LAHORE: Cricket fans faced trouble while purchasing tickets for the much-awaited event of the ICC Men’s Champions Trophy 2025 as official website went down due to high traffic.
The ticket sale for the Pakistan-hosted matches of the eight-team tournament went live at 2pm Pakistan Standard Time (PST) and drew unusual interest from the fans.
As buyers flocked to the website, it consequently resulted in the failure of its servers, causing difficulties for the fans in securing a seat for themselves to watch the matches of the mega event live at Pakistan’s newly-renovated venues.
After drawing more users than expected, the online ticketing website has started to increase the number of its servers.
The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Monday, shared the information related to the ticketing of the eight-team tournament with prices ranging from PKR 1,000 to 25,000, depending on the venues, seating category and also on matches.
Tickets will be available in multiple categories, including General Enclosure, First Class, Premium, VIP, VVIP and Gallery, ensuring that spectators can choose an option that suits their preferences.
