The historic pink-ball Test between India and England in Ahmedabad begins on Wednesday and fans are trying to get their hands on match tickets.
The third Test of the series will be played at the Sardar Patel Stadium - the world's largest cricket stadium with a capacity of 110,000.
The coronavirus pandemic has forced the Indian board to restrict venue capacity to 50 per cent, which translates to 55,000 fans.
That's still a lot of fans at the stadium and cricket enthusiasts lined up outside the Sardar Patel Stadium to get their match tickets on Saturday.
The stadium at Motera has 11 pitches on the main turf, four dressing rooms, indoor nets, state-of-the-art drainage system and an Olympic-size swimming pool.
Both teams will be in the city for a month as the Sardar Patel Stadium hosts the final two Tests of the series and the subsequent five-match T20 clash.

Here are a couple of Valentine’s Day food products that may or may not go the distance (but have got the internet talking anyway).
Sourdough sentiments: Marks & Spencer in the United Kingdom has introduced a slow-baked sourdough loaf dusted with flour to spell out I (heart) you, at £2 (Dh9.5). While it’s not available in the UAE, there’s nothing to stop you taking the idea and creating your own message of love, stencilled on breakfast-inbed toast.
Crisps playing cupid: Crisp company Tyrells has added a spicy addition to its range for Valentine’s Day. The brand describes the new honey and chilli flavour on Twitter as: “A tenderly bracing duo of the tantalising tingle of chilli with sweet and sticky honey. A helping hand to get your heart racing.” Again, not on sale here, but if you’re tempted you could certainly fashion your own flavour mix (spicy Cheetos and caramel popcorn, anyone?).
