BCCI Secretary Jay Shah on Thursday said that e-tickets will not be available for the upcoming 2023 World Cup matches. He further informed physical tickets would be available for sale 1 week before the match date, High-capacity venues like Ahmedabad and Lucknow are expected to face difficulties in managing e-tickets, leading to the decision for physical tickets.
Jay Shah Said:
“We can’t use e-tickets this time around but will ensure to have physical tickets redemption at 7-8 centers well in advance. But physical ticket needs to be retained”.
“It will get difficult to manage e-ticket at high-capacity venue like Ahmedabad and Lucknow. Our plan is to start using e-tickets more in bilaterals first and then take it to multi-nation events like the World Cup,”
“We had a word with the state associations today on the tickets. 90% of the associations came with the manifests and 1-2 didn’t have it ready. We have given them time till Monday to sort it out. The ICC and BCCI will then jointly announce ticket pricing and everything. Ticketing partner is also almost sorted”.
