Team India is gearing up for a high-pressure semi-final clash in the T20 World Cup 2026. But just a day before the big match, the players are also set to welcome the festival of colours—Holi on March 4.
With the semi-final scheduled for March 5, celebrations are expected to be brief and low-key. This has sparked curiosity among fans: where will Team India celebrate Holi?
Likely Venue: Mumbai
As per reports, India national cricket team has reached Mumbai ahead of the semi-final, which is expected to be played there. Given the tight schedule, it is likely that the team will celebrate Holi within their hotel premises rather than stepping out.
Staying at One of Mumbai’s Costliest Hotels
Team India is reportedly staying at the luxurious The St. Regis Mumbai, part of the Marriott group and one of the most premium hotels in the city.
Here’s a look at the approximate room tariffs:
-
Single room: ₹18,000–₹23,000 per night
-
St. Regis Suite (king bed): around ₹45,000 per night
-
Mansion Suite: up to ₹1.5 lakh per night
If Holi celebrations happen at the hotel, it will certainly be one of the most high-profile (and expensive!) Holi gatherings.
Will Any Players Celebrate Holi at Home?
Some players may get a chance to celebrate Holi with family. Team captain Suryakumar Yadav and all-rounder Shivam Dube are both Mumbai natives.
Reports suggest Shivam Dube went straight home after landing at Mumbai airport, raising speculation that he might celebrate Holi with family—subject to team management approval. However, there is no official confirmation yet on whether any players have been granted leave.
Focus Still on the Big Match
While Holi celebrations may add colour to the build-up, the team’s primary focus remains the crucial semi-final, reportedly against England cricket team.
For now, fans will have to wait and see whether Team India’s Holi is celebrated in hotel whites—or at home with family—before the all-important knockout clash.
