A light plane crashed some 200 metres from where Australia's world champion cricketers were practising on Saturday.

The single-propeller aircraft appeared to lose control in strong winds near the Arnos Vale sports ground on the island of St Vincent and crashed into a small river.

The pilot and three passengers emerged from the stricken plane, eye witnesses said.

The Australians were conducting their first official training session since arriving for the tournament that opens on March 11.
