In an effort to curb the black marketing of tickets, the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) has made the decision to exclusively sell tickets for the first Test match between India and England (IND vs ENG) online only.

This move aims to ensure a fair and transparent distribution of tickets. The decision comes in the wake of past instances, including the black-market availability of World Cup tickets in Hyderabad, prompting the authorities to implement stricter measures for ticket sales. 

Fans with online tickets for India vs England 1st Test in Hyderabad will need to exchange their digital tickets for physical copies. The exchange process is scheduled to take place on Sunday at the Hyderabad Gymkhana.

"This is a prestigious match. All arrangements are ready. All tickets will be sold online through Paytm and not offline. Whoever has an online ticket, they have to collect printed tickets from Gymkhana on 21st," Jagan Mohan Rao, HCA President told RTV.

To honor the dedication and service of Indian soldiers, Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) has declared free tickets for all military personnel on January 26. Additionally, HCA has distributed free passes and tickets to students.

"Since January 26 is a special occasion, it is a gift from my side to invite soldiers for the game. Soldiers along with their families are welcome. We have invited a minimum of 2000-3000 members. We have given free passes. The target is especially govt schools," Jagan Mohan said.

"We are selling tickets starting from Rs 200. The highlight is that the price of the ticket for 5 days will amount to only Rs 600 (3 days fare). Two days free," he added.
