hi
Iwanna take my dad to the ist test match in nagpur. Don't mean to sound dumb but can i buy tickets there on the day or do i have to get them in advance. All the british sites offer expensive tour packages which sound terrible

You should be OK buying the tickets there. They will be a hell of a lot cheaper, They normally go on sale a couple of days before the test match starts, outside the ground. If its a matter of sitting with the barmy army, then you may want to pay the ticket charge before u go (around £60 as compared with a couple of hundred rupees).

Plus test matches genereally dont sell out, but getting tickets for one day matches is a different question. They are really popular.

anyway hoping to go to the last day of mohali test and first couple of days of mumbai test, and i have no tickets, and wont be getting any before i get to the respective grounds. Worst case, get a black market one, still cheaper than buying from England

hi
nice one. sitting for 2 days with the barmy army was not my idea of a great time. My friends told me test cricket was not big in india, i tried to get the ODI in delhi but my visas expires b4 then and getting another one can be a nightmare. Thanks for the advice
