How much does box cricket cost per hour in Islamabad?

Daytime and late-night off-peak hours start near Rs 4,000. Weekday evenings from 7pm to 11pm and weekend slots run Rs 6,000 to Rs 9,000 for the whole cage. With sixteen players that is Rs 400 to Rs 600 each for a two-hour match. Umpire and scoring, where offered, adds Rs 1,000 to Rs 2,000.

How many players do you need for box cricket?

Six or eight per side is standard, so twelve to sixteen players fills a cage properly. The venue charges for the cage, not per head, so smaller groups pay the same. Two hours is the usual booking for a full match with an innings break; one hour suits practice or a short six-over game.

Where are the box cricket grounds in Islamabad?

Park Road and Kuri Road hold several arenas, with more in G-13, I-14 and I-16, across Bahria Town Phase 7 and 8, and in DHA Phase 2. Rawalpindi players usually book near Adiala Road, Chaklala or Bahria Phase 4. Give us your sector and preferred time and we will find the nearest cage with that slot free.

Is equipment provided?

Venues supply tape balls and usually a couple of bats, stumps and bibs. Serious groups bring their own bats because house bats take heavy use. Wear turf or trainer shoes; spikes are not allowed on artificial turf. Confirm whether balls are unlimited or charged per ball, since some venues cap it at four or five per booking.

Can we book a box cricket tournament?

Yes, and company tournaments are common on Saturdays. For eight to sixteen teams, venues quote a whole-day rate rather than hourly, typically Rs 40,000 to Rs 120,000 depending on cages and hours. Book three to four weeks ahead, and settle separately whether umpires, scoring, seating, sound and refreshments are included or arranged by you.

Box Cricketin Islamabad & Rawalpindi

This desk started in Islamabad, so this is where our data runs deepest. Everything below is written for Islamabad and Rawalpindi specifically — other cities are covered, in less detail.

Box cricket is the default weeknight game in Islamabad and Rawalpindi. Netted turf cages of roughly 100 by 50 feet sit along Park Road and Kuri Road, in G-13, I-14 and I-16, across Bahria Town Phase 7 and 8, in DHA Phase 2 and on the Rawalpindi side near Adiala Road and Chaklala. Off-peak hours start near Rs 4,000; weekday evenings and weekends run Rs 6,000 to Rs 9,000.

The game is tape-ball, six or eight a side, usually two hours for a proper match with a break. Venues supply the ball and often a bat, but bring your own bats if your group cares about quality. Ask whether the quoted rate includes lights and the umpire, since some venues charge Rs 1,000 to Rs 2,000 extra for an umpire and scoring, which is worth it for a company or friends tournament.

The 8pm to 11pm block on weekdays is the busiest in the city and needs booking three to five days ahead at the well-known arenas. From May to August the late slots after 10pm are the most comfortable, and some venues run through to 2am. Groups that play every week should negotiate a monthly recurring slot; ten to fifteen percent off the hourly rate is normal.
