West Midlands Police: The Indian men's cricket team is fine despite being confined to their hotel rooms for a few hours following instructions by local police, who investigated the presence of an unattended parcel in the vicinity.

The team had returned to its hotel after a practice session on the eve of the second Test match to be played at Edgbaston when the players were asked not to venture out because of reports of the presence of a suspicious parcel.

"Everything is fine," a team spokesperson informed IANS in response to a message.
