The West Indies cricket team is facing a tough time in India, as they continue to remain stranded in the country after exiting the T20 World Cup 2026. According to the latest report on Friday (Mar 7), the West Indies team and its supporting staff are still in India, almost a week after their exit from the T20 World Cup 2026. On the contrary, it is also reported that an alternative flight to London was also an option, but no progress has been made on that front, with tension in West Asian nations growing after the USA and Israel’s attack on Iran.

Last week, Zimbabwe were due to leave for their homeland on Monday (Mar 2) in batches, but that was delayed as well. Players were booked in batches to leave, first for Dubai and then for Harare. However, amid the tensions after the USA and Israel’s attack on Iran, all major airports and airlines have discontinued their services until the situation is eased.
It is also reported that four West Indies players are likely to stay in India as they will play in the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Few teams will start their camp as early as Mar 15 before the season starts on 29 March.
