The hottest tickets of the summer will soon be up for grabs as CA staggers the release for the Australia-India limited-overs and Test matches

Tickets for the highly anticipated Australia v India international series will go on sale next week, with Cricket Australia announcing a price freeze with limited capacities at all venues.

Public health concerns mean the five venues to host international cricket this summer – the SCG, Manuka Oval, the Adelaide Oval, MCG and the Gabba – will all have restrictions on the numbers of fans able to attend.

The limited capacities are expected to see demand for tickets rival an Ashes summer, with Australia's large ex-pat Indian population just as eager as home supporters to see their heroes in action live.

Fans are encouraged to register for the Australian Cricket Family, or ensure existing log-in details are up-to-date. ACF members will have a 24-hour head start on the general public to buy tickets.

The release of tickets will be staggered to ensure the latest possible public health directives are taken into account and the maximum number of possible tickets are put up for sale.

The first matches to go on sale will be the Dettol ODI Series and Dettol T20 INTL Series, with matches played in Sydney and Canberra on sale to ACF members from 9am AEDT November 19, and to the general public 24 hours later.

CA has kept entry level prices at $30 for adults and $10 for kids (plus booking fees) for the fifth straight summer, and all prices will be the same as India's last tour in 2018-19.

The SCG, which will host the traditional Pink Test from January 7 – the third in the Vodafone Test Series – is limited to 50 per cent of total capacity, or 23,000 fans.

With the SCG hosting two ODIs and two T20s, fans have the option of buying a two-day pass to each format

Canberra's Manuka Oval, host of the third ODI and first T20, promises to be one of the most sought-after tickets with about 6,000 seats up for grabs.

The Adelaide Oval is also restricted to 50 per cent capacity, with 27,000 tickets available for each day of the opening day-night Test, the only one India captain Virat Kohli will feature in before he returns to India for the birth of his first child.

Brisbane's Gabba venue can host up to 30,000 fans, or 75 per cent of its capacity.

At present, the Victorian Government has approved 25,000 fans for each day of the Boxing Day Test across public, member and corporate tickets. With the improving COVID19 situation in the city, it is hoped more tickets may be able to be put on sale closer to the time, but this is yet to be confirmed.

It is yet to be determined how the venues will split their available seats between members and the general public. A CA statement said that information would be released when each venue puts its tickets on sale.

CA's interim CEO Nick Hockley said he expected "unprecedented demand" for tickets.

"We have chosen to keep both entry level tickets and premium tickets at the same price as the last time the Indian men's team toured Australia, with the aim of making sure the series is as accessible and affordable as possible," Hockley said.

"State governments in each host city are providing phenomenal support and we are working closely with them to determine venue capacities and biosecurity requirements that place everyone's safety as the priority."
