It's quite funny when someone shies away from even mentioning a rival!
That is what is happening here in Hyderabad. With the Times of India!!
Have a look at these pages.. these are from the TOI epaper.
Did you by chance happen to find the term 'Deccan Chargers' anywhere
on these pages/articles?
So what if the team is owned by its rival in the newspaper business
Deccan Chronicle? Does the team loose its identity? And does the team
represent Hyderabad? I was given to understand that it was to source
its players from Hyderabad, Andhra, Chattisgarh and Orissa. So why
this differentiation?

Really weird stuff!!i dunno why does TOI have to act so childish. After all the team does represent Hyd!! May be they seem to hav forgotten that.
This is seriously sooooo weird. I had never expected such a thing from TOI. I really like the newspaper and we get hat only at home. But this so immature of them to not mention a team's name at all.
A big bleh to such a behavior. they are in desperate need to Grow up guys.
SRK always present.
Well, Nothing new for TOI. :)
That's one city they are yet to crack.
I recently heard Melinda Gates was not allowed by Bill Gates to own an iPod by Bill Gates!!!!
Interesting though!!!
Deccan Chargers are doing well and are top 2 on ladder, but one thing they are definitely winning is the Best Cheerleading squad :D:D:D:D
