PCB issued legal notice to ICC today (CricInfo) calling the decision to do so discriminatory and "legally flawed." Read the full report on CricInfo by Osman Samiuddin.

Full statement of Ijaz Butt, just released on CricInfo a while ago. Full text

(My question: Why are we calling out on this decision two weeks after? Shouldn't something immediately follow after the news was released?)

As you, the fan, come across the news and discussions, do you think World Cup 2011 taken out of Pakistan is a right decision?

Amabel

Sad but yes...

Lafanter

i think its a right decision

nahy to wo baat ho jaty, 'Aa bail, mujhay mar'

sara

Yes, it's a right decision taken !

AQ

logically yes...

but when I think from a perspective of a pakistani, I think it's not the right decision...

our govt. failed the first time during the SL team visit....

World Cup is an enormous world event... This is where nation would have the chance to see whom they brought on the pedastal of authority...

This also gives opportunity to the govt. to prove that they are capable of handling the country.... Nation needs to know all that....

Amabel

but they aren't....... for the obvious reasons.


I understand what you mean but its just too risky - not only for others lives but also if something happens - it'll be over for us for atleast half a century.

AQ

The problem with it, is that such statements give evidence to those who point fingers at Pakistan bad mouthing everything about it... do we agree with them?

Amabel

^ No. We don't agree with them. But we can't ignore the fact. lets face it - our govt is not capable of doing anything right. Whatever is happening in PK.... is a proof.
