Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium: Former India captain Mohammad Azharuddin expressed his anguish over the Hyderabad Cricket Association (HCA) Ombudsman’s directive to remove his name from the North Stand at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium.

Speaking to IANS, the veteran batter said it is 'heartbreaking' and 'complete disgrace to the sport'.

"It pains me deeply to say this, but I sometimes regret having played cricket. It’s heartbreaking to see individuals with little to no understanding of the game now in positions to teach and lead. It’s a complete disgrace to the sport," he told IANS.
