After the Asia Cup 2022, India and Pakistan are scheduled to face each other in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2022, slated to be held in Australia from October 16 to November 13.

For the marquee clash, standing room tickets were released on Thursday (August 25). The iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) will host the highly-anticipated India versus Pakistan match on October 23.

The general tickets for this game were sold out within five minutes of going on sale in February this year.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) confirmed that more than 4000 standing room tickets will be available for 30 Australian dollars and sold on a first come first served basis.

“The ticket release ensures that as many fans as possible can attend the fixture scheduled to be played on Sunday 23 October. A limited number of packages also remain available for purchase via the ICC Hospitality and ICC Travel & Tours programmes,” said the ICC.

The organisers will also launch a re-sale platform closer to the tournament’s opening fixture.

“Fans who miss out on tickets can still book their place to see the world’s best cricketers at other T20 World Cup matches, with kids tickets starting from just $5 and adult tickets from $20,” the ICC said.

“Tickets are also still available to the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup Final, also being played at the MCG on 13 November.”
