With all these so-called expert reports your never going to get you something that says the place to 100% safe or potential not safe to play. If people can live in these countries and perform their normal lives then there will always be a good chance the tour will go off without any problems. Though all it takes is a couple incidents and the place to meant to be unsafe. But how can you make an assessment in one day, that just stupid.

Still can't understand how anyone can say Pakistan is safer then Sri Lanka. You might not get targeted specifically. But a lot more people die every day in Sri Lanka and you have as much chance of getting caught up in collateral damage, as you do in a targeted attack in Pakistan.

The whole thing is double standards at it best. Part of me hopes something happens in Sri Lanka, to just show how stupid they are. If they force the tournment out of Pakistan for no good reason. But I wouldn 't wish that on anyone.
