takabet3 Cricket Betting — Every Match from BPL to the World Cup
T20, ODI or Test — whatever format is being played, takabet3 lets you bet while the match is live. Markets covering match winner to top batsman are always open for BPL, IPL and international series.
Cricket's Three Formats and Bangladeshis' Favourite Tournaments
T20 — Fast and Exciting
This 20-over format is the most popular among Bangladesh's fans. BPL is held on home soil every year, and millions of cricket fans follow the IPL. The Tigers also take part in the T20 World Cup. Because the pace of play is high, betting markets shift quickly, making in-play betting especially active in this format.
ODI — The One-Day Contest
In a 50-over one-day match, a lot can change at the mid-point of an innings. ODIs are played at the ICC World Cup, Asia Cup and in bilateral series. This format offers different analytical angles — mid-match markets such as powerplay runs or the run-rate in the second innings add a distinct layer to betting.
Test — Five Days of Cricket
A Test match can take five days to produce a result, and a draw is always a possible outcome. In this format, pitch conditions, weather and a batsman's form all play a significant role in betting markets. Series winner and Test Championship points markets are also available.
Bangladeshis' Favourite Tournaments
BPL is the home celebration of T20 cricket. IPL brings all the big names onto the field, which draws huge interest from fans. Bangladesh Tigers participate in the T20 World Cup and the ICC Champions Trophy — the events cricket fans look forward to most.
Betting markets for all these tournament matches are available at takabet3. Alongside cricket, tennis betting is also growing in popularity, especially during Grand Slam season. If you are interested in casino games, you will find all the details on the takabet3 Casino page.
Beyond Cricket — Football and Other Sports
takabet3 has an active football betting market alongside cricket. Whether it is the World Cup, Premier League or Asian Cup, the structure of football markets is different. A draw is a common result in football, so markets are built around three outcomes — Team A win, Team B win or draw. Calculating the likelihood of goals throughout the match is an important part of football betting.
Cricket has no draw in limited-overs formats, so the market is limited to two teams. Understanding this difference is useful when betting — the same approach does not work across every sport. The over/under and match innings markets in cricket are as detailed as the goal-count markets in football, just structured differently.
Tennis also offers set-score markets and individual performance-based bets — all types of markets are covered in detail on the tennis betting page.
Popular Cricket Betting Markets
takabet3 offers many types of cricket betting markets. The most commonly used ones are explained in plain terms below.
Match Winner
A bet on which of the two teams will win. There is no draw in T20 or ODI, so you simply choose Team A or Team B. Example: Team A is priced at 1.80, Team B at 1.85 — if the team you back wins, you receive the return based on those odds.
Toss Winner
This market is about which team wins the toss before the match begins. Because the outcome is entirely random, the odds for both teams are usually close to equal.
Top Batsman
A bet on who will score the most runs for their team in a specific innings or across the whole match. Keeping the team's batting order and recent form in mind makes this market easier to assess.
Total Runs Over/Under
You choose whether the total runs in a match will be above (over) or below (under) a set number. Example: the line is set at 160 runs — if you think the total will be higher, select "over".
Multi Bet
Combining separate bets across multiple matches means all selections must be correct to win — for example, three selections at 1.50 × 1.70 × 1.90 = 4.84 (approximately), so a ৳100 bet returns ৳484; if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
Top Wicket Taker
A bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. On pace-friendly pitches the odds on fast bowlers are shorter, and in spin-friendly conditions the odds on spinners are shorter.
How to Read and Understand Odds
Understanding odds before starting cricket betting is important. The same price is written in three different formats — decimal, fractional and American. takabet3 generally uses the decimal format, but knowing all three is useful.
| Odds Format | Team A Win | Explanation |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | Total return on a ৳500 bet: ৳1,125 (৳625 profit + ৳500 stake back) |
| Fractional | 5/4 | ৳5 profit for every ৳4 staked — the same price, written differently |
| American | +125 | ৳125 profit on a ৳100 bet (plus sign means underdog) |
In this example, if Team A wins, a ৳500 bet returns a total of ৳1,125 — ৳625 profit plus your ৳500 stake back. If they lose, the full ৳500 is gone.
Now look at a favourite's price — Team B to win, decimal 1.25, fractional 1/4, American -400. A negative American price shows how much you need to stake to make ৳100 profit. If Team B wins with a ৳500 bet, the total return is ৳625 (৳125 profit).
Understand the difference in prices: a favourite has lower odds because they are more likely to win — so the profit is also lower. An underdog has higher odds — harder to win, but the profit is higher if they do. Enjoy betting as entertainment and only bet within your means.
Odds change constantly — prices before the match and in-play prices are different. Pay attention to the current price each time you place a bet.
Odds Shift with Every Wicket — Live In-Play Betting
Live or in-play betting means you can place bets while the match is in progress. Odds change after every ball — when a wicket falls the batting team's price lengthens, and after a four or six it shortens.
Consider this example: Team A is playing well through the first 10 overs, but two wickets fall in the 11th — Team B's chances of winning increase and their price in the betting market comes down. In-play decisions at these moments need to be made quickly.
As each over passes, the run-rate market, the next wicket market and the innings score market all shift together. On takabet3 you can see market movements alongside live score updates.
In-Play Markets You Can Bet On
- Which over the next wicket falls in
- Innings final score over/under
- Runs scored in the current over
- Match winner (at updated odds)
- Six or wicket off the next ball
