All 10 Sri Lankan players refuse to travel to Pakistan

Interestingly everybody is assuming the tour would still go on with the 2nd string.  The 2nd stringers have a life too.  They have wives, kids, mothers and fathers.  I am sure some of them will think about their own family,  before saying yes to the tour.  Won't be surprised if even the 2nd stringers drop off as well

Good on these players and their families.  

 

SLCB looks to have succumbed to Chinese pressure to agree to tour. Players obviously were not on board. PCB will now try to offer more cash to some of these players and lure them to tour. 

It would be stupid of players to fall for money.  All players make decently good money.  No money is worth your life.

You want to go, go there to play and support, if you really believe that Pakistan is a safe place to play.

Don't go there for money.

Poor on SLC to arrange this tour in Pak. They should arrange it in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. It seems they think SL players' lives are cheaper than Aus or NZ players'. Pak posters who post nothing will happen to them should think about what happened to them last time when SL team was there. They had presidential security back then. Either the security was sh1t or the terrorists are more crafty than what Pak posters like to admit. Pak posters who think they are making a fuss should put themselves in those SL players' shoes

I don't understand why the sri Lankan board keeps trying to arrange tour in Pak. Particularly if their own players dont want to tour.Are they bribed? 

Of course they are bribed, PCB paid each player 30K USD or more to play some lousy exhibition matches.

They must have paid that to SL board .

SLC is a slimy board. They know their players don't feel safe going there, yet, for money, they are willing to endanger them. 

 

They are now trying to coerce some of their players into going by denying them NOC for the CPL just because they don't want to endanger themselves.

Poor players are held financial hostages. :((
