@hererofrtime Sorry, missed your message. It was all fine. I read somewhere the whole thing was all a bit made up. The stewards in the ground were all Paytm people and they were the ones selling tickets on the day. I was there for days 1 and 2 so missed the two England batting collapses !!!!

@RobbieFlying Did you get this sorted in the end Rob and if so how. Would be useful to know for the future tests!

#rajkot #indiavengland #3rdtest, #cricket #Paytm I have just received this regarding my tickets for the test match. I arrive in Rajkot on Thursday the 15th and it looks as though I won't be able to obtain my ticket!! Am I reading this incorrectly???

@N_T_9_7 @sallen0 @Dave_Edward @SteveJB01 @Muzz0 Looks like we are going to the cricket after all 😁 I am of course pleased but I did not appreciate the unnecessary stress with all of this!!

@N_T_9_7 @saucricket @BCCI @ECB_cricket Me neither - I have chased up the ECB and Paytm - lets just say that I am not feeling very loved at the moment !!!! Everyone needs to spread the word far and wide!!

@RobbieFlying @saucricket @BCCI @ECB_cricket See what they have written to me. I don't know anyone in Rajkot to give an authorization

Countdown begins for 3rd test match of #INDvsENGTest series to be played from 15th February 2024 at renowned stadium of Rajkot @BCCI @ECB_cricket

@N_T_9_7 @saucricket @BCCI @ECB_cricket Yes, and I got a repeat email from them yesterday with the same message. That's way I used the word hope rather than defiantly all sorted and I certainly haven't had anything from them to say everything is okay. The fight continues ...

@RobbieFlying @saucricket @BCCI @ECB_cricket I am surprised with this. I had written to paytm insider twice. Both the times they stated that it needed to be collected by 13 Feb. I am taking about Season tickets for 5 days

@N_T_9_7 @saucricket @BCCI @ECB_cricket Yes, and I got a repeat email from them yesterday with the same message. That's way I used the word hope rather than defiantly all sorted and I certainly haven't had anything from them to say everything is okay. The fight continues ...

@RobbieFlying @saucricket @BCCI @ECB_cricket I wrote to Paytm Insider requesting them to project this problem with organisers. They are evasive in response. They categorically responded twice that physical Tickets need to be collected latest by 13 Feb. I am surprised that you are allowed to pick up on Match days. Season tkt

@sallen0 @Paytm @TheBarmyArmy @ECB_cricket Some hope - this is from another chat that I have been involved in

@Paytm @TheBarmyArmy @ECB_cricket I’m attending the game at Rajkot however won’t be staying in the area till the 14th - any idea how I get my tickets?

@N_T_9_7 @saucricket @BCCI @ECB_cricket Some hopeful news - this is from another chat that I have been involved in ...

@N_T_9_7 @saucricket @BCCI @ECB_cricket I am in the same boat as you. It is disgraceful and despite approaching the ECB and the BCCI and generally trying to publicise this have had nothing to show for my efforts If I make any breakthroughs I will let you know

@Muzz0 @Dave_Edward @SteveJB01 @paytminsider Wow - that is great news!! I messaged Paytm earlier to so hopefully I will get the email that you got from them too

@RobbieFlying @Dave_Edward @SteveJB01 @paytminsider Paytm Insider have confirmed in an email that I can pick up my ticket on match day from all 3 locations. I hope you have the same luck.

Dear @ECB_cricket Please can you post what you have done so far to help the England cricket fans going to India for the 3rd Test that are as it stands unable to obtain their match tickets (including me)

@sallen0 @Paytm @TheBarmyArmy @ECB_cricket Thanks for posting this, I am in the same boat. I spoke to someone at the ECB on Friday, all I learned is that lots of other people have contacted them than any actual news on what is happening. It is disgraceful to expect fans to arrive 2 days before the match starts

@DGoughie #rajkot @talkSPORT @KP24 @SteveHarmison10 Hello , I am circulating this message far and wide. I would be grateful if you could do the same Thanks Rob Hopkins

@BBCSport @LBC @tntsports Hello, I am circulating the following far and wide. I would be very grateful if you can do the same. Thanks Rob Hopkins

@root66 @benstokes38 @jimmy9 @ECB_cricket @BCCI #rajkot #cricket Hello chaps, I am circulating the attached far and wide. I would be very grateful if you could do the same. Thanks Rob Hopkins

@Dave_Edward @SteveJB01 @Muzz0 @paytminsider I also have an outstanding message with paytm to see if tickets can be (in my case) picked up in Mumbai at a paytm office. Anyway, I am off to Heathrow to get pissed and fall asleep on a plane to Delhi 😀

@SteveJB01 @RobbieFlying @Muzz0 @paytminsider 🙈😂

@Dave_Edward @SteveJB01 @Muzz0 @paytminsider ...of course the BCCI are the people that can do something so who knows what the outcome will be but it was at least comforting to know that it is at a more official level
