Notice for booking of Cricket World Cup Semi Finals and Final Tickets
This is to inform all prospective customers who are part of the ballot process that the prices for tickets available for the finals are INR10,000 and INR15,000 respectively. The revision downward in ticket price is the result of the 25% entertainment tax being included in the base ticket price. Initially, KyaZoonga was instructed to add the 25% entertainment tax to the base ticket price by the organizers and hence the prices of tickets stood at INR12,500 and INR18,750. However, as soon as the organizers instructed us today of the change at their end, informing us that the entertainment tax is now included in the base ticket price, the prices were changed in the ballot process. We are also happy to state that per the ballot process, not a single ticket has been sold yet and all customers who are ultimately lucky in the ballot will be charged the revised ticket price. Prices of finals tickets are the sole discretion of the organizing committee and KyaZoonga will only implement the advice that is passed on to us. We appreciate the help and pro-activeness of the organizing committee in informing us of the revised pricing as soon as they were aware of the changed situation.

Indian striker Sunil Chhetri is all set to join the national team to prepare for next year’s Asian Cup after getting the go-ahead from his Major League Soccer club Kansas City Wizards.
“The Kansas City Wizards announced that attacker Sunil Chhetri has been permitted to join the Indian National Team through the 2011 Asian Cup, in cooperation with the All India Football Federation,” the KC Wizards said in a statement.
Chhetri, who was frustrated at not being able to make his MLS debut despite spending four months with the club, said he would be glad to rejoin the national squad, which is currently training in Portugal.
“I’m excited to be joining the National Team. But I’ll miss Kansas City. Everything was falling into place here, including the big win we just had against Manchester United,” Chhetri said.
