On Thursday, May 8, the IPL match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals, held in Dharamshala, was abruptly called off midway. Rising tensions at the border between India and Pakistan, along with concerns over civilian security, led to the cancellation of the match. This decision was prompted by reports of a drone strike in the Pathankot region of Jammu and Kashmir, located approximately 80 kilometers from the venue in Dharamshala.
