According to reports in the Bengali daily Anandabazar Patrika, four men were arrested at Ahmedabad airport on the night of May 20, 2024, on suspicion of terrorist activities. Police have apparently recovered arms, suspicious videos, and text messages after searching the hideout of the four accused. Virat Kohli learned about the arrests after arriving in Ahmedabad.
Police officer Vijay Singh Jwala stated that as soon as they informed the RCB management about Virat's security threat, they immediately canceled all practice sessions, including the one supposed to happen at Gujarat College ground in Ahmedabad on Tuesday to prepare for the knockout match, and even the press conference scheduled for this evening before the eliminator match against the Rajasthan Royals. The police official added that they also informed the Rajasthan Royals team about the terrorist threat, but they chose to proceed with their practice session.

As of now, there is no news circulating about the cancellation of today's eliminator match between RCB and Rajasthan Royals. Police officials are currently investigating further into the matter, and another official statement will soon be released regarding the entire case.
