: ccAustralia’s tour of Pakistan still hangs in a balance as CA is awaiting a report from analysts on the security situation in Pakistan in the wake of recent widespread violence. “There will be lots of safety and security measures put in place and there will be all sorts of security checks done throughout Pakistan over the next few weeks to let us know as a player group if it is safe to tour or not. If it’s seen to be safe and you don’t go, then I think that’s where the breach of your contract would be,” Ponting said.Andrew Symonds had said earlier that he would not tour Pakistan before coming up with “the door is still ajar” on Thursday. “Andrew’s been pretty public about a lot of his views over the Pakistan tour in the last few weeks.
“The rest of us have all got our concerns, CA have obviously got their concerns. I just think it was a little bit unfortunate he was out doing a promotional appearance just before the auction took place yesterday. And it is not the first time he has said it, he said it earlier in the year as well. We all understand his feelings about touring Pakistan,” Ponting said.
