Explained: What is World Cup 'golden ticket' given to Indian celebrities and who all have gotten it so far?
India TV NewsIndia is gearing up to host one of the most highly-anticipated sporting events of the year - the ICC Cricket World Cup starting October 5 in Ahmedabad and is set to run till Sunday, November 19. There is an ICC event every year, whether it's the T20 World Cup, the World Test Championship final or the Champions Trophy, which is set to be resumed in 2025. However, the charm and the excitement around the Cricket World Cup is something else because of mainly two important reasons - one since it's played in a round-robin format, it's a World Cup in the real sense as every team plays each other at least once and second since it's a 50-over game, it tests the players' physical, mental and skill level fitness. Recently, Indian cricket great Sunil Gavaskar hailed BCCI's initiative and shared his wishlist of special individuals who should get the golden ticket.
