Right after facing each other in the upcoming Asia Cup, the arch-rivals India and Pakistan will be up against each other for the high-octane clash in the T20 World Cup which is set to start from October 16 later this year. Meanwhile, the International Cricket Council released the standing room tickets on Thursday (August 25) for the India-Pakistan's T20 World Cup clash at the MCG on October 23.
The general tickets for the ‘mother of all clashes’ were sold out within five minutes of going on sale in February.
Over 4000 standing room tickets will be available for 30 Australian dollars and sold on a first come, first served basis, said the ICC.
"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 match on October 16.
"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."
The last time Indian and Pakistan faced each other was in the last edition of the T20 World Cup where the Babar Azam-led side rocked the Men in Blue by 10 wickets.
