No team ready to visit Pakistan: Sethi

LAHORE: Pakistan Cricket Board Interim chairman Najam Sethi has said that no cricket team was ready to visit Pakistan as security concerns were a major impediment to international cricket in the country in the face of law and order situation.
Talking to media at the Lahore Airport , he said that no team was even ready to listen to Pakistan, let alone consider visiting after 2009 terrorists attack on Sri Lankan team.
"I have discussed plans with West Indian and English cricket officials for unofficial tours," he added.
Najam Sethi said that a panel of foreign lawyers would be constituted to lessen Muhammad Amer's ban. He, however, added that Salman Butt's confession had no importance.
Responding to a question, he said that he was only an interim PCB chief and would relinquish the charge after resolving the issues the cricket body was facing.
