Despite the fact that Pakistan is of no match to India in recent Cricketing history, there is always this layer of anticipation about this India vs Pakistan games in the ICC tournaments.
This is again on display if we look at the surge in flight and hotel prices in Colombo as the game between India and Pakistan is scheduled to be held on February 15.
According to the latest media reports, the flight fares between India and Sri Lanka have surged dramatically. A one-way ticket from major Indian cities like Mumbai, Delhi, and Ahmedabad to Colombo is now priced between INR 50,000–100,000, compared to the usual INR 15,000. The fact that the prices have gone up by multiple times is an application of the same.
Along with that, Colombo’s star-class hotel room rates from February 13–16 have skyrocketed to nearly INR 100,000 per night. This is also in anticipation of the game between India and Pakistan, which is going to be the marquee game of the tournament.
On one hand, there is the demand to give less importance to this games against Pakistan and considering the border conflict and terrorism activities. But at the end of the day, Cricket fans are unable to contain the excitement as the game between India and Pakistan approaches.
