Cricket Australia (CA) announced on Thursday that public tickets for the India-Australia ODI match in Sydney and the T20I game in Canberra this November have sold out four months ahead of time.

In addition to the record-breaking Ashes ticket sales, CA noted significant interest from the Indian diaspora in purchasing tickets for the white-ball series in Australia in October-November.

Such has been the demand that 90,000 tickets for eight matches, including the highly popular T20Is in Melbourne and Brisbane, were sold out just two weeks after the sales window opened.

“Exhausting our public ticket allocation for the SCG ODI and Manuka Oval T20I four months prior to the series is a testament to the tremendous interest for the upcoming season amongst cricket fans."

“We are thrilled to see continued strong engagement amongst Indian diaspora off the back of a record-breaking Border Gavaskar series last summer. The forecast strong turnout of Australian and Indian fans means we’ll again have a fantastic atmosphere at each match.

“There is extreme interest in what promises to be our biggest ever summer of cricket, so we encourage fans to buy early to avoid missing out on the action," said Joel Morrison, Executive General Manager Events & Operations, Cricket Australia, in a statement.

CA also mentioned that more than 16 percent of the tickets sold so far have been purchased by Indian fan clubs. The Bharat Army, one of the most active fan clubs, has purchased over 2,400 tickets. Fans based in India have also shown considerable enthusiasm, buying over 1,400 tickets.

Moreover, Amit Goyal from Brissy Baniyas, an Aggarwal community in Australia, has acquired 880 tickets for the Gabba T20I, making him the highest individual buyer for a single match. Meanwhile, the Indian Community of Gold Coast and Pakka Local have bought over 500 tickets for the Gold Coast and MCG T20Is, respectively.
