Hyderabad, November 23
Batsman Ambati Rayudu accused the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) of indulging in “rampant corruption” and appealed to influential state minister KT Rama Rao to intervene.
Taking to Twitter, the former Hyderabad captain accused several HCA members of having Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) cases pending against them. “Hello sir @KTRTRS, I request you to please look into and address the rampant corruption prevailing in HCA. How can Hyderabad be great when its cricket team is influenced by money and corrupt people who have numerous ACB cases against them which are being swept under the carpet,” Rayudu tweeted.
Citing HCA’s corruption, Rayudu is learnt to have opted out of the upcoming Ranji Trophy. HCA president Mohammad Azharuddin was unavailable for comment. Rayudu had announced his retirement from international cricket during the World Cup in July only to make a U-turn in August. — PTI
