BPL-2 General Discussion

[ReZ_1]

I think from today the movements for bpl 2 started to happen. Hopefully in the coming days we will see much more energy

[Equinox]

So Sylhet Royals will play both matches on Feb 12?

[captainBD]

Nevertheless, I wonder how the ticket sellers are gonna know that i am a student/airtel user?

And that means airtel is one of the sponsors/distributors? Smart way to attract customers. And how many can one person buy?

airtel users can buy tickets using sms service and students should have their id card.

the fixture with colours and so many qualifying matches is the odd one out

[captainBD]

the CI one is slightly different:

[captainBD]

if some more players flock in, fixtures finalized properly like the white plain one, then good to go!

[captainBD]

[zsayeed]

How come they allocate only one day to come back from Chittagong to Dhaka? Will that go smoothly? I wonder with the infrastructure of transportation. hmmmm.....

[AsifTheManRahman]

Aren't they flying?

[captainBD]

Yup, they can come easily by flight, not really a problem. not so sure about khulna-ctg

Ticket price for students (probably school kids )

[captainBD]

350 is a bit too much for my opinion. Had it been kept down to 250 for all then it would have been great. Not too many people are gonna purchase ticket for the neutral matches. I think it would have been great had there been a home and away format, but teams like barisal, rangpur probably wont have home grounds then.

But considering last time, this year its much cheapers. It was 500 for everyone, no discount prizes.

[Tiger Manc]

Is the Associate player rule enforced this year?

[reyme]

Poor Marketing strategy. You dont sell ticket like this! Just follow how its done for the airline tickets!

They should start out cheap, and as they were selling out fast then increase the ticket price gradually...the perfect example was recently concluded WI series and the 2011 WC. When the prices start low, peole start buying and right away because of our culture other will follow like crazy and next thing you know tickets are SOLD OUT.

And never underestimate the power of season pass! Someone smart can really make a killing out of ticket sales. We only think of short term gain, not many think about or take time how to really make money smartly.

[fuadomar]

No, not this year.

Why should there be a discount for students in International gallery..... Student discount should only be applicable for the lowest cost gallery.... Otherwise, this will turn the students into black marketeers....it's tempting to buy in 2100 and sell in 3000 or less... And it's not difficult for a student to arrange 100 Ids...or get a corrupt seller to show every sale as student concession....who will check if its all against one ID..?

It was better to keep the price cheaper at the origin...
