The IPL match scheduled between Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians on May 11 in Dharamsala has been relocated to Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad due to the closure of the airport in Dharamsala following military action against terror infrastructure in Pakistan. The Gujarat Cricket Association secretary, Anil Patel, confirmed the change in venue, with the match now set to be played in the afternoon. With flight operations halted in Dharamsala and Chandigarh, teams are facing challenges in arranging travel to their next destinations. Both Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals, who are also affected by the airport closures, need to find alternative ways to reach their upcoming matches in Delhi. Despite the venue change, there is still uncertainty as the BCCI is yet to provide complete details to the franchise. Punjab Kings, aiming for their first IPL play-offs since 2014, are awaiting further instructions. Delhi Capitals are scheduled to play Gujarat Titans on the same day as the relocated match.
