Back Pakistan's national team, follow the PSL, track international T20s and explore football and esports markets – with live odds updated in real time and deposits in PKR via your everyday payment apps.
Cricket is not just a sport in Pakistan – it is genuinely part of everyday life. Whether it is a Test match at the National Stadium, a PSL clash between Lahore Qalandars and Karachi Kings, or a high-stakes T20 international being watched by the entire neighbourhood, there is always something happening that Pakistani fans care deeply about. The sports section at 1st Game has been built with exactly this context in mind.
The platform covers a wide range of markets on cricket at every level – from bilateral series and ICC tournaments to the Pakistan Super League. Pre-match odds are available well ahead of each fixture, giving you time to study the form, consider the conditions and place your bet when you are ready rather than scrambling at the last minute. During matches, in-play betting keeps things active throughout, with odds shifting in response to what is actually happening on the pitch – a wicket falling, a partnership building, a powerplay going badly for the batting side.
Beyond cricket, 1st Game covers football including major European leagues and international competitions, kabaddi, tennis, basketball and esports titles that have developed a genuine following among younger Pakistani users. The variety means you can follow your primary passion and still find something interesting to engage with during cricket's off-season or between major series.
What makes the overall experience work well for Pakistani users specifically is the payment infrastructure. Every single transaction – deposit, withdrawal, balance display, bet confirmation – is handled in PKR. You add funds via JazzCash, Easypaisa, Raast, standard bank transfer or card, and the amount appears immediately in your account ready to use across any sports market. No currency conversion, no hidden fees on the exchange rate, no surprises when you check your balance.
The mobile experience deserves specific mention because the vast majority of Pakistani sports fans follow matches on their phones. 1st Game's sports section loads cleanly in any mobile browser without requiring an app download. The interface is responsive, bet slips are easy to manage with one thumb and odds refresh without requiring a page reload. This matters during a tense last over when you want to place a bet quickly without fighting a slow-loading page.
For new users, the process of getting started is genuinely quick. Register your account, make a first deposit in PKR and you can be browsing live cricket odds within a few minutes. The sports markets are clearly organised by event, league and type so you are not hunting through cluttered menus to find what you came for. Existing players can log in and navigate directly to their preferred sport from the header menu – the whole experience is built to get out of your way and let you focus on the actual betting.
Sample odds only – actual odds vary by market and time.
From the cricket pitch to the esports arena – every major sport Pakistani fans follow
The flagship sport at 1st Game. Markets cover Test matches, ODIs and T20Is involving the Pakistan national team, plus the Pakistan Super League, domestic tournaments and major ICC events. Bet on match winners, top batters, leading wicket-takers, totals, player props and dozens of live in-play options during every session.
Football has a fast-growing following in Pakistan, particularly among younger fans who track the Premier League, La Liga, Champions League and major international tournaments. 1st Game covers pre-match and live markets including match results, goals totals, both teams to score, handicaps and more.
Competitive gaming is genuinely popular among Pakistani youth and 1st Game covers major esports tournaments across CS2, Dota 2, VALORANT and PUBG Mobile. Markets include match winners, map totals, handicaps and specific in-game outcomes on selected events.
All four Grand Slams plus ATP and WTA tour events feature in the 1st Game sports section. Bet on match winners, set totals, handicaps and live markets during play. Tennis in-play betting is especially engaging given how quickly momentum can shift between sets.
NBA coverage is the primary draw here, with markets available pre-match and in-play throughout the regular season and playoffs. International competitions including EuroLeague and FIBA tournaments are also covered with standard match and totals markets.
The 1st Game sports section extends beyond the headline categories. Kabaddi, boxing, volleyball, American football and motorsport all feature depending on the season and schedule. The full list of available sports is visible in your account after logging in.
The Pakistan Super League is comfortably the most-watched domestic cricket event in the country and it gets the full treatment at 1st Game. Every fixture in the PSL calendar has pre-match markets open well in advance, covering everything from the straightforward match winner to more specific propositions like highest opening partnership, most sixes in an innings, method of first dismissal and player-level performance markets.
During PSL matches the live betting section stays active throughout the innings. As a batting side progresses through their overs, the projected total shifts and so do the odds on everything from the final score to whether a specific over will go for more than ten runs. For cricket fans who are genuinely engaged with what is happening ball by ball, this kind of in-play betting adds a different dimension to watching the match.
PSL outrights are also available throughout the season – betting on which franchise will win the tournament, which player will finish as top run scorer, which bowler will take most wickets and other season-long markets that reward knowing the teams and conditions well.
The six PSL franchises – Karachi Kings, Lahore Qalandars, Islamabad United, Peshawar Zalmi, Multan Sultans and Quetta Gladiators – all have dedicated sections when their fixtures are live, making it easy to find current odds for your team without searching.
The process is deliberately simple and takes only a few steps from account creation to your first confirmed bet. Here is how it works from start to finish.
A quick reference for different bet types available in the sports section
| Market Type | What You Are Betting On | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Match Winner | Which team wins the match outright; in cricket this can include a draw/tie option on Test matches | Straightforward match prediction |
| Handicap Betting | A virtual head start or deficit is applied to one side; useful when there is a clear favourite and you want better odds | Lopsided matchups with better value |
| Over / Under Totals | Betting on whether a measurable total (runs scored, goals, points) will be above or below a set line | When you have a view on scoring pace |
| Player Props | Individual player performance markets – runs scored, wickets taken, strike rate, assists etc. | Fans with strong player knowledge |
| In-Play / Live | Betting during the match as it unfolds; odds shift continuously in response to what is happening | Active fans watching live |
| Outright / Ante-Post | Betting on who wins a tournament, league or award before or during the competition | Season-long engagement like PSL |
| Accumulator | Combining multiple selections into one bet; all selections must win for the bet to pay out, but odds multiply | Higher potential returns from small stakes |
1st Game runs sports-specific promotions on a rolling basis. These can include enhanced odds on featured matches – particularly major Pakistan cricket fixtures and PSL knockout stages – as well as deposit bonuses for first-time sports bettors and accumulator boosts during peak sporting weekends. The current list of active offers is always on the Promotions page, and it is worth checking before you deposit around major events.
As with any promotional offer, take the time to read the terms. Minimum odds requirements, qualifying bet amounts, wagering conditions and expiry periods all vary. The Terms and Conditions page sets out the standard rules that apply platform-wide. Understanding these before accepting an offer saves frustration and means you can make genuinely informed decisions about whether a specific promotion suits how you want to bet.
On responsible betting – the fast pace of live sports betting in particular can make it easy to place more bets than you intended across a single match or evening of cricket. Before you start a session, decide on a PKR amount you are comfortable spending and treat that as a firm limit, not a rough guide. If a bet does not go your way, chasing losses with bigger stakes rarely works out and usually makes things worse.
Keep your betting in proportion to the entertainment it provides. Following PSL with a small bet that makes each over more interesting is a very different thing from placing large bets under pressure during a losing run. If you notice that the second description sounds familiar, the Responsible Gaming page has practical self-management tools including deposit limits and self-exclusion options. Use them early rather than waiting until things are already difficult to manage.
1st Game's sports section is designed for adult entertainment. Players under 18 are not permitted to register or bet. If you share a device with younger family members, keep your account credentials private and log out after each session.
Sports promotions rotate regularly, especially around PSL fixtures and major international cricket series. See what is currently live before you deposit.
