Delhi Capitals Playing XI vs SRH:

SRH Could Move Home Games; Here’s What We Know

The Sunrisers, captained by Pat Cummins For their remaining IPL 2025 games, Hyderabad is thinking about leaving their home stadium, Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. The Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) officials are accused of intimidating and blackmailing the 2016 winners over free tickets, which has caused the team to reconsider its home field for the remainder of the season.

Workplace Misconduct Allegations: How Serious Is It?

In a letter to HCA treasurer CJ Srinivas Rao, SunRisers Hyderabad’s general manager, Srinath TB, expressed the franchise’s displeasure with HCA’s actions. “It’s clear that you don’t want Sunrisers to play at your stadium after all of these impolitic threats and actions by HCA, particularly from the HCA president. If so, do notify me in writing so that we can communicate your desire for us to relocate to a different location to our management, the Telangana government, and BCCI.

HCA Healthcare Problems: What’s Happening Now?

Additionally, Srinath revealed that the team has been dealing with HCA since the previous season. On the day of the game against the Lucknow Super Giants, he brought up a particular instance in which HCA officials shut up a box.

As part of the 3,900 free seats, HCA has been given 50 free tickets (F12A box) for a number of years. But this year, you are requesting an extra 20 free tickets in a separate box while asserting that the box can only hold 30. “We pay the proper rent for the stadium, and the stadium is under our jurisdiction during the IPL’s tenure,” he continued. However, you sealed the F3 box during the last game and wouldn’t open it unless you were given twenty more free tickets. Because of the unpleasant atmosphere created by this unprofessional attitude, cooperation becomes more challenging.

Resolution Request

Since the previous season, the problems have gotten worse, and Srinath highlighted that this is not the first time that HCA has intimidated people in this way. In light of HCA’s persistent threats, pressure, and blackmail, he wrote, “We propose that we proceed in accordance with the signed agreement between us, whereby we will distribute 10% of complimentary tickets among each stand.” To address and settle the issue, the franchise has formally asked to meet with the members of the apex council.
