While other players travel via charter planes or booked flights, Dube faced a challenge when all flights from Ahmedabad to Mumbai were booked.

In an unprecedented move, he, along with his wife, decided to book 3rd AC train tickets to make the journey.

Despite the risk of being recognised by fans, Dube felt the train was the most efficient option.

To maintain his anonymity, Dube wore a cap, a mask, and a long-sleeved T-shirt.

He also strategically chose a 5:10 am departure, hoping the platform would be less crowded at that hour.
