The HPCA recently held a meeting to discuss preparations for the upcoming Indian Premier League matches at Dharamsala. The focus was on logistical planning and coordination among various agencies. Attendees included officials from the Kangra district administration, Punjab Kings, and members of the BCCI.
Dharamsala, a venue for Punjab Kings, will host three league matches next month against Delhi Capitals, Mumbai Indians, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The HPCA Stadium, known for its picturesque backdrop of the Dhauladhar mountain range, has hosted 14 IPL matches so far. The pitch is expected to offer good pace and bounce, ensuring a fair contest between bat and ball.
The upcoming match between PBKS and DC on May 11 will mark the first IPL game at the venue since last season, when a match was halted due to drone incursions within a 100-kilometer radius. IPL chairman Arun Dhumal was present at the venue during the incident, assisting in evacuating officials and spectators.
Overall, the meeting highlighted the importance of thorough planning and coordination to ensure the smooth execution of the IPL matches at Dharamsala. Published on April 25, 2026.
