The PBKS VS DC party in Dharamsala was called halfway due to cross -border tensions, and the BCCI is now evaluating the destination of the next accessories, including the clash of May 9 between LSG and RCB.
Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 faced its most serious interruption, but after the May 8 match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals, it stopped and finally suspended in Dharamsala due to security concerns derived from cross -border tensions.
Air attacks in the nearby cities of Jammu and Pathankot had raised security concerns after which the reflectors went out one by one and the crowd evacuated to a safe place.
The Cricket Control Board in India (BCCI) stopped the game halfway and the players and the crowd were immediately evacuated from the stadium. According to Toi, players, support staff and transmission staff are now being transferred from Dharamsala to a safer location.

BCCI vice president, Rajev Shukla, confirmed that the Board will attend the future of the tournament depending on the situation. “We are organizing a special train from near Dharamsala to take everyone home safely … We will take a call on the future of the tournament depending on the situation tomorrow. From now on, the safety of the players is more important,” Shukla told Toi.
Although the teams of the abandoned game have been transported safely to their hotel and are waiting for more instructions, concerns have grown about whether the next games in northern India can proceed as planned.

The BCCI has not yet issued a formal statement with respect to the state of the LSG vs RCB game, which is scheduled to take place in Lucknow, a city that has been placed under a red alert due to the ongoing operating on a Sondoor and is considered a high sensitivity area. Although the situation in Lucknow is calmer than in Dharamsala, the Board is closely monitoring local developments and the link with security agencies before giving green light.
The president of the IPL, Arun Dhumal, told PTI that the game would continue as planned from now on, but the situation is being monitored.
“We are reviewing the situation at this time. It is an evolving situation. We have not received any government directive. Obviously, the decision will be taken taking into account all logistics,” Dhumal told PTI.
As things are, the LSG vs RCB accessory remains in the IPL calendar. However, fans and franchises refer to possible changes of last minute in the event that the security environment deteriorates even more.
For now, an official update of the BCCI is expected in the next 24 hours.
