The Deccan Chargers (DC) were a franchise cricket team based in Hyderabad, India, that competed in the Indian Premier League (IPL), a professional Twenty20 cricket (T20) league in India. They were one of the nine teams that competed in the 2012 Indian Premier League, making their fifth appearance in all IPL tournaments. The team was captained by Kumar Sangakkara and coached by Darren Lehmann.[1]
The Deccan Chargers started their campaign by losing their opening fixture of the IPL on 7 April against the Chennai Super Kings and failed to qualify for playoffs finishing eighth in the group stage.[2][3] On 14 September 2012, the IPL governing council terminated the Deccan Chargers for breaching contract terms and put the Hyderabad franchise on auction.[4] The bid was won by the Sun TV Network and the team was renamed as the Sunrisers Hyderabad.[5][6]
