New Delhi, May 15 (IANS) The Indian cricket team's tour manager Ranjib Biswal and speedster Ashish Nehra Saturday presented contradictory versions of reports that the players were involved in a pub brawl in St Lucia after the team's disappointing exit from the World Twenty20.Biswal said the players had a minor 'argument' after being harassed by some fans in the pub.'It was nothing big. It was just a verbal talk. The boys had gone there for dinner and were harassed by Indian fans and there was some argument over that,' said Biswal.Nehra, on the other hand, denied any such incident.'I came to know about it only while reading the newspapers in London. I was surprised to see where this news came from. It is baseless.''We went to have dinner there and were watching the West Indies and Australia match. About the rest, I have no knowledge,' he said.'No one said anything to us. There were many fans from all over the world.'On team's performance, Nehra said: 'We are all disappointed. We had a good team and we could have done better. But it's a part of the game. The same team won World Cup two years ago.'
