IPL 2025 on 7-day suspension amid tensions in India and Pakistan
The match between Delhi Capitals (DC) in Dharamsala and Punjab Kings (PBK) IPL 2025 was called as Pakistan launched a coronavirus attack on India and had to implement a blackout and was called midway through Pakistan.
The day after the incident, the Indian Cricket Committee (BCCI) announced that during a meeting with relevant authorities and stakeholders it had been decided to suspend India’s Premier League 2025 for a week.
BCCI also said fresh updates on the new schedule and venue for IPL 2025 will be announced soon after a comprehensive assessment of the situation and discussions with the government.
In particular, 58 matches have been completed so far in the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League, with 12 more group stage matches remaining along with the playoffs.
