With just a day remaining before the start of the World Cup, some of the seats at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium are in horrible shape. With bird litter splattered all over the seats, it presents a poor picture for the fans who will travel to the stadium to watch 3 crucial World Cup games.
A total of three matches are slated to be held at Hyderabad. But the sorry state of the seats at the Uppal Stadium can cause a massive headache for the BCCI. With poor sitting conditions and bird litter scattered all over the seats, it is a huge problem for the stadium management and fans.
With just 2 days remaining, the stadium staff will have to turn their focus on cleaning the seats and making them habitable for fans to sit and enjoy the matches.
Hyderabad apart from hosting the three World Cup matches has also hosted 2 World Cup warm-up matches. These poor seating conditions have reportedly brought out the rage of the fans who are blaming Jay Shah for the poor condition of the stadiums.
