Oriental Insurance jacks up cover for Indo-Pak cricket Tests

The attack and damage of the Board of Control for Cricket in India's office in Bombay will jack up the insurance money of Test matches.

L S Dias, development officer of Oriental Insurance Company Limited, said on Monday that it will be in the region of Rs 50 million to Rs 60 million per Test.

Dias was present during the attack but said, "I did not lose my nerve. On the contrary, I challenged and told them that they were indulging in this shameless act only because they were more in numbers."

He was in the BCCI office in connection with insurance of the forthcoming controversy-ridden Pakistan cricket team's tour of India.
