ODI Series Against Pakistan in UAE As On Schedule - CA

Melbourne: Not withstanding the terror attack on Sri Lankan cricketers in Lahore, Cricket Australia has decided to go ahead with the One-day series against Pakistan in the United Arab Emirates but said a final decision will be taken after receiving report from its security experts.

Australia are supposed to play five One-dayers and a Twenty20 match against Pakistan at Abu Dhabi and Dubai between April 22 and May 7.

"We're scheduled to play against Pakistan in the UAE starting in late April, at this stage that tour will go ahead as planned," CA CEO James Sutherland said.

Sutherland added that steps would also be taken to put the players under more security cover.

"That's way too far ahead to be predicting the future. The 2011 World Cup is two years away, there's a lot to happen between now and then. Needless to say, there would obviously be security concerns about Pakistan, who are one of the four host nations for the 2011 World Cup. Let's see how that unfolds," said Sutherland.
