Cricket in Malaysia – More Than Just a Sport
Many may not realise that cricket actually has a sizeable following in Malaysia, particularly within the Malaysian Indian community and among those who have studied or worked abroad. With IPL broadcasts and the growing buzz around the T20 World Cup, interest in the sport has been rising year on year. And that's where siti8 saw an opportunity to offer something different for Malaysian cricket fans.
At siti8, we go well beyond one or two betting markets for cricket. We offer over 50 market types for every major match – from straightforward options like match winner, to specialist markets such as how many runs will be scored in a given over, or whether a particular batsman will reach ten runs.
