Ahmedabad Mar 8 : Cricket legend MS Dhoni touched down in Ahmedabad Sunday, gearing up for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 final between India and New Zealand at Narendra Modi Stadium.
The 44-year-old, who captained India’s first T20 WC win in 2007, had cheered from Wankhede stands during India’s semi-final nail-biter over England alongside wife Sakshi, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan, Anil Kapoor, KL Rahul, and Rohit Sharma.
Suryakumar Yadav’s India eyes history as first host to win and third overall title, after smashing 253/7 vs England. New Zealand, led by Finn Allen’s explosive 33-ball ton over South Africa, chases their first crown—despite India’s recent 4-1 T20I series edge.
Dhoni’s presence amps up the hype—can India erase past Ahmedabad heartbreaks.
