3999 bd Cricket Betting — the best betting experience in T20, ODI and Test
From BPL and IPL to the T20 World Cup — 3999 bd is with you at every moment of cricket. Bet on match winner, toss, top batsman and live in-play markets.
Three Cricket Formats and Popular Tournaments
A big part of cricket betting's appeal is the variety of formats. Each format has its own rhythm and the types of bets available in each one differ as well.
T20: Just 20 overs of play, where results can shift quickly. BPL and IPL are the most familiar to cricket fans in Bangladesh. On top of that, Bangladesh Tigers matches at the T20 World Cup bring their own level of excitement. In T20, outcomes can change very fast with every ball, so there are the most live betting opportunities.
ODI: The 50-over format allows for greater strategic depth. Each phase of the innings — powerplay, middle overs and death overs — can be analysed separately for team performance. A large number of markets open up for ICC Trophy and World Cup ODI contests.
Test: This five-day format is a patient game. Beyond the match winner, series result, end-of-day score and top wicket-taker are markets popular with bettors.
Because BPL is Bangladesh's own franchise tournament, it is a particular favourite among local bettors. 3999 bd also offers a wide range of betting markets for every IPL match. Markets are equally available for international bilateral series.
T20 Cricket
Fast-paced format — BPL, IPL and the T20 World Cup.
ODI Cricket
50-over tactical contest — ICC tournaments and the World Cup.
Test Cricket
Five-day long-term betting markets — including series result.
Football and Other Sports Betting
3999 bd is not limited to cricket — betting markets are available for football and several other sports. Interest in football in Bangladesh is steadily growing, particularly during European league seasons and the FIFA World Cup.
The difference between cricket and football betting is mainly in the market structure. In football a match has three possible outcomes — home win, away win or draw. In limited-overs cricket there is generally no option of a draw, so the result is decided between just two teams. The role that handicap and goal over/under markets play in football is filled in cricket by runs over/under and wicket-based markets.
Main match winner markets are also available for other sports like Kabaddi, Badminton and Tennis. In terms of variety and depth of markets, cricket is always ahead, because so many events happen within a match that each one creates a new betting opportunity.
For those who want to learn more about betting strategy, practical advice for various sports is available on 3999 bd's betting tips page.
Popular Betting Markets at 3999 bd
Each market works slightly differently. Below are 7 popular markets with brief examples — all values are fictional and are only meant to make the concept clear.
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which team will win the match. Example: in a match between Team A and Team B, if you place a ৳200 bet on Team A and Team A wins, you receive a return according to the set odds.
Toss Bet
Which team will win the toss — this is settled before the match begins. Since both teams have roughly equal chances of winning the toss, the odds are generally similar for both.
Top Batsman
Which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match — in this market you can pick any one player from several options and place your bet.
Total Runs Over/Under
The bookmaker sets a runs line, for example 160. You have to say whether the total runs in the match will be more than that number (over) or fewer (under).
Multi Bet
Adding multiple selections to a single bet multiplies the odds. Example: three selections at 1.40, 1.70 and 1.90 — combined odds 1.40 × 1.70 × 1.90 = 4.52, so a ৳100 bet returns ৳452; however, if any one selection loses, the entire bet is lost.
Top Wicket-Taker
Which bowler will take the most wickets in the match — this market involves betting on a bowler's performance. In T20, bowlers in the death overs have more opportunities.
Run Handicap
The weaker team is given a notional head start in runs. The stronger team must overcome that handicap to win. The result is determined after adding the handicap at the end of the match.
Over of the First Wicket
You predict in which over the batting team's first wicket will fall. This market gets particular attention during the powerplay in T20 matches.
How to Read Odds in Three Formats
Odds on betting sites may be displayed in three different formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability, just written differently.
Decimal 2.50 = Fractional 3/2 = American +150.
If Team A wins, total return is ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 stake). If Team A loses, ৳200 is gone.
In decimal odds, the stake and profit are shown together — multiply directly by the stake to get the total return. In fractional odds, the numerator is the profit portion and the denominator is the stake portion. In American odds, "+" means profit on a ৳100 bet, and "−" means how much you must stake to make ৳100 profit.
Decimal 1.80 = Fractional 4/5 = American -125.
If Team B wins, total return is ৳360 (৳160 profit + ৳200 stake).
Note that a favourite's decimal odds are always more than 1.0 but less than 2.0, because the bookmaker pays less profit since they are more likely to win. An underdog's odds are above 2.0.
| Format | Team A (Underdog) | Team B (Favourite) |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 3/2 | 4/5 |
| American | +150 | -125 |
| Return on ৳200 stake | ৳500 | ৳360 |
Team A and Team B are fictional — these numbers are only meant to explain the formats.
Live In-Play — Odds Shift with Every Wicket
Live in-play betting is the most dynamic part of cricket betting. After the match starts, the odds update instantly with every wicket that falls, every six or four that is hit, and every change in the run rate over by over.
Say the batting team loses two wickets in quick succession — their odds of winning will rise (meaning the payout increases but the probability falls), and the fielding team's odds of winning will shorten. If the bowling team concedes only 55 runs in 10 overs and takes 3 wickets, the live odds will show their chances of winning as quite strong.
In 3999 bd's BeterLive live section, the live score and real-time markets are shown side by side, making in-play betting much easier.
Live betting requires quick decisions, because odds can change within seconds. Always treat betting as entertainment and play within your budget.
Some Useful Tips for Starting Cricket Betting
- Focus on one format: T20, ODI and Test each have a different pace. Start by getting to know one format well before thinking about the others.
- Choose markets with understanding: Match winner is the simplest, but top batsman or wicket markets offer more room for analysis.
- Set a budget in advance: Decide how much you will spend in each session beforehand. Betting is entertainment — do not place large bets to recover losses.
- Keep pitch and weather in mind: On a batting-friendly pitch, "over" in the runs market may be more relevant, while on a pace-friendly pitch, wicket markets may be more applicable.
- Be careful with multi bets: Potential returns are higher in a multi bet, but if any selection loses, the whole bet is gone — more than three selections is risky for beginners.
- Play responsibly: Keep betting enjoyable — if you feel it is becoming a problem, you will find support information on the responsible gaming page.
Multi Bet Example
Odds on three selections: 1.40 × 1.70 × 1.90 = 4.52
If all selections win on a ৳100 bet, return: ৳452
If any one selection loses, the entire ৳100 is gone. Team A and Team B are fictional examples only.
Betting is entertainment — there is no guarantee of winning.
