Cricket Markets
The most straightforward market – simply pick the winning team. In T20 and ODI formats there are only two outcomes (no draw), while Test Matches offer three options including a draw.
Bet on who will score the most runs in an innings or across the entire match. A popular market when star batsmen like Virat Kohli or Babar Azam are in top form.
Predict whether the total runs in the first innings or the entire match will go over or under the line set by menu888.
Who will take the most wickets? This market gets really interesting when a dangerous pace bowler like Jasprit Bumrah or Shaheen Afridi is in top form.
How the first wicket falls – caught, bowled, LBW, run out, or another method. This market offers higher odds and suits bettors who enjoy analysing game strategy.
Bet on the total runs scored in the first 6 overs (Powerplay). A hugely popular in-play market for T20 matches, as the Powerplay often sets the tone for the entire game in a very short space of time.

Cricket may not be the most mainstream sport in Malaysia compared to football or badminton, but the country's cricket fan base is far larger than most people realise. Particularly among the Malaysian Indian community and those who grew up watching cricket broadcasts from the subcontinent – IPL, India vs Pakistan, and the Ashes rank among the most-watched sporting events in the world, and Malaysia is no exception. menu888 recognises this reality and has built a truly comprehensive cricket section to meet the needs of local fans.
What sets menu888 apart from other cricket betting platforms is the depth of markets on offer. It's not just about picking a winner – you can drill down into specifics like how many runs will be scored in a particular over, or how the first wicket will fall in an innings. For players who truly understand cricket, this level of depth turns in-depth knowledge into real, tangible returns.
The Indian Premier League is the most popular T20 cricket league on the planet – and that popularity extends well beyond India, with fans across Malaysia tuning in every season. With world-class stars like Virat Kohli, MS Dhoni, Rohit Sharma, and Jos Buttler competing in different franchise jerseys, every IPL match is high-quality, drama-filled entertainment.
Menu888 offers exceptionally in-depth IPL coverage. Beyond standard markets like match winner, you can bet on who wins the toss, how many runs will be scored in the Powerplay, who will be the first to hit a fifty, whether there will be a wicket in the first 2 overs, and much more. For serious IPL fans, this means there's a betting opportunity roughly every 5 minutes throughout the match – every over brings a fresh angle you can capitalise on with your cricket knowledge.
If there's one cricket match that can bring everything to a standstill in Malaysia – especially in areas with a large Indian Malaysian community – it's India vs Pakistan. This rivalry goes far beyond sport; it's a cultural event that demands everyone pick a side. At menu888, India vs Pakistan matches receive special attention with deeper markets and highly competitive odds.
History has shown that matches like these often deliver the biggest surprises – Malaysian cricket fans still vividly remember the last-over drama at the T20 World Cup and those Super 8 clashes. High-stakes fixtures like these are the perfect time to make the most of in-play betting on menu888, as odds can shift dramatically with every over.
In-play betting for cricket at menu888 is a completely different experience from placing a bet before the match starts. When you're watching an IPL match and can see that a bowler is struggling – spraying it wide, with the batter in full flow – you can bet on a higher run total for the next over before that bowler even begins their spell. Once the first ball of the over is bowled, the odds will shift based on the outcome.
Among the most popular in-play markets at menu888 for cricket are: runs in the next over (over/under), whether a wicket will fall in the next over, total fours or sixes in the next over, and runs scored in the final 5 overs. All of these update in real time and are accessible directly from your phone while you watch the match.
Test Match cricket may sound slow to those used to T20, but for the true cricket fan, it represents the highest form of the game in terms of strategy and skill. A match lasting up to 5 days across 4 innings gives strategies time to unfold, pitches time to change, and weather conditions time to play their part.
Menu888 offers an exceptionally comprehensive range of Test Match markets, including match winner, draw option, innings run totals, top scorer per innings, individual bowler wicket counts, and much more. The Ashes series between England and Australia is the most anticipated Test series every season, drawing cricket bettors from around the world – including right here in Malaysia.
Menu888 knows that IPL matches typically kick off late at night in Malaysia – anywhere between 9:30 PM and 11:30 PM local time depending on the season. That means you may need to make a last-minute deposit right before the match starts. That's why the menu888 deposit system is built to process transactions in as little as 30 seconds to 2 minutes.
Available deposit methods cover all major options in Malaysia: Touch 'n Go eWallet, DuitNow, GrabPay, Boost, ShopeePay and online banking via FPX (Maybank2u, CIMB Clicks). None of this requires you to leave the couch or turn off the match broadcast – it can all be done in under two minutes from your phone.
Unlike casino games that rely entirely on luck, cricket betting gives a genuine edge to those who follow the sport closely. Knowing that a Mumbai pitch tends to produce higher scores at night than in the afternoon, or that a particular player has a poor record against pace bowling on green pitches – this kind of insight is invaluable when placing a bet.
Menu888 provides in-platform player statistics and performance records to help you make more informed decisions. Before betting on the top batsman in an IPL match, check that player's recent form at the venue, how they've fared against the opposition's bowling attack, and whether they're in peak form or returning from injury. With menu888, you're not just going on instinct – you're making strategic calls backed by data.
One important tip for newcomers to cricket betting: start with the simplest markets like match winner before venturing into more complex ones such as method of dismissal or runs per over. Get a feel for how different formats affect game strategy, and remember that weather and pitch conditions can swing a match in ways you'd never expect – especially in Test Matches in England, where rain is always a factor.
In T20s, teams that win the toss and choose to bowl first tend to win more often on grounds with heavy dew in the evening. This factor is frequently overlooked in pre-match odds – use that knowledge to your advantage at menu888.
