With just over 20 days until the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024, the ICC has revealed ticketing details. In an effort to boost attendance, tickets will start at just five dirhams (Rs 114.28), with free entry for fans under 18. The announcement was made in style, accompanied by a dazzling laser show on the Burj Khalifa.
Speaking at a media conference, ICC Chief Executive Geoff Allardice highlighted the diversity of the UAE, calling it a “home World Cup for all 10 teams.” He emphasized the importance of fan support and inclusivity as the tournament approaches.
Starting on October 3, the competition will see 10 teams playing 23 matches over 18 days. Group A includes Australia, India, New Zealand, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka, while Group B features Bangladesh, England, South Africa, West Indies, and Scotland.
The round-robin format will determine the top two teams from each group, who will then advance to the semi-finals on October 17 and 18, with the final set for October 20 in Dubai. Warm-up matches will take place from September 28 to October 1.
