Supporters were disappointed about not getting the tickets for the retiring batsman's farewell Test against the West Indies, at the counters of the stadium.
The Mumbai Cricket Association on Sunday had decided to sell 5000 odd tickets online to the general public.
Unaware of the move, hundreds of supporters started queueing up from early morning, hoping to get the ticket.
However, police force present at the stadium soon disbursed the crowd.
Around 3,000 tickets were made available for sale, excluding the 1,500 special tickets priced at Rs 10,000. The price category for the online sale was -- Rs 500, Rs 1,000 and Rs 2,500.
The Wankhede has the capacity to seat 32,000 people.
