After India clinched the 2026 T20 World Cup title against New Zealand in Ahmedabad, all-rounder Shivam Dube opted for a train journey to Mumbai to reunite with his young children. With flights unavailable, Dube traveled incognito on the Sayaji Express, hiding his identity amid the post-victory frenzy. The move highlighted his desire to return home quickly despite his celebrity status.
New Zealand defeated India by 50 runs in the fourth T20I played in Visakhapatnam. Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav explained that the team deliberately fielded six batters to give opportunities to World Cup squad members and test challenging situations. Despite Shivam Dube's explosive innings, India was bowled out for 165.
