India Shouldn't Go To Pakistan For Champions Trophy: Harbhajan Supports BCCI's Decision
The veteran bowler also backed the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) decision to seek the government's approval for the visit before confirming their participation in the tournament. The Indian board has refrained from commenting on the issue and said the country's government will decide whether to travel to Pakistan.
"Why should the Indian team go to Pakistan? There is a safety concern in Pakistan. The situation in Pakistan is such that incidents occur almost every day. I don't think it's safe (for the team) to go there. The stance of the BCCI is absolutely correct and nothing is more important than the safety of our players. I support BCCI's stand," Harbhajan told IANS on Thursday.
