For making this possible NXP Semiconductors, Smartag and TRAZE RFID were involved. NXP is already credited with developing RFID based ticketing solution for the FIFA World Cup, 2006. Now the VIP guests coming to the stadium to watch the games would be able to experience the hands free RFID ticketing solution. All the guests would need to do is simply walk in through the gates of the stadium holding their tickets and this time they would be spared of the inconvenience of getting their tickets checked manually. These tickets have been equipped with an ICODE transponder IC and a unique ticket number and fully comply with the ISO 15693 standard.
This solution is expected to change the face of the world cricket and you never know if this solution gets implemented in World Cup Cricket 2007 too.

Hey does anyone know if this trial was actually carried out and any further info about who was the body conducting the pilot. I heard about various companies touting their involvement in an electronic ticketing initiative with the CCI for the ICC trophy but no mentions were there in the media or anything else.
