IPL on Edge as Overseas Players Seek Exit Amid India-Pakistan Conflict: Reports

The ongoing India-Pakistan tensions have cast a shadow over the Indian Premier League (IPL), with several overseas cricketers reportedly requesting immediate departure from the country.


The development comes in the wake of heightened security concerns and a partial match cancellation on Thursday night.

According to sources cited by PTI, foreign players, match officials, and support staff have grown increasingly uneasy about their safety. The Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals game, held at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala, was called off midway following air raid alerts in neighbouring regions. The stadium, nearly 80% full, was evacuated after floodlights failed, initially attributed to a technical issue but later tied to the security threat.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has adopted a cautious stance, closely monitoring the evolving military standoff sparked by the Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, which killed 26 people. IPL Chairman Arun Dhumal confirmed that no government directive has been issued yet but added, “Any decision will be taken considering the logistics and safety of all stakeholders.”

While Friday’s match between Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Lucknow remains unaffected for now, the fate of the remaining tournament fixtures remains uncertain. As a precaution, the May 11 clash between Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings has been shifted from Dharamsala to Ahmedabad.

Security across IPL venues has been ramped up, especially for teams with a high number of foreign players. Reports indicate that the Delhi Capitals and Punjab Kings squads were placed under tight security following the match cancellation.

As cross-border hostilities continue—with missile strikes reported in Pakistan and blackout drills in Indian border districts like Pathankot, Amritsar, and Mohali—the IPL’s continuity now hinges on daily assessments of the rapidly shifting geopolitical situation.
