In a move that’s got cricket fans scrambling to their devices, tickets for the T20 World Cup 2026’s knockout fixtures went on sale Tuesday at 7 PM Indian time. The semifinals on March 4 and 5, plus the final on March 8, are up for grabs—even as uncertainty looms over prime venues.
Semifinal 1’s location floats between Colombo and Kolkata based on qualifiers. Pakistan’s involvement pushes it to Premadasa Stadium; otherwise, if Sri Lanka shines in Super 8s sans an India clash or in case of a stalemate, Eden Gardens hosts. Wankhede in Mumbai is confirmed for Semifinal 2. For the final, Pakistan’s presence means Colombo; absent that, it’s Ahmedabad.
The ICC’s clever guidelines aim to sidestep potential India-Pakistan venue issues, prioritizing neutral grounds where needed. Buyers get peace of mind with full refunds if their chosen venue shifts. Initial ticket phases offer limited seats in various categories, but expect a frenzy as Super 8s heat up.
Current groupings see India in Group A facing West Indies, South Africa, and Zimbabwe. Group B pits Pakistan against England, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka. Semis favor the top two per group, culminating in a final that could redefine rivalries.
This early bird sale is a golden opportunity for supporters to lock in premium views for what promises to be the tournament’s most thrilling chapter. Don’t miss out—official sites are live now.
