More than 10,000 tickets went on re-sale after India failed to make it into the finals.
With the hope India reaching the grand finale of the Cricket World Cup 2019, thousands of Indian cricket fans had brought tickets for the Lord’s match, but unfortunately, Virat Kohli and his team lost out to New Zealand in the enthralling semi-final in Manchester.
With the Men in Blue knocked out of World Cup 2019, Indian cricket fans have the only choice either watch the CWC Final between England and New Zealand to be held at Lord’s on Sunday, 14th July or skip the match and sell the tickets to the fans of finalists.
Ahead of the mega final at Lord’s, New Zealand all-rounder Jimmy Neesham on Saturday, 13th July, urged the Indian fans to only sell their final tickets via the official platform.
Taking to his official Twitter handle on Saturday, Neesham appealed: “Dear Indian cricket fans. If you don’t want to come to the final anymore then please be kind and resell your tickets via the official platform. I know it’s tempting to try to make a large profit but please give all genuine cricket fans a chance to go, not just the wealthy.”
Noteworthy, India’s hunt for the third coveted title in England ended with an 18-run defeat in the first semi-final against the Black Caps on Wednesday, 11th July, in Manchester.
