New Delhi: Veteran industrialist and former Tata Group Chairman Ratan Tata on Monday clarified that he has not announced any reward for Afghanistan cricketer Rashid Khan.

Please do not believe WhatsApp forwards and videos of such nature unless they come from my official platforms," Tata has tweeted.
