Cricket Betting at l789 — Best Odds and Markets for BPL, IPL and International Matches
Across every cricket format — T20, ODI and Test — l789 offers a range of betting markets, easy-to-read odds and live in-play betting. Enjoy every moment from before the first ball to the very last.
Cricket's Three Formats and Favourite Tournaments
T20 is the most familiar format for cricket fans in Bangladesh. BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) and the ICC T20 World Cup draw the most interest thanks to their short, fast-paced action and quick results. Run rates shift with every over, and a falling wicket moves the markets instantly — making T20 betting lively and dynamic.
ODI cricket's 50-over structure lets you assess a team's position at the midpoint of a match. While big leagues like the IPL feature more T20 matches than ODIs, international series include a large number of ODI games. Test cricket spans five days, leaving room for a draw, so three separate markets exist — Team A wins, Team B wins, Draw.
At l789, in addition to BPL and IPL, you can bet on international bilateral series and ICC tournaments. A "Series Winner" market opens before each tournament begins.
Betting on Football and Other Sports
Football Betting
A draw is a common result in football, so you need to account for three possible outcomes when placing a bet. Handicap and Over/Under goals markets are also popular. Live betting is available here as in cricket, but odds shift quickly whenever a goal is scored.
Cricket vs Other Sports
Cricket has no breaks — wickets, boundaries and over completions continuously influence odds throughout an innings. In football or kabaddi, scoring is lower, so odds stay relatively stable between major events. At l789, you can bet on cricket, football and several other sports.
If you are also interested in casino games beyond sports, l789 Casino has slots, live casino and much more.
Popular Betting Markets and Examples
The following markets are available for cricket at l789. A simple example is provided alongside each one to make things clear.
- Match Winner Pick which team will win the match. There are no draws in T20 — place your bet on one of two outcomes: Team A or Team B.
- Toss Winner Bet on the outcome of the toss before the match begins. This is the shortest-duration market — it is settled as soon as the match starts.
- Top Batsman Pick which team's batsman will score the most runs in the match. Openers generally face more balls.
- Total Runs Over/Under Bet on whether the innings total will be above (Over) or below (Under) a set number. For example: will total runs exceed 165?
- Multi Bet Select outcomes from multiple matches together — if all are correct, the odds multiply. If even one is wrong, the entire bet is lost.
- Handicap Betting A run advantage is given to the weaker team before betting. The result is determined with that margin applied — for example, if Team A is given a 10-run handicap, that margin is factored into the outcome.
- First Over Runs Bet on the total runs scored in the first over of an innings. A wicket or a boundary changes the result.
Tips for Choosing a Market
If you are new, start with simpler markets like Match Winner or Top Batsman. Adding more selections to a Multi Bet increases the odds but also raises the risk by the same proportion. Betting is for entertainment — set a budget before you spend. For more details, read the responsible gaming guide.
How to Read Odds — Three Formats
Cricket betting odds appear in three formats — Decimal, Fractional and American. All three express the same probability; only the way they are written differs. The two examples below will make this clear.
Example 1 — The Same Price in Three Formats
Suppose you bet on Team A to win — here is the same price shown in all three formats at once:
Decimal: 2.25 | Fractional: 5/4 | American: +125
On a ৳1,000 bet, if Team A wins you receive ৳2,250 (৳1,250 profit + ৳1,000 original stake). If Team A loses, you lose ৳1,000.
Example 2 — Odds for the Favourite
When Team B is the favourite, their odds are lower. The same bet in three formats:
Decimal: 1.25 | Fractional: 1/4 | American: -400
American minus odds indicate how much you need to stake to make a ৳100 profit. On a ৳1,000 bet, if Team B wins you receive ৳1,250 (৳250 profit).
l789 generally displays odds in Decimal format — it is the easiest to read. The higher the odds, the lower the probability of winning, but the higher the return.
Odds Shift When Wickets Fall — Live Betting
Betting while a match is in progress is called live or in-play betting. In T20 cricket, every ball — a wicket, a four, a six, a wide — has an immediate effect on the odds.
Example: if Team A goes from 80/1 to 80/4 in 10 overs, the odds for Team B to win drop noticeably. At exactly that moment, new bets can be placed in the live market.
There is less time to decide in live betting — so understand the market before the action starts. For live betting at l789 from anywhere, using the l789 App is convenient.
Before you start betting, some practical advice
Cricket betting is a form of entertainment. Keeping these tips in mind will help you stay in control.
Set a Budget First
Decide how much you will spend per session before you begin. Stop when you reach that limit.
Start With One Market
Begin with a straightforward market like Match Winner. As you gain experience, gradually try others.
No Rushing in Live Betting
Odds move fast in live betting. Avoid making decisions in the heat of the moment without thinking them through.
Keep Selections Low in Multi Bets
The more selections in a Multi Bet, the greater the risk. Keeping it to three or fewer selections is advisable.

Get Started at l789 — Bonus, Payments and More
On your first deposit you get a 120% bonus, up to ৳10,000 — for example, deposit ৳1,000 and ৳1,200 in bonus is added, giving a total balance of ৳2,200 (wagering requirement: ৳1,200 × 15 = ৳18,000). Minimum deposit is just ৳100. Deposits and withdrawals are available via bKash, Nagad, Rocket, Upay and bank transfer. Normal withdrawal processing time is 15 minutes to 2 hours. Joining the VIP program also gives you weekly cashback.
How Multi Bet Works
In a Multi Bet, you select outcomes from multiple matches or events together. If all selections are correct, all the odds are multiplied — meaning the return can be much higher than a single bet.
Example (three selections):
Three matches with odds: 1.40 × 1.60 × 1.80 = 4.03 (approx.)
If you place a ৳100 bet and all selections are correct, you get back ৳403. If even one is wrong, the full ৳100 is lost.
No separate setup is needed for multi bets at l789 — just add multiple selections to the bet slip and a multi bet is created automatically. If you don't have an account, go to the l789 login page to register.
