IPL cricket suspended indefinitely as India and Pakistan tensions reach worrying point | Cricket | Sport


The IPL has been suspended indefinitely as the tensions between India and Pakistan escalate. Both countries are on the brink of all-out war. 

Border clashes on the border in Kashmir have continued following several Indian missile strikes and drone attacks. Pakistan claims to have killed up to 50 Indian soldiers in retaliation. 

Reports now suggest that the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is set to ‘indefinitely’ suspend the IPL. A source told IANS India: “BCCI wants to stand with the nation at this time and thus suspends IPL 2025 with immediate effect.

“It’s indefinite at the moment (on a window to resume IPL 2025 in future). It will only happen if there will be time later in the year. But for now nothing.”
