Social media had been abuzz on Saturday after a Facebook fan page post declared the former Black Cap had died.
McCullum, . . , took to Twitter to deny the news. “ I am alive and kicking more than ever before,” he tweeted along with a picture of the tweet with the fake news.
“ Not sure where this news has come from, but this is fake. Love you all.” Earlier, Nathan’s brother Brendon vowed to find the person responsible for the fake news.
“ Tonight someone decided, via social media to release that my brother passed away! I’m on a flight back to NZ and my heart broke! None of it is true! Whoever put this out there, I’ll find you! Somewhere, somehow,” the former New Zealand captain tweeted.
