FIERCE RIVALS INDIA and Pakistan are currently squaring off in Mohali for a place in the Cricket World Cup final against Sri Lanka.
But outside one Punjabi fan has held a vigil for the past week in a bid to snag a ticket to the eagerly-anticipated showdown.
Sanjay Kumar Sen was prepared to sell his kidney for a ticket and spent several days outside the ground in which Ireland beat England. He held a handmade sign that read: “Get my kidney, give me ticket.”

He told an Indian television reporter : “No one comes to the counter.
“It has been three days and I still haven’t got a ticket. Someone came from the counter and said to take a ticket on the black market for 20,000 to 25,000 rupees.
“Take my kidney, I want a ticket to the match.”
It’s currently unknown if Sen managed to get his hands on a ticket. Let’s hope he’s watching it somewhere with all his organs.
