The league came to an abrupt halt and was later suspended for a week by the BCCI after cross-border tension between India and Pakistan, which threatened to grow into a full fledged war. However, with both countries agreeing to ceasefire, IPL is ready to restart at full throttle but it'll be interesting to keep an eye on big overseas stars, especially the Australian and Proteas. Both teams engage in the World Test Championship final, starting from June 11 at Lord's, London.
