How I saw 2019 CWC and had a crazy experience
In 2019 I was in Europe and was on a short holiday. I had applied for ICC ballot tickets but wasn't lucky, so I gave up and was planning something else for the days.
I came across a hospitality package and it only had a VIP ticket left but I was feeling pretty spontaneous so I went ahead and booked it.
Somehow managed to get a great flight for 1400rs (yes that cheap) it was insane and I was glad to save somewhere.
I went for India vs West Indies in Manchester and also saw Old Trafford football stadium in that time and got a pic with the trophy.
The match itself was fun, the seats and experience was incredible, I had made short plans to explore London before heading back.
Tour people asked if was interested in India vs England - Cheapest tickets available for 3Lakhs ☠️ I said no thanks and went on with my plan
Next day a friend of mine who's not even in the UK realises that I'm there, he had a spare VIP ticket available for India vs England which was 3x better than my original India vs WI ticket also.
I couldn't believe my luck, I just had to make spontaneous train bookings to Birmingham and found a friend who let me stay over at their place and that's the story of how I got to see a super iconic match (Rohit 100 and this special orange jersey which was only used once)
Even managed to purchase the jersey.
This is my pata hai aaj kya hua moment
