India Pakistan Asia Cup: Cricket matches between India and Pakistan are always interesting and special. Due to the relationship between politics and cricket between the two countries, the fans have been waiting for these matches for a long time. The India-Pakistan high-voltage match to be held on September 14 in the Asia Cup 2025 was also going to be special this time, but so far its ticket sales have been slower than expected, which is a surprising thing for everyone.
Why not selling tickets?
According to the Times of India report, this time the sales of India-Pakistan match tickets are slowing down, and a big reason behind it is said to be too much of ticket prices. It has been reported in the reports that the VIITES EAST for the India-Pakistan match on many ticketing websites can cost up to Rs 2.5 lakh for two seats. This includes facilities such as unlimited food, VIP club, lounge entry, private entrance and parking pass.
Similarly, the price of Royal Box is said to be around Rs 2.3 lakh, the price of the sky box is Rs 1.6 lakh and the price of the platinum ticket is about Rs 75,000. Although the cheapest tickets are available for two people for about Rs 10,000, their number is also limited.
Fans’ anger
India-Pakistan match tickets are usually sold in a few hours, but this time it is not happening. Fans say that ticket prices have been kept so much that they are finding it difficult to sit in the stadium and enjoy the match. Many fans on social media expressed displeasure over this, saying that the organizers have made the ticket rates so high that it is no longer possible for general cricket fans to watch this match.
Importance of historical match
The cricket match between India and Pakistan has historical significance, especially when both teams are not playing bilateral series. The Asia Cup and ICC tournaments for the cricket fans of both countries are the opportunities when they can see their team playing against Pakistan. This is the reason that there is always a different enthusiasm among the fans regarding this match. Although ticket prices are becoming a major obstacle, but it is expected that as the match will pass, the sales of tickets will increase. This time the Asia Cup match is definitely going to give a special experience for cricket fans, but if the same effect is on the sale of tickets, then the event can prove to be somewhat faded.
