But despair not, for there’s an array of options that will keep cricket enthusiasts entertained and engrossed in the excitement. Four leading multiplexes in the state capital have taken the initiative to screen the live matches in their luxurious auditoriums.

Additionally, a selection of restaurants and lounges are gearing up to broadcast the match on big screens while offering enticing deals for their patrons.

“We are committed to screening all India matches at our multiplex, and the response has been overwhelming with 87% occupancy so far. If we sell out on Sunday, we’ll consider adding more screens. We’ve also partnered with food court vendors to offer intriguing combos that will be served directly to the seats, ensuring a day-long cricket extravaganza,” reveals Yogendra Arya, General Manager of Crown Mall.

Jugal Sachdeva of Club Momentz is ready to cater to cricket enthusiasts in two distinct settings. “We’ve got a substantial projector screen by the open-air poolside and a massive LED screen at our Neoo Nightclub. To add to the excitement, we’re offering irresistible deals on drinks and discounts on food and combos,” he shares.

Lucknow’s various clubs are also joining the fray, ensuring that cricket aficionados can revel in the big-screen experience. “No need to fret if tickets are sold out! We can enjoy the match with our family and friends at our club on a grand screen,” emphasizes Rajesh Pahwa, a local businessman.
