Cricketers’ safety not guaranteed: ICC chief

SYDNEY The International Cricket Council says it can't guarantee the safety and security of international cricketers in any part of the world following the Lahore terrorist attack. ICC chief executive Haroon Lorgat said on Sunday that the well-orchestrated attacks on the Sri Lanka team's convoy in Pakistan last Tuesday had forever changed the sporting world's landscape. When asked if the ICC was unable to ensure player security at the 2011 World Cup scheduled for the subcontinent, he replied: ‘That would be the attitude to any event anywhere in the world.' Lorgat said the ICC will issue a more extensive response to the Lahore attack, in which six police officers and a bus driver were killed and seven players and a coach wounded, most of them not seriously.
