Overview of the Incident
The IPL 2025 season witnessed unexpected turmoil as a significant altercation broke out among Rajasthan Royals fans during one of the matches. While the precise timing of the incident remains unclear, visuals captured a police officer sporting an ‘Assam Police’ jersey intervening to manage the chaos.
Identifying the Matchday
Assam had the privilege of hosting two IPL matches at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati: one on March 26 featuring RR against Kolkata Knight Riders and another on March 30 against Chennai Super Kings. The altercation likely occurred on one of these dates, with social media speculations pointing towards the RR versus KKR encounter as the scene of the brawl.
