NEW DELHI: The Board Control of Cricket in India (BCCI) on Friday announced the suspension of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL), sources said.
The tournament had entered the decisive stage with the Final scheduled for May 25.
The development comes on the heels of Thursday night’s unfortunate incident at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association (HPCA) Stadium, where the highly anticipated match between PBKS and DC was called off.
Spectators were informed of the cancellation and asked to vacate the premises, while both teams were escorted back to their hotel.
Soon after, Punjab Kings confirmed the development through their official social media handle, posting, “Match has been called off.”
