The Indian Government said adequate security measures had been put in place for the visiting Australian cricket team.

"Every time a foreign cricket team visits India, appropriate security arrangements are made. This time also concerned authorities will make all necessary arrangments.

"If there is any particular request anywhere, that also will be looked into and taken care of," Home Ministry spokesman Onkar Kedia said in a statement.

The Australian cricket team arrived in the country on Monday and will be playing four Tests at Bangalore, Mohali, Delhi and Nagpur. The first match will begin on October nine.

Besides this, the visiting team would play practice matches at Jaipur and Hyderabad.
