Australian Cricket Tour to Pakistan is in danger as Australian team and officials are worried about the current security threats. We Pakistani always love to watch Australian cricketer in action on our homeland but I think we may not be able to to see them in action this time. They'll be given VIP protocols, though. Our government says they'll be safe and sound here. I need all of the mylotters to raise voice for the tour so that Australians come and play against our team... I'm looking forward to seeing them in action on our homeland soon...

Pakistan is undergoing a turmoil - a sort of civil war and the authorities are not able to manage it. It is not only Australians, it is risky for any country to go and play in Pakistan at present. However, pakistani cricket authorities should try to send the team to various countries all over the world, so that the talents of their youth are not wasted.

We are not facing any civil war. It's only media's propaganda. I admit there are some problems we are facing presently but it can not be called civil war. Every country is facing these problems these days. Furthermore, Zimbabwe team has recently visited Pakistan. They were satisfied the way their security arrangements were done.

well...pakistan vs australia will be good series to watch, pakistan in pakistan would be difficult to beat,but the aussies will not give up easily....
australians are too much worried about their security, hence this tour is in doubt....i think the australians should tour pakistan,as pcb declared that they will be given the enough security to the players....
the situation in pakistan has stabilized, zimbabwe has succesfully completed their tour, this is sufficient to prove that there are no threats to cricketers....
i think aussies will definitly tour ....at max some of their key players might step down....

I would also like to see the Australian cricket team playing here in Pakistan but the current scenario seems to be a little bit doubtful for this to happen.If Australian cricket board eventually decides to play here then I am not sure all the top players will be visiting Pakistan to play the series . Instead we get half new Australian team as opponents.This has happened in the past when NZ team visited Pakistan few years back.
