The Indian Premier League (IPL) has been suspended for a week due to heightened tensions between India and Pakistan, affecting the cricketing world. The Board of Control for Cricket in India announced the decision to ensure the security of all involved.
As border clashes continue, culminating in deadly attacks, the impact on the sports community is significant, with both leagues taking measures to safeguard participants. Friday's IPL match in Dharamsala was abandoned due to a power outage connected to the crisis.
Meanwhile, the Pakistan Super League (PSL) has relocated its remaining games to the United Arab Emirates to evade dangers from the ongoing conflict. Both cricket boards have stated their commitment to balancing sports and national security.
