T20 World Cup 2024 (West Indies/USA)

[Viper.]

Hong Kong's team is literally now called Hong Kong, China officially.

No parking at the stadium

I'm very surprised with this. Good to know it's not only India-specific problem

They actually have CCA. I really wouldn't put it pas them to create a premier league. As @CerealKiller mentioned, immense potential there.

ICC needs to develop the game here, many rivalries will emerge then...

China v USA
China v Taiwan
China v Hong Kong
China v India

If people thought Pakistan and India were petty sometimes… they’re in for a world of shock when these two are prominent cricket nations…

With expected full house 34000, there will be atleast 15000 cars. Difficult to have parking for 8500-10000 cars in makeshift stadium (assuming 4 people drive together). Plus not a lot of street parking available in NYC. Samething happened at Morrisvile stadium in Cary NC where that ground would have probably 500-600 parking spots so they had everyone park their car in a nearby event banquet venue that had 1500 parking spots. They had shuttle running every 5-10 minutes.

Also since this is close to the NY City, the traffic personnels will have a nightmare managing the traffic in and around the stadium. While Nassau county will make money, they have no clue how rowdy Asian diaspora is with their typical me first attitude. This is actually better and win win for all as the shuttles would take people on a designated shuttle first route without hitting traffic.

One of my friend who lives in Nassau county and works for the city's IT department said the tickets will start at $150 and go as high as $3500 for VIP's. The parking will be $25 flat for a car and $180 for a bus.

A family of 4 living in New Jersey would look at spending $150 * 4 + $25 in parking plus $38 in tolls. Looking how MLB and NFL games are prices is not that bad. MLB and NFL games start at around that same price as well for 3rd floor sitting where you see players as peanuts lol!

If that is not enough they can hire UP government to bulldoze near by area.

Just put in for ballot for the ticket sale that just opened up.

$175, $300 and $400 for tickets to India Pakistan game. Rest all are priced at $60-$200. Not bad. Hoping I can secure the tickets.

 

[WubbaLubbaDubDub]

And now the website has crashed lol!

Good luck with tickets!

Most of the diehard indians fans will take about 90% of them. The BCCI does a great job facilitating through private tour providers in making sure the tickets go where they are most needed and most wanted.

Blue will hopefully outnumber green 70-30 if not 80-20.

I would not count that. There are a lot of early Pakistani settlers in New York city compared to Indians. I would say that match would be 50-50.

Ok so this is milking the cow at best and smart from West Indies cricket.

All matches in USA start at $60 per match and go all the way till $400. They have a venue bundle package for matches in Caribbean Islands where 4 match bundle for PREMIUM VIP is $312. Grass/mound ticket price for 4 matches bundle is $50!!!
