Pakistan's most cricket-obsessed betting platform. ya888 brings you real-time in-play markets on every PSL match, Pakistan international fixtures, and major global tournaments — all in PKR, all accessible via JazzCash and EasyPaisa from anywhere in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, or Faisalabad.
Cricket is not just a sport in Pakistan — it is woven into the fabric of daily life from the galis of Karachi to the drawing rooms of Lahore. When Pakistan takes the field, the entire country watches. ya888 was built with that reality in mind. The cricket sportsbook at ya888 is not a generic add-on borrowed from a generic template — it is a Pakistan-first product, designed around the tournaments, formats, and betting habits of Pakistani players specifically.
The PSL is the centrepiece. ya888 covers every single PSL fixture from the group stage through to the final, with pre-match odds published up to 72 hours before each game and live in-play markets opening from the first delivery. Whether Karachi Kings are chasing under lights at the National Stadium or Lahore Qalandars are defending a competitive total at Gaddafi Stadium, ya888 has the full market suite live and ready.
Beyond the PSL, ya888 covers Pakistan's full international schedule — T20Is, ODIs, and Test matches — alongside major global competitions including the ICC T20 World Cup, Champions Trophy, and bilateral series against top-ranked sides. The breadth of coverage means Pakistani bettors never have to look elsewhere, regardless of which format is on at any given moment.
From the simplest match winner to ball-by-ball in-play specials — every market ya888 offers on cricket, explained.
Pick which team wins the match outright. The most straightforward market in cricket betting and typically the one with the tightest margins at ya888. Available on every T20I, ODI, and Test match from pre-match through to the final ball.
ya888's live cricket betting refreshes market prices with every delivery. Bet on the outcome of the next ball — dot, single, boundary, wicket — as the game unfolds in real time. Fast settlement, instant odds refresh, and a bet slip that keeps pace with T20 cricket's rapid tempo.
Bet on which player will score the most runs for their side, or which bowler takes the most wickets in the match. Player props are one of the most engaged markets on ya888 during PSL season — Babar Azam and Shaheen Afridi consistently attract the highest volumes in their respective categories.
Bet whether the total runs scored in an innings, a specific over, or the entire match will be over or under a set line. ya888 offers over/under lines for every innings and for individual powerplay and death-over segments, giving experienced bettors plenty of precise entry points throughout the match.
Outright futures market on which franchise wins the PSL title. ya888 opens this market before the tournament begins and keeps it live throughout the group stage and playoffs as odds shift with form. Lahore Qalandars and Islamabad United typically start as joint favourites, but prices move fast when results surprise.
Pure 50/50 market on which captain wins the toss, alongside a growing range of specials including first over runs, first wicket method, highest partnership, and Man of the Match. ya888's specials market expands for marquee Pakistan fixtures, adding entertainment value beyond the standard pre-match set.
From Karachi to Lord's — every major tournament Pakistani cricket fans follow, covered in full on ya888.
The heartbeat of Pakistani cricket betting. ya888 covers all six franchises — Karachi Kings, Lahore Qalandars, Islamabad United, Peshawar Zalmi, Quetta Gladiators, and Multan Sultans — across every group stage, elimination, and playoff match with full live markets from ball one.
The biggest prize in T20 cricket gets the biggest market depth on ya888. Group stage matches, Super 8 fixtures, semi-finals, and the final are all covered with pre-match outrights, live in-play, and a rich specials suite that grows with each round of knockout cricket.
Every T20I, ODI, and Test match involving the Pakistan national side is covered on ya888. Home series at venues across Pakistan and away tours to England, Australia, South Africa, and beyond — all get the same full-depth market treatment regardless of format or location.
Pakistan's proud history in the Champions Trophy makes this one of the most anticipated betting events for Pakistani players. ya888 covers the full tournament bracket from group stage through the final, with outright winner markets open from tournament announcement date.
The Indian Premier League attracts significant betting interest from Pakistani fans following their favourite players. ya888 also covers the Big Bash League, SA20, The Hundred, and Caribbean Premier League, ensuring comprehensive global T20 coverage throughout the calendar year.
For the purists, ya888 covers the full five-day Test format with session-by-session markets, daily run targets, series winner outrights, and player milestone bets. The Ashes, Border-Gavaskar Trophy, and Pakistan home Test series all receive dedicated in-depth coverage.

Cricket betting in Pakistan has existed informally for generations. What ya888 has done is bring that tradition into a transparent, structured, and internationally regulated environment. The days of relying on informal bookmakers, opaque odds, and uncertain payouts are over for Pakistani players who want a credible platform. ya888 operates under international licensing, meaning every bet is logged, every payout is guaranteed, and every dispute has a resolution process.
The technological shift has been significant too. A player sitting in Faisalabad watching a PSL evening match can place a live in-play bet on the next over's runs between deliveries, using the same JazzCash wallet they use for everything else in daily life. The friction that previously defined informal betting — trust issues, cash handling, delayed payouts — is simply absent at ya888. Funds move in and out in minutes, not days.
The PSL has been transformative for cricket betting engagement in Pakistan specifically. Before the PSL, the primary betting events were Pakistan internationals and global ICC tournaments — meaningful but infrequent. The PSL created a high-frequency domestic competition with emotionally invested local fan bases in Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Peshawar, Quetta, and Multan. That frequency keeps the ya888 cricket sportsbook active for months at a stretch, not just during marquee windows.
Responsible gaming remains a genuine priority. Cricket's format variety — from a 3.5-hour T20 to a five-day Test — means betting volumes and pace can vary wildly depending on what you are watching. ya888 provides deposit limits, session reminders, and self-exclusion options to ensure the platform remains entertainment rather than a compulsion. All cricket betting content on ya888 is restricted to users aged 21 and above.
ya888 is committed to responsible gaming. Cricket betting — especially live in-play on fast-paced T20 matches — can accumulate significant stakes quickly. Always set a match-by-match budget, take breaks between sessions, and never chase losses after a bad result. You must be 21 years of age or older to bet at ya888. If gambling is affecting your wellbeing, please use ya888's self-exclusion tools or visit our Responsible Gaming page for guidance and support resources.
Live PSL odds, Pakistan international markets, JazzCash & EasyPaisa deposits — all in one ya888 account. Must be 21 or older to bet.
