The IPL 2026 final has been moved from Bengaluru to Ahmedabad due to a dispute over free tickets requested by the Karnataka government. IPL Chairman Arun Dhumal stated that the Karnataka Cricket Association's request for an additional 10,570 free tickets, on top of the usual 15% allocation, led to the decision. This move aims to ensure more tickets are available for general fans, as the smaller capacity of the Bengaluru stadium would have left only 20,000 tickets for the public.
