Cricket enthusiasts worldwide are engaged in a digital scramble as tickets for the ICC T20 Men’s World Cup 2026 semi-finals and final officially launched. High demand has already resulted in certain seating categories being completely sold out, with fans queuing online from 7:00 PM IST to secure their passes. The highly anticipated semi-finals are scheduled for March 4th and 5th, culminating in the grand final on March 8th, as the tournament’s Super Eight stage determines the final four contenders.
Ticket pricing reflects the premium nature of the events, with final match tickets at Ahmedabad’s colossal Narendra Modi Stadium ranging from ₹2,000 to a staggering ₹60,000, contingent on seating category, and are reportedly ‘filling fast.’ A unique ‘floating venue’ system, as outlined by the ICC, adds a layer of strategic intrigue to ticket sales. The location of the first semi-final on March 4th hinges directly on team qualifications, particularly concerning Pakistan. Should Pakistan qualify, the match will be held at Colombo’s R. Premadasa Stadium in Sri Lanka, where tickets start at LKR 1,500. If not, the fixture shifts to Kolkata’s Eden Gardens, with prices between ₹900 and ₹3,000. Tickets for the second semi-final at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium on March 5th are listed as ‘coming soon,’ starting at ₹3,000.
This dynamic venue policy extends to the final. In a significant stipulation, if Pakistan advances to the championship match, it will be hosted in Colombo; otherwise, the final will remain in Ahmedabad. The ICC has assured full refunds for any tickets purchased for a venue that ultimately does not host its designated match due to these conditional changes.
The tournament’s competitive landscape is intensifying. In Group 1, West Indies and South Africa are leading the Super Eight points table following substantial victories over Zimbabwe and India, respectively. Group 2 sees England at the top after their win against Sri Lanka, while New Zealand and Pakistan shared points after their fixture was interrupted by rain.
