India steamrolled the UAE in their opening match of the Asia Cup 2025 with a nine wicket win with 93 balls to spare. The stage is now set for the marquee India vs Pakistan clash on Sunday, September 14.
However, with only days left for the high-octane match, the tickets are still available for sale. This is a rarity as the match sees sold out tickets within hours of opening for the bookings.
One of the biggest reasons for this could be the pricing. Some of the prices have soared tomore than Rs 2.5 lakh for just two seats, TOI reported
On the ticketing portals (viagogo and platinumlist), a pair of seats in the VIP Suites East is listed at a staggering Rs 2,57,815.
This package will include seating, unlimited food and drinks, a parking pass, VIP club/lounge access, and private entrance and restrooms.
Further, the Royal Box comes at Rs 2,30,700 for two, while the Sky Box East is priced at Rs 1,67,851. Even mid-tier categories have been priced high. Platinum at Rs 75,659, Grand Lounge at Rs 41,153, Pavilion West at Rs 28,174, while the most affordable, General East, still costs nearly Rs 10,000 for two.
Premium tickets remaining unsold for an India vs Pakistan clash is not a common sight. The Emirates Board has associated the low sales with the absence of legends like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, who retired form T20Is last year.
An official from Emirates Cricket told ANI, "We are surprised that flow of sales for India vs Pakistan is much low, till the time we sold out with lower stands only but the upper and top tear stands are still on sale, in the champions trophy for the same match we had sale on two times in a single day like we opened ticket window 2 pm and 4 pm and we were sold out that time in just less then 4 minutes, but this time craze is very dull, it might be it's because of absence of Rohit and Virat."
