Bangladesh were set to be the first international team to play in Pakistan after three years. -File Photo
DHAKA: The Bangladesh high court on Thursday ordered the national team's upcoming tour of Pakistan to be postponed for at least four weeks due to security fears.
Bangladesh were set to play a 50-over game and a Twenty20 international on April 29 and 30 in Lahore, the first international cricket matches in the troubled country for three years.
But Additional Attorney General M.K. Rahman told AFP that the high court in Dhaka had ordered Bangladesh's cricket authorities to explain why the tour was scheduled to go ahead despite concerns over the team's safety.
“It asked the cricket board to explain in the next four weeks. During the four weeks, the court imposed an injunction on the cricket team's tour to Pakistan,” he said.
Bangladesh would be the first team to visit Pakistan since a militant attack on the Sri Lankan team bus during the Lahore Test in 2009, when eight people died and seven visiting players and an assistant coach were injured.
The high court gave the order following a petition by a lawyer and a university teacher.
Pakistani political leaders, players and fans had welcomed the planned tour, but in Bangladesh concern over the visit has grown since it was announced on Sunday.
“We told the court that the Pakistan tour would risk the lives of our cricketers,” Hassan Azim, lawyer for the two petitioners, told AFP.
“Pakistan is not a safe place for an international sports event. No other international teams are travelling to Pakistan. Why should Bangladesh go? The decision was imposed on the cricketers.”
The petitioner also said that Pakistan's own media did not think it was safe for international tours.
Bangladesh's coach Stuart Law, from Australia, this week expressed fears about the team's schedule.
“It's got to be made sure by the two associating boards that everyone is 100 percent safe to go,” he said.
“I have spent time with the players and everyone is a bit concerned.”
Law declined to confirm if he would go on the tour, while Bangladesh's cricket authorities said they were seeking clearance from the International Cricket Council (ICC).
Foreign teams shunned Pakistan after the 2009 attacks, forcing them to play their home series on neutral venues, mostly in the United Arab Emirates.
PCB released a strongly-worded statement voicing their fury at the postponement of the Bangladesh tour.
“It is astonishing to note that a matter lacking any legal issue has been dragged in the court by petitioners who appear to have vested interest and want to jeopardise Pakistan-Bangladesh cricketing relations,” the statement said.
“It is extremely disturbing to note for the PCB and Pakistan cricket fans and world cricketing nations that such an adverse order has been passed to block a bilateral cricket series.”
Pakistan had hoped the tour would encourage other foreign teams to visit and ultimately pave the way to a full resumption of home international series.
Former Pakistan coach Mohsin Khan said he thought the postponement was strange.
“During this whole period I thought there was uncertainty but this postponement will definitely hurt Pakistan's sincere efforts to revive cricket in Pakistan,” Khan told AFP.
PCB chief operating officer Subhan Ahmed agreed the postponement would damage Pakistan's attempts to revive home internationals and leave a gap in the team's calendar.
“We do not have any alternate plans because teams are busy in international cricket and we cannot arrange any team in such a short trip,” said Ahmed, still hoping Bangladesh can tour after the court case.
The Federation of International Cricketers' Associations (FICA) called for an independent report on the security situation in Pakistan.
“What's required is not a stumbling, non-transparent and conflicted approach to this issue, but a proper, fully transparent, independent report on the safety of playing in the country,” Tim May, chief executive of the body which represents international cricketers, said in a statement.
“Only then will players feel comfortable contemplating whether it is time to play international cricket again in Pakistan.”

I am glad that Bangladesh has seen sense. Until Pakistan releases the report on the attack on the Sri Lankan team and holds the police (who were going to provide the promised "President-level security" accountable, no foreign team should visit Pakistan. If the Bangladeshis came, they could have been attacked by groups wanting attention, and the PCB would have been looking for excuses. "It wasn't our fault," BCB said after the Sri Lankan incident. "The police should have provided the security."
A relatively small group of people is turning Pakistan into a lawless and uncivilized place. Until we Pakistanis recognize this and deal with them, no outsider should risk his/her life.

When he himself stood in parliment and promised to drive his own car and only one other security vehicle or so? I rather wait for the security of my Pakistani brothers and sisters before we propagate security of visiting brothers from BD. God forbid if any other such incident as it happened with Sri Lankan team, were to occur then we would credibility of hosting safe cricket for much longer period of time if not forever.

Pakistan had to submit a complete plan of security to ICC but they didn't do that yet. in this overall circumstances, how can we feel safe to send our players there? .

I want to take a different SPIN on why there is no International Circket in Pakistan. My idea might sound little FILMI, but it is not far fetched.
Let's say I am 'Dubai' and have spend millions and millions of dollars on cricket stadiums and other entertainment stuff, my economy is NOT doing good, the international work force that was here working for me are leaving me as there are no jobs, etc, etc.
Live matches are very lucrative business especially Cricket with almost 2 billion people watching it. With TV rights, tickets, advertisements and betting, I can rack in millions and millions of dollars - PER GAME.
How do I turn things around so that I, Dubai, can make some money.
Well how about have cricket matches here in my country of Dubai, but wait, I don't have a team of my own, how the hell am I going to have matches here.
Only if I can get someone else to play here... who ummmm, how about Pakistan, but how....
well I have an idea, how about NO ONE plays with Pakistan IN Pakistan, good idea, but how do I make it happen....
Security - Biggest concerns of all.
If I were to make security the first and foremost reason for international teams, no one would play with Pakistan in Pakistan.
Problem Solved.

While 'waiting' for a foreign tour to happen, the Pakistan government should spend some time in nabbing the people who attacked the Sri Lankan cricket team in broad daylight. Attacks and isolated instances happen everywhere in the world, but do the perpetrators go scott-free EVERY time? If this goes on, it would soon be hard to stage local matches, forget about international ones. Try staging a local match in Quetta for example.

Saurav, firstly, apart from cricket there are international sports going on in Pakistan, such a world snooker championship, hockey, etc. where international teams are coming. This is only in cricket where ICC is not even trying to revive cricket in Pakistan.
In your response to murders and other criminal activity: there are more murders in Detroit, Michigan, than any city in Pakistan. For goodness sake, do you think a rapist or murder will do their stuff during a cricket match? Bangladesh had that mutiny after which Pakistan sent their team there, there are bombs going on in Jaipur and Bangalore, WHILE THE GAME WAS BEING PLAYED, yet the IPL was good enough to close that chapter. Why single out Pakistan?
I was in Pakistan last month, and had a trip of my life. Situation is much better now. I appeal to the world to send their teams there as people are super crazy about cricket.

Resilient Pakistan
Pakistan will emerge even a stronger team in the coming days, but very soon, BD will rue it's decision, of cheating Pakistan in such an unbecoming manner. BD should have had the guts, in the first place to say no, rather than backing out at the eleventh hour.
There was no need for such an intrigue in saying no for the tour. BD had been toeing the line of Indian lobby, without realizing how they are treated like minions by them. BD has not been ever invited by India for a cricket series, since they got Test status, that too, courtesy Pakistan.
Any way, we still wish good luck to BD.

I think we are taking this too seriously. We have always won easily against ordinary Bdesh and after one tight match in Asia Cup (which we won) they think if they are a world class team :).
Pakistan is a safe place to safe cricket but perception is greater than reality and we have to improve this image. All the open enemies and hidden enemies (e.g. bdesh) will try their best to use the situation to demotivate us.
We need to get rid of this corrupt Govt to get rid of this so called war imposed by america and then image will improve as well. In the meantime PCB should put more efforts to improve domestic cricket events and I am sure a match between LHR and KHI is more exciting than watching Pak vs Bdesh.
Our telented players are performing against all odds and Inshallah they will keep winning future matches as well.

you can show all your anger and hatred toward BD, but the fact still remains the same. So wake up and face the reality. You cant even provide proper security to your own people and you expect foreigners to visit just to bring back cricket to your country. At what cost? Nothing is more precious then lives. You guys are even having trouble between your fed govt and local govt abt providing security. That just proves what kind of security measure are being taken. Anyways nothing against pakistan, but life is too precious to risk for a game of cricket. Btw the decision about tour was taken by our selfish president alone not by the cricketing board. Now he is in trouble. Hopefully he gets kicked out soon.

This is true that Pakistan is currently not a safe venue for any sporting event and Bangladesh has every right to review their decision. But come on be realistic. This 'yes and no' game by Bangladesh is just not about safety and cricket. Government of Pakistan, Zaka Ashraf, and people of Pakistan need to understand the fact that Bangladesh can not be considered a friendly country. There are many examples but one recent incident would be enough to show that Bangladesh has been playing this 'first yes then no' game with Pakistan a bit often. In Nov 2011, despite it's assurance to Pakistan earlier that it would support, Bangladesh was the only country to block EU tariff concessions to Pakistan at the last moment. Even India who initially opposed the deal later decided to support it.
The point is clear, Pakistan should recognize the pattern of backstabbing by Bangladesh and stop begging them. Instead wait and be prepared to reciprocate the back stabbing when there is an opportunity.

Good decision by Bangladesh! We should take a lesson from Bangladesh how concerned they are for their teams or their own people, whereas everyday hundreds of people are dying in Pakistan from bombings, drones, target killings, robbery, flood, load-shedding, strikes in hospitals by nurses, police excessess, extra judicial killings, killings in the name of shias, killing in gilgit baltistan, sri-lankan cricket team attack and endless which keeps on......and none of our leaders even bother to straighten things up. Even our own people fear for thier safety where they cant wear jewellery at public places due to snatching, cant take cell phones due to snatching, cant ride expensive cars due to snatching, cant keep wealth at home due to robbery...so how can we guarantee other people security.
Did we catch the attackers of Sri-Lankar team....Please Pakistan grow up. Pakistani citizens like me dont want to come to Pakistan so how can you expect other people to come to your country. And for Bangladesh, it was a good performance in Asia Cup Final where you won against India and gave a tough fight to Pakistan. Keep it up and may you prosper as a nation, not like Pakistan which is a failed state!

Everyone who watched the Asia cup final agreed that Pakistan won the game but Bangladesh won the hearts of the people!

Where there is a will, there is definitely a way. In this case, there is no real will from the Bangladeshi cricket team to travel to the 'land of the pure' in order to play cricket for various reasons. So even all the possible and logical ways are also deliberately being cut off by them.
No problem, sooner or later an international test playing cricket team will have to visit Pakistan and play with its national team. One can't deny the fact for too long. Historical data proves it but only for those who have the wisdom, knowledge, education and know how to know it.

This has been a GREAT display of feelings, in response to this news report. I wonder how quickly we all change our expressions. Bangladesh, team and people sure expect security (and justifiably demand guarantee), which the government and people of Pakistan cannot provide at the moment. Bangladesh Cricket Board has certainly hurt the feelings of Pakistani public by first agreeing the tour and then ditching at eleventh hour. This is shear case of bad planning, non-professional management and morally unethical (or you say, this is not cricket). People of the two countries should not start a war of words and engage in mud slinging, rather work for mutual benefit and come up with solution. Politicians of both countries should start working toward friendship rather old enemosties. If Indian, Pakistani or Bangladeshi politicians are thriving, they are only on the crops of hate for other
countries. We all, living in Europe and North America, know this hate is not fetching anything but hate. We have cricket teams with people from all four cricket playing nations.
Let there be tolerance and develop some sense to know other side's point of view. We all should pray for a peaceful Pakistan and work for it.

Security in BD is dependent on floods. If the floods come, they drown the population, if they don't come, there is food shortage. Millions die in any case every year. And you think the security situation is bad in Pakistan, where at least your cricketers will get food.

Ahmed - accidents happen anytime, anywhere, any country (including Pakistan). They are not usually planned by someone intentionally to cause human loss. I'd still take a ferry (taking the name of Almighty) in BD if I can't afford flying and that's the only means of travelling.
However, when a Cricket Board is thinking about sending their boys to another country where there are fundamentalist groups intentionally targeting their own innocent people, leaders etc. regularly, then they definitely have rights just to say NO to the invite.
Pakistan should first keep their own people & leaders first before inviting guests to play in their country.

We are obliged to Sri-Lanka when they came last and as a nation we let them down inspite of all our guarantees for their safety. The Traitors in our midst resposible for the attack on Sri-Lanka have not been brought to book. It is just not right to ask Bangladesh to come and face the risk.

Friends, being a Bangladeshi, I urge you not to make offensive comments to each other... I understand Pakistani cricket-lovers feelings after BD High-Court postponement order, but you should also understand feelings of Bangladeshi cricket fans... In Bangladesh, there are mixed feelings regarding visiting/not visiting Pakistan [mainly because of the security situations, and memories from ‘71]... You know, when Bangladesh was not that much prominent in the cricket world [say 20 years back], people of Bangladesh used to be great fan of Pakistan/Indian Cricket Team... As we are neighbour, share similar culture [atleast 60%], we should not divide ourselves for such a silly matter ...

Such an irony that the country which founded this block back in the 80's and 90's is now suffering at its hands. People who are harping over security situation in Pakistan should remember that the world didn't abondon Germany when Israeli athletes were slaughtered in Munich Olympics or when bomb blasts killed people in Atlanta just before the Olympics, its time such as these where you realize tha who is your friend and who is your adversary. India and Bangladesh are not first world countries either, they too live in the same part of the world with their share of bomb blasts and terror activities during major sporting events but I can tell you Pakistanis won't forget what you're doing to our cricket. Sri Lankans are also not touring Pakistan anytime soon but the reason they are more respected here is becaue that despite facing those bullets they are the biggest support Pakistan have in this so-called 'asian block' today and you would NEVER find a Sri Lankan crying over that sorry incident in 2009 as other fellow asian nations do.

Indian politicians did their best to eliminate Pakistan's name from cricket and what the Indian people got, worst performance and tour results. So, "whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap". Had there been a favourable Asia, there would have great teams.
Pakistan's current situation is something prevailing for years, it was not any better when BD agreed to visit. Pesonally I would not suggest BD team to
take risk on their lives but calling off like this shows lack in character.
If a visiting team is rock pelted by fans, accidently or fired bullets by terrorists, both are actions to be condemned. Let there be positive and creative discussions no mud-slinging.

PCB should start short time Tri nation T20 match inviting either junior Players or Sr.player who realy serious to visiI to play T20 from INDIA BanglaDesh & Sri Lnaka. I am sure JR. player will not hesitate to come pakistan to play T20 match.Some of them might be vary new to Pakistan. Once such series will go through successfully then Invite another similar players from Other nation such as Australia, New Zealand, & west Indies etc.
Slowly Slowly the fear will disappear and Pakistan will get their reputation back.
The Duration of T20 match will be very Short for 3 to 5 Days and Pakistan can easily convince the respected Cricket Board to send their Players who really wants to enjoy the cricket.
I am sure this type of alternative approach will bring favourable result in game of cricket and people of Pakistan will enjoy the cricket.

Are you concerned with game or "black patches" in history. Why are all these nations competing in playgrounds when they have histories of mass massacre. India-Pakistan partition, Jalianwala Bagh, South African apartheid history. We try to forget and build what is good.

Idea is GREAT!
But what is the advantage in tournaments of Junior players ?
Is it easy to protect kids? Shove them under the bus seats or hide them under the hotel beds. Risk for life is same for young and old.
Unless there is safe haven, no game is possible.
Mind that, there is no cricket when there is a shower of water, let alone when it is bullets instead of water.

If you will go to play with Australia in independent venue then why you want to play with Bangladesh in your country. Your country do not able to give security to your people, and we expect that you will give our player security. I think it's a right decision of our court. JAY BANGLA.

No. 1 or Minnows. The issue is not the superiority. Issue is Pakistan NOT safe for open events like cricket. But this situation is not new and BD Cricket or Courts should have realised much earlier not at the eve of the event.

Shehzad do not get offended, I am on your side. BUT losing 95% of cricket matches played in the recent past does NOT at all ENTITLES anybody to commit something to LOSE his life.
Currently, situation in Pakistan is not suitable for some open-air, mass population events, where high-risk guests are performing.
All we need is to pray, wish, wait, hope or else for the things to get better and then invite anybody. Personally, I will clean my house before inviting any guests.
And what WE did was in peace-time and safe environment. We all will do the same again, God speed, very soon.
