No backing out of Pakistan tour: SLC
Karachi: Sri Lanka Cricket Chief Executive Duleep Mendis said his board would consult the players before finalising the Pakistan tour itinerary but made it clear that there was no question of backing out of the series.
Mendis dismissed reports that the delay in finalisation of itinerary was due to Sri Lankan players being reluctant to tour Pakistan.
“We have already confirmed to our Pakistani counterparts that we will be touring their country. We will definitely honour our commitment. Reports of our possible pullout from the tour are not true,” Mendis told Geo News.
“There are a few things which we’re discussing with the PCB and our players and then we’ll finalise the itinerary, may be in few days ... I would say in a couple of days .... but the tour is definitely on,” Mendis said.
Sources say the Lankan authorities want a confirmation from their players on the number of matches they would play in Pakistan and the financial details for the tour as it is not part of the Future Tour Programme of the ICC. — PTI
