I am trying to get WANKHEDE tickets..lets see how it goes...mumbai matches tickets gets overly priced....everytime :x....
last tiem i went for IND-ENG test MATCH , indias second inngs...reached at 6.30 am to buy ticket....and was standing in 2-3 km long queue....such is craze....even after match started i couldnt get tickets.....
and suddenly saw my reporter friend..he had 3 tickets of PAVILION STAND :D....but by the time i got into stadium it was lunhc time.. :(...and after lunch time u all know what happened.... all wickets fell as pack of cards....:x

I was there...no one booed sachin that time..it was OHHH tht was written boed in papers....

But one thing is sure..a player who can feild with ful concentration in front of NORTH STAND can feild anywhere in world....most badnam stand....but its diff atmospeher altogether in pavilion and north stand.... in NORTH STAND u wil get MUMBAI masala.. ;)

BANGALORE MATCH ONLINE SELL


The several thousand tickets that were allocated for the web sale were grabbed in a record time of less then two (2) minutes! Never before has India seen such massive web transaction in such short time. The price of this overwhelming result has unfortunately been paid by those who logged-on a few seconds, minutes or hours too late; by then the event had already sold out!

Ok some photos.. It was taken on my Nikon CoolPix L12 7.1 Megapixels

Most of the snaps was taken full zoomed (both optical and digital ) so the clarity is low.

When the play was stoped and the rain started pouring heavily ... we saw a message "Cheer Up.... Bangalore" on the giant screen, moments later the Twenty20 finals (India vs Pak) was played on the screen. This was really funny... All the people started chearing whenever a player hit a boundry just like the real match. Those auzies must be thinking .. crazy people :p

And during the match when Powar was bowling full tosses and was been hit out of the park .. people started scolding him .. they were even calling him near the boundary to show their anger .. I captured a video of that, but unfortunately instead of pressing the stop button after recording I pressed the Power button .. :mad:

LOL. hey was he injured or something? coz he wasnt on the field for a long time, (after that misfield), and also didnt open batting.
BTW the indian batsmen seem to have been misinformed that they are playing a test match, and not a odi, coz first 2 overs, 1 run, 1 wicket chasing 300.:p

Also POWAR lives in the building adjacent to mine. Took his autograph once, 3 yrs back. Sadly he was not a regular odi member at that time, so i didnt properly preserve it. :)

so you location should read "Adjecent building of POWAR" instead of "The name of the place where I live is too big to fit in this place, so I am not mentioning it !!!" :))

^^ LOL its nice to recall what we experience once in a lifetime :p .. err.. this was my second match :p.. last time I saw the match.. I didnt know there was something called as internet :p

ok some more of my experience

We just had a single point check for tickets where the ticket was check under Ultraviolet light, barcode scanned and punched..

But the security checks .. 5 :mad:.. in the last check I was double checked cause I had something bulky in my pocket :p ... later they realised it was just a camera and allowed me to pass through :D

Most popular guys were Dhoni, Yuvraj and Sachin :D too bad Sachin was on the opposite side of our place :(

And most unpopular.. motu... AKA powar ..

somewhere in between the overs I saw dravid doing some strange march dance :p .. yea you read it correct "dance" .. it was just for about 15 -20 seconds .. but it was really funny :p

I think it was after sreesanth too hodge's wicket.. after some time I saw a boy with severely deformed legs, was franticly walking with all 4 limbs on the ground ... I was a bit taken aback after seeing him .. I wondered where he was going so fast, in fact I thought that why the ground staff had allowed him to roam accross the boundary :confused: .. later he apporached sreesanth who was standing at fine leg and jumped and gave him a Hi-Five ... it was like that boy and sreesanth knew eachother for a very long time.. Later I realised that boy sitting just bellow our stand .. he walked half of the ground to congratulate sreesanth for the wicket he just took. This was really heart touching moment for me in the match..

When sachin completed the catch of hopes .. you must have listened to the noise ... we were all screaming like hell :D

Aha that boy is teams lucky mascot...every ground he enters with team....in india...he is there for every match.....teams players sponsors his tickets....he is also soemtime present when teams practises...so that is y every team player knows him.....

P.S=> he is usually with players sitting outside boundary or near the sight screen....seen him in many matches....

rains can only help draw a match, some miracle (+common sense) needed for a win. In any case it will be fun to watch how the old autorickshaw (three wheels = the big 3) of the indian team performs.:-|

Well no other way than sitting with a rada crowd then. the ticket sale is more a lottery. well where did you get this info from? btw do u know exact date and time?
