Amid escalating cross-border tensions between India and Pakistan, the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, a venue that has hosted over 50 international fixtures and numerous domestic matches, was reportedly struck by a drone mere hours before a scheduled Pakistan Super League match on Thursday.

The PSL match between Peshawar Zalmi and Karachi Kings was slated to begin at 8 PM on May 8. Following the incident, multiple videos allegedly capturing the aftermath began circulating on social media platforms, though their authenticity has not been independently verified by Mid-Day.
