As per the PTI report, PCB has set the lowest ticket price for the General Enclosure at 1000 PKR for all matches in Karachi, Lahore and Rawalpindi. But the ticket prices for the Pakistan vs Bangladesh match in Rawalpindi have been increased to 2000 PKR (INR 620) and for the semi-final to 2,500 PKR (INR 776).

The PCB has also revealed VVIP tickets for all the matches at 12,000 PKR (INR 3726) but for the semi-finals, it is increased to 25,000 (INR 7764). The premium enclosure tickets are priced at PKR 3,500 (INR 1086) for the matches in Karachi, 5000 (INR 1550) for the matches in Lahore and 7000 (INR 2170) in Rawalpindi.

The PCB also plans to keep VIP enclosure prices to PKR 7000 for Karachi, 7,500 for Lahore and 12,500 for the Bangladesh match. 18,000 tickets will be up for sale for the general spectators but it is still unclear how many tickets one person can purchase at a time and whether tickets will be available on counters or only online.

The Dubai International Stadium will host India’s matches and as per ICC event rules, the host country sells match tickets and also keeps the earnings from gate money and the revenue from the sale of hospitality boxes. An insider confirmed to PTI that the PCB believes that it is entitled to keep the gate money and hospitality box sales for the matches in Dubai. The venue will also host the mega-clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan on February 23.

“The ECB will obviously advise the ICC and PCB on the ticket rates for different enclosures in Dubai and what prices should be charged for hospitality box sales before announcements are made,” the insider said to PTI.

 The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has fixed the minimum ticket price for ICC Champions Trophy matches at 1,000 PKR which is Rs 310 in Indian rupees.  Cricket Sports News: Latest Cricket News, Cricket Live Score, Sports Breaking News from Sports Today
