Hyderabad Cricket Association president Mohd Azharuddin termed “as very unfortunate” the incidents that had happened at the Gymkhana Ground on Thursday morning, venue where the tickets were on sale for the T-20 international match between India and Australia to be held at Uppal Stadium here on September 25 and which led to a stampede and lathicharge with a huge crowd turning up.
