BCB Unveils Affordable Series Tickets

The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has announced a structured and widely accessible ticket pricing plan for the upcoming home series against New Zealand, featuring three One Day Internationals (ODIs) and three Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is). The visiting New Zealand side is scheduled to arrive in Dhaka on 13 April, marking the beginning of a full month of international cricket action across two of the country’s major venues.

To encourage strong spectator turnout, ticket prices have been set between BDT 200 and BDT 2,500, depending on seating category and stadium. Tickets officially go on sale online at 6:00 PM today through the BCB’s authorised portal (www.gobcbticket.com.bd), allowing fans to purchase seats in advance and avoid matchday congestion.

The series will be shared between Dhaka and Chattogram. In the capital, the first two ODIs and the final T20I will be held at the
Shere Bangla National Stadium. This venue will offer the highest-priced Grand Stand tickets at BDT 2,500, reflecting premium viewing access. The International Gallery has been priced at BDT 1,500, while Club House seats are available for BDT 600. For budget-conscious spectators, the Eastern Gallery remains the most affordable option at just BDT 200.

Chattogram will host the remaining ODI and the first two T20Is at the
Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium. Here, premium Grand Stand and Rooftop Gallery tickets are also set at BDT 2,500. Mid-tier seating in the Shaheed Shrabon Stand and Shaheed Abu Sayeed Stand will cost BDT 600. The Western Gallery has been priced at BDT 300, while the Eastern Gallery again provides the lowest entry point at BDT 200.

With a clear emphasis on affordability and accessibility, the BCB’s pricing strategy appears designed to maximise stadium attendance while catering to a wide range of supporters.
