No threat to Indian cricket team in West Indies

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Sunday denied any threat to the Indian cricket team, which is currently in West Indies.

There was a hoax message which was spread on social media, indicating security threat to the team. However, a BCCI source told ANI that there was no threat to the team.

"It was a hoax and all things are in order. The Indian team has been provided with an additional pilot vehicle and the Indian High Commission informed the Antigua government on the same just as a precautionary measure," the functionary explained.

India have already won both T20I and ODI series against West Indies. Both the teams will now compete in a two-match Test match series.

The first Test match between India and West Indies will start from August 22.
