Sunrisers Hyderabad is reportedly considering relocating due to the alleged "unprofessional and hostile environment" created by the Hyderabad Cricket Association.
Under the leadership of Pat Cummins, Sunrisers Hyderabad are reportedly considering moving away from their home venue and are contemplating not playing their IPL 2025 matches at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium. The 2016 champions are unhappy with claims of intimidation and blackmail by senior officials of the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) over free tickets. As a result, the franchise is reconsidering where to play their remaining home matches.
Sunrisers Hyderabad's general manager, Srinath TB, has sent a letter to HCA treasurer CJ Srinivas Rao, making it clear that the franchise will not tolerate such behavior.
"All these unprofessional threats and actions by HCA, especially by the HCA president, make it evident that you don't want Sunrisers to play at your stadium. If that is the case, please let me know in writing so that we can inform BCCI, the Telangana govt, and our management that you wish for us to move to another venue, and we will move,"
"We have been working with HCA for the last 12 years. Only from last season have we been facing constant issues and harassment from HCA," he added.
Sunrisers have played two games so far this season, where they one won and lost the other.
