The Telangana Cricket Association is a cricket administration organisation in the Indian state of Telangana. It want to be the governing body of cricket sport in Telangana state.[1] Its headquarters is situated in Somajiguda.[2]
TCA was founded in 2015 after Andhra Pradesh state got bifurcated and Telangana state came into existence. TCA alleg that Hyderabad cricket association (HCA) only concentrate on cricket development in Hyderabad city and ignore players from outside the city, from tens of districts. Due to it cricket is underdeveloped in districts and players don not get opportunity to play in Hyderabad cricket team.
