The Hyderabad Cricket Association president Mohd Azharuddin said that they are not at all involved in the sale of tickets
Azhar said "We have given the contract to a third party and they are handling it. How are we in the picture?"
Is there a chance we are involved in any of this? What happened yesterday was a sad thing. But how can you blame it on us?” he added
Azhar said that it is not possible for them to sell tickets in black
When the ticket sale is all online, apart from a few tickets offline, how can we be involved? There is the police force and they will handle the issue
When someone buys a ticket offline or online, what he does with it afterward is not in our hands
We are not bothered by what they do with them. If they sell it in black, police will take action. There are a few things which are beyond our control,” he said
Secretary R Vijayanand said, “Though we have differences in the association, we came together to conduct the match smoothly. When the ticket sale is given to a third party, they will take care of everything
We are working in tandem with the government to make the match a success,” the secretary added
