India suspend tours to West Indies

India have suspended all future tours to the Caribbean following the West Indies' decision to withdraw from their visit to India last week.

The Windies left India after Friday's fourth one-day match because of a pay dispute between board and players.

India were scheduled to tour the Caribbean in February and March 2016.

However, a statement from the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) said all tours between the two countries "stand suspended".

The BCCI also announced it would take legal action against the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB).

India will now play a five-match one-day international series against Sri Lanka, starting on 2 November.

The West Indies quit their tour of India after a day of confusion and conflicting statements.

The BCCI first released a statement saying West Indies would be returning home at the conclusion of the fourth one-day international, which was already under way.

The WICB initially denied that but, after India won the match by 59 runs, Windies captain Dwayne Bravo said the tour had ended and all-rounder Darren Sammy tweeted:  "Honey I'm coming home."

There were still five matches scheduled - the fifth one-day international, a one-off Twenty20 international and three Tests.
