takabet 16 Cricket Betting — Bet on BPL and International Matches
From T20 to Test — join various betting markets including match winner, toss and top batsman across every format. A betting platform built for cricket fans in Bangladesh.
Cricket Formats and Competitions
Cricket is the most popular sport in Bangladesh, and interest in cricket betting continues to grow. Matches are played in three main formats — T20, ODI and Test. Each format has its own character, so it is natural for betting strategies to differ as well.
T20 is the shortest format — in a 20-over match, the situation can change in an instant. BPL is Bangladesh's biggest T20 league, where the country's top players face each other. IPL is India's franchise league but is extremely popular among Bangladesh fans. The ICC T20 World Cup is the highest stage for this format at the international level.
ODI one-day cricket matches end in 50 overs. The pace of play is a little slower in this format, so the betting markets are more varied. The ICC Cricket World Cup is the major event for the ODI format.
Test is the longest and most traditional five-day format. Draw is a possible result, so betting markets here are structured differently.
Betting on Football and Other Sports
Alongside cricket, takabet 16 also offers betting on football. In football, three results are possible in a 90-minute match — home win, away win or draw. This three-way market is distinct from cricket's two-way market (except in Test). Football also has specific markets such as corner kicks, goalscorer and half-time result.
Basketball is also a fast-paced sport where point spread and over/under markets are particularly popular. Visit our basketball page to learn more about basketball betting.
The key difference is: in cricket, match progress is divided into many stages (each over, each wicket), so odds change repeatedly during live betting. In football, this change typically happens at the time of a goal or a yellow or red card.
Football vs Cricket
- Cricket — 2 or 3 outcomes (depending on format)
- Football — 3 outcomes (win/loss/draw)
- Live odds more active in cricket
- Multi bet available for both sports
Popular Betting Markets
Match Winner
SimplestBet by answering just one question — which of the two teams will win. Example: if Team A wins the bet is successful, if Team B wins the bet is lost.
Toss Winner
Quick ResultA market on who will win the toss before the match begins. There is no connection to the rest of the match — the result is decided as soon as the toss is done.
Top Batsman
Team-basedA market on which batter will score the most runs in a given team. The result is determined across the team's full innings.
Total Runs Over/Under
Runs-basedIn this market you decide whether the total runs in an innings will be above (over) or below (under) a set number.
Multi Bet
Multiple SelectionsAdd multiple matches or markets to the same bet slip. If all selections are correct, the odds multiply for a larger return — but if one loses, the entire bet is lost.
Wicket Market
Test/ODIA market where you bet on bowling performance — how many wickets a bowler will take or the total number of wickets in a match.
How to Understand Odds
Betting odds are written in three formats — decimal, fractional and American. All three express the same probability, just written differently.
Example 1 — ৳200 bet on Team A to win
| Format | Value |
|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.50 |
| Fractional | 3/2 |
| American | +150 |
| Return if win | ৳500 (৳300 profit + ৳200 bet) |
| If lost | ৳200 lost |
Example 2 — ৳200 bet on favourite Team B to win
| Format | Value |
|---|---|
| Decimal | 1.80 |
| Fractional | 4/5 |
| American | -125 (bet 125 to win 100) |
| Return if win | ৳360 (৳160 profit + ৳200 bet) |
An easy way to remember decimal odds
Bet × decimal odds = total return. Profit = total return − bet amount. American minus odds (-) means favourite — betting that amount gives ৳100 profit.
Live In-Play Betting
Live betting is the option to place bets while a match is in progress. In cricket this is especially useful because the situation changes with every ball, every over and every wicket — and the odds change along with it.
Powerplay Start
If big runs are scored in the first six overs, the batting team's odds shorten and the bowling team's odds lengthen.
Quick Wicket Fall
If the top order falls quickly, the bowling team's match winner odds shorten.
Death Overs (16–20)
The total runs over/under market sees the most movement in the last five overs.
Chase
In the second innings, odds are updated in real time according to the required run rate.
Before making a decision in live betting, watch the current state of the match carefully. Betting is for entertainment — set a budget before placing each bet.
Useful Tips for Cricket Betting
-
Choose markets based on the format. Match winner and total runs markets are more common in T20; session betting and wicket markets draw separate interest in Test.
-
Set your budget first. Decide how much you will spend in each betting session before you start. Betting is part of entertainment — stick to your limit.
-
Be careful with multi bets. Adding more selections does increase the odds, but one loss takes the entire bet. Starting with fewer selections is safer.
-
No rushing in live betting. Odds change quickly, so make decisions by watching how the match unfolds. Bet through observation, not emotion.
-
Play responsibly. Placing larger bets to recover lost money is not a good strategy. Reading the responsible gaming guidelines will help you keep betting within the bounds of entertainment.
-
Understand odds formats. Decimal, fractional and American all express the same information. Keeping the two examples above in mind will let you read any odds.
