In a related context, the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) had decided to exclusively sell tickets online for the 1st IND vs ENG Test. This proactive measure aimed to curb black-market sales, ensuring a fair and transparent ticketing process for cricket enthusiasts.
The decision came in response to a regrettable incident during the ODI World Cup 2023, where tickets were illegally sold on the black market, causing concern within the cricket community.
