Indian fans buying more World Cup tickets than English – despite India not qualifying
India, whose national side did not quality for the tournament, accounted for 4,509 sales - meaning English uptake fell below even that modest bar.
Almost 400,000 World Cup tickets have been sold in the latest FIFA allocation, but England fans have remained reticent buyers.
The latest sales window opened on March 13 and saw a total of 394,433 tickets purchased.
Hosts Russia accounted for the vast majority of that number, with 216,134 going to home supporters, with the North and South America the next best market.
