UPCA Announces Ticket Refund Process Following Canceled T20 Match

Ticket Refund Process

The Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association (UPCA) has released a set of guidelines for ticket refunds after the T20 match between India and South Africa was called off due to heavy fog at Lucknow's Ekana International Cricket Stadium.

Refund Guidelines

Online Ticket Holders

For those who purchased tickets online, refunds will be processed digitally. Ticket holders will receive notifications shortly via their registered email addresses.

Offline Ticket Holders

According to the UPCA announcement, individuals who bought tickets offline can claim their refunds on December 20 and 21, from 11 am IST to 6 pm IST, at the box office located at Gate No. 2 of the Ekana International Cricket Stadium.

Those with offline tickets must present the original ticket along with a government-issued identification. They should also complete a refund form that includes accurate bank details to facilitate a smooth refund process. Dedicated counters for refunds will be available at the venue.

It is mandatory for offline ticket holders to be present in person and bring their original physical tickets along with a copy of their Government ID for verification. Once verified, refunds will be credited directly to the bank accounts specified in the refund form. The refund process will only commence after thorough verification of the submitted documents.

Match Canceled Due to Weather Conditions

The match in Lucknow was set to start at 7:30 pm IST on December 17, with the toss scheduled for 7:00 pm. However, after six inspections, the umpires determined that the conditions were not suitable for play, leading to the match being abandoned without any balls bowled. The last inspection occurred at 9:25 pm.

The concluding T20I match between India and South Africa is scheduled to take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on December 19.
