The defending champions, Australia are all set to host the eighth edition of the marquee event, the T20 World Cup. Fans are eager to witness the carnival in person but the tickets for some major matches are already sold out.
Along with the opening fixture of the Super 12 between Australia and New Zealand, the India versus Pakistan game at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on October 23 also got sold out in less than ten minutes. International Cricket Council (ICC) in an official statement confirmed selling 6,00,000 tickets and the number is expected to increase with each passing day.
“An official T20 World Cup re-sale platform has been launched (at t20worldcup.com), providing a safe and secure way for fans to buy and sell tickets at face value and ensure as many tickets as possible are used,” said ICC.
“The T20 World Cup is one of the biggest sporting events in the world and we’re delighted that we’re set to see big crowds for both the opening match of the event in Geelong this Sunday and the first weekend of the Super 12 stage in a week`s time. It’s going to be fantastic to see full stadiums for cricket in October and a great way for fans to celebrate the first ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in Australia,” the governing council added.
