Cricket is not just a sport in Pakistan — it's a shared national experience. Whether it's a PSL franchise match being played in Lahore on a Friday night or a tense T20 between Pakistan and India on a neutral ground, the entire country tunes in. At 288com, cricket gets more betting market depth than any other sport on the platform, and it shows.
The Pakistan Super League (PSL) is the crown jewel of the cricket calendar for most Pakistani bettors. 288com covers every PSL fixture from the group stage right through to the final, with markets opening days in advance for pre-match betting and updating ball by ball once the game starts. You can bet on the overall match winner, who wins the toss, first over run totals, top batsman and top bowler for each innings, method of dismissal for the next wicket, and total boundaries hit in a given period.
For international cricket, the platform covers bilateral series where Pakistan is playing, plus neutral-venue T20 competitions, Asia Cup fixtures and ICC events including the T20 World Cup. Five-day Test matches also have dedicated markets — match result, series winner, top run scorer and first innings lead are all available when Tests are in progress.
Live in-play betting on cricket at 288com is where things get genuinely interesting. Odds shift after every delivery based on the match situation — a wicket in the powerplay changes the whole picture, and the 288com in-play engine picks that up in real time. You can be watching the PSL on your TV and have the app open at the same time, placing in-play bets as the match unfolds ball by ball.
Pre-match betting is great, but there's something different about placing a bet when you can already see how the match is going. In-play betting on 288com puts you right in the middle of the action.
Odds on 288com update continuously during live matches. A wicket, a six, a red card — the market reacts within seconds so you always see current pricing.
Live scoreboards and match stats are available alongside the betting markets, so you don't need to switch between tabs to stay informed.
You can enter a bet at the toss, at the start of a powerplay, between innings or in the final over run chase. Markets stay open throughout the match wherever possible.
The 288com in-play interface is fully optimised for phones. Bet slips are easy to fill in on a touchscreen even when odds are moving fast.

Cricket will always be number one for most Pakistani bettors, but the 288com sports section has grown to serve a wider audience. Football has a huge following in Pakistan — particularly the English Premier League, UEFA Champions League and La Liga — and 288com covers all three with full pre-match and in-play markets available for most fixtures.
For football, the standard markets like match result (1X2), both teams to score, total goals over/under and correct score are all available. For bigger matches — Champions League knockouts, El Clasico, Manchester derbies — the market selection expands to include first goalscorer, half-time result, and several player-specific prop markets. Accumulators (multi-match parlays) are supported too, which is popular for weekend football when multiple European games are running simultaneously.
Esports betting has grown quickly on 288com, reflecting just how large the gaming community is in Pakistan. PUBG is by far the most-followed esports title locally, and 288com covers major PUBG tournament matches when they're on the schedule. CS2, Dota 2 and Valorant round out the esports lineup, with map winner, tournament outright and match winner markets available for most tier-1 events.
If you're into basketball, the platform covers NBA regular season and playoff games. Tennis Grand Slams and Masters events also get market coverage — match winner, set betting and total games markets are the standard options. Volleyball and Kabaddi markets appear during major tournaments. The overall depth of sports content on 288com means you can always find something worth betting on regardless of what's in season.
Getting from zero to your first bet takes about five minutes. Here's the full process.
Register on 288com with your phone number and a secure password. The process takes under two minutes and your account is ready to use straight away.
Add funds using JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast, bank transfer or card. All deposits are in PKR with no conversion fees. Funds arrive almost instantly.
Head to the Sports section and pick your event — cricket, PSL, football or esports. Browse the available markets and tap the odds you want to add to your bet slip.
Enter your stake in PKR on the bet slip, review the potential payout and confirm. Winnings are credited to your account balance and can be withdrawn at any time.
Sports betting is entertainment. That sounds obvious, but it's easy to lose sight of it when a big PSL match is on and the odds are moving fast. 288com takes a practical approach to responsible gaming — not preachy, just straightforward about what it means to bet within your means.
The platform is for adults aged 18 and above only. Before you place your first bet, it's worth deciding on a budget for the week or the month — an amount you're comfortable losing if things don't go your way. Treat it the same way you'd think about a cinema ticket or a restaurant night out: entertainment with a set budget, not an investment strategy.
No outcome on any sporting event is guaranteed, and no bet is a "sure thing" regardless of how one-sided the odds look. Strong favourites get beaten all the time in cricket and football. Chasing losses — placing bigger bets to try to recover what you've already lost — is one of the most common traps in sports betting and one worth actively avoiding.
288com allows you to set account-level deposit limits if you want a structured way to stay within budget. If you ever feel your betting is getting out of hand, stepping back and taking a break is always the right call. Sports markets will still be there when you come back. The Responsible Gaming section on the platform has further guidance and self-management tools available for all members.
Payments work both ways just as smoothly. Deposit in PKR via JazzCash or Easypaisa and withdraw your winnings the same way. Most withdrawal requests process within a few hours. For first withdrawals, a quick identity check is required — standard practice that keeps your funds protected.
