The tickets for the final ODI of a three-match series between India and New Zealand, scheduled for January 18 at the iconic Holkar Stadium in Indore, will be sold exclusively online, the Madhya Pradesh Cricket Board has said. The series finale is set to be a special occasion for cricket fans with the MPCA rolling out dedicated ticketing initiatives for students and specially-abled spectators.

As the concluding match of India’s first men’s international cricket series of 2026, the Indore ODI carries added significance. The series opens with matches in Vadodara and Rajkot, before culminating under lights at Holkar Stadium in what will be a day-night encounter.

MPCA has earmarked specific sections and quotas to ensure wider access to the marquee contest, especially for young fans and spectators with disabilities.

Continuing its long-standing practice, the association will offer student concession tickets in the East Stand (Lower and Second Floor), subject to limited availability. Each student will be entitled to purchase one ticket only, priced at Rs 750 for the East Stand (Lower) and Rs 950 for the East Stand (Second Floor), inclusive of applicable taxes.

The process for availing these tickets has been designed in two stages. Students must first register online and upload valid documents—such as a current institutional identity card or recent academic records—through the official ticketing portal. Applications will be verified by MPCA, and successful applicants will receive a confirmation link via WhatsApp or email to complete the purchase. The registration window opens at 11 am on December 31, 2025, and will remain live until the quota is exhausted or 5 pm on January 1, 2026, whichever is earlier.

A similar mechanism has been put in place for specially-abled spectators, underlining MPCA’s emphasis on inclusivity. Tickets for this category are priced at Rs 300 and allocated in the North-East Gallery. Applicants must upload a valid government-issued disability certificate as part of the verification process. Each eligible spectator can purchase only one ticket, and those requiring wheelchairs are expected to arrange them independently on match day.

All tickets—regular, student concession, and specially-abled—will be sold exclusively online through ‘District by Zomato’, MPCA’s official ticketing partner. General ticket prices for the match range from Rs 800 to Rs 7,000 across various stands and pavilion levels, with additional payment gateway and courier charges applicable.

On the cricketing front, the Indore ODI promises high-voltage action. Senior stalwarts Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are expected to be the biggest crowd-pullers, while Shubman Gill, set to return from injury concerns, is likely to lead the ODI side. For fans, especially students and specially-abled spectators, MPCA’s targeted ticketing initiative offers a rare opportunity to witness top-tier international cricket from the stands as India wraps up the opening series of 2026 on home soil.

The squad for the upcoming ODI series will be announced in the first week of January by the BCCI. After the ODI series, India and New Zealand will meet in a five-match T20I series, which will be the final assignment for the senior national team before the T20 World Cup, starting February 7.
