India's Six-Year New Zealand Tour Sees Over 50,000 Tickets Sold
New Zealand Cricket has sold over 50,000 tickets for India's upcoming tour starting October 22, marking India's first visit in six years. The tour includes five T20Is, five ODIs, and two Test matches. High demand has led to the opening of Eden Park's sixth tier of seating for the first time since 2019. Several matches, including the second T20I in Christchurch, are nearing sell-out. NZC plans fan events and activations to enhance the experience during this highly anticipated series.
