Nagpur: Ticket distribution for the first T20 International between India and New Zealand, scheduled for January 21 at the VCA Jamtha Stadium, commenced on Tuesday for VCA life members and affiliated clubs at Bilimoria Hall, Civil Lines.
Enthusiasm among members was evident as several of them queued up at the venue late Monday night, well ahead of the scheduled 9.30 am start of ticket distribution, in a bid to secure prime seating inside the stadium. A former Vidarbha Ranji Trophy player, who was among the early arrivals, said most members were keen on front-row seats and therefore chose to arrive hours in advance.
According to the Vidarbha Cricket Association (VCA), ticket distribution for members and affiliated clubs will continue until January 15. Each life member is entitled to one complimentary ticket. Members also have the option to exchange their complimentary ticket for one of a lower denomination, if preferred. In addition, a member is permitted to purchase up to four tickets of any category.
