The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has announced the updated schedule for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 which was suspended due to India and Pakistan border tensions. The IPL governing body also announced that the Punjab Kings (PBKS) vs Delhi Capitals (DC) clash, which was suspended midway, will start from the beginning. The clash will take place at Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on May 24. BCCI also stated that the venue for the playoff matches will be announced later.
There will be 17 matches played across 6 venues, starting May 17, 2025, and the final will take place on June 3, 2025. The revised schedule also includes two double-headers, which will be played on two Sundays. Here is the updated schedule for the remainder of the marquee event.
