Photo / PhotosportSecurity around the White Ferns has been boosted in England after a 'not credible' threat was emailed to England Cricket relating to New Zealand Cricket. New Zealand Cricket made the call to cancel the tour just minutes before the first ODI in Rawalpindi, following intelligence of a security threat targeting the Black Caps. Although this did not specifically reference the White Ferns it was treated seriously, investigated, and deemed not credible," a NZC statement said. "The White Ferns have now arrived in Leicester and, as a precaution, security around them has been boosted. "It was a direct threat and it was a credible threat - they made the right decision," Ardern added.
