T20 World Cup 2026: The final match of T20 World Cup 2026 will be played between India and New Zealand on March 8 at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Before this historic match, Team India has taken a unique step, which is linked to superstition and past experiences. Let us tell you, India also played the final of the 2023 ODI World Cup on this ground.

But then had to face defeat at the hands of Australia. But this time Team India does not want to leave any stone unturned.

Team India's 'trick' to win the final

According to media reports, before the final match, changes have been made in the dressing rooms of the team's hotel and stadium. It is believed that this decision has been taken so that the 'jinx' or negative history can be broken and a new beginning can be made. According to reports, the team will no longer stay in the hotel where it stayed during the 2023 ODI World Cup final.

Apart from this, in Narendra Modi Stadium also the team can use the dressing room of the visiting team instead of the 'home' dressing room.

This decision is also being linked to the spiritual thinking of the team. Earlier, practice in Mumbai also started a little late due to lunar eclipse. However, there is a big reason behind the change in the hotel. As per ICC protocol, the first finalist in Ahmedabad was always to stay at the ITC Narmada Hotel, where India stayed during the 2023 ODI World Cup final, and the second finalist would stay at the Taj Skyline.

But the reason for the change in the dressing room has not been revealed.

Team India's record in Ahmedabad

Team India has so far played 10 T20 matches at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. During this period, India has won 7 matches and lost 3 matches. At the same time, India has played 2 matches here in this tournament. Team India had defeated Netherlands by 17 runs. But against South Africa it had to face defeat by 76 runs. Which is also India's only defeat in this edition.
