Cricket Betting at tk685 — Enjoy BPL, IPL and International Matches
From T20 to Test — find various markets, live odds and a straightforward betting experience for every cricket format at tk685.
Cricket's three formats and the tournaments bettors follow most
The most important question in cricket betting is — which format are you betting on? Each format is played differently, so markets differ and the nature of the odds changes too.
T20 is the fastest format. With only 20 overs per innings, the pace is high, scores shift quickly, and even small moments have an immediate impact on the odds. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), IPL and the ICC T20 World Cup are the three tournaments most popular among Bangladeshi bettors.
ODI, or One Day International, has 50 overs per innings. The pace is relatively slower, but more strategic betting markets are available. The Bangladesh Tigers' major international series usually come in ODI format.
Test cricket is the long five-day format. A match can end in a draw, so the betting market includes three outcomes (Team A win, Team B win, draw) — which T20 and ODI do not have. In Test cricket, pitch conditions and weather have a significant effect on odds.
| Format | Overs | Draw possible? | Betting features |
|---|---|---|---|
| T20 | 20 overs/innings | No | Fast odds changes, more live markets |
| ODI | 50 overs/innings | No (except Super Over) | More strategic markets, longer sessions |
| Test | Unlimited (5 days) | Yes | Three outcomes, pitch and weather matter |
How football and other sports betting differs
Alongside cricket, you can also bet on football at tk685. Football matches generally have three outcomes — home win, away win and draw. T20 and ODI cricket do not end in draws, so those markets offer two outcomes to bet on.
Football features goal-line, handicap and correct score markets more prominently, while cricket is led by wickets, run rate and partnership-based markets. Live betting is available for both — odds update instantly after every goal or wicket.

Popular betting markets in cricket
Multiple markets are available in each match. Each has its own characteristics — here are seven popular markets explained in plain terms.
Match Winner
Bet on which team will win the match. Two options in T20 and ODI (Team A or Team B), three in Test (including draw). Example: if you think Team A will win, place your bet on Team A; if Team A wins, your bet is successful.
Toss Winner
Bet on which team will win the toss before the match starts. The result is known within seconds. Depending on pitch conditions, the toss-winning team may choose to bat or field first.
Top Batsman
Bet on who will score the most runs for a specific team in the match. This market becomes interesting when a batter is in good form. Separate markets are available for each team.
Total Runs Over/Under
Bet on whether the total runs in a match or innings will be over or under a set number. Example: total runs over or under 150 — if the pitch is batting-friendly, the over may be more likely.
Top Wicket Taker
Bet on which bowler will take the most wickets in the match. On spin-friendly pitches, spinners' markets tend to be more active; on pace-friendly pitches, pacers' markets are.
Multi Bet
Combine multiple bets into one — if every selection is correct, all the odds are multiplied together. Example: selecting three teams to win in three different matches gives much higher combined odds, but if even one selection is wrong, the entire bet loses.
Man of the Match
Bet on who will be named the best player in the match. Usually the batter or bowler who puts in the most influential performance receives this award. Odds are generally spread wide because any player could win.
Decimal, fractional and American odds — three formats with simple examples
Odds on a betting site are written in three different formats. The numbers look different but represent the same probability — only the way they are expressed differs. The two examples below cover all three formats.
Say you think Team A will win, stake ৳500. The same odds written in three formats:
- Decimal: 3.00 — total return including stake is ৳1,500 (৳1,000 profit + ৳500 stake back).
- Fractional: 2/1 — ৳2 profit for every ৳1 staked.
- American: +200 — ৳200 profit on a ৳100 stake.
If the bet loses, the full ৳500 is gone — the loss is the same across all three formats.
Team B is more likely to win. With a ৳500 stake, the same odds in three formats:
- Decimal: 1.25 — total return ৳625 (only ৳125 profit).
- Fractional: 1/4 — ৳1 profit for every ৳4 staked.
- American: -400 — ৳400 stake needed to win ৳100.
In the American format, a minus sign means the favourite — the number shows how much you need to stake to win ৳100.
How are odds calculated in a multi bet?
If three selections have decimal odds of 1.40, 1.80 and 1.90, the combined odds are:
A ৳100 stake returns ৳479 — but if even one selection is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
Multi bets offer higher potential returns, but the risk is also higher — betting is entertainment, not a reliable source of income.
Odds shift when a wicket falls — live in-play betting
Live betting means you can place bets as the match goes on — after each ball or each wicket. At tk685, live markets offer real-time odds that change with what is happening on the field.
Example: at the start of a match, the odds for Team A and Team B may be roughly equal. If Team A's top batter gets out in the first over, Team B's odds to win may drop suddenly (meaning Team B is now the favourite). If Team A's next batter scores quickly, the odds may even out again.
If many wickets fall in the powerplay, odds shift dramatically. Whether a team's target is within reach or far away in the final over — live market odds reflect that in real time.
In live betting, decisions have to be made quickly because odds change in an instant. Betting live on the tk685 app from your mobile is even more convenient — find out more about the tk685 app.
Things to keep in mind before you start cricket betting
- Start with one market. The match winner market is the simplest — two outcomes, straightforward odds. It is the best place to start for beginners. Get comfortable with one market before trying multiple at the same time.
- Set your expectations by format. A team that usually performs well in T20 may perform differently in Test. Understanding each format's own tactics and the influence of pitch and weather makes it easier to choose a market.
- Set a budget in advance. Betting is for entertainment — decide beforehand how much you are willing to spend on it and stick to that limit. Avoid the tendency to place bigger bets to recover losses.
- Do not rush in live betting. Even when odds change fast, take a moment before each bet. Live market bets generally cannot be cancelled, so only place a bet once you are sure of your decision.
- Keep selections low in a multi bet. Every selection you add increases the potential return but reduces the chance of all of them being correct. Multi bets with more than three or four selections generally become difficult to win.
- Play responsibly. To read a detailed guide on betting, visit the responsible gaming page — it has advice on setting limits and maintaining healthy betting habits.
Betting is entertainment only
Cricket betting can add a little something extra to the experience of watching a match. But it is not a reliable source of income. Every bet can go either way — keep that in mind, and enjoy it for what it is.
