India vs Pakistan 2024 T20 World Cup match ticket prices
The marquee India vs Pakistan clash in the ICC Men's 2024 T20 World Cup will be held at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Sunday, June 9. The much-hyped Group A will begin at 8:00 PM IST [10:30 AM local time].
India and Pakistan have experienced contrasting fortunes in the T20 World Cup so far. The Men in Blue registered a thumping eight-wicket win over Ireland in their first match of the competition in New York. On the other hand, Pakistan were stunned by the United States in a Super Over finish in Dallas.
There is plenty of excitement in the air as India and Pakistan prepare to resume their rivalry. If we talk about ticket prices for the blockbuster clash, as per information obtained from the tournament's official website, the costliest ticket currently available is priced at $10,000 (Diamond Club), while the cheapest ticket can be bought for $1,500 (Boundary Club).
The other ticket rates for the India vs Pakistan 2024 T20 World Cup match are as follows - $3,000 (Cabanas), $2,750 (Corner Clubs), and $2,500 (Premium Club Lounge -North). General admission tickets were available for $300, but those are said to have been sold out long back, according to reports.
India and Pakistan will meet for the eighth time in the Men's T20 World Cup on Sunday. The Men in Blue have a dominant record over their arch-rivals in the ICC event, winning five matches and losing only one. One match in the 2007 T20 World Cup ended in a tie, which India ended up winning via a bowl-out.
Will sky-rocketing ticket prices affect crowd presence at the India vs Pakistan 2024 T20 World Cup match?
Under normal circumstances, any India vs Pakistan clash, even if it's not a World Cup game, is expected to be sold out much before the match date. However, that is not the case this time due to the exorbitant ticket prices for the 2024 T20 World Cup. Fans' enthusiasm for tickets seems to have been crippled due to the high costs.
A few days back, the ICC released additional tickets for some of the T20 World Cup matches, including the India-Pakistan encounter. However, it is being stated that general admission tickets for the match were sold out by the same evening and only the expensive tickets were available.
Crowd presence at the ongoing ICC Men’s T20 World Cup has been a major dampener, with most games being played in front of sparse crowds. Even the India-Ireland game did not draw a full house.
