The Madhya Pradesh Cricket Association (MPCA) has announced a special ticketing initiative for students and specially-abled spectators for the final ODI of the three-match series between India and New Zealand.
The Holkar Stadium in Indore will host the match on 18 January 2026, following the earlier ODIs in Vadodara and Rajkot.
Concession tickets for students will be available exclusively for the East Stand (Lower and II Floor).
Each student can purchase only one ticket on a first-come, first-served basis through the online booking system, with high demand anticipated.
The registration window opens at 11 AM on 31 December 2025 and remains active until MPCA fills the ticket quota or until 5 PM on 1 January 2026.
Students must complete a two-step process: first, uploading the necessary documents for verification, and second, awaiting approval by the MPCA.
Successful applicants will receive a WhatsApp message or email with a link to complete the purchase. Ticket delivery will be made via courier.
Ticket prices for students are Rs 750 for the East Stand Lower and Rs 950 for the East Stand II Floor.
Ticketing for Specially-Abled Spectators
A similar online process is in place for specially-abled spectators, with tickets allocated in the North-East Gallery and priced at Rs 300.
Applicants must provide a valid certificate of incapacity issued by a competent government authority (civil surgeon). Also, only one ticket per certificate is allowed.
Spectators requiring wheelchairs must purchase a dedicated ‘wheelchair ticket’ and arrange for the wheelchairs on match day.
General ticket prices for the final ODI range from Rs 800 to Rs 7,000, depending on the stand and pavilion level.
Additional charges, such as payment gateway fees, convenience fees, courier charges, and applicable taxes, will apply.
The MPCA has appointed ‘District by Zomato’ as the official online ticketing agency for this match.
Moreover, the three-match ODI series begins on January 11 at Kotambi Stadium, Vadodara, followed by the second match on January 14 at Niranjan Shah Stadium, Rajkot.
The final ODI on January 18 at Holkar Stadium will mark the 29th ODI hosted by MPCA and the eighth at Holkar Stadium, offering fans a memorable cricketing experience.
With dedicated concessions for students and specially-abled spectators, MPCA further aims to make the match more inclusive and accessible, encouraging wider participation and ensuring that cricket enthusiasts from all walks of life can enjoy India’s home matches.
