India-New Zealand Cricket Tour Sees Over 50,000 Tickets Sold with High Demand
New Zealand Cricket has sold over 50,000 tickets for India's upcoming tour starting October 22, featuring five T20Is, five ODIs, and two Test matches. High demand, especially for T20Is, has led to the reopening of Eden Park's sixth tier seating for the first time since 2019. Several matches, including the second T20I in Christchurch, are nearing sell-out. NZC's Head of Marketing Tim Ellis highlighted growing excitement and plans for fan engagement activities during the series.
