Indian Railways will operate special trains to Ahmedabad in view of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup final scheduled tomorrow, March 8, 2026, at the Narendra Modi Stadium. The move aims to accommodate the surge in passenger demand as thousands of cricket fans travel to witness the high-profile clash between India and New Zealand.
Special services have been announced from Delhi, Mumbai, and Pune, with additional coaches attached to handle the rush. The Delhi–Ahmedabad special train will depart tonight, while Western Railway has scheduled multiple superfast specials from Mumbai. Pune will also see dedicated services to ensure timely arrival of fans before the match.
Authorities have advised passengers to book early as demand is extremely high, with airfares from major cities skyrocketing ahead of the final. Railways have also stepped up security measures at stations and on trains to ensure smooth travel for fans heading to Ahmedabad.
