The Indian cricket team will not be touring Pakistan early next year but one of the major reasons, apart from the Indian government’s stance in the wake of the Mumbai attacks, was the Pakistan Cricket Board’s unwillingness to guarantee the safety of the players. The PCB had informally made it clear that the security situation in Pakistan was "unpredictable".
Well-placed sources said the Pakistan Board was simply unable to offer convincing arguments to hold the series and had, in fact, been quite candid in its appraisal of the security environment in Pakistan. "There does not seem any way in which security at any of the hotels or even venues can be considered foolproof. The PCB is not very keen on a tour," sources said.
Yet they want us to tour them ? And be a victims of terror on their land too.
