Zimbabwe to continue Pakistan tour despite 'suicide bomb' | |
2015-05-31 | |
[DAWN] Zim-bob-we said on Saturday it will continue its cricket tour of Pakistain despite an apparent suicide kaboom leaving two people dead outside the stadium during a match between the two sides. Friday's kaboom -- which the information minister said was a suicide kaboom, though police insist it was an accident --
The blast, which did not affect the match itself, triggered a news blackout in Pak media and came despite heavy security in and around Lahore's Qadaffy Stadium. The visitors' decision to play on means the two sides will face off in the third and final one-day international at the same venue on Sunday. Pakistain has so far won all of the matches in the series -- two Twenty20 meets and two earlier one-day internationals. | |
