Lalit Modi, Chairman and Commissioner, IPL said:

“While reluctant to relocate the semi finals at such short notice, yesterday’s incidents have made it clear that the current environment in Bangalore prevents us from continuing with our original plans.”

“The incidents were assessed by local police and the IPL’s security agency as being of a minor nature but they have forced our hand. This decision is naturally disappointing for the people of Bangalore but has been taken with the tournament’s best interests, and the interests of its many varied stakeholders, in mind.”

“The IPL wishes those affected by yesterday’s incidents a speedy recovery from injuries suffered as a result of the cowardly actions.”

“Despite this setback, we’re confident the semi finals and finals of DLF IPL 2010 will be successfully contested and provide a fitting finale to a remarkable tournament.”
