The IPL 2025 was on Friday suspended for one week in light of the intensifying military standoff between India and Pakistan. The decision follows a growing wave of uncertainty that began with the abrupt cancellation of Thursday's match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals in Dharamsala, which was halted mid-innings due to air raid alerts in the nearby regions of Jammu and Pathankot.
"The tournament has been suspended for a week. The next decision will be taken after assessing the situation," said IPL chairman Arun Dhumal.
