Why Is Sports Betting So Popular in Bangladesh?
People in Bangladesh don't just watch sports — they want to be part of the action. x89 turns that passion into opportunity. Alongside watching a match, you can put your analysis and instincts to work by placing bets. Whether it's cricket or football, the connection Bangladeshis have with these two sports becomes even more thrilling through x89's Sports Betting section.
Getting started with Sports Betting at x89 is simple. Register with your mobile number, deposit as little as BDT 100 via Mobile Banking or Nagad, then place your bets on your favourite matches. Everything is available in Bangla — navigation, odds, and support. No language barriers.
Cricket Betting — Bangladesh's biggest attraction
When the Bangladesh cricket team takes the field, the whole country comes alive with excitement. x89 lets you take that excitement up a notch. ICC World Cup, Asia Cup, BPL, IPL, BBL — all the major tournaments are covered here. And it goes well beyond just picking a match winner. x89 offers so many cricket betting markets, you'll be surprised at how many you never knew existed.
- Match Winner — which team will win the match
- Toss Betting — who will win the toss
- Top Batsman — who will score the most runs
- Over/Under — runs scored in a specific over

Live betting deserves a special mention. With x89's in-play feature, you get real-time odds as the match unfolds. When fours and sixes flow in one over, the odds for the next over shift instantly. This kind of dynamic betting is especially appealing to experienced bettors.
Football Betting — The World's Top Leagues, All in One Place
Football's popularity in Bangladesh is second to none. Staying up late to watch European leagues is a ritual many fans know well. x89 covers virtually all the major leagues — EPL, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Champions League, and more. The Bangladesh Premier League is here too.
The variety of football betting markets is what makes x89 stand out. Beyond simple match results, you'll find Both Teams to Score (BTTS), correct score, half-time result, corner betting, card betting, and much more. Seasoned bettors build a portfolio by placing bets across multiple markets within the same match.
Kabaddi & Local Sports — the excitement of home turf
Beyond cricket and football, x89 also offers betting on kabaddi, basketball, volleyball, and handball. The kabaddi section sees particularly strong activity during the Pro Kabaddi League season. x89 keeps all these categories running out of respect for Bangladesh's own sporting culture.
Esports Betting — the go-to for the younger generation
X89 also covers esports tournaments across CS:GO, Dota 2, League of Legends, and FIFA. Esports isn't just for gamers anymore — it draws hundreds of millions of viewers worldwide. x89 launched this section with young Bangladeshi users in mind.
Why are x89's odds competitive?
Odds determine how much you win relative to your stake. Many platforms carry a high house margin, which means smaller returns for bettors. x89 maintains a 97%–98% Return to Player (RTP) on cricket and football, which is highly competitive in the market. Price boost offers on major matches are also available regularly, giving you better-than-usual odds on selected outcomes.
Payments & Withdrawals — Fast & Hassle-Free
One of the biggest advantages of Sports Betting at x89 is the payment system. All three of Bangladesh's most popular mobile banking services — Mobile Banking, Nagad, and Rocket — are accepted. Deposits are processed instantly, and withdrawals are typically credited to your mobile wallet within 30 minutes of winning.
Bet Responsibly
X89 always stands for responsible gaming. Sports Betting is entertainment — it shouldn't be treated as a primary source of income. Set a budget and stick to it. x89 offers a deposit limit feature to help you stay in control. If you ever feel things are getting out of hand, reach out to our support team.
