T20 World Cup: Hours before the first ball is bowled in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 final, the atmosphere outside the Narendra Modi Stadium is already electric, and not just because India are set to face New Zealand. For many millennials streaming into the world’s largest cricket stadium on Sunday, the biggest attraction isn’t only the cricket finale but also the chance to watch their childhood pop hero Ricky Martin perform live.
Clusters of excited fans could be heard humming Livin’ la Vida Loca as they waited to enter the stadium, some admitting that the closing ceremony performance by the global pop superstar was reason enough to grab a ticket.
“We just came here to see Ricky. He has been our star since childhood,” a group of fans told IANS with excitement. “We are millennials — we love cricket, but we also love Ricky,” another fan added.
