Gujarat Titans endured a major scare after the IPL 2026 final when their team bus caught fire while returning from Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium to the team hotel on Sunday night. Reports indicate a short circuit triggered the blaze, causing smoke to spread inside the vehicle. All players and staff were evacuated safely, with no injuries reported. The squad reportedly waited on the roadside for nearly an hour before a replacement bus arrived. The incident capped a disappointing evening for Gujarat Titans, who lost the IPL 2026 final to Royal Challengers Bengaluru by five wickets. The scare followed a demanding travel schedule and weather-related disruptions in recent days. (PC: X)
