The Indian Premier League has been suspended for the week. This comes in the wake of escalating tensions between India and Pakistan.

There are several South African cricketers playing for various teams in the IPL, and their safety is paramount.

Many of them are expected to be named in the Proteas squad on Tuesday for next month’s World Test Championship final against Australia at Lord’s.

These players include Aiden Markram, Kagiso Rabada, Gerald Coetzee, and Tristan Stubbs.
