Bangladesh turns down Pakistan tour

Published March 31, 2017 Updated March 31, 2017 06:27am

pakistan-bangladesh-1024The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) has turned down the Pakistan Cricket Board’s (PCB) proposal for playing two Twenty20 (T20) internationals in Pakistan after ICC Champions Trophy.

According to Dhaka Tribune, the board has also rejected the PCB’s offer for compensation after Bangladesh refused to tour Pakistan amid security concerns.

Earlier this week, PCB chairman Shahryar Khan confirmed that the BCB had refused to tour Pakistan.

On Pakistan’s scheduled visit to Bangladesh in July, Khan had said, "We will now revisit that decision as Pakistan has already toured Bangladesh at least twice in the past.”

Meanwhile, BCB’s media and communications committee chairman Jalal Younus confirmed Geo News that the board has turned down the PCB’s proposals for the tour and compensation owing to security concerns.

The PCB is reportedly looking to bring the matter under discussion in the International Cricket Council’s (ICC) meeting next month.
