Cricket fans are struggling to buy tickets for the ICC Champions Trophy final in Dubai as prices on resale platforms have skyrocketed. The demand has pushed ticket prices up by more than 1,000%, making it extremely difficult for many supporters to afford them.
The most expensive Sky Box tickets, originally priced at Dh12,000, sold out within 40 minutes. On resale websites, some tickets are now listed for as much as Dh97,000, which is a shocking 714% increase. Thousands of fans are still searching for tickets online, showing how popular this final has become.
India has already secured its place in the final, and they will face either New Zealand or South Africa, depending on the result of the semi-final. The big match is scheduled for March 9 at the Dubai International Stadium, and fans are eager to see which team will lift the trophy.
Despite the high resale prices, excitement remains strong among cricket lovers. Many are hopeful that they will still be able to get a ticket at a reasonable price. However, with such high demand, the final is shaping up to be one of the most thrilling and expensive cricket matches in recent years.
