Malik said he was even willing to update the Aussies about the security situation whenever they wanted. “The security in Pakistan is very good. I would be happy to speak to the Australian players if they would like to know what is happening here,” he said.
Malik’s views were echoed by former Pakistan captain Imran Khan who said there was no danger for touring cricketers. “I don’t think the cricketers have any threat at all,” he told a Melbourne radio station.
“This is not going to last two months when the Australians appear. In the context of cricket, there will be nothing to worry about if the tour is in March. I don’t think the Australians should have any worries,” he said.
