In the wake of India's missile strikes on Pakistan, Dharamsala's airport has temporarily closed, disrupting IPL teams' travel plans. Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals face logistical challenges for upcoming matches, prompting a 'wait and watch' approach.
With Dharamsala being a home base for Punjab Kings, their immediate logistics remain unaffected. However, Delhi Capitals must strategize their travel for Sunday's game as Mumbai Indians' plans are under uncertainty.
BCCI sources indicate ongoing discussions on potential solutions, including bus travel if the airport stays shut. India's precision strikes, following a terror attack in Pahalgam, have led to the temporary shutdown of 18 airports in northern and western India.
