Quick rundown

- 2.The KSCA wanted a tiny 2,000–3,000 crowd, but the government vetoed it for safety.
- 3.A backup venue at the BCCI Centre of Excellence could save the day if police permit is denied.
- 4.Kohli and Pant arrived late to Bengaluru to train with the Delhi squad ahead of their opener against Andhra.
- 5.The June stampede tragedy at Chinnaswamy still shadows top-tier cricket, keeping the stadium effectively off-limits.
