With Team India on a roll, the demand has hit the roof, while England are in a precarious position to keep their World Cup hopes alive. On the eve of the India v England match, a World Cup ticket-selling website, showed Platinum tickets being sold for over 500 pounds each. The lowest, Bronze category tickets, were sold at 320 pounds each on the website.
"I purchased a ticket from an English fan after he had posted the availability on his social media account. I contacted him and paid 200 pounds for a 125 pounds ticket," said an Indian fan, Dhruv Patel, who was in the city a couple of days in advance to attend the ICC Fanzone at Victoria Square here. A lot of taxi drivers are also on the lookout for tickets for India's matches against England and Bangladesh here.
