On Sunday, May 11, several developments took place in regards to the resumption of IPL 2025. First and foremost, it was reported that the league would commence from May 16 and the BCCI has ordered the franchises to ask their overseas stars to return by Tuesday. 

Notably, on May 8, the IPL took a brief hiatus in the view of heightened tensions between India and Pakistan. The governing body suspended the league for a week and it resulted in the overseas stars leaving for their respective nations. Now since the two nations have announced a ceasefire, the IPL is set to resume and the foreign stars have been asked to return. However, reports say that several top stars such as Mitchell Star and Pat Cummins have refused to return in the view of the tensions between the two countries. 

CSK CEO Comments On Overseas Players

Every franchise is concerned over the availability of their overseas lot and in the latest events , CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan has broken his silence on this matter. He revealed that while the Men in Yellow are out of the tournament, the foreign stars will have to return. 

“Although we are not in contention for a play-off berth, we want the league to be completed. The IPL is a prestigious league, and we want it to cooperate with the BCCI on the matter. We have only two more games left, and we have advised the overseas players that they may have to return in a week," CSK CEO Kasi Viswanathan was quoted as saying by Cricbuzz.

Further, the report mentioned that the teams are set to be given the new schedule on Sunday night and then there will be more clarity on the availability of overseas players.
