In order to ease travel for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 matches, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has extended the hours of its metro services beyond their regular schedule. According to a press statement, DMRC would run 76 additional trains on all operational lines on the days when the Delhi Capitals play at the capital city’s Arun Jaitley Stadium.
The final game is set for May 11; the matches in the historic location will take place on April 13, 16, 27, and 29. All of these dates will be used for extended metro services, which will encourage the use of public transport and aid to prevent traffic jams on the highways.
“The Delhi Metro will be making 76 additional train journeys on match day by extending its last train timings by roughly 01 to 02 hours on all Lines in preparation for the sudden rush that is anticipated at these local Metro stations once the event is done.
This will make it easier for spectators to use the Metro to go to their destinations,” Delhi Metro stated in a press statement on April 11.

The Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, have been having a fantastic tournament run thus far. They are the only team to have won all four of their games. The team led by Axar Patel has maintained its lead in the IPL 2025 Points Table after winning their first two home games in Visakhapatnam and then travelling to Chennai and Bengaluru to defeat CSK and RCB, respectively, in their away games.
They will want to continue their winning streak when they play the Mumbai Indians at home on April 13. However, because their campaign hasn’t appeared balanced thus far, the Mumbai Indians will be hoping for a change of pace.
