The chairman of the Indian Premiere League (IPL), Arun Dhumal, stated that a decision on whether the IPL 2025 will continue amid the India-Pakistan military conflict will be made after reviewing the situation. The cricket match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals at Dharamshala Cricket Stadium was halted due to drone and missile attacks launched by Pakistan. The stadium was evacuated, and Dhumal mentioned that they are assessing the situation and have not received any directive from the government. Tensions escalated between India and Pakistan following a Pakistani drone and missile attack targeting regions in Jammu, Punjab, and Rajasthan. Indian air defense systems intercepted the attack, leading to blackouts and air raid sirens in several cities. This escalation came after India launched ‘Operation Sindoor,’ a military strike on terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in retaliation for a previous terrorist attack in Pahalgam. The situation is evolving, and further updates are awaited.
