The Match No. 58 of the Indian Premier League 2025 between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals has been called off due a technical concern, following a floodlights’ failure. Exact details on the matter are currently awaited, but the fans have been asked to vacate HPCA Stadium, Dharamshala – the venue for this game.
Dharamshala, one of the most picturesque venues in the country, could not witness a full game happen on Thursday, and both the Board of Control for Cricket in India released an apology stating its regret on the trouble caused to all the in-stadium attendees for the game. The points for the game, however, have not been shared so far, since the game is likely to be rescheduled at a later date.
Though the official word from the organizers confirms a technical failure, Rajeev Shukla, the board vice president appeared on media, and his statement hints at a possible safety concern.
“We are organising a special train from close to Dharamshala to bring everybody home safely. As of now the match has been called off and the stadium has been evacuated. We will take a call on the tournament’s future depending on the situation tomorrow. As of now, players’ safety is utmost important. The match couldn’t have continued tonight because of the situation.
