Kabaddi
This traditional full body team game is big in the betting industry in Asia, but outside of the continent not many have even heard of it. This means that not many of the gambling sites outside of Asia will offer betting on games, so you need to find a casino wit a sportsbook that is aiming at the local market.
Cricket
Cricket is more spread than for example Kabaddi that you almost only find in India. That means that there are more betting sites that offer betting at cricket, not just those that are specialized in the Indian market. So here it is sometimes a good idea to look at a broader range of sites to find the best odds. Just make sure that they accept bets from India before placing them.
