The buzz in New Delhi intensifies with T20 World Cup 2026’s Super-8 clash between powerhouse South Africa and spirited Zimbabwe at Arun Jaitley Cricket Stadium this Sunday. Match timings: 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM, but roads will feel the strain from 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM due to fan frenzy.
Delhi Police’s proactive measures include traffic diversions on Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg and JLN Marg. Ban on heavy vehicles from Daryaganj via Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg and Guru Nanak Chowk to Asaf Ali Road. Everyone’s asked to bypass these stretches for safer travels.
Critical zones: JLN Marg (Rajghat-Delhi Gate-Kamla Market), Asaf Ali Road (Turkman Gate-Delhi Gate), Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg (Delhi Gate-Ramcharan Agarwal Chowk). New Delhi Railway Station goers, brace for ITO and Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg pile-ups—opt for early starts or alternatives.
South Africa rides a wave of form, semifinal ticket punched via 76-run win over India and 9-wicket thrashing of West Indies in Super-8. Zimbabwe, out of contention, hunts for pride against a Proteas side they’ve never toppled in T20s.
Balancing cricket glory with urban mobility, this event tests Delhi’s resolve. Stay informed via official channels to navigate the diversions seamlessly.
