Celebrity cricket team Kerala Strikers struck off plane in Kochi

Thiruvananthapuram, Feb 21: In a shocking and shameful incident, a team of celebrity cricketers was asked to get off the flight for allegedly misbehaving with the crew.

The celebrity team - Kerala Strikers - is one of the teams in a non-professional Celebrity Cricket League that comprises of actors and celebrities representing Kerala.

28 members of the team were asked to get off a Hyderabad-bound Indigo flight at the Cochin airport, after some comments that they reportedly made during the security demonstration.

The pilot reportedly refused to fly unless the team got off the plane, after the crew complained about the incident. The flight was delayed by an hour and a half and took off by 2.30 pm.

The team finally left on the 4:30 pm flight, reportedly after buying new tickets.
