Mumbai (PTI) Deccan Chargers today threatened to sue the Indian Premier League authorities and skip the third edition of the Twenty20 league beginning next month if its home matches are not re-allotted to Hyderabad and Vishakapatnam.

Lashing out at the IPL Governing Council’s “unilateral” decision — because of the ongoing Telengana agitation — to shift the matches to Navi Mumbai and Nagpur, Deccan Chargers chairman V Shankar told PTI that the Hyderabad-based franchisee would move the court if its demand is not met by the IPL governing council which meets on March 12.
“The IPL has taken a unilateral decision to shift all our home matches out of Andhra Pradesh though Chief Minister K Rosiah, Sports Minister K Venkat Reddy and the DGP have assured us full protection in the conduct of these matches,” Shankar said.
