Whether you're new to betting or you've been following cricket odds for years, like97 gives you clear markets, competitive prices and a smooth experience in PKR. From pre-match bets to live in-play action — everything in one place.
Betting on like97 means placing a wager — a PKR amount — on the outcome of a sporting event or match. If your prediction is correct, you receive a return based on the odds attached to that outcome. If it isn't, your stake is used. It's a structured form of entertainment that rewards research, knowledge of sport and measured thinking.
For Pakistan's millions of cricket followers, betting has always been tied closely to the sport. Following match odds, discussing predictions with friends and watching how a game develops in relation to what you expected — it adds an extra layer of engagement to every delivery and over. like97 gives you the formal platform to do that in PKR, quickly, on your mobile phone.
The key difference between informed betting and impulsive wagering comes down to understanding odds, knowing which markets suit your knowledge, and setting clear limits on how much you're willing to spend in any session. like97's betting section is structured to support that — you see the markets, the odds and the potential returns clearly before you commit anything.
Beyond cricket, like97 offers betting markets on football leagues, esports tournaments and other international sports. The same principles apply across all of them: pick your market, understand the odds, place what you're comfortable with and wait for the outcome. The platform settles bets promptly after events conclude and any returns go directly to your like97 wallet.
like97 supports a variety of bet types across its sports and event markets. Here's what you'll come across most often as a Pakistani bettor.
The most straightforward bet type. You pick one outcome from a market — such as which team wins a cricket match — and if it happens, you win based on the stated odds.
Combine multiple selections into one bet slip. All selections must win for the bet to pay out, but the odds multiply across all picks — making accumulators popular for higher potential returns on smaller stakes.
Place bets while a match is happening. Odds shift in real time based on what's occurring on the pitch — a wicket, a boundary, or a missed chance can change everything within seconds on like97.
A virtual head start or deficit applied to one side to level out an uneven matchup. Common in football and cricket — lets you back a stronger side at more interesting odds than a straight win market.
Predict whether a particular stat — runs in a T20 innings, goals in a football match, total kills in an esports game — will go over or under a stated number set by like97.
Bet on individual player performance — top batsman, top wicket-taker, most goals, or first dismissal method. These markets are especially popular during PSL and international cricket on like97.
Predict who will win an entire competition — PSL champion, World Cup winner, league title. These bets are placed early in a tournament and can stay open for weeks.
Predict the first specific event within a match — first wicket, first boundary, first goal, first blood in an esports title. Short-outcome markets that settle quickly within a game.
Odds tell you two things: how likely an outcome is considered to be, and how much you'd receive if it happens. like97 uses decimal odds — here's what that means in practice.
Decimal odds show the total amount you receive per PKR 1 staked, including your original stake. The number is simple to read — multiply it by your stake to see your full return if the bet wins.
Odds below 2.00 suggest an outcome considered more likely — lower risk but lower return. Odds above 2.00 mean the outcome is less certain, but a correct prediction brings back proportionally more.
During in-play betting on like97, odds update ball by ball or minute by minute. An event in the match — a wicket, a penalty, a team fight in esports — can flip odds dramatically within seconds.
Pakistan's betting community has specific needs that not every online platform is built to serve. Payment options are a major one — many international platforms don't support JazzCash, Easypaisa or Raast, which are the payment tools most Pakistani users actually have set up on their phones. like97 has built its deposit and withdrawal system around these methods, so there's no friction between wanting to bet and being able to do it.
Cricket knowledge is another area where like97 gives Pakistani users a real advantage. When you understand the game deeply — player form, pitch conditions, PSL team composition, head-to-head patterns — the betting markets on like97 have genuine meaning. You're not just clicking a random outcome; you're applying real knowledge to structured market options. That combination of sport passion and a well-designed platform is at the core of what like97 offers.
The mobile experience matters enormously in Pakistan, where a large proportion of users access the internet exclusively through their phones. like97's betting interface loads cleanly on both mid-range Android handsets and iPhones, performs well on mobile data connections, and keeps the layout simple enough that placing a bet during a match doesn't require navigating through layers of menus. You open the app, find your market and place your bet in under a minute.
Bet settlement on like97 is automatic and prompt. Once a match result is confirmed, winning bets are calculated and credited to your wallet without requiring any manual claim process. You can leave like97 after placing your bets, go about your day, watch the match on TV, and come back to find your wallet updated. That simplicity is something Pakistani users consistently appreciate.
like97 also runs regular promotions tied to major betting events — particularly during PSL season and international cricket series. These aren't promises of profit; they're value additions that give active bettors more to work with. Check the Promotions section for the latest offers and always read the terms attached to each one before opting in.

Betting is entertainment. like97 believes in making that entertainment accessible and enjoyable — which means being honest about how to approach it well. The following points are things every bettor on like97 should keep in mind.
Decide in advance how much PKR you're comfortable spending on betting. Treat it like any entertainment expense — once that budget is used, stop. Never use money set aside for essentials.
Live betting in particular can absorb hours without you realising. Set a session time limit — a phone alarm works well — and close like97 when it goes off regardless of where things stand.
A losing session is frustrating, but increasing your stakes to recover what's gone is the fastest way for a bad session to become a significantly worse one. Step away, reset and come back with a clear head.
Betting on like97 is strictly for users aged 18 and above. This is non-negotiable. If you feel your betting habits are becoming difficult to manage, please take a break and speak to someone you trust.
These are the questions that come up most often from new and returning bettors using like97 in Pakistan.
