kx8 Cricket Betting — new opportunities on every ball in BPL, IPL, and international matches
Bet on every cricket format from T20 to Test. Match winner, top batsman, over/under runs — all popular markets in one place.
The three cricket formats and major tournaments
The three main cricket betting formats are T20, ODI, and Test. Each format has its own pace and markets, and kx8 supports betting on all three.
T20 is the fastest and most popular format. Betting interest is highest in BPL (Bangladesh Premier League), IPL, and the T20 World Cup. Odds shift every over, so live betting stays very active.
ODI matches span 50 overs, giving you more time to bet. Markets around run rate or the number of wickets in the middle overs can be quite interesting.
Test cricket is a long five-day game. Betting on the match winner or a draw here requires a different approach. Test betting is available for the ICC World Test Championship and international bilateral series.

Football and other sports betting
Beyond cricket, kx8 also offers football betting. In football, popular markets include both teams to score, handicap markets, and half-time/full-time results, in addition to the match winner.
The key difference between cricket and football is the innings structure. Cricket betting markets are over-based — how many runs in the next over, when will the next wicket fall, and so on. Football markets focus mainly on half-time or full-match results. Understanding this difference helps when choosing a market.
kx8 Sportsbook also has markets for kabaddi, badminton, and other sports. However, cricket remains the most popular sport among Bangladeshi bettors.
Popular betting markets
These are the most commonly used markets for cricket betting on kx8. A simple example is given for each.
Match Winner
The simplest market — pick which team will win. Example: in Team A vs Team B, if you bet on Team A and they win, you get paid.
Toss Winner
Pick which team will win the toss. The result is known before the match begins. Example: bet on Team B to win the toss — the outcome is settled as soon as the toss happens.
Top Batsman
Which batter will score the most runs? Example: pick a specific batter to be the highest scorer in Team A's innings.
Total Runs Over/Under
Will the total runs in the match be above or below a set number? Example: in a T20, total runs over 320 — if you pick Over, you win if the total is 321 or more.
Multi Bet
Combine multiple matches or events in one bet and the odds multiply. Example: pick three matches in a multi bet — all of them must win for you to get paid.
Over of First Wicket
Which over will the first wicket fall in? Example: bet that the first wicket in Team A's innings falls before the 5th over.
Handicap Betting
One team is given a virtual run advantage or disadvantage to make the match more evenly balanced. If the weaker team is given a run advantage, they can still win the bet even if they lose by a small margin — the result is judged by the run difference, and no specific stake or return applies here.
How to read odds
kx8 uses three main odds formats: decimal, fractional, and American. The examples below make it easy to understand.
| Format | Odds for Team A to win | On a ৳500 bet |
|---|---|---|
| Decimal | 2.25 | Win: returns ৳1,125 (profit ৳625 + stake ৳500); loss: ৳500 gone |
| Fractional | 5/4 | Same match, same payout — only the way it is written is different |
| American | +125 | Same match; +125 means a ৳100 bet returns ৳125 profit |
What do odds look like for a favourite?
If Team B is the favourite, their odds are lower — 1.50 in decimal, 1/2 in fractional, -200 in American. American minus odds mean you need to bet ৳200 to win ৳100 profit. On a ৳500 bet, if you win, total returns are ৳750 (profit ৳250).
Betting is for entertainment — it is a good idea to read the responsible betting guidelines before placing each bet.
Live in-play betting
At kx8 you can place bets in real time while a match is in progress — this is called in-play or live betting. Odds are recalculated after each wicket or over, so you can make decisions based on how the match is going.
For example, in a T20 if Team A has scored 70 runs in 10 overs but lost 3 wickets, the chances of Team B winning may increase — and the odds shift accordingly. You can use these changes to place new bets in the live market.
Live betting is most active in fast-paced T20 tournaments like BPL and IPL, because the situation can change on every ball and odds update at that same pace.
You can get the same real-time experience in live casino games too. Find out about kx8 Casino live casino section.
