# Cricket: Players and support staff started leaving India after yesterday’s announcement the Indian Premier League was suspended for a week. This followed the escalating conflict on the border between India and Pakistan. India’s governing body, the BCCI, says all stakeholders agreed unanimously it was not appropriate for the IPL to continue in the current environment. The CEO of the South African Cricketers’ Association, Andrew Breetzke, also said they are in direct contact with the South African players in the IPL and offered them any support they need.
