HYDERABAD: The World Cup warm-up match between Pakistan and New Zealand to be played at the RGIC Stadium here on September 29 will be a closed-door affair as the city police have expressed their inability to provide security for the match. The cops said they will be fully stretched in view of the Ganesh immersion and Milad-un-Nabi celebrations in the city on Sept 28.
Sources said that the Ganesh immersion spillover to Sept 29 will keep the cops on their toes and given the situation, it has been learnt that the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) has informed the Rachakonda police that spectators will not be allowed for the warm-up match.
