Cricket is not just a sport in Pakistan — it is a shared national experience. From Karachi to Lahore, Islamabad to Faisalabad, match days turn streets quieter and living rooms louder. The passion that Pakistanis feel for their team, for the PSL, and for the global game is real and deep-rooted. pak98 was built to serve exactly that passion — a platform that lets you back your cricket knowledge with real PKR bets, settled quickly and transparently.
What makes pak98 stand out for cricket betting is the combination of local payment infrastructure and a genuinely broad market offering. You do not need a foreign card or an international payment gateway to participate. JazzCash, Easypaisa, HBL online banking, UBL, Meezan Bank, and Bank Alfalah all work for both deposits and withdrawals in Pakistani Rupees — meaning your winnings come back to you in the currency you use every day, through the payment apps already on your phone.
The cricket section on pak98 covers the full calendar of international and franchise cricket. PSL fixtures get particularly deep market coverage, with dozens of betting options per match reflecting the competition's massive following among Pakistani fans. International tours involving Pakistan, home and away, are fully listed well before the series begins, giving you plenty of time to research and plan your bets.
Every major cricket format is available for betting on pak98. Each format creates a different betting dynamic — here is what you can expect from each one.
The PSL is the flagship competition for Pakistani cricket fans, and pak98 treats it accordingly. Expect the deepest market selection of the season — match winner, top scorer, total sixes, player dismissal methods, and live in-play markets updated ball by ball.
T20Is are fast, unpredictable, and perfect for live betting. pak98 offers pre-match and in-play markets on all bilateral series and ICC T20 tournaments, including the T20 World Cup, with odds updated in real time through every over.
ODI cricket offers a longer betting window with more opportunities to apply research. pak98 covers all major bilateral ODI series and ICC events including the Cricket World Cup, with an extensive range of pre-match and innings-based markets.
Test cricket is the most strategic format, and it rewards patient, well-researched betting. pak98 provides multi-day markets on Test series involving Pakistan and other top nations — from series result to individual innings bets and session totals.

Pakistani players are among the most knowledgeable cricket fans in the world. These tips are designed to help you apply that knowledge more effectively when betting on pak98.
In Pakistan, pitches at National Stadium Karachi and Gaddafi Stadium Lahore behave very differently. Pitch reports published on the morning of the match — showing whether it is a batting or bowling surface — directly influence which markets offer better value on pak98.
A PSL team missing its overseas power-hitter or a Pakistan lineup resting key fast bowlers for the next Test can shift the match winner odds significantly. Check the official squad announcement, usually released a few hours before the toss, before placing your bet.
In T20 cricket played under lights or on certain Asian pitches, the team winning the toss often has a meaningful advantage — chasing is frequently favoured. Check historical chasing win rates at the venue before backing a match winner on pak98.
In T20 matches, the first six overs often set the tone for the innings. Experienced in-play bettors on pak98 wait until after the powerplay to assess run rate, wickets lost, and batting form before placing live wagers on totals or the match winner.
Spreading bets across too many different market types dilutes your edge. Most successful cricket bettors on platforms like pak98 develop expertise in two or three specific markets — top batsman, over/under runs, or total sixes — and bet selectively on those.
A Pakistan international series or a full PSL season spans weeks. Set a total budget for the tournament rather than session-by-session, which helps you pace your bankroll and avoid chasing losses after a bad round of matches.
One of the most common concerns for Pakistani bettors is finding a reliable, fast way to fund their account. pak98 solves this by supporting every mainstream Pakistani payment channel. JazzCash and Easypaisa are the most popular choices — both allow instant transfers directly from your mobile wallet with no international processing delays.
If you prefer traditional banking, HBL Internet Banking, UBL Omni, Meezan Bank, and Bank Alfalah are all accepted on pak98. Deposits typically reflect within minutes, so you will rarely miss a pre-match betting window even if you decide to fund your account close to the toss.
Withdrawals follow the same channels. After your cricket bets settle — usually within minutes of the match ending — you can request a withdrawal to your JazzCash or bank account. Most withdrawals are processed within a few hours during business days, keeping your PKR winnings accessible when you need them.
