Organisers said 320,000 registered fans joined the ticket ballot. The India-Pakistan clash alone drew over 110,000 applications.

The ballot remains open until November 21. Fans can apply for matches across venues, with a lottery deciding allocations for oversubscribed games.

The 2027 edition is expected to be among the biggest sporting events of the decade. Early demand suggests record crowds.

Officials urged fans to apply only through official channels to avoid scams. Hospitality packages are also on sale.

The tournament schedule, venues and final ticketing details will be confirmed in the coming months.

The ballot system gives every applicant a fair chance at high-demand games. Successful fans will be notified after the November 21 deadline.

Hospitality and travel packages are being sold separately for overseas visitors. Fans are advised to check the official tournament website for updates.
