NEW DELHI: As the highly anticipated World Cup group stage clash between arch-rivals India and Pakistan draws near, cricket fever has gripped the city of Ahmedabad. The excitement is palpable, with even the city's hospitals experiencing a surge in patients seeking check-ups and accommodations near the match venue.
Several hospitals have reported a sudden influx of patients booking check-up packages that include an overnight stay, conveniently coinciding with the World Cup's most awaited match. This innovative approach to securing affordable accommodations has emerged due to the soaring hotel prices, which have skyrocketed up to 20 times their usual rates in anticipation of the game.
