From PSL group stages to T20 World Cup finals, ar998 covers every ball with live odds, in-play markets and fast PKR payouts. Football, esports and more — all in one sportsbook built around Pakistan.
Pakistan's Sportsbook
Cricket is not just a sport in Pakistan — it is part of how people mark time, measure weeks and connect with each other. ar998 gets that. The sports section was built with cricket at the centre, and every design decision comes back to making it as easy as possible for Pakistan fans to follow the game they love and back it with real money.
When PSL is running, the ar998 sportsbook is where Pakistan fans gather. Every match from the group stage through the qualifier rounds and into the final has its own dedicated page with pre-match odds, live in-play markets and a full set of prop bets. You can wager on match winner, total sixes, first wicket method, top runscorer and dozens more lines — all in one place.
International cricket coverage on ar998 is just as comprehensive. Pakistan bilateral series, ICC tournaments, T20 leagues from around the region — the sportsbook keeps pace with the international calendar so there is always a meaningful cricket market live, no matter the time of year.
Beyond cricket, ar998 covers football with depth and esports with growing market selection. For football fans in Pakistan, the Premier League, Champions League, La Liga and internationals are all covered. Esports markets include CS2, DOTA 2, Valorant and League of Legends across major tournaments.
All PSL fixtures from opening match to the trophy ceremony, with pre-match and in-play markets. Odds update ball by ball so you can react to what is happening on the pitch in real time.
Jump into markets mid-match. Watch the game shift momentum and back your read of the situation with in-play bets that settle the moment an over ends or a wicket falls.
Winnings are settled and credited to your ar998 wallet the moment a market resolves. Withdraw to JazzCash, Easypaisa or your bank account — usually same day.
Sports Lobby
Cricket leads the lineup, but the ar998 sportsbook goes well beyond. Here is what is available across the full sports lobby.
PSL, T20 internationals, Test series, One-Day Internationals, Asia Cup, ICC World Cup and regional T20 leagues. The most comprehensive cricket sportsbook for Pakistan users.
Premier League, Champions League, La Liga, Bundesliga, international friendlies and FIFA tournaments. Pre-match and live markets with Asian handicap and over/under options.
CS2, DOTA 2, Valorant, League of Legends and mobile titles across Tier 1 tournaments. One of the fastest-growing sections on ar998, with live in-play markets for major events.
Grand Slam events, ATP and WTA tour matches, Davis Cup and Fed Cup ties. Set-by-set in-play markets keep the action going throughout long matches.
NBA regular season, playoffs and Finals, plus EuroLeague and international competitions. Quarter-by-quarter live markets alongside standard match betting.
Table tennis, volleyball, snooker, boxing and combat sports fill out the ar998 sports calendar so there is always something to back even in cricket's off-season periods.

PSL Focus
No other domestic cricket league generates the kind of nationwide engagement in Pakistan that PSL does. When Karachi Kings face Lahore Qalandars or Peshawar Zalmi go up against Islamabad United, practically the whole country is watching. ar998 channels that energy into a live betting experience that keeps pace with every moment of the match.
Pre-match markets open well in advance of PSL fixtures, giving you time to review team news, pitch reports and form before committing. Once the match starts, in-play markets refresh constantly — top batter per innings, runs in the next over, wicket in the next ball, method of next dismissal and more.
Outright PSL markets — tournament winner, top run scorer of the season, most wickets — are available from the start of the competition so you can back long-term views across the whole campaign.
All PSL bets are placed and settled in PKR. JazzCash and Easypaisa make deposits quick and effortless so you can top up during the drinks break and be back in action before the next over starts.
Getting Started
Never bet online before? No stress — the ar998 sports section is designed to be clear and straightforward from your very first visit. Here is how it works.
Start with pre-match bets before moving into in-play. Pre-match gives you time to think through your selections without the pressure of changing odds mid-action.
Create your free ar998 account at the Register page. It takes about two minutes. Once your account is active, log in and you are ready to explore the sportsbook.
Go to the deposit section and fund your wallet via JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast or bank transfer. Deposits clear instantly on most methods — no waiting around to get into the action.
Navigate to Sports from the ar998 menu. Choose your sport — Cricket is front and centre — then select a match. You will see all available markets listed with current odds.
Tap the odds you want to back. The selection moves to your betslip. You can add multiple selections for accumulator bets or keep it single. Enter your stake in PKR and confirm.
Follow the match. If your bet wins, the returns land in your ar998 wallet the moment the market settles. From there, withdraw to your preferred payment method whenever you like.
The ar998 sports section works perfectly on smartphones. Download the Android or iOS app from the Download page or use the mobile browser — either way the experience is clean, fast and touch-friendly. Place bets during a match without fumbling around small buttons or slow-loading pages.
The Full Experience
Most Pakistan cricket fans watch games on their phones — either streaming on mobile data or following ball-by-ball commentary while they are out and about. ar998 was built for exactly this scenario. The sportsbook interface is responsive, quick to load on 4G and designed so the most important information — live score, current odds, your active bets — is visible without scrolling through clutter.
In-play betting on cricket is particularly well done on ar998. When a new batter walks in, odds on total runs shift. When a spinner comes on to bowl in the powerplay, the runs-per-over lines adjust. The platform reflects the natural rhythm of a cricket match rather than just updating at the end of each over, which means sharp bettors who are watching closely can find value in the gaps.
Football live betting follows a similar philosophy. Goals, red cards, corner counts — every meaningful event in the match changes the odds and opens new short-term markets. You can back "next team to score" or "total corners in the next 10 minutes" and have the bet settle quickly so you are always free to reinvest.
Esports has grown significantly on ar998 over the past year. The platform now covers CS2 and DOTA 2 at the major tournament level with map-by-map markets so you can bet on individual map outcomes rather than just the series result. This gives esports fans a level of granularity that feels right for a game where momentum swings dramatically between maps.
Withdrawals from sports winnings follow the same fast, PKR-based process as every other ar998 product. Visit the Withdrawal page for full details on processing times and available payment methods. Your winnings are yours — getting them out should never be complicated.
Platform Strengths
ar998 keeps margins tight on cricket and PSL markets, giving you closer to fair value on the bets that matter most to Pakistan fans.
Live cricket odds refresh delivery by delivery during PSL and international matches so the numbers on your screen reflect what is actually happening in the middle.
Combine selections across multiple matches and sports into one accumulator bet. Build a cricket-football multi and track all your selections from a single betslip.
Full bet history is stored in your ar998 account — open, settled and voided bets all in one place. Review your record any time to see what is working and where you can improve.
Play Responsibly
Sports betting is most enjoyable when you treat it as entertainment rather than a source of income. ar998 encourages every user to set a clear weekly or monthly budget before placing any bets and to stick to it regardless of results. Chasing losses rarely works out well — if a session goes wrong, the best move is to close the app and come back another day with a fresh perspective.
ar998 provides deposit limits, session reminders and self-exclusion options in your account settings. These tools are there to support you in staying in control — use them freely. The platform is for adults aged 18 and over only, and identity verification is part of the account process to enforce this.
