The Indian cricket board made it clear on Thursday that there is absolutely "no threat" to India's ongoing home series against West Indies despite an acrimonious pay dispute between the visiting cricketers and its parent body which is yet to be resolved.

T want to clarify that there is no threat to the India versus West Indies series. The matches will go on as per schedule. In fact, I have spoken to a few officials from the WICB and have got assurance that there will be no disruption", secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) Sanjay Patel told PTI.

“I got an e-mail from WICB chairman Dave Cameron, who thanked BCCI for playing a proactive role," he said.

Patel said that the BCCI will be happy to help the WICB as a "mediator" once the series ends.
