COVID-19 restrictions mean the venue will operate at half of its usual capacity for the one-day international on December 2, and the ensuing Twenty20 clash on December 4.
Five of the six matches one-day and Twenty20 series between the Australian and Indian men's teams have sold out with all six matches to be played in Sydney and Canberra.
The second and third one-day internationals at the SCG and Manuka Oval respectively have been exhausted, while all three Twenty20 games are sold out.
Limited tickets to the opening one-day international on November 27 at the SCG remain, with approximately 1,900 public seats left. Both the SCG and Manuka Oval will be at 50% capacity.

"It's fantastic to have such high quality international cricket coming to the ACT this summer and I'm not surprised that fans have acted so quickly to ensure they have a seat," Cricket ACT chief executive James Allsopp said.
"Both games at Manuka are going to be fierce contests, and we look forward to welcoming the Australian and Indian teams to Canberra.
"With such high demand, it's inevitable that some fans may have missed out, but there is plenty of other cricket to come with BBL matches in Canberra."
