Tight security arrangements have been made for today's ODI between India and Australia at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium with the city police deploying more than 3,000 personnel.
In addition, the police have pressed into service anti-sabotage, bomb disposal and sniffer dog squads for the day-night game, which has attracted a sell-out 55,000 crowd.
"We have taken all precautionary measures for the smooth conduct of the match," Deputy Commissioner of Police (Central) B N S Reddy told reporters.
Reddy also said a disaster management group drawn from 18 government departments, including home and medical, had been put in place in a nearby ground which would activate emergency measures within 15 minutes of any eventuality.
Security personnel have been given electronic badges this time, replacing the thick paper ones of the past, police said.
