TCA Demands HCA Disclose TG20 League Audited Accounts and Financial Records

On 17 July 2026, Telangana Cricket Association (TCA) General Secretary D Guruva Reddy demanded the immediate disclosure of the audited accounts and financial records of the TG20 League from the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) in Hyderabad. Guruva Reddy urged the HCA to comply with Rule 37(2) of the Supreme Court-approved HCA and BCCI constitutions, which mandates transparency and public disclosure in cricket administration.

Guruva Reddy submitted a formal representation to Justice (Retd.) P Naveen Rao, the Chairman of the Single Member Committee (SMC) overseeing the HCA. Copies of the representation were also sent to the HCA Secretary, Interim CEO, Acting President, Treasurer, Joint Secretary, player representatives, and members of the TG20 Governing Council.

According to the TCA, Rule 37(2) explicitly requires cricket associations to publish audited financial records and key administrative documents on their official websites to ensure transparency. The TCA alleged that the HCA failed to answer its queries and did not comply with mandatory provisions under Rules 28 and 30.

As a result of these alleged violations, Guruva Reddy stated that the TCA is pursuing the implementation of Rule 31 against the HCA. He accused the association of misleading the public through false declarations, which he characterized as corruption, fraud, and a lack of public accountability.

The TCA has specifically requested the immediate publication of several key documents from the 2026 TG20 League. These include the league's balance sheets, financial statements, franchise agreements, sponsorship contracts, and revenue collections.

Additionally, the demand covers tender notices, procurement records, contract allocation details, and resolutions passed by the HCA General Body regarding the election of the TG20 Governing Council.

The TCA is also seeking proof of approvals obtained from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) 45 days prior to launching the league. According to the representation, the HCA's own statements indicated that the TG20 League had incurred losses of approximately Rs 15 crore by the midway stage of the tournament.
