The message was immediately reported to the two cricket boards -PCB and CA, as well as the security agencies.
Cricket Australia (CA) and Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) investigated a death threat sent to all-rounder Ashton Agar on social media, said a report from 'The Sydney Morning Herald'. It also said that the threat was sent to Agar's wife Madeleine through a direct message on social media, saying that the all-rounder shouldn't go to Pakistan.
"A portion of the message reads: "This is a warning for your husband Ashton Agar if he comes to tour against Pakistan he won't come [back] alive." The message also references Agar's children, which he does not have," said the report.
It also said that the message came from a fake account on Instagram potentially hailing from India.
This person from Gujarat who's an Environmental Officer at IMC Limited posted insulting remarks about Ashton Agar and how Pakistan is gonna blow his head off etc. Already Cricket Australia and the Pakistani Cricket Board have release statements condemning these threats. pic.twitter.com/kGyIjgqECV
