BookMyShow Crashes Amid High Demand for India-Pakistan T20 World Cup Tickets

The second phase of ticket sales for the T20 World Cup 2026 began on January 14, with tickets for the India vs Pakistan match in Colombo generating overwhelming demand. BookMyShow's platform crashed within minutes due to unprecedented traffic and concurrent purchase attempts. The match is scheduled for February 15 at R Premadasa Stadium. Fans faced transaction failures and delays, prompting BookMyShow to pause and plan to resume sales later. The fixture remains highly anticipated amid ongoing tensions between the teams.
