TRS working president Kt Rama Rao made an appeal to the BCCI and IPL office bearers to include Hyderabad as one of the venues for the upcoming edition of the league.

"Open appeal to @BCCI and @IPL office bearers to include Hyderabad as one of the venues for upcoming IPL season. Our effective COVID containment measures are reflected in our low number of cases among all metro cities in India & we assure you of all support from the Govt," he tweeted.

Progressing from the initial idea of hosting the 2021 edition of the IPL in one city, BCCI is exploring the option of playing the league across four to five cities. While the logistical part will need further discussion, the idea has been floated and is being discussed by the senior officials of the board.

Some of the cities that have been discussed are Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai and Hyderabad among others. While the tournament is still some time away, franchises too are open to the idea of having the league in more than one city as that will help to stay flexible with an eye on the COVID-19 situation.

Hyderabad cricket fans are hoping that BCCI will consider KTR’s appeal seriously and hold the matches in the city!
