Gujaratis love cricket, so many will travel to the US to watch the T20 Men's World Cup

ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024: Along with the Lok Sabha elections in the country, the T20 World Cup is also in danger. More than 400 people from Gujarat will go to America for the T20 World Cup to be jointly hosted by America and West Indies from June 2.

Currently, the wait for visa is till 2025

In the league round of the T20 World Cup, the Indian team will play against Ireland in New York on June 5, Pakistan on June 9, the USA on June 12 and Canada in Lauderhill on June 15. Many people from Gujarat had already planned to go to the US during the summer holidays to cheer for the Indian team. In this regard, Manish Sharma of Toffee Gujarat said that the waiting period for consulate visa to go to the US is currently till 2025. This makes it almost impossible for those who want to travel to the US to watch the World Cup at the last minute.

All tickets for India-Pakistan match are sold out

Of course, people who completed other formalities including visa a few months ago are reaching America in large numbers. Especially, there is the most excitement about the India-Pakistan match. The minimum ticket for the India-Pakistan match in the World Cup is $300. But all these tickets have been sold. In the Diamond Club section of the stadium in New York, each ticket is $20,000, which is approximately Rs. 16.65 lakh. Earlier, when the 2019 World Cup was in England, a large number of cricket lovers from Gujarat had reached England.
