Australia’s newspapers have claimed that the Australian cricket team’s tour of Pakistan has been cancelled. However, if the ICC investigates the security arrangements in Pakistan through independent sources then there may be any chance of the tour.
The Australian cricket team’s tour of Pakistan has become doubtful after the recent wave of terrorism in Pakistan.
The Aussie press claims that the security situation in Pakistan has not been improved and the tour is not possible in such situation.
Australian newspaper ‘Sydney Morning Herald’ claimed that the series against Paksitan has been cancelled but if it is held at any neutral venue then Australia can play. However, a formal proposal in this regard is being awaited from the Pakistan Cricket Board.
On the other hand, another Australian newspaper said that the Australian team’s tour of Pakistan is not possible due to deteriorating security situation of Pakistan.
However, if the ICC investigates the security in Pakistan through independent sources then in case of a positive decision the tour can be considered.
The newspaper said that due to security situation in Pakistan the Australian government is advising all its citizens not to go to Pakistan.
The paper said that the Australian consulates in Lahore and Karachi, which are the venues of the scheduled matches, have been closed as these cities are also facing terrorism.
However, PCB media director Sohail Mansoor has officially contradicted the news of the cancellation of the tour.
