The IPL 2025 season has been suspended by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in light of India’s prevailing geo-political tensions and security concerns with Pakistan. The decision was taken after Punjab Kings’ home fixture against Delhi Capitals at the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala was halted after just 10 overs worth of action.
As many as 16 matches are still left to be played in the competition, including all four playoffs’ fixtures, as BCCI contemplates the future of the tournament. The confirmation of the suspension sparked a wide range of reactions on social media, with RCB fans leading the charge, expressing frustration, heartbreak, and the familiar sentiment of “RCB and their bad luck” echoing across platforms.

While some RCB fans agreed with the decision and put national security above cricketing entertainment, others lamented team’s “bad luck”, considering Rajat Patidar’s rampaging unit had emerged as one of the leading contenders to lift the coveted title.
Notably, a small segment of RCB fans also saw a silver lining, stating that the break would allow injured players like Devdutt Padikkal and Krunal Pandya to regain full fitness.
