WATCH VIDEO | Daryl Mitchell Tours Streets of Ahmedabad In An Auto Rickshaw Ride With His Wife

New Zealand cricketer Daryl Mitchell was spotted taking a ride on public transport with his wife in Ahmedabad during the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026.

The New Zealand Blackcaps are currently in the city for their scheduled fixture in the marquee cricket tournament and will be in action at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Motera for their next group-stage encounter.

Before the ICC Men's T20 World Cup kicked off, Bangladesh denied travelling to India, claiming that they had safety and security concerns for their players and team management.

Their denial led to the ICC kicking out Bangladesh, with Scotland replacing them in the marquee tournament.
