Under a cloud of war, IPL 2025 has been suspended.

- Rasesh Mandani

MUMBAI: For a week now before the Board of Control for Cricket in India will review the situation again. If there is no scope of immediate resumption, it's certain every effort would be made by the Indian cricket establishment to play the remaining 17 matches — 13 league matches and playoffs — of the game's biggest money spinner.

Go back a few years to 2021 when the world was hit by Covid. As things got better in England, the ECB resumed bilateral cricket behind closed doors.

But the BCCI's No. 1 priority wasn't to stage the T20 World Cup, for which they held hosting rights. They wanted to complete the suspended edition of IPL, which was halted following the outbreak of the second wave of Covid in India. IPL was played behind closed doors in the UAE in September-October. Then the T20 World Cup followed.

Proof of life

How many times have we squinted at curly letters, or clicked on squares with a traffic light just to prove: 'I'm not a robot'? Since 2000, CAPTCHA has been the trusty internet gatekeeper, evolving from distorted text to image grids, audio prompts, mini games. Over the past decade, this test has been slipping into the background. Take a look at how we created a form of invisible surveillance, who gets left out at the gate, and how we're inadvertently teaching the machine to see and think like us
