“BCCI receives the government nod to host tomorrow’s match in Dharamshala, but May 11 match was rescheduled from Dharmshala to Mumbai, the new date of the match will be posted shortly,” BCCI sources informed ANI.

PBKS’ next match against Mumbai Indians (MI) at Dharamsala is also redesigned as the airlines have suspended their flight services in 11 cities in north, northwestern and central India until May 10 which include Srinagar, Jammu, Amritsar, Leh, Chandigarh, Dharamshala, Bikaner, Jodhpur, Gwalior, Kishangarh, and Rajkot.

“Mumbai Indians vs Punjab Kings match moved from Dharmshala to Mumbai since Dharmshala Airport has been shut down and the match had been fixed for May 11,” said a BCCI official.

On Wednesday, nine terror targets were successfully attacked by the Indian Armed Forces using special precision weapons in an operation named Operation Sindoor, which targeted four targets in Pakistan, Bahawalpur, Muridke, Sarjal, and Mehmoona Joya, and five in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK).

The operation was conducted in collaboration by the Indian Army, Navy, and Air Force, where mobilisation of assets and troops took place. The attacks on all nine of the targeted sites proved to be successful, sources also revealed.

The Indian troops had chosen the points to attack highest Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commanders responsible for financing terror attacks in India. This was the deepest raid inside Pakistan’s non-disputed terrain by India after 1971. This was New Delhi’s most impactful armed intervention in the Pakistani domain within the past five decades.
