A BCCI official said, “The World Cup warm-up match between Pakistan and New Zealand will be played in Hyderabad on September 29. Spectators will not be allowed in the ground for this match. Because this match will be held in Hyderabad on September 29. Before that, on September 28, Ganesh Visarjan and Milan Un Nabi is going to be both events. In Milan Un Nabi the procession goes till late night. Also Ganesh Visarjan can go on for a long time in the night. So local police will be busy in both these public events. So they will not be able to provide security for this match immediately on the next day. So “Hyderabad Cricket Association has decided not to allow spectators to enter this match. Therefore, spectators will not be allowed to enter the ground for this Pakistan match. However, security will be provided for both teams to enter the ground.”
This decision will be painful for Hyderabad fans. Because apart from this match only three matches will be played in Hyderabad. The most important thing is that India does not have a single match in this.
Now the spectators will not be able to go to the ground even for the Pakistan match. So this will be a bad news for Hyderabad fans.
