BCCI backs Pakistan
LONDON: As South Africa announced its decision to withdraw from next month’s Champions Trophy on Friday, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) backed Pakistan.
“We are firmly behind Pakistan,” Niranjan Shah, Secretary BCCI, said. “I think it all depends on Pakistan and what they have to say on the security issue.
“If Pakistan says the country is safe to play in and the tournament can be held on schedule, they have our support,” he added.—AP
