ICC WTC Final: ICC to sell stadium tickets at reasonable rates for the reserve day.
ICC WTC Final: In what seems like the worst ICC event organised till now as more than two days of the test has been wasted due to the rain interruptions, the global body has finally called for the reserve day.
The ICC earlier announced that the reserve day on 23rd June will come into play to make up for any lost time due to bad weather in the ICC World Test Championship final, it looks like the reserve day will also fall short in organising the complete event.
In the meantime, it is informed that the ICC will put the tickets for the sixth day, which is the reserve day, on sale.
The entire day one and day four have been washed away by the persistent rain in the Hampshire Bowl, Southampton.

Yes, the prices of the tickets for the sixth day will be reduced. It’s a standard practice for Test matches played in the United Kingdom. Since the Test match is only open to UK residents, ICC is following the same guidelines,” an ICC source told PTI on Monday.
For the WTC final, the tickets are priced at three slabs — GBP 150 (INR 15,444), GBP 100 (INR 10,296) and GBP 75 (INR 7722).
The new rates will be GBP 100 (INR 10,296), GBP 75 (INR 7722) and GBP 50 (INR 5148).
The forecast for day five is pretty encouraging as there is no rain predicted during the playing hours with a tint of sunshine.
