The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) has given a breather to public by extending the timings of its metro services beyond the ordinary scheduling to facilitate the travellers during the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 fixtures.

All these dates will be applicable for extended metro services, which will also help in avoiding traffic congestion on the roads and promote the usage of public transportation.

Speaking of Delhi Capitals, the side has been enjoying an exceptional run so far in the tournament, being the only side to remain unbeaten in all the four games they have played. The Axar Patel-led side won its first couple of home games in Visakhapatnam and then travelled to Chennai and Bengaluru to beat the CSK and RCB, respectively, in their away fixtures as well, which has helped them remain at top of the IPL 2025 Points Table.
They will next play the Mumbai Indians on April 13 at their home venue, and will be hopeful of maintaining their unbeaten run. Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, will be hoping for a turnaround as their campaign hasn’t looked in balance so far.
