India Vs New Zealand, T20 World Cup Final: Men In Blue Gear Up For Ahmedabad Blockbuster
Team India trained at the nets for one last time in ICC T20 World Cup 2026 on Saturday evening (March 7), ahead of their mouth-watering finale against New Zealand at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The Men In Blue are aiming to become the first-ever side to successfully defend the T20 World Cup title, and also the first one to lift the trophy a third time. Meanwhile, captain Suryakumar Yadav brushed aside any concerns about the form of Varun Chakravarthy, even as the Tamil Nadu spinner kept largely to himself at the training session. After some single-wicket bowling, Chakravarthy walked back and quietly sat on a blue ice box, observing the proceedings as Kuldeep and Tilak Varma took turns bowling in the adjacent net.
