Karachi: In a development evening, the output of the
Pakistan team to India for the T20 World Cup 2016 has been put on hold by the
Pakistan Cricket Board.
PCB chairman Shaharyar Khan said that the Interior Ministry
will decide on Wednesday the team's departure for India. "Interior
Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan after going through the briefing of the
security delegation is in India we will know the future plans and exit of
equipment," he said.
The Pakistan team was scheduled to depart at noon on
Wednesday Lahore from New Delhi, but also some players confirmed to PTI had
said this plan was put on hold.
Another official of the Board confirmed that Shaharyar after
discussions with the Interior Ministry had informed the Board of Control for
Cricket in India that the Pakistani government has advised the team against
playing in Dharamsala. "The PCB has asked the BCCI and the ICC to change
the party March 19 with India Dharamsala to any of Calcutta or Mohali," he
said.
The official said the BCCI had told the PCB that Mohali
would not be the alternative site from Pakistan and was playing two games there
and that could well be Calcutta or New Delhi or.
"The BCCI also has a problem of staging the match in
New Delhi due to court orders," the official said. (ICC confidence in
India and Pakistan Party)
Another source in the PCB told PTI that the security
delegation that went to India, including Dharamsala to inspect security
measures for the Pakistan team had raised three main objections in its feedback
to the Interior Ministry.
"An objection was that only officials of government
security and low-grade met with them in Dharamsala and they are not satisfied
with the security plans established for the Pakistan team in case if there is a
protest against the team" said the source.
"Another objection is that they were not given any
clear plan for the safety of Pakistani media and fans who will go to India for
the event," he said.
