ICC T20 World Cup 2012 - World T20 tickets start from $0.25
Tickets for this year's World Twenty20
will be as cheap as $0.25 for group games and between $2.50 and $45 for
the final. The ICC has announced the global sale of tickets for the
tournament, which will be held in Sri Lanka, from today. The tickets can
be bought online from the ICC's website. The low prices are in sync with those during the World Cup 2011, which drew large local audiences to the grounds.
Eight percent of the tickets available to the public are on sale now,
with the remaining ones becoming available on August 1 to ensure
availability closer to the event. There is a limit of six tickets that
any one person can purchase for the group stage matches, and four
tickets from Super Eights onwards. The tournament kickstarts with hosts
Sri Lanka taking on Zimbabwe on September 18.
The attractive ticket pricing for the ICC event comes after Sri Lankan as well as visiting England supporters were angered by exorbitant prices for daily tickets during the ongoing England-Sri Lanka Test series.
Attendance to the group games of the women's World Twenty20 will be free
of charge. The women's semi-finals and finals are scheduled on the same
day and ground as the men's games and the tickets for the men's games
will be valid for both.
