Malaysia's Most Trusted Cricket Betting Platform
Cricket is more than a sport — it's a passion for millions of fans worldwide, including many Malaysian players who follow every India, Australia and England match with real enthusiasm. At 888 Sports, we offer the most comprehensive cricket markets with competitive odds, real-time in-play betting, and coverage across T20, ODI and Test formats.
Odds are updated every over — pick your preferred market and place your bet while the match is live.
More Than Just Win or Lose
Cricket may not be the first sport that comes to mind for many Malaysians, but the truth is it has a deeply dedicated following here — especially among communities who closely follow India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Australia. Whenever India meets Pakistan, it's not just a cricket match; it's an event watched by hundreds of millions and talked about for days before and after.
At 888 Sports, we recognise the growing interest in cricket among Malaysian players, and we've made a serious investment in delivering comprehensive markets. It goes well beyond win or lose — we offer hundreds of market options for every T20 and ODI match, from who will score the most runs to how many wickets will fall in each session.
One of the things that sets 888 Sports apart in cricket betting is the speed of in-play odds updates. Odds shift every over, sometimes every ball — and our system is built to deliver those changes to you in near real time, so you always get the best value on every bet.

Understanding Cricket Formats
If you're new to cricket betting, the first thing to understand is that the three main formats differ not just in duration, but also in strategy, available markets, and how quickly the momentum of a match can shift.
T20 is the most beginner-friendly format — it's fast, exciting, and the result is known in about three hours. Each team has just 20 overs to post as many runs as possible, meaning every ball counts and odds can shift dramatically within minutes. At 888 Sports, T20 is the cricket format with the widest market selection, with over 150 options available for major international matches.
ODI (One Day International) gives each team 50 overs and typically takes a full day to complete. The format strikes a solid balance between the intensity of T20 and the strategic depth of Test cricket. The ICC Cricket World Cup, played in ODI format, is the biggest cricket tournament in the world, and 888 Sports provides the most comprehensive market coverage for every match throughout the tournament.
Test Match is the most traditional form of cricket and can last up to 5 days. It tests endurance, strategy and technical skill at the highest level. Betting on Test Matches requires a broader perspective and greater patience, but the potential value is also higher – odds can shift significantly from one session to the next depending on pitch conditions, weather and player performance.
Get to know each format in depth before you start betting — the better your understanding, the smarter your decisions.
The fastest and most thrilling format — 20 overs per side, result in 3 hours. Suitable for all types of players.
A full-day format — 50 overs per side. A blend of strategy and tension that makes for a more structured match.
The most traditional and technical form of cricket – up to 5 days of play. A long-form betting experience with odds that can shift dramatically.

Real experiences from Malaysian players who regularly bet on cricket at 888 Sports.
"I've been watching cricket for years but only started betting at 888 Sports about a year ago. Their IPL markets are incredibly comprehensive — it's not just who wins; you can bet on the top scorer, runs in the power play, and so much more. Won RM 580 in a single IPL night. Deposited via GrabPay, withdrew via DuitNow in 15 minutes."
"Cricket in-play betting at 888 Sports is a whole different experience compared to other platforms. The odds update fast – when I was watching the India vs Pakistan ICC match, they shifted every few balls. I used Cash Out to lock in my profits before the final over and walked away with RM 320 without waiting for the end result. The mobile platform runs smoothly too."
"Been using 888 Sports for cricket betting since the last ICC World Cup. What I love most is the stats built into the platform — head-to-head records, average scores at that ground, everything's there. It helps you make much more informed decisions. I've been consistently winning on individual player bets — top wicket-taker and that sort of thing."
