Anticipation among expat fans

The announcement has already triggered excitement among Indian and Pakistan fans across the UAE and other parts of the world. For many, securing a ticket is about more than just a match — it is about being part of an experience that blends sport, identity, and a grand occasion.

Pakistan, Afghanistan and UAE have already begun their preparations with the tri-series in Sharjah starting on Friday, while India’s squad is scheduled to assemble in Dubai on September 4.

Suryakumar Yadav will lead a 15-member Indian squad that departs directly from their respective home cities, breaking with the usual practice of gathering first in Mumbai. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) confirmed that all players will be in Dubai by the evening of September 4, with their first training session slated for September 5 at the ICC Academy.
