IPL 2025 Match Between Punjab Kings And Delhi Capitals Called Off Midway In Dharamsala

The IPL 2025 match between Punjab Kings and Delhi Capitals at Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala on Thursday was called off “due to a significant technical failure” at the stadium.
After winning the toss and opting to bat first, Punjab Kings were 122 for 1 in 10.1 overs when the lights went out.
Punjab Kings opener Priyansh Arya had just been dismissed for 70 off 34 by T Natarajan before the match had been halted as three floodlight towers went off around 9.29pm IST. Around 11 minutes later, the match was eventually called off.
“Due to a power outage in the area, one of the light towers at the HPCA stadium malfunctioned. BCCI regrets the inconvenience caused to the in-stadium attendees,” an official statement said.
