Vijay Deverakonda, Tilak Varma, Mohammed Siraj Receive TCA Legal Notice over Alleged TG20 Association
TCA said the unapproved league could mislead stakeholders and warned it will file suits if the celebrities continue their association.
- On Thursday, the Telangana Cricket Association issued legal notices to actors Vijay Deverakonda and Venkatesh Daggubati, along with cricketers Mohammed Siraj, Ambati Rayudu, and Tilak Varma, over their endorsement of the "unapproved" TG20 League.
- The dispute stems from the Hyderabad Cricket Association's alleged refusal to implement a 2021 BCCI directive requiring collaboration with the TCA to develop cricket outside Hyderabad city.
- TCA General Secretary Gurava Reddy alleged the HCA lacks legal authority to organize this franchise-based league, citing non-compliance with BCCI constitution rules 28 and 30 regarding governance.
- Reddy warned that the TCA will file legal suits against the celebrities if they continue associating with the league, which he claims the HCA uses to misguide stakeholders.
- The Bombay High Court is scheduled to hold final proceedings during the first week of July, while over 20,000 registered cricketers await formal BCCI recognition.
