The first of the seven league matches at the Arun Jaitley Stadium will be played between the Delhi Capitals and the Gujarat Titans on Tuesday (April 4, 2023).
In view of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 matches in the National Capital, Delhi Metro has decided to extend the timings of its last trains by 30-45 minutes on all lines barring the Airport Express Line on match days. Notably, Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium is set to host as many as seven league matches scheduled on April 4, 11, 20 and 29 and May 6, 13, and 20th.
The first of the seven matches will be played between the Delhi Capitals and the Gujarat Titans on Tuesday (April 4, 2023). Notably, the tournament is returning to its traditional home and away format this year with each team playing 7 home and 7 away matches before the Playoff fixtures. With Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium home to the David Warner-led Delhi Capitals, the venue will get to host the team's home matches.
"DMRC will be extending its last train timings by about 30-45 minutes on all Lines (except Airport Line) to enable spectators to reach their destination smoothly," the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) said in an official release.
