Food orders score big on Swiggy this IPL season
Live MintNew Delhi: As IPL fever enters its last leg, online food delivery platform Swiggy on Friday said food orders shot up 30% during match timings compared to non-cricket days. Smaller cities such as Vapi, Pilani, Kanyakumari, Rewa, Nizamabad and Kadapa emerged victorious, as they saw over 117-fold increase in orders since the beginning of the IPL, the food delivery platform said in a statement. Every time a batman hit a six, Indians celebrated by ordering these dishes — Chicken Biryani, Paneer Butter Masala, Chicken Fried Rice, Kadhai Paneer, Masala Dosa, Vegetable Biryani and Tandoori Chicken, according to the company. "Chennai and Kolkata stuck to Chicken Biryani, while Delhi bowled for Dal Makhni and Bengaluru batted for Masala Dosa," Swiggy noted.
