Pakistan will play arch-rivals India on June 26 at the National Stadium in Karachi and the PCB authorities have fixed the highest ticket price for that match at Rs 2700.

The rise in ticket prices has also been fuelled by Shoaib Malik-led team's recent tri-series win over India in Dhaka.

"Look the Indian team is always a salable side in international cricket and it is no surprise everyone wants to cash in on their popularity and standing," Saleem Qazi, the senior marketing executive of a leading group said.

PCB has kept the price of tickets for other matches lower than the India vs Pakistan match. So, now, let us see how many people come for India vs Pakistan match.
