tk11 Cricket Betting — bet on every format from T20 to Test
Betting on Bangladesh's most popular sport is now easier. BPL, IPL, T20 World Cup — place bets across a range of markets on every match at tk11 and read all information in Bengali.
Cricket Formats and Tournaments — a betting perspective
Understanding the format makes understanding the markets easier
Twenty20 Format
Just 20 overs per innings — matches end quickly, so betting markets move fast. Both BPL and IPL use the T20 format, which is the most familiar to Bangladeshi fans. Live odds shift rapidly after each over.
One-Day Match
The 50-over ODI format gives betting opportunities that last longer. ICC World Cup and bilateral series are played in this format. Because the situation can change mid-match, in-play markets are quite popular here.
Test Cricket
In this five-day format, a draw is a valid result — so there are three markets: Team A wins, Team B wins, or the match is drawn. Over a long match, pitch conditions, weather and batting order all influence the odds.
BPL, IPL and International Matches
The Bangladesh Premier League (BPL) is the biggest annual event for cricket fans in the country. Because the matches are played at home grounds, interest in betting on familiar players and teams is naturally higher.
IPL takes place every April–May and, as the biggest T20 league in the world, offers the broadest betting markets. Detailed markets for the T20 World Cup and other ICC tournaments are also available at tk11.
Remember, cricket betting is for entertainment — whether Team A or Team B wins, the main goal is to enjoy the game. Betting is only for those aged 21 and above.
Popular Betting Markets and Examples
How to bet on each cricket market — a brief explanation of each one
Match Winner
This market is simply about which of the two teams will win the match. In T20 and ODI there are two options (two teams); in Test there are three (Team A / Team B / Draw). The most familiar market and the easiest for beginners.
Most PopularToss Winner
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The result is known before play begins, making this a quick, short-term market.
Quick ResultTop Batsman
Bet on which batsman will score the most runs in an innings or across the whole match. A team's most dependable batsmen usually have lower odds.
Specialist MarketTotal Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether the total runs in an innings or across the full match will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. Pitch and weather conditions play a major role in this market.
Statistics-BasedMulti Bet
A single bet built from multiple matches or markets combined. If every selection is correct, the odds multiply to give a much larger return — but if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet loses.
High OddsHandicap Betting
A weaker team is given a virtual head start in runs or wickets to make the match feel more even. This market makes one-sided matches more interesting.
Balanced MarketA Guide to Understanding Odds — Three Formats
The same odds written three different ways — how to read each one
Example 1 — The value of a win shown in three formats
৳200 is placed on Team A to win. The odds are: Decimal 3.00 = Fractional 2/1 = American +200. If Team A wins — the return is ৳600 (৳400 profit + ৳200 original stake). If Team A loses, ৳200 is gone.
Example 2 — Odds for the favourite team
Because Team B is expected to win, their odds are lower: Decimal 1.25 = Fractional 1/4 = American -400. A negative American odds figure means how much you need to stake to make a ৳100 profit. Staking ৳200 here returns ৳250 (just ৳50 profit).
The decimal format is the simplest — just multiply the number by your stake to get the total return. tk11 generally uses the decimal format, but knowing the other two is useful on any site.
Odds Format Comparison
| Format | Value | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 3.00 | Stake × 3 = total return |
| Fractional | 2/1 | ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked |
| American (+) | +200 | ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake |
| American (-) | -400 | ৳400 stake needed to make ৳100 profit |
These figures are examples only — live odds change with the market.
Live In-Play Betting — odds change as the match goes on
In-play betting becomes active as soon as the match starts. After each wicket falls, the bowling team's odds shorten and the batting team's odds lengthen. Equally, a big six or a boundary can shift a batsman's top-scorer odds right away.
When the match tightens up in the final over, live market odds move at their fastest. It is wise to set yourself a budget before placing bets at this stage.
Live betting on mobile is available at tk11 — in the tk11 app, all markets are visible on one screen, making it possible to decide quickly. Even so, live betting should always be kept within limits that are comfortable for you.
Football and Other Sports — how they differ from cricket
Betting structures vary across different sports
Alongside cricket, football betting is also available at tk11. In football, the match winner market usually has three options — home team wins, draw, or away team wins. T20 cricket has no draw, so there are two options. Test cricket allows a draw again — this difference is worth keeping in mind when reading the markets.
Football has a combined half-time and full-time result market that does not exist in cricket. Cricket has its own specialist markets such as highest-scoring over, maiden over, or five-wicket haul — these are found only in cricket.

- Cricket-specific markets based on wickets and overs
Multi Bet and Higher Return Examples
How odds grow when you combine multiple matches
Three separate selections with decimal odds of 1.40, 1.70 and 1.90 are placed in a multi bet. The combined odds come to 1.40 × 1.70 × 1.90 = 4.52 (approximately). A ৳100 bet returns ৳452 if all three selections are correct. However, if even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
Multi bets are appealing because there is a chance of a large return from a small stake. But every selection must be correct independently — getting three matches right at the same time is difficult. Think of a multi bet as a form of entertainment.
Multi Bet Calculation — Example
Selection 1: 1.40 ×
Selection 2: 1.70 ×
Selection 3: 1.90
= Combined odds 4.52
৳100 bet → ৳452 return if all three win
If any one loses → ৳100 lost in full.
These figures are for illustration only. Actual odds vary by match and market.
Useful Tips for Enjoying Betting
Betting for entertainment — some good habits
- Set a budget before you start. Put aside a fixed amount that you can afford to lose without it affecting your daily life. Do not go beyond that limit.
- Start with one market. The match winner market is the simplest — get comfortable with it before moving on to other markets gradually.
- No rushing in live betting. Odds change fast, but take a few seconds to make the right decision.
- Do not increase your bet to chase losses. Placing a larger bet after losing a match to try to recover is risky — each match is independent.
- Choose markets that suit the format. The toss matters more in T20; the pitch matters more in Test. Understanding which markets are most relevant to each format makes reading odds easier too.
- Play responsibly. Betting is never a source of income — it is a form of entertainment. Read the responsible gaming guidelines for more information.
