    Default Indian Premier League: Is n't the Indian Premier League matches ticket pricing too high?

    Looking at the pricing of the Indian Premier League matches ticket, I feel it is over priced. The cost of a single 20-20 match ticket is almost twice that of a single day test match ticket. What do you people think about it? Do you think that people will go to the stadium to watch the matches?

    NOTE:
    In the poll, you can select multiple options.

    most people going to the matches ...

    either got the ticket for free.
    or they are way too mad for cricket to care about the price of the tickets.

    regular people like us do not go to stadiums to watch matches. it can be a life threatening experience. and you are unlikely to get clean water or loos.

    Indian Premier League tickets for chennai are priced a little high..
    But as expected, gven the hype about the tournament i guess most people would not mind the 200 INR minimum amount..
    I guess for a cricket fanatic like me , i would not mind watching one match for 200 bucks..
    Ticket prices in chennai (minimum):
    Test match: 50 Rs daily
    One day Match: 400 Rs Daily
    T20: 200 Rs daily..

    Given the pricing of 400Rs for a one day match i guess people would not mind the 200Rs price tag

    indians dont pay for cricket directly.

    advertisers pay for cricket. and you pay for it when you buy reebok/adidas/nike shoes for Rs. 6000.
