Stingy 5000 Tickets For Public; 200th Test Of Sachin Tendulkar - Sold Out

So this is the dilemma that the crores of Sachin fans are facing. For his final test, where the god plays his final cricket, there are only stingy 5000 tickets to be availed for public, the rest of thousands have gone complimentary! This is the unfairest decision by the Mumbai board.

Also we did see the site break with the rush of 19 million people on to the site, the traffic was too much to handle. And what is surprising in this is that, with this traffic in the only source for the public to purchase tickets was closed!

The tickets were available through www.Kyazoonga.com but the site had almost immediately crashed with the surge of millions and millions of Sachin fans. The site is still slow as we speak right now, the tickets are priced at Rs500, Rs1,000 and Rs2,500.

The website is still getting high count of hits but the reports are coming in that the tickets are already sold out in midst of the slow response. The site kyazoonga.com is the official partner for the India-West Indies test cricket matches. With Sachin's 200th test, the website company have already have made an impression over the crowd.

MCA had earlier issued a statement that the online ticket sales for Tendulkar's 200th Test in Mumbai would start from Monday. Around 3,000 tickets will be available for sale, excluding the 1,500 special tickets priced at Rs 10,000. The price category for the online sale is -- Rs 500, Rs 1,000 and Rs 2,500. The Wankhede has the capacity to seat 32,000 people.

But we strongly convey our dislike to MCA for providing so limited count of tickets when it was well aware that Sachin fans will rush in like anything.

The final test is scheduled to start on November 14th.
