The Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association (MPCA) is offering concessionary tickets for students and a dedicated ticketing initiative for specially-abled spectators for the final match of the three-match ODI series between India and New Zealand at the Holkar Stadium.
MPCA has confirmed that tickets for the final ODI, scheduled for January 18, will be sold exclusively online. Concession tickets for students will be available for the East Stand (Lower/II floor), with one ticket per student, on a first-come, first-served basis via the online system only, as a high volume of applications is expected.
“MPCA has engaged ‘District by Zomato’ as the official online ticketing agency. The tickets shall be available only by online mode,” the association stated in a release.
The registration window opens at 11 am on December 31, 2025, and will remain open until the ticket quota is filled or until 5.00 pm on January 1, 2026. The process to obtain concession tickets involves two stages: first, uploading the necessary documents, followed by verification and approval by MPCA.
Upon approval, applicants will receive a WhatsApp message or email with a link to purchase the ticket and make payment. After successful payment, a ticket booking confirmation will be sent, and the ticket will be delivered by courier.
The ticket rates for the student concession category are Rs 750 for the East Stand lower and Rs 950 for the East Stand (II floor).
A similar process is established for specially-abled spectators, with tickets priced at Rs 300 allocated in the North-East Gallery. “Only one ticket can be purchased by a person having a ‘duly valid’ certificate of incapacity from the competent government authority (civil surgeon). This certificate will need to be uploaded for MPCA records. Those requiring wheelchairs should purchase a ‘wheelchair ticket’. The wheelchair must be arranged by the purchaser on the match day,” MPCA specified.
General ticket prices for the match range from Rs 800 to Rs 7,000 across various stands and pavilion levels, with additional payment gateway charges, convenience fees, courier charges, and applicable taxes.
MPCA has appointed ‘District by Zomato’ as the official online ticketing agency.
The three-match ODI series begins on January 11 at the Kotambi Stadium in Vadodara, with the second match on January 14 at the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot. The final ODI on January 18 will mark the 29th ODI hosted by MPCA and the eighth at Holkar Stadium.
