The Delhi Capitals are having a terrific time at the Indian Premier League (IPL) and currently sit at the second spot in the points table. The team is set to take on the Mumbai Indians in the next game at their home ground. And, the visitors can expect a heavy support for the home side. Now, in what comes as a good news for Delhi fans, the Delhi Metro has extended the departure of the last train from ITO metro station by one hour to cater the rush. The last train will now leave at midnight from the ITO station. The step has been taken for the cricket fans travelling to Firoz Shah Kotla stadium to watch the IPL match Thursday evening.

At around the same stage last year, Delhi had lost six out of eight matches and was at the bottom of the points table. The team had eventually finished at the same spot. But, this year, the new-look side has bounced back under the captaincy of young Shreyas Iyer. The arrival of experienced Shikhar Dhawan from Sunrisers Hyderabad has helped the otherwise flambouyant top-order of Delhi. Dhawan scored a match-winning 97 against Kolkata Knight Riders in the last game while his opening partner Prithvi Shaw too has registered a score in 90s earlier in the tournament.
However, there could be trouble for the side as captain Shreyas Iyer suffered an injury scare on Wednesday when he was hit on the right arm during training. Iyer has been the team's leading run-getter in the tournament with 266 runs at an average of 33.25. There was no official update given on the extent of his injury.
Delhi Capitals are on course for their first play-off appearance since 2012, having won five out of their eight games. They are second on the points table with 10 points.
