Hyderabad Teen Injured In Chaotic India vs Australia Match Ticket Sales
NDTV
Media reports said the rush for tickets is because Hyderabad is hosting an international cricket match after over two years.
A young woman in Telangana who stood in queue to buy tickets for a cricket match was injured after getting caught in a stampede-like situation on Thursday.
19-year-old Syed Alia, a resident of Trimulgherry in Secunderabad, had queued up at the Gymkhana grounds to buy offline tickets for the India-Australia T20 cricket match. Immediately after the gate opened to start ticket sales, fans rushed at once as it was raining, causing a chaotic stampede-like situation.
Syed Alia fell down and had to be shifted to Yashoda Hospital with flesh wounds and internal injuries. She also has blood clots in her eyes and scratches on the side of her face.
Syed Alia's mother has said the hospital officials demanded advance deposits for further treatment.
