2009 Revisited: Vaas And Lakmal Recall Lahore Terror As Current Squad Face Security Concerns On Pak Tour: Report
Pakistan Cricket Board: Two former Sri Lankan cricketers, who survived the 2009 Lahore terror attack, have warned members of the current squad, facing security concerns following a suicide bomb blast in Islamabad, that it will be no easy task to “get on with the game” after initially deciding to fly home.
While describing their ordeal following a terror attack on the team bus during the 2009 tour of Pakistan as a “horrifying moment”, Sri Lanka's pace great Chaminda Vaas and all-rounder Suranga Lakmal advised the players to be strong and careful, a report said on Thursday.
Sri Lanka’s team bus came under heavy gunfire on the way to day three of the Lahore Test in 2009, leaving several players and an umpire injured. Several policemen who were providing security for the team were killed in the attack. The tour was abandoned, the shaken squad airlifted from an army base to Colombo, and Pakistan was frozen out of hosting international cricket for almost a decade.
