Bangladesh Cricket team is to tour Pakistan - What is the hold

Bangladesh cricket team is to tour Pakistan


Ever since the attacks on Sri Lankan Cricket team in Pakistan, there were not any international cricket matches held in Pakistan. But after nearly three years, Bangladesh Cricket board agreed to tour Pakistan. 

They will be playing two cricket matches. 

1) April 29th - ODI
2) April 30th - t20

In the meantime international cricket council (ICC) has requested Pakistan Cricket board (PCB) to provide with a comprehensive security plan report. This is to ensure the safety of the Players.

But as we analyze, there are few reasons behind this cricket match which is highly risky after what happened to Sri Lankan Cricket team in may 2009. 

1) Firstly Pakistan want to make an impression that security is good enough with their country to conduct international cricket matches. 

2) Only country they can ask to visit them is Bangladesh as other countries will strictly deny it. 

Pakistan's security is concern



But why Bangladesh agreed to tour Pakistan? What is the hold? The hold is in Bangladesh Premier league  (BPL). Pakistan apparently hinted that if Bangladesh is not going to tour them, they whey won't be allowing Pakistan players to play in BPL. 

So Bangladesh had a make a decision and to save Pakistan Players from BPL, they agreed to tour Pakistan. They took a great risk. What is your idea? Do you this it is safe enough for Bangladesh is to tour Pakistan
