The IPL match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals in Dharamshala was abruptly called off after a sudden power outage in the stadium. According to initial reports, the blackout was a deliberate security measure following intelligence warnings of a possible threat from Pakistan. Spectators were immediately evacuated, and players and staff were rushed to secure locations.

The ongoing tension between India and Pakistan has triggered a high alert across the country. The IPL governing body is currently holding an emergency meeting to assess whether the remainder of the tournament should be postponed or cancelled. Foreign players and staff have reportedly expressed serious concerns about their safety.
A formal statement from the IPL authorities is expected soon as the situation develops.
