OCA working committee chairman Dhiren Pallai said: "12,690 tickets will be available from the counters." "While distribution of tickets through the OCA and the BCCI affiliated bodies will be done on December 14 and 15, tickets will be sold through Barabati Stadium counters on December 16 and 17," he said.

The OCA has insured the ground and other properties of Barabati Stadium along with spectators for the match for Rs 20 crore.

"We have inked a deal with National Insurance Company by paying the required one-time premium of Rs 13 lakh," Palai said.

Giving a break-up of the insurance components, Palai said the stadium would be insured for Rs 8 crore under standard fire and peril policy, while the spectators and visitors will be covered under public liability insurance of Rs 7 crore.

The remaining Rs 5 crore would be towards special contingency insurance policy coverage also including stadium furniture and infrastructure, he said.

"Insuring the match is primarily aimed to minimise loss in case of a washout because of inclement weather conditions or any other calamity."
