Highlights of the IPL 2025: In a press statement released on Friday, the BCCI formally confirmed the immediate suspension of the remaining IPL 2024 season. Following an increase in Indo-Pak tensions brought on by the Pahalgam terror assault, the decision was made. The event has been stopped for one week, effective immediately, the press announcement stated.
Technical difficulties forced the midway cancellation of Thursday's IPL 2025 match between PBKS and DC in Dharamshala. In the midst of escalating military tensions between India and Pakistan, the incident occurred concurrently with reports of intense firing in the border areas.
The BCCI decided to halt the event after a decision was made on Friday regarding whether the remaining matches would proceed based on government recommendations. One of the stadium's four floodlights went out at approximately 9:30 PM IST during the PBKS vs. DC game, setting off the crisis. Players and officials quickly headed to the dressing room after what was initially thought to be a technical problem, and fans were asked to leave.
