The Indian Premier League (IPL) has been indefinitely suspended due to the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan.
The decision came on May 9, 2025, following growing concerns about safety in the wake of military confrontations along the India-Pakistan border.
The IPL's future had been in question ever since Thursday's match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals was abruptly halted due to air raid alerts in nearby cities of Jammu and Pathankot.
The suspension of the popular cricket tournament reflects the severity of the situation, as the country is gripped by heightened security concerns.
A Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) official mentioned, "It does not look nice that cricket goes on while the country is at war." With the IPL final scheduled for May 25 in Kolkata, the indefinite suspension raises questions about the future of this season's tournament and the broader impact of ongoing political tensions on the sport.
