The escalating conflict between India and Pakistan has forced both countries to suspend or move their cash-rich cricket leagues.

The Indian Premier League, one of the world’s richest sports competitions with ten franchises valued at about $1 billion each, said it had suspended the matches of its ongoing season for a week. The league’s 5-year broadcast deal alone is worth over $6 billion.

On Thursday night, one of its matches in the Himalayan town of Dharamsala had to be abandoned, and the stadium of about 20,000 people vacated, as heavy shelling continued further along the border with Pakistan.
