The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has announced free entry for spectators for the remaining days of the first Test match between Pakistan and Bangladesh at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. This decision was made to encourage families and students to attend the match and support their favorite teams. The match is part of the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25, and both teams are eager to perform well and strengthen their position on the points table.
The free entry policy applies to the VIP enclosures (Imran Khan and Javed Miandad) for families only and premium enclosures (Miran Baksh, Shoaib Akhtar, Sohail Tanvir, and Yasir Arafat). However, it does not apply to tickets purchased for the PCB Gallery or Platinum Box. The PCB has also decided to refund the money in full to those who bought tickets over the last two days. Online ticket buyers will automatically receive a full refund to their credit or debit cards.
The ongoing Test series is crucial for both teams, and the PCB’s decision to offer free entry is expected to boost attendance and create a lively atmosphere at the stadium. The match has already seen some exciting moments, with Bangladesh trailing Pakistan by 132 runs at the end of the third day’s play. With two days left, both teams will be looking to give their best and secure a win.
