"No DJs, Dancing Girls": Sunil Gavaskar's Blunt Message As IPL Resumes, Keeping In Mind Those Who 'Lost Dear Ones'
The IPL 2025 will restart on May 17 after a week's gap. As India-Pakistan border tensions escalated, the BCCI, on Friday last week, released a statement: "At this critical juncture, the BCCI stands firmly with the nation. We express our solidarity with the Government of India, the Armed Forces and the people of our country. The Board salutes the bravery, courage, and selfless service of our armed forces, whose heroic efforts under Operation Sindoor continue to protect and inspire the nation, as they lead a resolute response to the recent terrorist attack and the unwarranted aggression by Pakistan's armed forces."
