News India Live, Digital Desk: Cricket News: The cricket match between India and Pakistan means the Housefull Stadium, a fierce thrill and a fierce thrills. But this time something is happening in the Asia Cup 2025, which has surprised everyone. The tickets of this great -tail to be held on September 14 in Dubai are not yet completely sold. On the one hand, where the passion of this match speaks to the fans, on the other hand, vacant seats have become a cause of concern for the organizers.

After all, what happened that people are still ready to do anything to get a glimpse of the match, their tickets are still available in the market? Come, let’s understand the real reasons behind it.

1. Price of tickets on the sky

This time the prices of tickets are so high that it is almost impossible for a common cricket fan to buy them. The cheapest ticket is also about Rs 10,000 for two people, while talking about VIP suites, the price of two tickets is more than Rs 2.5 lakh. Catagary tickets like pavilion, platinum and sky box are also being sold for thousands of rupees. Obviously, buying such expensive tickets is not a matter of everyone.

2. Not a ticket, compulsion to buy full ‘package’

This time the organizers have implemented a new rule, which the fans do not like at all. You cannot only buy an India-Pakistan match ticket. Instead, you have to buy a full package of 7 matches. The organizers had taken this step to promote matches of teams like UAE and Oman, but this decision seems to be upside down. Fans say that they want to watch only one match, not the entire seven matches. There is a lot of resentment about this ‘bundle system’ on social media too.

3. Shortage of big players

Any match is thrilled with his big players. This time the Asia Cup is happening in the T20 format, and veteran players like Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma from the Indian team have retired from T20. At the same time, the Pakistani team also does not include big names like Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan. The non-presence of these star players has also reduced the enthusiasm of the match, because many fans come to see these players.

4. Hot weather and political stress of Dubai

Dubai has a lot of heat in the month of September, which can make the experience of watching a long match in the evening. Apart from this, political tension between the two countries is also believed to be a reason after the terrorist attack some time ago. Some Indian fans are also talking about the boycott of this match, which has also affected the sale of tickets.

However, it is expected that by coming close to the date of the match, the sales of tickets may have gained momentum, but it is clear that this time some decisions of the organizers have made the fun of the biggest match of cricket a bit gritty.
