How to Book Tickets for IPL Matches in South Africa
To buy your IPL tickets online, go to computicket.com (a popular ticket booking site of South Africa) and type IPL in the event Search box. You’ll then be presented with a detailed schedule of all the T20 cricket matches – select the venue and date for which want to buy or reserve tickets.
You’ll need a Java enabled web browser because on the next screen, Computicket website will show you a rough layout of the stadium where you need to pick an area (like Grass, Stand, Suite, etc.). Now enter the number of tickets you want to buy and make the payment using your credit card.
You can either use your International Visa or Mastercard to buy tickets for the Indian Premier League matches via Computicket. Once your booking is confirmed, you can collect a physical copy of your match ticket from any of the Computicket outlets – they’ll ask for your credit card and an identity proof (passport should do).
Some cricket stadiums may also have ticket collection facilities but you have to confirm this with the Computicket store or email them at info@computicket.com. Please remember that you must present the same credit card used to make the online booking as well as your identification document at the Computicket outlet or theatre box office.
Ticket Prices for IPL Cricket Matches

Tickets for the opening and final games are available at R 100 and R 200 while the tickets for semi finals will cost you around R140 or Indian Rs 770. The two semi-finals have been scheduled for May 22nd and 23rd at Pretoria and Johannesburg respectively, with the Grand Final schedule for May 24th at Johannesburg.
