Cricket is a unique sport in that it comes in three distinct formats — and each one offers its own betting experience. d21 covers all three with comprehensive markets and competitive odds.
Twenty overs per side — matches wrap up in 3 to 4 hours. The fastest and most exciting format for in-play betting. IPL, ICC T20 World Cup, and Malaysia T20 League all run in this format.
Fifty overs per side, with deeper strategic layers and over management compared to T20. The ICC Cricket World Cup is the pinnacle of this format. d21's ODI markets cover over 50 types, including half-time score, top scorer, and much more.
The oldest and most prestigious format in cricket. Five days of play with unmatched tactical depth. d21's Test markets include series result, individual innings result, and session winner markets.
From straightforward bets like match winner to specialist markets like total runs in a specific over — d21 offers an endless range of options.
Pick the team you think will win the match. The most fundamental market on d21 and the easiest for new players to understand.
Bet on which side will win the toss. Odds are usually close to 50–50, making it one of the simpler betting opportunities available.
Pick which player will score the most runs in an innings or match. A fan favourite during IPL and the ICC World Cup.
Pick the bowler most likely to take the most wickets. Depends on pitch conditions and the opposing team's batting lineup.
Bet on how many runs will be scored in a specific over. Extremely popular for in-play betting during T20 matches on d21.
Predict the total runs scored by the first team in the opening 6 overs (powerplay). A popular pre-match market for T20 betting.
Over/under on the number of wickets to fall in an innings or across the full match. Outcome depends on the balance of bowling strength vs. batting depth.
Bet on how many sixes (6 runs) will be hit in a match. T20 games typically produce more sixes than ODIs.
Pick the player who will be named the best performer of the match. Depends on individual analysis of key players from both sides.
Cricket may not be the first sport that comes to mind when Malaysians talk about Sports Betting. Football, badminton and esports tend to get more of the spotlight. But over the past two to three years, cricket betting at d21 has grown at a remarkable pace — and there are solid reasons behind that growth.
Malaysia has a large cricket fan base, especially among the Indian-Malaysian community and those who follow the IPL every season. Combined with the popularity of the ICC T20 World Cup and the resurgence of Malaysia's national cricket team in Asian competitions, interest in the sport has been spreading across all walks of life. d21 spotted this opportunity early and built a cricket section more comprehensive than any other platform catering to Malaysian players.
If you're new to cricket betting, start with T20. It's the most beginner-friendly format — matches wrap up in 3 to 4 hours, the pace of play is high, and the result can swing dramatically in a short space of time. This makes in-play betting on d21 particularly exciting — you can watch the match, read how the game is developing, and place bets based on exactly what you're seeing unfold in front of you.
One of the most popular in-play markets on d21 during T20s is "runs in the next over". You're betting on how many runs will be scored in the upcoming over. If the bowler left on is a spin bowler who isn't turning it much and the batter facing is a right-handed power hitter who feeds on spin — the over/under high odds could offer good value. On the flip side, if the team's best pace bowler has just come on and the batter at the crease is a newcomer who hasn't settled in yet — the value might well sit on the lower end.
This is the kind of thinking that sets cricket betting apart from simply "guessing the winner". Cricket, more than most sports, gives knowledgeable players a genuine edge, since a wealth of information is publicly available — player statistics, head-to-head records, pitch conditions, wind patterns, and humidity levels can all influence the game.
The Indian Premier League, or IPL, is the most-watched T20 league in the world, and it is also the single biggest driver of cricket betting volume on d21 Malaysia every year. Each IPL season, which gets underway around March or April, sees the number of active cricket bettors on d21 rise sharply.
There are several reasons why the IPL is ideal for betting. First, it features the world's best players from every major cricket nation — India, Australia, England, South Africa, the West Indies — competing in a highly intense environment. Player statistics are extensive and constantly updated. Second, the league format means there are dozens of matches across the season to follow — not just one or two big fixtures a year. This spreads betting opportunities across several months.
Third — and this is arguably the most important point for Malaysian players — IPL matches typically start in the Indian evening, which means they kick off between 5:30 PM and 8:00 PM Malaysian time. It's an incredibly convenient window to watch and bet: you're already home from work, dinner is done, and you can give the match your full attention. d21 offers IPL odds from a week before each match right through to in-play live betting once the action begins.
d21 Note: All cricket bets at d21 can be placed with a minimum deposit of RM 20 via Touch 'n Go, GrabPay or DuitNow. Winnings are credited to your account within 15 minutes of the match ending.
One thing d21 is proud of is that we don't focus solely on major international cricket. Malaysia's national cricket team and domestic competitions such as the Malaysia T20 League are also available for betting on our platform — something you'll rarely find on other platforms catering to Malaysian players.
The Malaysia cricket team has shown encouraging progress in ACC (Asian Cricket Council) tournaments and several ICC World Cricket League competitions in recent years. Local players such as Virandeep Singh, Anwar Arudin, and Zubaidi Zulkifle are well-known names within the Malaysian cricket community. Betting on your own team is a great way to support the sport as it continues to grow in our country.
For Malaysian cricket betting at d21, the recommended strategy is to understand the team's squad composition. Malaysia are typically strong in spin bowling on home pitches where conditions favour turn. Their home record is significantly better than their away record — a factor worth weighing when choosing match-winner markets.
Cricket odds can look confusing at first because they move so frequently during in-play — sometimes after every single ball. Understanding why the odds shift is the key to finding betting value in cricket.
When a new batter walks in after a wicket falls, the batting side's odds will shift depending on who that player is. A seasoned name like Rohit Sharma coming to the crease will move odds in favour of the batting side, while a tail-ender will push odds toward the fielding side. At d21, you can watch these odds movements in real time and use that information to inform your in-play bets.
Pitch conditions are another factor that significantly influence cricket odds. A damp or dewy pitch in the early morning assists swing bowlers. A cracked surface on day four or five of a Test helps spinners. A pitch with a heavy grass cover at the start of a match favours fast bowlers. d21 provides up-to-date pitch condition reports as part of its match information, helping players make better-informed betting decisions.
Combining all of this — player statistics, pitch conditions, head-to-head records, injury news — with live match flow monitoring during in-play is the approach experienced cricket bettors on d21 use to consistently find value bets.

In-play cricket betting is among the most thrilling experiences in all of sport — odds shift with every ball as the game unfolds. Here's how to make the most of it on d21.
Don't rush into a bet. Watch the first 2–3 overs to get a feel for the pitch conditions, outfield pace and how the ball is behaving before placing your first wager.
In cricket, momentum shifts with every wicket. When a batting side loses 2–3 quick wickets, their odds lengthen — there can be real value in backing them if an experienced batter is coming in next.
The first six overs of a T20 (the powerplay) often set the tone for the entire innings. If a strong team starts slowly through the powerplay, their odds may be longer than their true value warrants.
The final six overs of a T20 are the most dramatic — run rates spike sharply. The "over/under runs 17–20" market offers excellent in-play value depending on who is batting and who is bowling.
Each format has its own characteristics that shape how you approach betting. Choose the format that best suits your style and schedule.
