Cricket holds a special place in the hearts of the people of Odisha, where the passion for the sport is nearly worshipped. Fans flock to the stadium in large numbers, eager to witness their favourite Indian cricketers live in action. The excitement surrounding the India vs England ODI match on February 9, 2025, was palpable, as cricket enthusiasts spent hours on the internet to book their tickets online for the match.
The online ticket sales opened at 4:00 PM on the District.in website. However, the process wasn’t smooth for everyone. Around 50,000 people rushed to secure their seats, with only 4,000 tickets available. While some lucky fans successfully booked their tickets, many were left disappointed and went home empty-handed, struggling with long wait times and technical issues on the website.
As of now, the only tickets still available online are for the New Pavilion first floor, priced at Rs 10,000. But don’t lose hope just yet, as there is still a chance to grab your seat. Offline ticket sales will begin on February 5 and 6, starting at 9:00 AM at the designated counters. This gives fans another opportunity to secure their place at the stadium for the highly anticipated match.
In addition,Barabati Stadium will set up a fan park for the first time, enhancing the match-day experience. This park will provide entertainment and amenities for spectators, ensuring a lively atmosphere during the India vs England clash.
As for the match itself, the use of black soil from Kalahandi for the pitch is expected to favour the batters, promising a high-scoring game and adding to the excitement surrounding this blockbuster encounter.
With the sale offline tickets around the corner, there’s still hope for fans who missed out on the online sale. Keep an eye on the dates, and get ready for an unforgettable cricket experience.
