A plane carrying members of the Australian and Indian cricket teams made an emergency landing in western India on Monday after it was hit by a bird, officials said.
”Both the teams are safe,” airport director SM Borkar told reporters.
The Australian team were to board another flight later in the day, officials said.
The players were on their way from Nagpur, in India’s western Maharashtra state, to the state capital, Mumbai.
The teams clash for their seventh one-day international in Mumbai on Wednesday.
Australia won the sixth match in Nagpur on Sunday, clinching the series 4-1, with one match rained out. — Sapa-AFP
