Team India is set to lock horns with England in the semi-final 2 of the T20 World Cup 2026. The match is scheduled to be played on March 5 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
Ahead of the match, BookMyShow shared a post on its official social media handle, announcing the sale of tickets.
"Additional tickets for the Semi Final 2 of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup go live at 6 PM today!," read the post's caption.
Several cricket fans, however, expressed disappointment over not being able to book the tickets. A few fans received a pop-up on their screens stating "You've Been Added To The Queue...".
Although a few fans complained about the website showing available tickets, but were unable to book.
Ahead of the game, management will expect Abhishek Sharma to deliver big performances against the "Three Lions". The left-handed batsman is struggling to find himself among the runs. So far, having played six matches, he has managed to score 80 runs, with a top score of 55 runs.
On the other hand, Ishan Kishan is having a decent run in the ongoing global showpiece. Donning the Indian jersey in seven games, he has accumulated 224 runs, with a top score of 77 runs. Despite a fine run, he has been dropped to the number three position in the batting lineup. Sanju Samson has moved upto the opening slot along with Abhishek.
Team India's think tank will also expect Suryakumar Yadav's deputy, Axar Patel, to score crucial runs down the order. The 32-year-old cricketer will also look to strike important wickets for the "Men in Blue" in the semi-final 2.
India: Suryakumar Yadav (C), Sanju Samson (WK), Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Ishan Kishan (WK), Rinku Singh, Mohammed Siraj, Washington Sundar, Shivam Dube, Abhishek Sharma, Varun Chakaravarthy, Arshdeep Singh, Tilak Varma.
