West Indies senior men’s team’s departure from India, following their exit from the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup, has been delayed due to international airspace restrictions.
Cricket West Indies (CWI), in a release issued on Monday, stated that these restrictions are a direct result of security threats posed by military action in the Gulf Region. This situation has impacted several international flight routes, requiring airlines to adjust scheduled services for safety reasons.
The release added: “CWI is working closely with the International Cricket Council (ICC), relevant governmental authorities, and airline partners to secure the earliest possible safe travel arrangements for the squad and support staff. The safety and well-being of our players, coaches, and officials remain our highest priority.
”The team is currently accommodated in India and remains safe and well. We continue to monitor the situation closely and will provide further updates as confirmed travel arrangements are finalised.
”CWI appreciates the understanding and concern of our fans, families, and stakeholders during this time.”
