Cricket is not just a sport in Pakistan — it is a way of life from Karachi's Defence Stadium crowds to the passionate supporters packing Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium. At 9ab, we built our cricket sportsbook specifically around what Pakistani bettors care about: razor-sharp PSL odds, ball-by-ball in-play markets, competitive match-winner prices, and instant PKR deposits that let you act the moment conditions shift.
Numbers that tell you why Pakistani bettors choose 9ab for cricket.
When a Pakistani cricket fan talks about cricket betting, they are not talking about a casual punt on a match winner. They want over/under runs after the powerplay, top wicket-taker props before a Test, live run-rate markets that shift with every delivery, and the ability to cash out if Babar Azam falls early and the game turns. That is precisely the depth of offering 9ab has built into its cricket sportsbook.
The platform covers every format Pakistan plays in — Test matches, ODIs, T20Is — plus full coverage of the Pakistan Super League from the group stage straight through to the final. Beyond Pakistan-specific cricket, 9ab's sportsbook also includes the Indian Premier League, Big Bash League, The Hundred, Caribbean Premier League, and all major ICC events including the T20 World Cup and the Champions Trophy.
What separates the 9ab cricket experience from a generic sportsbook is the quality of the in-play interface. Markets do not just update between overs — they shift ball by ball. When a wicket falls in the 15th over of a T20 chase, the next ball's odds are already live on screen. When a boundary crashes through the covers, the run-rate market reprices in seconds. This real-time responsiveness is what serious cricket bettors in Lahore and Islamabad expect, and 9ab delivers it consistently.
Deposits and withdrawals are handled entirely in PKR via JazzCash, EasyPaisa, HBL, UBL, Meezan Bank, Allied Bank, and SadaPay. There is no currency conversion friction, no hidden fees on e-wallet transactions, and no waiting for your winnings — successful withdrawals to JazzCash or EasyPaisa typically land in your account within 5 to 30 minutes of your request.

From simple match winner bets to delivery-level props — here is what you can bet on.
The foundational cricket bet — pick which team wins the match. Available across all formats with pre-match and live in-play pricing. Competitive margins on Pakistan internationals and all PSL fixtures.
Bet on which batter will score the most runs in an innings or across the full match. A favourite market among Pakistani fans who closely follow individual player form and pitch conditions.
Predict which bowler claims the most wickets in an innings or the match. Spinners on subcontinental pitches, pace bowlers in seam-friendly conditions — your knowledge of conditions can give you a genuine edge.
Set a runs total for an over, a session, or the full innings. 9ab offers over/under markets for every over during T20 matches, giving in-play bettors continuous opportunities throughout the game.
A clean 50/50 market with odds near 1.90 on each side. Popular as a low-complexity entry point for newer bettors at 9ab, or as a quick side market for experienced players wanting additional engagement.
A classic market from South Asian cricket betting tradition — predict runs scored in a defined session (e.g., morning session in a Test, first 10 overs in a T20). 9ab offers this popular format with competitive pricing.
Back a specific player to win the match award. Requires knowledge of form, role, and pitch conditions — this market rewards cricket insight more than most and carries attractive pre-match odds on most fixtures.
How many runs will be scored in the very first over? This popular prop market resolves inside two minutes of a T20 starting, making it ideal for players who want immediate action without committing to a full-match position.
Will the combined teams hit more or less than X sixes? Particularly entertaining in T20 formats where power-hitters from both sides routinely clear the ropes. A crowd-pleasing market with good liquidity on 9ab.
Whether you are betting on cricket for the first time or you have been reading scorecards since childhood, 9ab has the right market depth for you.
The PSL is the heartbeat of Pakistani T20 cricket — and 9ab covers every franchise, every fixture, every ball.

Yes — live in-play betting is one of 9ab's strongest features. During any live cricket match, the market list updates ball by ball with new odds, new markets, and evolving over/under totals. You can place bets between deliveries and on specific next-event markets (next over runs, next wicket method, etc.) throughout the game.
Absolutely — the PSL is 9ab's most covered domestic competition. Every group stage match, eliminator, qualifier, and final is available with pre-match and live in-play markets. Market depth for PSL fixtures includes match winner, top scorer, top wicket-taker, total sixes, session runs, and numerous player-specific props.
The minimum bet on 9ab cricket markets is PKR 50 — making it accessible for players at all bankroll levels. Whether you are a student from Lahore putting in a small PSL match flutter or an experienced bettor managing larger stakes, the platform accommodates both comfortably.
Settlement rules for abandoned or rain-affected matches depend on how much play has occurred. Pre-match bets are typically voided and stakes returned if insufficient overs are bowled to constitute a result under the applicable playing conditions. In-play bets placed after a defined number of overs may be settled differently. Full settlement rules are available in 9ab's Terms and Conditions page.
Winnings are credited to your 9ab wallet automatically as soon as the relevant market settles — typically within minutes of the match or market concluding. From your wallet, you can withdraw to JazzCash, EasyPaisa, or bank transfer. E-wallet withdrawals usually land in 5–30 minutes after your request is processed.
