Bomb Blast at IPL cricket match in Bangalore

A bomb blast outside a cricket stadium in the southern Indian city of Bangalore has injured eight people.
The blast happened shortly before the start of an Indian Premier League (IPL) cricket match between the Mumbai Indians and the Royal Challengers Bangalore.
The match went ahead with about 40,000 people in Chinnaswamy Stadium.
The team's captains were walking out on to the pitch to toss the coin to decide who would bat first when the explosion happened.
Bangalore Police Commissioner Shankar Bidari told a news conference that the bomb was a "low-intensity" explosive, stating "it appears some sort of explosive material was hidden in the wall, some distance away from the stands.
Bidari said that a section of the perimeter wall had been damaged and that forensic experts had been called in to investigate.
Following the balst, the IPL semi-finals have been moved from Bangalore to Mumbai amid security fears.
IPL President Lalit Modi stated "the environment in Bangalore stops 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.
"This is really damaging and dangerous for sport in India - this is the biggest ever year for sport in India."
The International Cricket Council said it was too early to comment on the attack or its ramifications on the 2011 World Cup, which will be jointly hosted by India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
There was no immediate reaction from the Indian organisers of 2010 Commonwealth Games, which are set to be held in Delhi from 3rd to 14th October.
