The T20 World Cup 2024 is fast approaching, and the highly anticipated match between India and Pakistan on June 9 in New York promises to be a thrilling encounter. This Group A clash is expected to be one of the standout moments of the tournament, bringing back memories of their previous encounter where Virat Kohli played an unforgettable innings.
However, controversy has surrounded the build-up to this match, particularly regarding ticket pricing. Former IPL commissioner Lalit Modi has criticized the ICC for allegedly prioritizing profits over the promotion of the game in the USA. He pointed out that tickets for the marquee clash are being sold for exorbitant prices, with some sections costing as much as $20,000 per seat.
Despite this criticism, the ICC has defended its ticket pricing, stating that prices range from $300 to $10,000 for the India-Pakistan match. However, reports have indicated that resale prices for these tickets have skyrocketed. India’s World Cup schedule includes matches against Ireland, USA, and Canada following their clash with Pakistan.
The anticipation for this historic and emotional rivalry between India and Pakistan is palpable among fans around the world. Cricket fans eagerly await this highly anticipated encounter between two cricketing giants at the T20 World Cup 2024.
