The West Indies' tour of India is shrouded in confusion after conflicting statements from the teams' boards.

India's board said it was "shocked and extremely disappointed"  after being told by its counterpart that West Indies would be leaving the tour after Friday's fourth one-day international.

But the West Indies' board has denied making a decision to pull out.
The teams were scheduled to play one more ODI, a one-off Twenty20 international and three Test matches.

India have already lined up Sri Lanka as a replacement opponent in a five-match one-day series.

The question is: did Richie consult or receive the WICB's approval to send out this email to the BCCI? Does not seem so because WICB is now saying that it did not call off the tour.

It is one thing to side with the players but Richie, Lloyd and the others are simply employees of the WICB. they have a duty to reflect the WICB's position...not their own or that of the players.

I give up ,this is hopeless!
