Ticket sales for the highly anticipated India vs Pakistan group-stage clash at the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 have been put on hold by the International Cricket Council. The marquee match, scheduled for February 15 at Colombo’s R. Premadasa Stadium, is currently unavailable on the official ICC ticket portal, even as tickets for other fixtures continue to be sold.
IND vs PAK Ticket Sales Suspended
The delay comes amid uncertainty over Pakistan’s participation following boycott threats linked to geopolitical tensions. While reports suggest the Pakistan government has hinted at skipping the event, the Pakistan Cricket Board has not issued formal communication to the ICC.
ICC Waiting for PCB Clarity
ICC officials are cautious about opening sales to avoid logistical and financial losses if the match is cancelled. Talks between ICC and PCB representatives are ongoing, with Sri Lanka Cricket also urging Pakistan to reconsider, warning of economic and tourism losses. India-Pakistan matches remain among cricket’s biggest revenue generators worldwide.
