Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag has taken a sharp dig at Pakistan following reports of ceasefire violations mere hours after a truce was declared between the two nations. Sehwag posted an image on social media with the Hindi phrase “Kutte ki dum tedi ki tedi hi rehti hai,” which translates to “A dog’s tail remains crooked,” implying that certain behaviors are unchangeable.
The ceasefire, announced at 5:00 PM IST on May 10, 2025, was intended to halt all military actions across land, air, and sea. However, reports soon emerged of explosions in the Jammu and Kashmir region, indicating violations of the agreement. These developments occurred despite global acknowledgment of the ceasefire.
Sehwag’s post resonated with many Indians, reflecting widespread frustration over the perceived breach of trust. The Indian government has since issued high-alert warnings across multiple states, implementing blackouts and deploying air defense systems in response to the renewed tensions. This incident underscores the fragile nature of peace efforts in the region and the challenges in maintaining long-term ceasefire agreements.
IPL 2025 Likely To Resume Next Week After India-Pakistan Ceasefire: Reports
The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 is expected to resume next week following a mutually agreed-upon ceasefire between India and Pakistan after ‘Operation Sindoor’. The ceasefire, announced on May 10, 2025, at 5 PM IST, will see both countries stop all firing and military action on land, air, and sea.
The BCCI had suspended the IPL 2025 tournament for a week amid rising border tensions between India and Pakistan. The decision was made after the cancellation of the highly anticipated match between Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Delhi Capitals (DC) on May 8, 2025, due to security concerns.
According to inputs from Sportstak, the tournament will likely resume next week. However, the BCCI will review the security situation before confirming the new schedule and venues for the remaining matches.
The ceasefire agreement is a positive development for the IPL 2025, which was facing uncertainty due to the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan.
The potential resumption of the IPL 2025 next week brings relief to cricket fans and players alike. With the ceasefire in place, the focus can shift back to the game, and the tournament can proceed with minimal disruptions. The BCCI’s commitment to ensuring the safety of players and staff will be crucial in determining the success of the tournament.
