Indian Premier League to resume on Saturday with final moved to June 3

By Canadian Press on May 12, 2025.

NEW DELHI (AP) — The Indian Premier League will resume on Saturday following the simmering down of cross-border tensions between India and Pakistan.

IPL officials made the announcment on Monday, three days after the world’s richest Twenty20 league was suspended owing to military strikes by both countries at each other.

No games will be lost. The Punjab Kings-Delhi Capitals game abandoned in Dharamsala in the 11th over on Thursday will be replayed.

Chandigarh and Dharamsala, Punjab’s home and the nearest venue to the border, have been ruled out. Punjab will play its final two round-robin games in Jaipur.

The final, originally scheduled for May 25, will be contested on June 3.
