Dubai, May 11 (NationPress) - The Emirates Cricket Board (ECB) has officially announced that tickets for the highly anticipated UAE-Bangladesh T20I series will be made available at budget-friendly prices, in collaboration with the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. The matches are set to take place on May 17 and May 19.
The Bangladesh team, under the leadership of wicketkeeper-batter Litton Das, is expected to arrive in Dubai next week. According to the ECB’s statement, “Tickets will be sold at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium Box Office starting today, Sunday, May 11, 2025. The stadium gates will open at 5:00 PM on both match days.”
General stand tickets are priced at AED 30 (roughly 697 Indian Rupees), while gold/platinum stand tickets will be available for AED 75 (about 1744.24 Indian Rupees). Meanwhile, VIP box tickets are set at AED 200 (approximately 4651.30 Indian Rupees).
Recently, Bangladesh players, including leg-spinner Rishad Hossain and pacer Nahid Rana, arrived in Dubai on Friday, following the indefinite postponement of the 2025 Pakistan Super League (PSL) due to rising tensions between India and Pakistan. Both players returned to Dhaka on Friday evening and will rejoin the Bangladesh squad for their trip to the UAE next week.
After the T20I series against the UAE, Bangladesh is scheduled to travel to Pakistan on May 21 for a series of five T20Is in Lahore and Faisalabad from May 25 to June 3. However, escalating tensions along the India-Pakistan border have raised doubts about the series proceeding as planned, especially with the IPL 2025 also being paused.
“In line with our commitment to international engagement and preparation, the Bangladesh National Team will tour the UAE for a two-match T20 International series against the hosts as scheduled. The series is set to kick off next week,” said the ECB.
Furthermore, the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) is actively communicating with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) regarding the Bangladesh National Team's upcoming tour of Pakistan, emphasizing that the safety and security of players and staff is their top priority.
“All decisions regarding the tour will be made with careful attention to the current situation in Pakistan, ensuring they align with the best interests of the team and Bangladesh cricket,” the BCB stated late Saturday night.
Point of View
It's crucial to highlight the significance of affordable ticket pricing in promoting international cricket. The ECB's initiative not only fosters fan engagement but also supports the growth of the sport in the region. It’s essential to prioritize the safety of players while ensuring that cricket remains accessible to fans.
