According to Espncricinfo, the city's police are in close coordination with the Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA), which is likely to open a number of stands for the victory lap that is now expected to take place inside the stadium's premises.

The KSCA is preparing for at least 10,000 fans to flock to the ground, but that number is likely to be a lot higher.

On this occasion, a special felicitation ceremony has been organised by the KSCA at the Chinnaswamy Stadium at 5:00 PM Today for all RCB players," according to the Traffic Advisory of Bengaluru Police.

"Entry to the event will be permitted only to those with valid tickets and passes. As there is a limited parking facility available near the Chinnaswamy Stadium, those who are attending the event are advised to use public transport and Metro. The public is requested to cooperate," it added. (ANI)
