PCB defends hosting rights
RAWALPINDI: Pakistan's hosting of the Champions Trophy should be beyond dispute because it has met all the security needs of competing teams, the Pakistan Cricket Board's senior official said Wednesday.
“If it's a battle of legality and logic, we have won it,” the PCB's Chief Operating Officer Shafqat Naghmi told the Associated Press.
Naghmi said Pakistan had offered foolproof security to all the participating teams of the Champions Trophy and neutral security officials had toured Pakistan during the last two months.
“But if still they say that they have reservations, what can we do?” Naghmi said.—AP
