From five-day Test matches to the fast-paced thrill of Twenty20 — cricket is a game of pure strategy that offers the richest betting markets in sport. At Raja99, we provide full coverage for IPL, ICC World Cup, Test Championship, and dozens of other international series throughout the year.
Many people may be surprised to learn that cricket actually has a long history in Malaysia. The sport was introduced by British administrators in the 19th century and has since taken root in certain communities across the country. Malaysia's own cricket team competes in international tournaments under the Cricket Association of Malaysia (MCA) and is active in the ICC World Cricket League.
But honestly, the main reason Malaysian fans follow cricket today is the IPL — the Indian Premier League. With IPL matches streamed live on various platforms, millions of viewers across Southeast Asia, including Malaysia, are glued to their phones every night from March through May each year. Star players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and MS Dhoni have large and loyal followings here in Malaysia.
Raja99 understands that passion. Our cricket betting platform is built for Malaysian fans who already know the game inside out — fans who can tell the difference between a DRS review and the Snickometer, who understand what "death overs" means and why pitch conditions matter in Test cricket. That knowledge can be a real edge when you bet at Raja99.

Among all sports available for betting, cricket — especially in T20 and ODI formats — offers a significantly higher number of markets compared to other sports. In a single T20 match lasting roughly three hours, there are over 150 different markets to choose from at Raja99. That far exceeds sports like football, which typically offer between 40 and 80 markets per match.
This breadth of markets stems from cricket's very nature — every ball is its own event, every over has its own narrative, and a single session can swing the momentum of a match entirely. That means bettors who truly understand cricket will always have an edge over those placing bets at random.
Raja99 takes cricket coverage seriously. Our markets go beyond match results — we also offer micro markets such as runs scored in a specific over, whether the next over will produce a wicket, who will be the top run scorer, and much more. For Malaysian cricket fans who follow the game closely, this is an opportunity to put their knowledge to real use.
No cricket tournament captures Malaysian fans' attention quite like the Indian Premier League. Every year from March through May, names like Mumbai Indians, Chennai Super Kings, Royal Challengers Bangalore, and Kolkata Knight Riders dominate sports conversations at kopitiams, offices, and WhatsApp groups all across the country.
At Raja99, our IPL coverage is among the most comprehensive available. For every IPL match, we offer markets ranging from the overall match result and per-over markets to individual player markets — who will be Man of the Match, who will hit the first fifty, which bowler takes the first wicket — right through to in-the-moment live betting markets as the game plays out. If you follow the IPL, Raja99 is the platform that completes the experience.

In Raja99's cricket live betting, scorecards like this update in real time. You can bet on the total runs scored in the last 2.4 overs, whether a wicket will fall on the next ball, or how many runs Rohit Sharma will make before his innings ends.
Cricket can look complicated at first glance, but once you grasp the basics, it becomes remarkably intuitive. For betting purposes at Raja99, here are the key concepts you need to understand.
Pitch conditions have a major influence on match outcomes. A dry, cracked pitch favours spin bowlers, while a green, damp surface suits pace bowlers. Overcast conditions also help swing bowling. Understanding this can help you choose more precise markets on Raja99 — for example, backing a spin bowler to take more wickets in the final days of a Test.
Head-to-head records between two teams can offer useful context, but the last 5 matches are far more relevant. Teams in good form — win streaks, consistently high scores — tend to keep performing well. Before placing a bet at Raja99, check each team's recent record in the same format and conditions.
The absence of a key player can shift the odds dramatically. If Virat Kohli is ruled out of an IPL match, the odds for India or his team can change significantly. Always check official squad confirmations before the match starts before placing your bet at Raja99.
In live betting, understanding the current run rate and required run rate is key. If a team needs 12 runs per over to win but is only scoring 6 — their odds will drop sharply. Use that momentum to find value in Raja99's live markets.
One thing Raja99 has discovered when speaking with Malaysian cricket fans — they are far from casual viewers. Most follow IPL player statistics closely, they can debate Bumrah's bowling economy rate against Shami's, and they know exactly why a pitch at Eden Gardens plays differently from one at Wankhede Stadium. That level of knowledge is an extremely valuable asset in cricket betting.
The Raja99 platform is built to respect and make use of that knowledge. Our interface displays real-time match statistics — current run rate, wickets remaining, partnership runs, last 5 overs runs, and more — so you can make informed betting decisions rather than going on gut feel alone. That's the difference between knowledge-based betting and blind guessing.
For cricket fans in Malaysia, especially those based in Sabah and Sarawak, accessibility is one of Raja99's biggest advantages. International cricket matches often kick off late at night or early in the morning Malaysian time — an ICC T20 match from West Indies might start at 6 AM. With Raja99's fully optimised mobile platform, you can follow the action and place live bets straight from your phone without any issues. Deposits are simple: use DuitNow, Touch 'n Go eWallet, GrabPay, FPX via Maybank2u or CIMB Clicks, Boost, or ShopeePay — all transacted in MYR.
From a responsible gambling standpoint, Raja99 also recognises that IPL season can be all-consuming. With matches nearly every day for two months, the temptation to bet on every game runs high. Our platform provides daily and weekly betting limit tools, as well as the option to set mandatory breaks — all accessible from your account settings. We want you to enjoy cricket on Raja99 in a way that's sustainable and fun.

Raja99 cricket bettors share their experience
"I've been a cricket fan since I was young — IPL, Test, all of it. When I found Raja99, I was blown away by the depth of markets on offer. It's not just match winner — you can bet on top batsman, total sixes, even the score each over. My knowledge of the players really paid off. Last IPL season I walked away with a net profit of RM 8,400 in two months."
"My husband was the one who got me into cricket — I had absolutely no clue about it at first. But now I know more than he does! What I love about Raja99 is how responsive the live betting is for cricket. When a wicket falls and the odds shift in an instant, I can jump in fast. Depositing with GrabPay is easy and incredibly quick."

The odds for Test cricket are competitive as well. Being based in Ipoh, everything runs smoothly. Withdrawals come through within 2 hours via DuitNow."
