A cheerleader working in the IPL shared a nightmarish ordeal after a blackout in Dharamsala caused the match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals to be called off midway. The floodlights dimmed and then turned off, prompting IPL chairman Arun Dhumal to evacuate the stadium for security reasons. The blackout was reportedly due to air raid alerts in nearby cities, raising concerns about the ongoing military conflict with Pakistan. As the stadium was being evacuated, a cheerleader described the scary situation, with people screaming about possible bombs. Despite the ordeal, the league awaits government directives before deciding whether to continue the IPL 2025 season. The Lucknow Super Giants’ game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Lucknow is scheduled to proceed as planned, with decisions being made based on the evolving situation and the best interest of all stakeholders.
