The official statement suggested that Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 would remain suspended only for a week, as of May 9. A final development in history establishes that the action will probably resume this month. However, following the cross -border tensions between India and Pakistan, the remaining 16 Games of IPL 2025 would take place in just three cities.

Which are the 3 preselected places for IPL 2025

The three places preselected by the BCCI to carry out the rest of the tournament are: M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore, Ma Chidambaram stadium in Chepauk, Chennai and Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Uppal, Hyderabad.

The three cities of the South are scheduled to celebrate the remaining League stage games, as well as the four playoff games, which include the IPL 2025 final. There may be several double headers to complete the tournament as soon as possible.

The reason is that these cities and places are further from tense borders. In addition, history suggests that these regions are likely to be safer than areas in Mumbai.

The final decision to continue the tournament is in the hands of the Indian government. However, the authorities and organizing franchises understand and recognize the difficulties of concluding the tournament outside its original schedule, places and other original resources.
