbet Bet, though there are some key differences from cricket — football has a draw as a valid result, so the market offers three outcomes (home win, away win, draw), whereas T20 and ODI cricket generally only produce a win or loss between the two teams.
Popular Markets and Betting Options
There are several types of markets in cricket betting. Understanding how each one works makes the betting experience more comfortable.
Match Winner
Which of the two teams will win — this is the simplest market. Example: if Team A wins, your bet is successful; if Team B wins, it is not.
All FormatsToss Winner
There is a separate market on who will win the toss before the match starts. Team A or Team B — two possibilities, usually priced close to even.
Pre-MatchTop Batsman
Which batter from a given team will score the most runs — this market compares players within one team. Recent form and pitch conditions are worth considering.
Player MarketTotal Runs — Over/Under
Will the total runs be more (over) or fewer (under) than a set number — pick one. Example: line set at 160 runs; Team A scores 172, the over bet wins.
Runs MarketMulti Bet
Combine the results of several matches into a single bet. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply for a bigger return; if even one is wrong, the entire bet loses.
Multiple MatchesRuns in a Specific Over
How many runs will be scored in the powerplay or the first 10 overs — this in-innings market is particularly active during live play.
Live MarketHow to Read Odds — Three Formats
takbet and most other betting sites display odds in three formats: decimal, fractional and American. All three are just different ways of expressing the same probability.
| Format | Team A Win (Example 1) | Team B Win (Example 2) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 5/4 | 4/5 |
| American | +125 | −125 |
Example 1 — Team A Win, ৳200 bet
Decimal 2.25 = Fractional 5/4 = American +125. If the bet wins, you get back ৳450 (৳250 profit + original ৳200 stake). If the bet loses, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Team B Favourite, ৳200 bet
Decimal 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American −125. American minus odds show how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. On a ৳200 bet, a win returns ৳360 (৳160 profit).
Decimal format is the easiest to follow — just multiply your stake by the odds to get the total return. New bettors may find it the best format to start with.
Live In-Play Betting — Markets Change with Every Wicket and Over
Live Betting is active
The advantage of betting while a match is in progress is that you can make decisions based on what you see. When a wicket falls, the form of the incoming batter and the pressure of the run rate are factored in as the live market continuously updates.
Say Team A is scoring quickly in the powerplay — the over/under line for total runs will move up. Conversely, if two wickets fall in quick succession, the team's win odds shorten as the situation becomes more difficult.
Anything can happen in the final 5 overs of a T20, so the live market is at its most changeable then. In Test matches, session-by-session stats and how the pitch is turning are reflected in live markets.
Keep in mind — betting is for entertainment. Think about your budget before placing each live bet. Read the Responsible Gaming page for more information.
Some Useful Tips for Cricket Betting
- Understand the format before betting: The pace of play differs across T20, ODI and Test. The same two teams can produce different results depending on the format — keep that in mind.
- Be careful with multi bets: A multi bet with three selections at decimal 1.60, 1.70 and 1.90 gives combined odds of 1.60 × 1.70 × 1.90 ≈ 5.17, so a ৳100 stake returns ৳517 if all win. But if even one loses, the full ৳100 is gone.
- Set a budget beforehand: Staying within a fixed amount keeps betting enjoyable. Placing larger bets to recover losses makes things worse.
- Don't rush in live markets: Live odds change fast. Rather than betting immediately after a wicket falls, wait a few balls and see how the situation settles.
- Go by stats, not guesswork: A team's recent form, the type of pitch and the weather conditions are useful information for reading a bet — not guarantees.
- Read the terms and conditions: Checking the terms and conditions before using a bonus or promotion saves confusion later.
Multi Bet Example
Bets on three matches:
If all three are correct. One wrong and ৳100 is lost.
Football and Other Sports
takbet is not limited to cricket — markets are also available for football, kabaddi and other sports. There are some fundamental differences from cricket, though.
In football, the match winner market has three outcomes — home team win, away team win and draw. In limited-overs cricket there is generally no draw, so there are only two possibilities. In Test matches, however, a draw or tie is possible, which appears as a third option in the odds structure.
Handicap betting is available in both cricket and football. In cricket, a run handicap means a market is created by giving one team a set run advantage or disadvantage. A goal handicap in football works the same way. For handicap or over/under markets, understanding how the result is interpreted is enough — there is no need to calculate stakes or returns here.
Live casino games are also available on takbet — the takbet Casino section features live table games from various studios including Evolution and Pragmatic Play Live, offering a different kind of entertainment from cricket betting.
Cricket vs Football
- T20/ODI: only two outcomes (win/loss)
- Football: three outcomes (home/away/draw)
- Test: draw/tie possible, third option
- Both have handicap and over/under markets
- Both have active live in-play markets
