India play England in Goa for a one day test on Tuesday 4th April 2006 are tickets on sale in India yet? tickets advertised on web in UK cost £295 each, surely they will be cheaper bought in India.

If you have any contacts in Goa,ask them and see if they will buy them for you - i will text my friend Ganesh and will let you know what he says and what the costs should be.
When the Aussies were there last time, it was one of the biggest ticket scams going and more forgeries were sold than genuine.

I should imagine that it is the Fatorda Stadium

Don't do it!!!!

Tickets start at 150 - 200 rps (about £2.50) going up to 4000 - 5000 rps ( about £50 - £60) and for the higher price you will probably get to play!!

It is at Fatorda and a Goan guy told me they will go on sale 3-4 days before the match. I would assume you will be able to get them by other means before then but don't be ripped of by uk prices. I will let you know if I hear of a way of getting them there before general sale.

My husband,son & 3 friends including 2 Goans went to the Fatorda stadium in Margao to watch a football cup final between Maharastra and Goa in November there was a 40,000 crowd and the tickets cost Rs 40 (30p). How can you have been quoted £295? Does that include flight from UK?

its a great stadium... Was there on 1st of Feb this year with the lads from Marin shack for the match between Dempo and Mohan Bagan. Bit of a grudge match as the last time they played a Dempo player died after a bad tackle... :shock:

Packed out stadium and as Julie said 40 Rps for the top seat..

Poor Willow Trees!

At the risk of upsetting 95% of posters on thisn site, Cricket is a waste of a good Willow tree! And why anyone would want to pay that sort of money for a ticket is beyond me! bah Humbug! Just got back yesterday and the blu7es are reallyb kicking in. Will post a review for our accomodation - Lucia beach guest house, Candolim later when i get time!

Tickets for india v england

My Goan friend said exactly the same as sonofscouse, the tickets should be around 200rps unless you want the top seats.
