There has been much talk about Australia having reservations on touring Pakistan. where is all this coming from? Security in Pakistan has improved alot since the new Government took over. There are people in Australia who have never visited Pakistan, yet they are the first to comment on the security situation. Pakistan has an Australian Coach if they have not noticed. If Australia want to boycott, i suggest let them, as they know that they are beatable. How long will they boycott Pakistan. If India (who is the new financial heavy weight) does not have an issue touring Pakistan, why would other countries have an issue. Also, i have been reading that Sri Lanka is the backup venu of the tournamnet does not go ahead in Pakistan. Isn't there a Civil War in Sri Lanka. Aussies are willing to tour a county where bombs are going off in the Capital on a regular basis, as compared to Pakustan where things have calmed down since Feb. This is just Australia trying to get attention, as they know that their dominance over cricket is coming to an end.
