Pakistan minister claims threatening email sent to New Zealand cricket team was from India

New Zealand cricket team called off their first tour of Pakistan after 18 years last Friday due to a security threat to the team. The BlackCaps had arrived in Rawalpindi and were training before the pull-out hours before the series opener.

Pakistan on Wednesday alleged that a threatening email was sent to the New Zealand cricket squad from India, which prompted the Kiwis to call off a tour of the country.

New Zealand called off their first tour of Pakistan after 18 years last Friday due to a security threat to the team, followed by a decision by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) on Monday to cancel a bilateral series scheduled for next month in Pakistan.
