Firstpost Sri Lanka Players Scared After Islamabad Blast, Players To Leave? | First Sports With Rupha Ramani

The Pakistan V Sri Lanka series is just one match old, but tensions are already boiling over. A deadly suicide bombing in Islamabad — barely 17 kilometres from where the teams are staying — has once again raised fears that Pakistan remains unsafe for international cricket. Sri Lankan players, haunted by the memories of the 2009 Lahore terror attack, wanted to fly back home, but their board has instructed them to stay and “honour commitments.” Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) Chairman and Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi insists the situation is under control. The question remains: at what cost? How long will Pakistan continue to host cricket under the shadow of fear and fragile security? Rupha Ramani dissects the politics, the trauma, and the uncomfortable truth about Pakistan’s credibility as a cricketing nation and host.
