Cricket Formats Explained
Understanding the differences between cricket formats helps you pick the right betting markets. Here is a quick guide for Bangladesh bettors.
Each team faces exactly 20 overs (120 balls), making a match last roughly 3 hours. T20 is the most bettor-friendly format — fast scoring, frequent wickets, and a huge range of in-play markets like next-ball outcome, fall of wicket, and over/under runs. BPL and IPL are the flagship T20 leagues for Bangladesh and Indian bettors respectively.
Each side bats for 50 overs, with a typical match lasting 7-8 hours. ODI betting offers deeper markets including partnership runs, player milestones, and method of dismissal. The ICC Cricket World Cup and Asia Cup are the marquee ODI events — both heavily popular with bettors from Dhaka to Sylhet.
Played over up to 5 days with unlimited overs per innings, Test cricket rewards patience. Betting markets here focus on session results, day-end score, top batsman/bowler, and match result (win/draw/win). Bangladesh's Test rivalry with India, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka generates significant betting interest among hardcore cricket fans.
Each team faces exactly 100 balls per innings, with each bowler delivering 5 or 10 consecutive balls. Matches finish in about 2.5 hours. The Hundred, played in England, is growing in popularity among South Asian bettors for its compact, high-energy format and accessible in-play markets.
BPL (Bangladesh Premier League) is the home T20 league and the most-followed event for local bettors. IPL (Indian Premier League) is the world's richest T20 league, with massive global betting volume. BBL (Big Bash League, Australia) and PSL (Pakistan Super League) round out the T20 calendar with strong South Asian viewership. All four leagues feature competitive odds and live in-play markets on 98ab.

Gaming Lounge — Featured Games
Deep dives into 98ab's most-played titles — learn the rules, strategy, and what makes each game worth your time.
Texas Hold'em is the world's most-played poker variant and a flagship title in the 98ab casino. Each player receives two hole cards and shares five community cards to build the strongest possible five-card hand. After completing 98ab login, you can join cash tables or multi-table tournaments with buy-ins starting from ৳200.
- Each player is dealt two private hole cards face down.
- The dealer reveals three community cards (the Flop), followed by one more (the Turn) and a final card (the River).
- Players bet, raise, call, or fold at each street — managing risk relative to hand strength.
- The player with the best five-card combination at showdown wins the pot.
European Roulette uses a single-zero wheel (37 pockets), giving it a house edge of just 2.7% — significantly better than American Roulette's 5.26%. On 98ab, HD live-streamed tables from Evolution Gaming let you place inside and outside bets with minimum stakes from ৳50, making it accessible to bettors in Chittagong, Rajshahi, and beyond.
- Choose your chip value and place chips on the desired number(s), color, or range on the table layout.

- Winning bets are paid according to the standard payout table (straight up pays 35:1, red/black pays 1:1).
- Repeat your bet or adjust stakes for the next spin.
Aviator by Spribe is a social crash game where a plane's multiplier climbs from 1x upward and you must cash out before it flies away. The game is provably fair with a certified RNG, and available to all players after 98ab app download. Rounds last 8-30 seconds, making it ideal for quick sessions between cricket matches.
- Place your bet before the round starts — minimum stake ৳20.
- Watch the plane take off — the multiplier increases from 1x as long as the plane flies.
- Press Cash Out at any point to secure your winnings at the current multiplier.
- If you do not cash out before the plane crashes, your stake is lost for that round.
Dragon Tiger is one of the simplest and fastest card games in the 98ab live casino — a two-card comparison game where you bet on Dragon, Tiger, or Tie. Hugely popular with players from Dhaka and Sylhet who want quick, low-complexity rounds with clear outcomes.
- Place your bet on Dragon, Tiger, or Tie before the timer expires.

Betting Glossary
New to online betting? These key terms will help you understand how casino and sportsbook games work before you play.
Return to Player — the theoretical percentage of wagered money a game pays back to players over time. A slot with 96% RTP returns ৳96 for every ৳100 wagered on average.
The mathematical advantage the casino holds over players on any given game. It is the inverse of RTP — a game with 97% RTP has a 3% house edge.
The amount of money you place on a single bet or spin. Managing your stake relative to your bankroll is essential for responsible gaming.
A numerical expression of the likelihood of an outcome and the potential payout. In sports betting, odds of 2.00 on a cricket match mean you double your stake if your selection wins.
A single bet combining two or more selections — all must win for the bet to pay out. Higher risk but significantly higher potential returns than single bets.
A bet placed after an event has already started, with odds updating in real time based on match developments. Live cricket betting on 98ab lets you bet ball by ball.
The total amount of money you have set aside specifically for gambling. Good bankroll management means never wagering more than you can comfortably afford to lose.
In slots, volatility describes the frequency and size of payouts. High-volatility slots pay less often but in larger amounts; low-volatility slots pay smaller amounts more frequently.
A bonus spin on a slot machine that costs the player nothing. Free spins are awarded as welcome bonuses, in-game scatter triggers, or loyalty rewards — and any winnings from them are subject to wagering requirements.
The number of times you must wager a bonus amount before withdrawing winnings derived from it. For example, a ৳1,000 bonus with a 20x wagering requirement means you must place ৳20,000 in total bets before cashing out bonus-derived funds.
Cricket Sponsorships & Team Partnerships
The online betting industry has become a significant sponsor across South Asian cricket. Here is an overview of publicly known partnerships in the Bangladesh market context — presented as industry context, not as claims by 98ab.
Babu88, a regional betting brand popular in Bangladesh, has been publicly associated with sponsorship of Montreal Tigers and Colombo Strikers in The Hundred-format tournaments, increasing brand visibility among South Asian cricket audiences.
Crickex has established itself as a cricket-focused betting sponsor across South Asia, partnering with regional T20 leagues and tournaments to build credibility specifically among cricket bettors in Bangladesh and India.
Jeetbuzz, another betting platform active in the Bangladesh market, has publicly named West Indian cricket star Andre Russell as a brand ambassador — a strategy widely used by betting operators to build trust and recognition in cricket-loving markets.
Across the Bangladesh and Indian markets, online betting brands increasingly sponsor BPL franchises, ICC events, and grassroots cricket tournaments. This reflects the deep cultural connection between cricket and betting in South Asia — a trend that has grown substantially since the expansion of mobile internet access in Dhaka, Chittagong, and beyond.
RTP & House Edge Explained
Understanding how the mathematics behind casino games works will help you make smarter decisions about where and how you play.
RTP stands for Return to Player and is expressed as a percentage. A slot game with 96% RTP will, on average over millions of spins, return ৳96 for every ৳100 wagered. It is a long-run statistical measure — not a guarantee for any single session. Higher RTP means lower house advantage and a better theoretical return for the player.
Different game types carry very different RTP ranges. Video slots typically range from 92% to 98% RTP depending on the provider and title. Blackjack played with basic strategy sits close to 99% RTP — one of the best in any casino. European Roulette has an RTP of approximately 97.3% (house edge 2.7%), while American Roulette drops to 94.7% due to the double-zero pocket. Baccarat on the Banker bet offers around 98.9% RTP.
House edge is simply the flip side of RTP — it represents the average percentage of each bet the casino retains as profit over the long run. A 3% house edge on a game means that for every ৳1,000 wagered in aggregate, the house expects to keep ৳30. Understanding house edge helps you compare games and select those that give your bankroll the best chance of lasting through a session.
Before playing any game on 98ab or any other platform, it is worth checking the published RTP in the game information panel. Reputable providers like Pragmatic Play, NetEnt, and Evolution Gaming publish verified RTP figures for all their titles. Choosing higher-RTP games, combined with disciplined bankroll management and responsible gaming habits, is the single most practical step any player can take to maximize their entertainment value per taka wagered.
