Adelaide Oval One Day final tickets on sale tomorrow

The South Australian Cricket Association (SACA) today confirmed that tickets for the third One Day International final will go on sale to the public tomorrow, Wednesday December 18.

This is the first time that Adelaide has hosted a One Day final and the first time a final has been held outside of Sydney or Melbourne.

The One Day International VB Series during 2002/03 sees England and Sri Lanka play in Adelaide on January 17, and Australia and England in a day-night match on January 19.

The third final, if required, will take place on January 27 and will be day-night match.

The SACA chief executive, Mike Deare, says it is an exciting opportunity for South Australia to show how well it can stage world-class events.

"The One Day International series is an enormously popular sporting event and as a State, we have the opportunity to showcase how well we can stage events of this calibre," Mr Deare said.

"This is a fabulous opportunity, particularly in the lead-up to the World Cup Rugby 2003, to show the world that Adelaide Oval and South Australia can really shine when it comes to hosting events."

Tickets are available from Venuetix and start at $35 for adults. An outlet fee of $2 will be charged for pre-booked tickets, which will not be refunded in the event the third final is not required.
