The Assam Cricket Association (ACA) announced on Monday that tickets for India’s third men’s T20I against New Zealand, which will be played at the ACA Stadium on January 25, will go on sale on Thursday.
“Tickets will be available only through BookMyShow (BMS) beginning at 4:00 PM. Upon successful booking, viewers will receive a M-ticket, allowing for a simple and hassle-free access into the stadium,” stated ACA CEO Pritam Mahanta.
He also stated that ticket costs have been kept low to ensure that as many cricket fans as possible may attend the match. While student tickets are priced at Rs 500, other groups’ stands start at Rs 1,000.
“The Assam Cricket Association extends a warm invitation to cricket lovers to be part of this highly anticipated international match, as Guwahati once again takes centre stage on the global cricketing map, promising an atmosphere filled with passion, pride, and world-class cricketing action,” added Mahanta.
In 2025, the ACA Stadium was one of the venues for the Women’s ODI World Cup and hosted its first-ever Test via the India-South Africa clash, which the Temba Bavuma-led Proteas won by 408 runs.
The game at Guwahati is one of five Twenty20 Internationals India will play against New Zealand as part of their final preparations for the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup. The premier tournament will be place in India and Sri Lanka from February 7 to March 8.
The India-New Zealand T20I series will begin on January 21 in Nagpur, with Raipur, Visakhapatnam, and Thiruvananthapuram serving as additional venues beside Guwahati.
India will be captained by Suryakumar Yadav, and will also have the likes of Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma, Axar Patel, Hardik Pandya, Shivam Dube, Washington Sundar, Rinku Singh, Jasprit Bumrah and Varun Chakaravarthy among others in the squad.
New Zealand, meanwhile, will be led by Mitchell Santner, with the likes of Devon Conway, Jacob Duffy, Matt Henry, Kyle Jamieson, Daryl Mitchell, James Neesham, Glenn Phillips, Rachin Ravindra, Tim Robinson, Ish Sodhi among others touring India for the T20I series.
