The Assam Cricket Association themed the opening ceremony in honor of Zubeen Garg.

We wanted the opening ceremony to pay tribute to this son of the soil."
He added, "Five thousand tickets were specially reserved for members of the Zubeen Garg Fan Club, while 10,000 free passes were distributed so that Zubeen's fans could be a part of this special moment."
Fans said, "Zubeena will always be our icon."
A 23-year-old hotel management student said, "Zubeena will always be with us. He is Assam's number one icon. We may not have seen Bhupen Hazarika, but Zubeen was one of us." He was very close to our hearts and was connected to us.' Even in the stadium, when Shreya Ghoshal was singing Jubin's song, the fans were looking very emotional.
