Tickets and hospitality packages for the eagerly anticipated T20 World Cup match between India and Pakistan are sold out.
Digital Desk: The ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2022, which begins on October 16 in Australia, is the first major cricketing event following the relaxation of international travel restrictions. Tickets for the India-Pakistan match at Melbourne Cricket Ground on October 23 (the day before Diwali) are already sold out, according to Tourism Australia.
So far, India has had the highest demand for ticket sales for the matches, with the final scheduled on November 13.
Ash Chawla of Global Sports Travel, an Australian-Indian sporting experiences company with global sales rights for ICC "hospitality packages", said, "Based on our sales data thus far, we have sold 40% of our packages in India, 27% in North America, 18% in Australia, 15% in the United Kingdom, and the rest of the world." "General Admission tickets sold out in minutes, with only a few VIP hospitality experiences left."
Hotel rooms in Melbourne have already sold out. The India-Pakistan match is expected to draw 45-50,000 spectators in Melbourne.
Gainwell Sports MD Manoj Saraf stated, "Hospitality tickets for India vs Pakistan were in high demand and sold out two months ago." They (ICC) have just launched a new product called Boundary Club, with only 300 tickets available for the India-Pakistan match, which will also be sold out this week.
The next high-demand game is India vs South Africa in Perth. Most of the sales have been to Indians travelling to Australia, but we have also sold to NRIs from Africa, the United Kingdom, and Australia. Overall, hospitality inventory is quickly filling up and should be sold out for all India games by August.
The ICC Men's T20 World Cups were originally scheduled to be held in Australia from October 18 to November 15, 2020. Tourism Australia expected lakhs of Indian visitors for the mega-events. But then Covid struck, and global travel came to a halt. It now wants to complete what was planned for 2020 in 2022.
Nishant Kashikar, Tourism Australia country manager (India and Gulf), said Australia and India share a strong bond due to their mutual love of cricket. To make this one of the world's largest sporting events, various offerings and packages are being introduced for Indian visitors in collaboration with the ICC's official ticketing and hospitality agents.
