IPL 2025 Likely To Resume On May 15 Or 16: Report- News18 – News18

The 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), which was suspended for one week on Friday, May 9, is all set to restart on Thursday (May 15) or Friday (May 16). According to a report in Times of India on Saturday (May 10), “The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is in a huddle to finalise the details and remaining fixtures, and it’s reliably understood that except Dharamsala, matches will be played pan-India."

The development came after India and Pakistan agreed on a ceasefire on Saturday evening.

It has been reported that the majority of the overseas players who have left India on Friday and Saturday will be asked to rejoin their respective teams at the earliest.
More than 60 overseas players are plying their trade for 10 teams in the ongoing 2025 edition of the IPL. A total of 57 matches have been played so far, and the remaining matches will be completed in due course. The BCCI will release an updated schedule in the coming days.

The 58th league match of IPL 2025 between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals in Dharamsala on Thursday, May 8, was stopped after 10.1 overs of play due to a blackout.
According to reports, the match between PBKS and DC will be played again when the tournament resumes next week.
